I'd be more offended that they were looking at AI porn, to be honest.

This is the only correct answer; we had another day and it was taken from us.

Minecraft itself is really easy to pirate; if you don't mind it not being open source you could just do that.

Or maybe they were just bored, and wanted to make a cool new celestial object called a black hole.

All you people casually interspersing regular posts with porn in your feed scare me. My account had NSFW disabled when I made it, and I've never turned it on.

That thumbnail though... The forbidden Minecraft paintings.

Nice, not worth $150 though lol.

Dang, everyone else here has 4 or 5 figures while I'm sitting at $101. And I know for a fact 40% of that was Kerbal Space Program.

Regardless of what religion you follow, you're going to some hell for disregarding a different one.

import { fourier, relativity } from "../utils";

Might want to be careful importing Fourier; he might be classified as an illegal immigrant.

"Hmm"

I'm guessing how that goes is you pay them, they do actually make you a page, it gets quickly deleted for not meeting Wikipedia's standards, and then they go "sorry no refunds". Step 0 to getting a Wikipedia page about yourself is to be notable enough for one, which >99.9% of people are not.

TIL I am very bad at estimating the value of coins.

Guys fusion power is just 5 years away guys we're almost at breakeven bro just give us another billion venture capital dollars we just need some stronger magnets cmon we're so close dude just a little bit more

Probably just what their hiring algorithm spat out, or a market average, or something.

$13.76

yyyy-mm-dd is specified by ISO 8601, so there's really no argument it isn't the objectively correct format.

Dang, that didn't federate to my instance. Their math seems to check out too.

Some rough calculations:

5 leagues ≈ 15 mi ≈ 24.1 km. An average human has hair that's maybe 20 cm wide. Using the small angle approximation we get an angular size of 0.2/24100 ≈ 8.3x10^-6 radians.

At 400 nm wavelength, resolving details of that angular size requires an aperture of 1.22(400 nm / 8.3x10^-6) ≈ 5.88 cm.

So either Legolas has some absolutely massive eyes, has the ability to use both his eyes for optical interferometry (I'm voting for this since it's the coolest), or is just plain magic.

At that point just... buy a camera? Phones are good for quick and convenient point and shoot, but if you're carrying a big lens around just carry a camera instead.
