I don’t know, what does a mockingbird sound like?

If his soul could be captured without a black soul gem, that implies that Mr. Beast is not even human at all, but some mysterious creature capable of mimicing the human form.

I suppose the name was a bit of a dead giveaway, huh?

It’s AI

Clearly someone’s never been horny on main…

So… how do they plan to sell this idea to companies that require their employees to sign into their corporate VPNs when they’re on the job?

I mean, this is Lemmy, I wouldn’t be surprised if the average age is above 30

I’ve seen the stereotype of Altima owners being bad/dangerous drivers around the internet a few times, and I’m curious as to how it developed… The Altima always struck me as a pretty typical mid-size sedan, so I’m not sure what about it would attract a higher proportion of bad drivers over other similar vehicles, or why people would zero in on bad Altima drivers over anyone else.

Since I’ve learned of the stereotype, I have periodically noticed Altima drivers doing stupid things, but I also see a lot of Altimas and a lot of dumb drivers in general, so I haven’t been able to tell if the incidence of bad drivers in Altimas is higher than the norm.

Yeah, pretty much. It was originally geared towards evangelical Christians, and while it was critical of Trump at first, it eventually turned fash around 2020 or so. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Babylon_Bee

Javascript’s type coercion is rather insane, yes, but there is an actual, practical reason it’s done. JS, having been designed to be run in web browsers, wants to avoid blowing up and crashing at all costs. If it gets an unusual type comparison, usually the result of a bug, it tries to return something, such that the script can continue running if at all possible. In JS’ mentality, keeping a page running, even if it might not completely function properly, is preferable to throwing an unhandled exception and completely crashing it.

Whether or not that is the right approach is debatable, but there is at least some logic to it. Personally, I think that the proliferation of Node letting JS run outside of browsers exacerbates a lot of JS’ issues, but TypeScript does a lot to make it look like a more sensible language.

I like how RealD looks well enough, but the glasses tended to give me a mild headache after a while. I’ve been able to wear VR headsets without much issue in the handful of times I’ve been able to try them, so maybe that would work better, but I don’t think I’ve actually worn one for multiple hours at a time, so who knows.

The thing that I think a lot of people forget about the first Avatar is that it was pretty much the first big blockbuster to be available with those RealD 3D glasses. I distinctly remember wanting to go see it so I could check out RealD and find out if it lived up to the hype.

Of course, it had the James Cameron name recognition, so it was probably going to be pretty successful regardless, but I don’t know if it would have been quite so record-shattering if it weren’t for the novelty of RealD, combined with the higher ticket price of 3D showings.

They didn’t seem to fill quite the same role as modern generals, as we usually saw them leading troops into battle directly rather than overseeing large strategic battle groups or delegating orders to subordinates, but even in the films, the Jedi were directly referred to as generals during the Clone Wars.

“General Kenobi!”

Every now and then I see something from the Babylon Bee when they’re not being expressly political, and it makes me think they could be maybe a halfway okayish humor site if they weren’t so grossly hateful and bigoted most of the time…

I like the idea of Scaled, but last I tried it, most of the posts were one-pointers and it didn’t feel that much functionally different from New.

Even Master Yoda doesn’t have a space weed count that high!

Yes, because the Hutts would be totally cool with a couple of Jedi rolling up to their gambling dens and blatantly cheating for several hours. Screwing over one random used car salesman on a single bet is much easier to get away with.

Not to mention the whole “he could be the chosen one” angle, at which point freeing Anakin was just as important to Qui-Gon as getting off-planet.

…Me? Overthinking a silly meme? Noooo…

Does that even count as a punchline? Man, not all of C&H aged particularly well…

I’m stateside, and I torrented something once without a VPN and got an email complaint from my ISP not long after.
