Biden has a single desire keeping him alive - to piss on that fucker's grave. We're all rooting for you, sir.
"...and such small portions!"
The only AI image tool I would use is one that makes it look like I painted over the original AI image with MSPaint.
Even if this is just the dress rehearsal, let's give it all we've got.
Nobody understood this amazing joke, and that's their loss.
"Hey Janelle, have you ever been mistaken for a man?" "No, have you?"
This isn't Even my "final Form". Thankyou for your attention on this matter.
I mean yeah kinda. Remember, they started that project before any of us even started looking at VR. They had to have all the bad ideas first. ALL the bad ideas. Literally every single one.
That's actually Bioshock's Elizabeth all grown up. Such a showoff.

I’ve peaked. Leaving Bluesky now
Amazing.
Almost every bit of US gun legislation has been a disaster. The receiver is the gun - really? The "silencer" panic. The SBR wackiness. All those laws around "look and feel" rather than actual effectiveness.
Ah, I see. You know - I'm no expert - but it seems to me if there's one place you don't want to half-ass the law, it's assault weapons. And yet...
Keisling: real prog, like Led Zeppelin. Barker: Zeppelin is NOT prog, how dare you! Keisling: Misty Mountain Hop. Achilles Last Stand. Ramble On. Barker: I won't hear such heresy. Keisling: prog.
Heh. Just looked it up, and in fact the president that banned bumpstocks was that killjoy hippy Donald Trump.
It's interesting that as soon as bumpstocks got common, they changed the law very quickly to ban them. There's all this bleating about 2A and blah blah, but they can and will change the law if they want to. But of course it depends who's running the country at the time whether they will.
It is just a 22. He'd probably survive.
Does anybody know if its possible for friends pass in steam to work with steam's game invites? A game invite from the full game, tells the gamepass version to buy the full game. Works if they use an invite code... Anybody know how this is meant to work?

Bizarrely good tour of a standard UK service station, which is also a parody of a late-70s sci-fi series: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Euk...
In the UK there is the concept of a "service station" which is a gas station, a restaurant, a bunch of shops, in an organised blob of shops and parking etc. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorwa... For some reason the US doesn't really have that except informally when Starbucks opens next to a gas station.
HINT HINT.
That's a lot of callbacks! Also, neat when the video version has some crossover sound effects.
Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑
Indeed. In theory you can get away without blacK, but in practice C+M+Y doesn't produce a solid enough black.
not just that he has no constitutional authority, there isn't even any particular legal or institutional mechanism by which the president can make anyone treat this as anything other than a weird advisory opinion.
Using this piece by @reallygoodwizard.bsky.social in my introductory lectures for my design students.
Looks amazing! I just spent two days driving sideways. It's so rewarding for us digital nerds to get some real-life fun.
Gary Numan is 13 days older than Gary Oldman.

