It's crazy that DeSean Jackson put out a (fake) Hitler quote and hasn't been fired.

Mickey Rooney and Mr. Yunioshi

Now Nick is demanding an apology for being fired, this should get interesting.

Pro move: wrestle the Glock away. Leave the taser.

Boops computer is workig

For a second I read that as "screaming is the future"

@ChaChaRealSmooth screaming is the present.

I think the man can be disappointed.

You could always keep the naming convention and simply swap the list content - so blacklist would become the whitelist & vice-versa. White guilt solved.

Some software projects have been working to change those terms in their software and APIs. But if you use a library that uses those terms it is difficult to change them unless the library also makes those changes. https://thenextweb.com/dd/2020/06/15/github-plans-to-replace-racially-insensitive-terms-like-master-and-whitelist/

Male/Female for connectors can also be awkward to explain to a coworker from a different country. Why is the cable called "male"?

i love blast from the past gaming vids. here is one i recorded when i was 14 https://youtu.be/g9AbddZ0Y9c?t=141

Here I am after winning the first official Halo tournament. I'm "Pulse" in the middle. http://halo.bungie.org/misc/aftermath.html

18 years later and I've been making video games for... >16 years.

Quake 3 is love and life.

You have friends nearby who can help. We should visit @shaizada's place. He's got several TT setups. Or wait until I get my place in order.

I can't think of any good reason why it's $1k, other than they know iPhono2 buyers spent $549 and won't think iPhono3 is an upgrade unless it's significantly more expensive. But I'm a cheap bastard

Loaner tour of the iFi Phono3 ? Or a micro vinyl meet perhaps? would be fun to hear the difference of phonos in a well tuned system.

I am one of these people who strongly dislike Audeze LCDs besides LCD4 which I haven't heard. So what, I don't care if you agree or not. Your decision. Some like LCDs a lot. Great.

lol Lyander, that whole thread managed to not even mention the drama over the knockoff drivers in the Solaris

@SoupRKnowva oh crap I completely forgot that was a thing too. Was this very much after the offhand comments cuz I vaguely remember there being a gap between those flare ups.

Ok boomer, :p

That is their job. It is called entertainment. Often times annoying...

Branding this thing "autopilot" is downright irresponsible, though. Think of it more like Cruise Control 2.0 and you'll do fine. But it's easy to become "switched off" driving on a freeway. That's also why other vehicles are slow to react as @bixby pointed out.

The driver said he assumed the autopilot would work. That's why we see the tufts of smoke on the brakes when the car was about to hit the truck. The driver realized the autopilot wasn't doing anything, and when he hit the brakes, it was too late!

I was very quickly disabused of my "full self-driving" hopes when making a trip down from the bay to socal last year -- supposedly a route they'd have some of the richest data on.

Haven't turned it on since and definitely won't trust it with stop signs or traffic lights for at least a few years. Agree that the branding unfortunately encourages over-reliance and poor driving behaviors.

@crenca what happened with the ar?

@DEATHxMACHINE, a textbook example of how if it ain't muscle memory, your SOL because higher level thinking is just not present. For example, at one point I somehow managed to release the (full, metal) magazine, where it struck with a corner on the top of my bare foot

I spent a couple of hours the next day cleaning up the blood I trailed through the entire house. A real intruder probably could have casually strolled from room to room killing my entire family, before even getting to me. I wish there was a video of the experience, it could serve as a demo at the beginning of a rifle class... ;)

Does that mean you think it's good or bad?

That new album is good. No question about it.

Having worked on project Ara I still can't get over the name.

Apparently Ara is a name that originates from either Egypt or Arabic, and means "brings rain."

^ Or in Maori, take your pick of these (most commonly 'path' tho): https://maoridictionary.co.nz/search?&keywords=ara

And here an unknown neighbor snitched on another neighbor having a kid's b-day party on their front lawn with no extra guests... luckily it seems like police just told people to go back inside.

Enjoy! Don’t forget to take off your mask before you eat.

In TX if the police came and told us to go inside from "our front lawn" we'd tell him to GTFO. My private property, no laws being broken, not even having guests (although we could).

But we highly value personal rights … AND personal responsibility.

Of course we'd be nice about telling him GTFO, though.

That bad, huh? I’ve put off watching ep9 after the train wreck that was ep8. Back to the bottom of the list it goes.

How bad is it? I feel asleep during the last one and woke up when the chick and the Smiths fan were killing the alien dude with Luke ghost.

Not a surprise to be honest.

At least someone from Amir's camp will buy it off you.

@Dash Contra is an easy game on NES. No need for the code.

Bet I'm having a better time evaluating a Modi 3 than you are the D70
