banana for rule 😔
  • Agreed. Another review has a picture holding it and it looks like typical banana size. That banana is just a banana of unusual size.

  • Rule
  • But that much root beer would raise the sea level! Then again it would make the sea near europe mildly root beer flavored for a while...

  • sucking balls rule
  • Frankly that sign would be A LOT weirder if they didn't

  • C++ try not to add footguns challenge (impossible)
  • It's good the core language now has to have a reason before it deletes shit. Speaking of, when do they add full garbage collection and call it c+++?

  • lonely rule
  • BDSM rules
  • Children should be kept further away from BDSM.

  • A dailykos article about a rawstory article about an nbc article about a newsguard article about how misinformation arose from a fourth-hand account.

  • surprise!
  • Oh man this has me feeling nostalgic

  • French rule
  • France is a lie schemed up by the British monarchy in the 1400s to reinforce traditional power structures via a common enemy.

  • Sony announces the $700 PS5 Pro
  • I was thinking between 7600 XT and 7700 XT or 4060 and 4060 TI.

  • Sony announces the $700 PS5 Pro
  • GPU alone would cost more than the console, if you’re building a pc.

    There's not many models that expensive. A comparable GPU to the PS5 Pro's is around half the cost

  • Better numeric types
  • I don't see the humor. Maybe the punchline takes a slong time

  • so my friend asked me to explain whats an rss feed
  • Something being "old" is totally unrelated to whether it's trendy. See: virtually every food and fashion trend.

  • Why YAML sucks?
  • I like yml. Clean to read, easy to use, supports comments.

  • Trans-Exclusionary Ruledical Mold
  • If terf queen's home is a "mouldy shack" then my house must be a cardboard box by the river (not even a van).

  • I wish my new water bottle contained an infinite supply of ice cold drinking water.
  • Granted, you have a nice full water bottle. As you open it, it starts spurting water that freezes as soon as it reaches rest. The shock of ice on your skin causes you to drop the bottle. Quickly the bottle is covered in a layer of ice except for where new water keeps jetting out. Before you know it your home is encased entirely in ice. A few weeks later it's your whole town.

  • What's the reason for high refresh rates?

    I was reading an article on the new LG display with a refresh rate of 7680Hz and it says:

    > While a typical refresh rate for a monitor might be 60Hz-240Hz, an outdoor display designed to be viewed from a distance needs to be much higher

    The idea that there's an intrinsic link between refresh rate and viewing distance is new to me and feels unintuitive. I can understand the need for high brighteness for far view distance. I also could understand refresh rate mattering for a non-persistent (CRT) display. But for an Led display surely you can see it far away even if it refreshes once a second?

    Refresh rate normally needs to be high enough to avoid pixels "jumping" between refreshes on high resolution displays, so wouldn't higher view distances allow you to decrease the refresh rate?

    Is the article just spouting bullshit? Or is there an actual link between refresh rate and view distance?

    SLPT: in a rush after a snowstorm? Skip brushing your car off by simply driving fast! The air will brush your car off for you.

    This can also save you shoveling/plowing your driveway, simply drive over the accumulated snow at high speed. Make sure to avoid getting stuck however.

    Who is a fictional character you most identified with?

    From TV, movie, book, fanfic, audio drama, cuneiform tablet, or whatever.

    SLPT: Striking out on tinder? Use AI to make you look attractive and give you the profile of someone with an actual personality.

    Before your first date go to an MMA dojo and insult anyone walking out so you have a cover for why you aren't like your profile.