Yeah, since my tactic for night missions was always to load out with phos, set everything on fire, and shoot at the screaming - TFTD just didn't do it for me.
nothing like a saturday of labor day weekend newsdump, but no time like the present: I wrote a book, and it’s available for pre-purchase! linktr.ee/artbutmakeit...
Actually just one, but from two different timelines.
Bridges! I'm referring to bridges. Civil engineering. I should maybe read what I write before hitting send...
Given how he walks normally, it's hard to tell.
Best game to play: StarTopia. Best tech: Oculus display stack Biggest impostor sense: Larrabee/AVX512 (vimeo.com/450406346) Most fun at the time: Rec Room
Likewise. Though your hardware was a lot bigger than mine.
This is why I dual-class atheism with Satanism as a minor. Sure, you don't get the full benefits of your primary, but every now the backup sure comes in handy.
People saying Trump is dying or possibly dead, but I for one would urge caution, because it is quite possible a second healtbar will appear as he enters his second phase and a gargantuan centipede will burst forth from his torso, so be careful of his new sweep attacks and toxic buildup from bites.
CORPOTUS
RFK Jr. taps his top deputy, Jim O’Neill, to be the new CDC director. Both men appear to wear skinny ties from Otaa. Otaa's ties are made in China from microfiber, a kind of plastic that, under the right conditions, can migrate to your balls.
I paid sixty dollars for No Man's Sky nine years ago and they refuse to stop making the video game. I've begged them to go home to their families but they won't stop adding new kinds of weird little guys and like, optimizing the gentle patter of rain on an alien ocean. Please let me pay for a DLC
I have followed and loved Dan's work for over a decade at this point, but I have never felt a stronger kinship with him creatively than I have in this two second clip
I think it's an ignorant typo. The actual units are: Scalar: ton Area: tonn Cubic: tonne
The hospital later made a proper database for a squillion dollars, but we defined the spec!
I didn't really know what I was doing, but it was the first electronic database & analysis program in the hospital - his previous "database" was a big paper ledger book. My sister also earned some money by typing the data from that ledger into the database.
My first professional project was a patient database for my father, written in BASIC on an Amstrad 1512 with dual floppy disks and no hard drive.
Anything before Y2K doesn't count.
Trying to use maths is of course a trick question. Never ever do "maths" with FPS. They're not real, they will always fool you. Convert to milliseconds. These are real! Then to do maths on them.
Hacker Of Negotiable Virtue.
For non-VR, I would say 48, mainly because 60->120 is a far subtler difference than 30->60. 1/30 = 33.33ms 1/120 = 8.33ms Therefore the midpoint for a graphics programmer is 20.8333ms, which is indeed 48.
I guess technically I was a hardware architect for 10 of them in the middle there. Although I was still writing a bunch of code, for money, so...
Just realised I have been a professional programmer for almost 40 years now! Crazy.
People say LISP is the language the gods wrote the universe in, and indeed complex LISP programs also always end in a giant stream of )))))))) (LISP stands for "Lots of Irritating Silly Parentheses")
...and wants to deport all the people who are willing to do the work.
What the fuck is a “cubic ton”
We wanted Data, we got Drunk Troi.
I don't know the one you mean, so I guess I haven't, so probably just coincidence.
I like the Salem slant on the "Limelight" genre (i.e. being a rockstar is pretty fucked up).
A higher resolution pic than my screenshot that captured the salute, from Alyssa Pointer (Reuters) – press weren’t allowed past the front gate for security reasons.
Nothing says you have utmost confidence in the supreme leader's health like giving an interview where you express utmost confidence in the supreme leader's health and discuss your surprisingly extensive thoughts about the succession plans that absolutely won't be needed for many thousands of days.
Boom tomorrow.
Well fuck now it's not cool any more gotta jump to next thing.
This is some of the hardest shit I've seen in my life
My game "Replicube": Code, Logic, and Math never looked so TASTY🍉 25% off on Steam right now to celebrate back to school! s.team/a/3401490
More context. Before we had memes, we had adverts:
This also forms the basis for my system of wizardry. A magic-user is someone who can choose exactly when and where (or if) a waveform is observed. Gandalf's just really good at keeping his eyes shut until the exact right moment.
Huge "JavaScript was created in 10 days" energy. Love it.
Skip to 4:44 to make me feel smug. There are dozens of us! Dozens!

Do I know anyone who works at Keen Games on here?
Robin and Peter-Pike are essential reading for sure.
Welcome! You just missed the weird hot weather. It's now about average, fortunately.
Real metal! www.youtube.com/watch?v=7L7-...
Brown is also not a real colour. Don't listen to the trees - liars every one.
I hope this works with larva as well.
Imagine the determination of something trying to get past those spikes. This must have been the most delicious dinosaur ever.
There is lots of hope to be had in this old world, even during the darkest of times. www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...
Can you do rats while you're about it? Adorable little critters, but gone too soon.
What part of "terrible" and "fringe" did you not understand?
Purple isn't a real colour. Point at purple on the rainbow - you can't. Band this sick filth! (violet is cool though - totally real)
How you dune, messiah?
Get as much as he can before what, Donald? Going anywhere soon? I hate to jump to conclusions, but it sure sounds like increasingly he wakes up every morning, gazes into the mirror, and contemplates his mortality with dread. Good.
Can't rewind - we've gone too far :-(
Horses? No, apes! Giant apes. But they're all gone. All my apes - gone.
How soon do you wait until you fill the holes in again?
"But how do you sustain rampant racism without everybody being armed to the teeth?"
It's getting harder and harder to deny that AGI is a near certainty. This kind of rapid expansion, this level of investment and infrastructural shift, this amount of *risk* - it doesn't happen without astronomical reward. The other day I saw a big barn, which can only mean one thing: giant horses
This hurts my brain. That's not how it works - that's not how any of this works. Why did someone make this? What?
ICE took 2 firefighters OFF THE FUCKING FIRE LINE!?
OMG I misread it like that too. Time to go get some glasses.
RKF Jr. is a dangerous man who is determined to abuse his authority to act on truly terrifying conspiracy theories and disinformation—leaving us unprepared for the next deadly pandemic and snuffing out potential cures while he’s at it. My full statement.
How are they still alive? Impressive.
