There’s still a few days left to file comments objecting to the change. Link in the article.

Ten movies streaming across that, that Internet, and what happens to your own personal Internet? I just the other day got… an Internet was sent by my staff at 10 o’clock in the morning on Friday. I got it yesterday. Why? Because it got tangled up with all these things going on the Internet commercially. They want to deliver vast amounts of information over the Internet. And again, the Internet is not something that you just dump something on. It’s not a big truck. It’s a series of tubes. And if you don’t understand, those tubes can be filled and if they are filled, when you put your message in, it gets in line and it’s going to be delayed by anyone that puts into that tube enormous amounts of material, enormous amounts of material.

Still waiting for ISO timestamp support in OmegaStar.

They’re too close! explodes

OP looks more like fabric. I don’t have access to the kind of printer that could make what’s shown.

It also looks like it loops around the back? I don’t know if sun-visors are standard enough to make a generic fit, or if this is a custom job.

Where can I buy this?

UTC has leap seconds. We can do better. PTP/TAI for lyfe.

A perfectly logical clock would use a radio broadcast to count off seconds since a predefined epoch. Put a few of them way up high, so more people can see it, and make them so astonishingly precise that you could tell where you are just by listening.

Imagine a large rock, suspended by helicopters a few miles up in the air.

Now drop the rock. How fast is it going when it hits the ground?

The same thing is true for a rock falling from space, but more so. Regardless of initial conditions: if it ever contacts the ground, it will be moving at least 11 kilometers per second.

Miss Fisher got tired solving all these murders at home, so she goes on a beach vacation. Guess what happens? (It’s murder.)

Who could have predicted that hanging ten conflicting kernel-level anti-cheat installations might cause compatibility problems?

Yes, they were organic dyes. At the time, those were the only kind. Maybe it’s gotten better over the years.

This is terrible advice. Most writable DVDs degrade quickly, even if they’re stored away from sunlight and heat. Every single one of my burned DVDs from more than a few years back is completely unreadable.

Update: I missed the very important line about M-DISC. This is critical. I can’t vouch for M-DISC personally, but most other optical media is garbage for archival purposes.

In this case, I knew it because of a “botanicals” set that I assembled recently.

Those sets use a lot of pieces in creative ways, often in unusual colors. In particularly obscure cases, like this crown or the rose petals that were originally from a car fender, the manual will include a brief trivia callout.

I remembered the callout, and that was enough to find it by keyword on the fan database sites.

Ah yes, the 39262 minifigure crown, also used as a flower.

This is basically “Weekend at Bernie’s”, using the likeness of a dead man as a puppet.

It would be obvious the moment he opens his mouth. That stupid word salad is instantly recognizable.

Bulletproof? Sounds dangerous. What do I do if it makes a weird noise?

I switched to Ubuntu a few months ago, and all my Steam games work just fine. Never looking back.
