I mean I can lift my entire bodyweight with just a couple of fingers, but that point aside, this isn't so strange. The bench presser stalls exactly when their muscles are just short overcoming gravity, any extra force--even a couple of

Just incredible. I read through it thinking there’d be a punchline, but no. Then it dawned on me. It’s AI slop.

What absolute hogwash. Can you criticize and ridicule your government? No? Not a democracy.

It’s not imagined though, I use my partner’s phone sometimes and every time I used it I thought it was broken because the UI jitter was so jarring at 60Hz. Actually I’m still not convinced her phone isn’t broken. Also her flashlight resets

SQLite has had a WAL (write-ahead log) since 2010. Admittedly, it is not the default. [1] [1] https://www.sqlite.org/wal.html

Objection! You don’t have Ace Attorney style court hearings at work where you can ”show the paper trail” as evidence?

Judging by how often people press the emergency stop button on the escalators where I live, I fear that relying on the sincerity of strangers (and their cars) is maybe not a viable solution.

It is interesting to note that the UK is asking for this superuser privilege while also infamously silencing a literal epidemic of child sexual abuse for fear of its optics (i.e., Rotherham). It’s a difficult sell for me that the police nee

It’s crazy though, why can’t hotels do this? I have stayed in apartment hotels, kitchen, living room, bed room. Nothing fancy, but so much better than a hotel precisely for the reasons you listed.

I did, every time it pops up, I go "I guess we're not reading that then" and close the article. It's not like I _need_ to know about some guy's opinions on SQLite3, it's just entertainment. It is optional.
