  • Just because he's 78 now doesn't mean he couldn't have had dementia 12 years ago

    • HelloFutureMe's rewrite of Legend of Korea that would make it a good show, rather than the most-retcon-filled bullshit I've ever seen.
    • Mother's Basement's Happy Science Trilogy (look for "a cult made this anime", and strap the fuck in, because the 8th-dimensional spirit of Isaac Newton is here to convince you to pay some Japanese guy all of your money)
  • Sharks are older than the current rings of Saturn, and I'll bet that the e-ring (the one which is primarily made of ice spewed out of enceladus) has been around for significantly longer than we give it credit for.

  • I was just finishing the Card Against Humanity:

  • "The fleshy fun bridge"

  • Padme meme: "you mean all the availableram in the computer, right?"

    Anakin:

    Padme: "you mean all the available RAM in the computer, right?"

  • If you can't read a fucking em dash —already a commonly-used punctuation mark— without thinking the author must be AI, then you are both insufficiently trained —either in grammar or in how to use your own keybord— and bad at identifying AI responses.

  • Did you forget archivist of the united states?

    Edit: after doing a bit more digging, he apparently timed out and ceased being the archivist in February, but no other archivist has been named.

  • Never forget 1066.

  • Worth pointing out that, just as a chimpanzee may not be particularly knowledgeable on the matter of chimpanzees, and fascists are generally not very well-educated on the history of Fascism, asking a cable to explain itself to you may not lead to the outcome you desire (although this FireWire cable does seem to be capable of producing at least some level of output, and stringing two words together is indicative of a greater capacity for thought than, for instance, a fascist)

  • Is that a Djungelskog?

  • We all need to appreciate just how sick a world has to be for "Thank fuck for Charles deGaulle's insistence on nuclear proliferation and testing" to be a sentence literally any decent person would entertain.

  • Dayorder unperson NOEM. Rectify malquoted bb "$200M were never spent by Miniluv on thinkpol prolefeed, issue is blackwhite"

  • Secondary science

  • Two of the teachers in my department literally told me it was an Iranian false flag today.

  • I admit the possibility, but one of the primary complaints I remember reading about was the lack of "vroomvroom" noises, which are, I would contend, an integral part of the speed demon's enjoyment.

  • Ah, no, it's that the more efficient packing takes up less space, so the less efficient square is actually slightly larger than the other, compared to the smaller squares.

    If the smaller squares are identical in both sets, then the larger square in the less-efficient set will be slightly bigger than the larger square in the more efficient set.

  • However, the target demographic for EVs is either "person who feels some modicum of compassion and responsibility for the world in which they live" or "fascist fuck who knows that, if they went more than thirty miles per hour, you wouldn't be able to see the giant metal monstrosity they wave about in lieu of a dick and spine"

    Neither of these demographics have incentive to speed. One of them is solely performative, and wants to be noticed for their dick-waving, while the other would not be speeding 300+ times, because they are probably a decent person.

  • Since a link to a wiki article does not an explanation make:

    The optimal efficiency (zero interstitial space) is achieved when the ratio of the side length of the larger square to the sides of the shorter squares (let's call it the "packing coefficient") is precisely equal to the square root of the number of smaller squares. Hence why the case of n=25, with a packing coefficient of 5, is actually more efficient than the packing of n=17 given in the waffle iron, with a packing coefficient of 4.675. Since sqrt(25)=5, that case is a perfectly efficient packing, equivalent to the case of n=16 with coefficient of 4. Since sqrt(17)=4.123, the waffle packing (represented by the orangutan) above is not perfectly efficient, leaving interstices. However, the packing coefficient of the suboptimal solution (represented by the girl) is actually 4.707, slightly further from sqrt(17), and thus less efficient, leaving greater wasted interstitial space.
