The best smelling one.

TIL thanks

I assumed they were generally against the concept of sex not strictly for the purpose of reproduction.

I’m aware. Just funny that you can’t have sex for fun apparently when you’re pregnant.

While not every player is not privy to the nightmare of every person in their game becoming with child, those who have the bug are finding a large number of Sims randomly marked as pregnant.

Who the fuck wrote this?

Once a character is pregnant, they can’t Woo-Hoo anymore,

Never pegged The Sims for being so Puritain.

Old Spice was not long for this woeld.

Based on the description, my guess is that the script solved the problem of having the line interrupted by only doing a single 56k transaction per phone call.

Lots of times, phone calls were billed $$$ for the first minute and $ for every minute after that. If her script only did one transaction per call and not even using the full minute, that could add up fast.

And, given that it took a month for the bill to come, she could have been doing something wrong even during the day. Nobody would have noticed until the bill, and the 1am calls stood out the most when the bill finally came. Maybe there was a local exchange that didn’t require long distance?

Also from this fine media establishment:

• Warning: 73% of garden soil contains hidden drain chemicals affecting families for 18 months
• I tried this 2-ingredient summer mask at 53 and my dark spots faded 70% in 3 weeks (dermatologists explain why)
• Cold plunge warning: this 15-second exposure raises senior blood pressure by 40 mmHg

Also, for a writer named “John,” he seems to really like wearing women’s clothing

And I don’t know where he finds the time to get dressed considering he’s written 18 articles so far today some in just 14 minutes.

If I remember from my USB product design days, as long as they don’t include any of the official markings on the product or packaging, they’re in the clear.

many book scanners use a wedge shape and two angled cameras to scan the pages when the book is held open at about a 5 degree angle

A birdwatching friend of mine has decided that if he ever discovers a new species, he’s naming it “seagull” regardless of where he finds it or what it looks like just to piss off all the ornithologists.

Very well executed, though not sure how I feel about the glass plate squishing the pages down like that.

I saw this clip on eBaumsworld when I was like 12 and was overjoyed that we had finally done it and all the climate change stuff I learned about wasn’t going to be a problem.

The issue is not going up, it’s going over. If we only cared about the private sector getting people into space, that happened on a fully reusable vehicle twenty years ago.

The problem is getting things to stay in space. Not trying to Elon-stan here, but getting a rocket into orbit is many fold more difficult than just getting into space.

cosmetically tweaked

It would have to be super tweaked considering the phone you referenced has four cameras, and a notch style front camera.

My bet is that this is a 10 second photoshop job and the actual phone will look nothing like that.

I mean if you do a difference blend of two of the cameras, you get a perfectly black circle (minus some blending at the edges):

.

This means that the cameras are exact pixel-perfect copies of each other arranged in that order by photoshop. They don’t exist on any phone.

Love seeing that leash in a public park!

There were so many issues

• Final boss was lame and level leading to it was slow and tedious completely killing the momentum
• Camera system was wonky
• Rocket nozzle barely got any play
• Jet nozzle was too difficult to control to be useful outside of specific racing segments
• Pachinko machine physics were fucked
• The lily pad level was unfairly difficult
• There was no way to track which blue coins you found. Like even a grey coin marker for already collected coins would have been super helpful.
• The reward for getting blue coins was pathetic
• Yoshi was criminally underutilized. The whole juice mechanic was used like twice.

The whole thing just felt rushed. Like there was another third of the game that they didn’t get to make.

Super Mario Sunshine. I thought it was just hard as a kid. Come to learn it’s fucking broken.

Not so much overheating as dropout. Batteries lose both energy capacity and power capacity over time. If you draw too much current from an older battery, its voltage will drop significantly and possibly prematurely shut down the phone.

Lowering peak current (by slowing down the phone), can prevent your phone from shutting off while it still has like 20% capacity left.

Considering Apple was doing battery replacements for like $60 (before bumping to $100), and this was a setting that could be turned off, I think the only real crime was enabling it by default and not properly informing users.
