New debate: if we’re going down the route of compressing animating images as if they were movies, why not just use a video format?

Sometimes I have to wear a duty belt. That duty belt has some heavy-duty pointy metal things stored on it. I’d just make sure my duty belt is nice and secure before I squeeeeeeze past.

Flawless.

Also Turkey, but less flavourful.

You of all people.

Something, something, descended from dinosaurs, something.

Without condoning… or condemning… I understand.

Almost certainly, which is lovely. Ohio plates are in the format ABC1234 but they’re issued alphabetically and IIRC they’re only up to K.

That reminds me that I used to live near a Lidl that piloted this. It was great! I bought reusable containers for milk, fruit juice, detergent, rice, cereal - there was so much, and the machines had a built-in scale that automatically zeroed when you put the container down so you paid for exactly what was dispensed.

I went back one week to find them disconnected. Apparently they have a problem with some of the locals coming in and drinking straight from the dispensers.

As I said to the other almost identical comment you made defending them and criticising everyone for not being as wise as you: you can’t buy Netflix for 107.88. That’s just not an price they sell anything. But you can buy a whole selection of products from these dicks for .88 prices, which is a fixed price they specifically picked. Not a coincidence, a deliberate and conscious decision. As you rightly said, most businesses would have picked a .99 price or even a whole dollar amount. These people picked .88. What kind of person picks .88?

Netflix do not sell a product that costs $107.88. There is no option to spend that amount on their website. No sniggering 4Chan gremlin set the price of Netflix to a number that is used as a call sign of Nazis.

These cunts have a whole menu of products that all have fixed prices that they specifically decided should end in 88. They could have rounded up or down to the nearest dollar, or use the same .99 price as everyone else, but they didn’t and, the more I read of these people, the less I’m thinking it’s accidental. And you’re defending them.

You want to criticise other people for their maths skills, maybe brush up on your reasoning skills first.

Uuuuhhhh… those prices… kinda have a, um, theme.

I see the issue compounding too. Back in February, 1Password raised subscription prices, taking effect at renewals from March 27. Individual plans went up 33 percent from $35.88 to $47.88 a year, and family plans went up 20 percent from $59.88 to $71.88

Now you’re taking the piste.

As someone in another thread pointed out, the Swedish government website has a section explaining - in English - exactly what a British citizen needs to do to remain in Sweden and it explains the routes to permanent residency and Swedish citizenship. The rules for remaining were made clear and these dumb fucks ignored them. No sympathy.

And complaining that the Swedes have followed the rules exactly as published is like complaining that they wear thick jumpers, make efficient furniture and drink coffee - it’s a stereotype that is also somewhat accurate and part of who they are. If these migrants want to make a foreign country their home they need to integrate themselves into that country’s culture and respect that country’s social norms.

The plan in the UK is to start charging road tax for EVs per-mile, though there’s ongoing discussions about how that will work in practise it’ll probably be based on the mileage recorded during the vehicle’s annual safety checks (“MOT Test”). This seems reasonable enough to me since ICE vehicles essentially pay per-mile based on the amount of fuel the owners buy.

That’s not a ThinkPad and I can’t even.

The M3 is being emulated in Excel with the LAMDA function. Timing is provided by one of those drinking bird toys.

It also ignores the fact that social media is now legacy media. It’s embedded, institutionalised, owned by disconnected elites, and actively manipulated by aspiring oligarchs.

I will be using that knowledge irresponsibly. Thankyou.

Now I’m wondering if there’s some heavily inbred guy out there constantly being accused of using AI for their selfies.
