I dislike the immediate jumping to “war, sabotage, destruction!” that happened in this article. Cable breakage happens quite often, and sometimes are caused by such menial things as sea debris, or at times, sharks chewing on them [1]. [1]

I’ve always found MSCHF very strange. They sell strange products for exorbitant amounts (see the series of boxes with keys in them,) and I theorize they may be a money laundering scheme. They even sold those big red boots for $350.00!!

I hope that this sets a standard for future textbooks/publications. I haven’t been able to grasp several concepts in math unless I was able to properly visualize it, which most modern textbooks do with a terribly compressed and unsatur

Humans can sense quite a few strange things. Like the smell of rain up to 100 parts per trillion.

Whenever I was about 9-10, I used to love reading books, and I read about 1-3 full novels a month. Whenever I graduated elementary school and went into middle school, the required reading that was assigned left me to have no more time readi

This has to be illegal, right? There’s no way this is allowed. It can’t be legally or morally correct to hold someone’s data, and when asked to remove that data from your servers via account deletion, ask for 20 dollars. Adobe does this too

I haven’t been to Red Lobster since 2019, and even during that trip the quality of the food was severely degraded from what I remembered it to be. Their garlicky biscuits were quite nice, though. What baffles me about this story is the fact

It was correctly able to identify several photos of my vacation to NC, down to the exact location where the photo was taken on the hiking trail. Pretty scary. Additionally, just to be sure, I used an EXIF data wiper to make sure it wasn’t p

I was able to get Counter-Strike 2 running on an iGPU of a fourth gen Radeon chip. Don’t remember the name, but I got barely 10FPS and it was unplayable, but it ran. And it was amazing.

Roblox has been on a constant downward trend. They’ve been doing some pretty awful stuff, including exploitation of children developers [0], unregulated market which encourages kids to gamble, lackluster moderation allowing kids to be haras

Happy birthday to the language that got me into software. Admittedly, BASIC as a language was quite limiting, and, well, basic. At least the flavor I was using. I made quite a few rudimentary games on my dad's old TRS-80 Color Computer

I briefly used Cyclic for my web hosting solution. It wasn’t great, it felt like their website was barely hanging on and took several seconds to load select pages of my dashboard. I guess they finally caved.

That seems like a problem of It’s Foss’ website, not Mastodon. If you’re hosting a presumably static website, a news website no less, it should be able to handle a spike of viewer influx if you make a viral article. Seems like they’re pinni
