GPT-3 post? This rabbles with no direction and feels like something AI would write. There's also an odd jump at the end like it's trying to talk about gaming/MtG but doesn't at the same time.

Tell me you don't understand memes without telling me you don't understand memes. Memes != Jokes. A meme is a repeated and iterated phenomenon be it a picture, phrase, video, image or thought. Just because it isn't funny (to

Sarcasm? While I don't read German, this is actually a pretty good design for a news site. It's clean, consistent and uncluttered. It loads quickly and doesn't have any obnoxious animations or advertising. The font choice is

>Now a long approach of gradual decriminalization and legalization may work, with the ability to operate legally the need to utilize violence decreases over time as it's generally bad for business. For the record I'm pro-legali

This is absolutely not going to be the case. Assuming both the US and Mexico simultaneous legalized all drugs, what happens to all the illegal jobs the cartels currently have? Their people, money and weapons don't vanish and what we se

I'd disagree that the military issues are subjective, as of 0.44.x dwarves still put on a random assortment of what you assign them, normally missing something important like a right gauntlet or a shield.

Have you tried typing on a Kindle keyboard? As a Kindle DX user, it has always been a terrible experience and now the letters have rubbed off so it's even worse - the symbol and and number keys are accessed via a 'SYM' cont

A surface isn't a tablet, it's a laptop with a touch screen. I've tried them and they are really nice as laptop but they fallback to a finger hostile UI way to often to be called tablets.

Err, no it's not: Individuals with exploding head syndrome hear or experience loud imagined noises as they are falling asleep or waking up. I experience GP's comment as well and it's from real sounds.

>This is fine with most customers who prefer buying the same jeans for $60 and wait to paying twice as much and having them instantly. This probably hits closest core of this issue. It's not 10% cheaper to buy overseas it's 15%

Pretty cool. But I'll eat my hat if a regular webcam can pick up enough detail in regular lighting to do this. Plus 90% of the time the webcam will capture a users chest and the wall behind them, hardly useful for visual microphones.

Source? I'd hazard a guess that it's likely only marginally more accurate than lip reading?

This, unless you are going to open up every device around you and physically isolate all audio recording equipment, I fail to see how covering your webcam is much more than security theatre?

Interesting that's likely a location thing. Also I'd question < 10mph over isn't speeding, assuming even a 60mph speed limit you're allowing drivers to travel at over 10% faster than posted. Depending again on locatio

Seriously? This is easily the worst argument against bicycles I see bought up again and again. Next time you're driving count how many people you see breaking the law be it bicycle, pedestrian or motor vehicle. Now count how many you s

Car ads aren't fake already? Half the ads I see feature CG cars driving an endless blank whiteness or through similarly impossible landscapes. This looks like a sweet way to shoot car scenes for movies, I wonder if it can take a roll-c

Defamation law suits are important for curtailing shock-jock journalism, without them journalists are ultimately free to lie about someone and report it as fact.

Not sure about the rest of the world but all* Australian supermarkets have a socks and undies section where you can pick up a 3 pack of black (or white) socks for about $9AUD. *All in this case being the two major companies.

Interesting being Australian I don't have a 5th amendment to protect me. Also my understanding is that at least in Australia you'd likely be charged with obstruction of some sort, does that not fly in the US?
