  • Please explain this to my not native speaker brain

  • IEEE

  • I still call it IEEE1394. I don't care about the naming bullshit of marking people. Engineers use numbers!

  • No one who has ever had their brain taken out has survived. Murder is just a side effect, they just need your big beautiful brain. I guess these guys are working for duolingo nowadays:

  • I guess it's some onion style website. The 20k fine made me not believe the story, otherwise it was totally believable, i know multiple guys who behave like this

  • Platypuses also can have a little salami

  • The lower photo is a BTS from the Great Train Robbery movie, from 1978:

    The photo of alleged drunken sailors, titled "Actors 'Sleeping' Draped Over Ropes" in the Getty Images archive, actually stems from the production of the film The Great Train Robbery (1978):

  • In the core2duo era I overclocked a cpu to 2.4GHz, and It killed the wifi in the computer similarly, it took a while to figure out why it was happening, and connect the 2 seemingly unrelated thing.

    Microwave ovens also work in the 2.4 GHz range, at one flat my torrents basically stopped when my neighbor used their oven.

  • A good example is to see what Varg Vikernes were doing while in prison:

    Burzum remained as a solo project until 1994, when Vikernes was arrested for the murder of Euronymous and the burnings of several churches in Norway. [...] While imprisoned, Vikernes managed to record two other albums in a dark ambient style. They were released as Dauði Baldrs (1997) and Hliðskjálf (1999). Both of these albums were created with a synthesizer, as Vikernes was prohibited from using any other instruments in prison.

  • That's an urban legend:

    Unlike what is implied in the gruesome folklore that has come to be associated with these advisories, their purpose was not to alert rescue workers to the presence of babies at accident scenes; they were instead supplications to other drivers to exercise additional care, reminders that they shared the road with vehicles carrying children.

  • Anyone?

  • Not all fingers, usually only 1 or 2. Now my left index and right thumb has these holes

  • Checked it with multiple reverse image search engines, and I can't find it anywhere before 2021. It was posted that time related to the other drive-by meme, I guess someone saw the new meme, and remembered Malcolm had a very similar scene 15 year earlier, searched the episode and made the screenshot.

    2005 was before these kind of labeled reaction memes even existed. Know Your Meme has 3 Malcolm memes documented, all of them started to spread more than a decade after they aired:

    1. The Future Is Now, Old Man 2002 vs 2016
    2. Once You Start There's No Going Back 2000 vs 2021
    3. Wow, I Can't Find a Flaw In His Logic 2000 vs 2013

    So even if this scene was used as a gif before 2021, its usage as a meme should came after the Umbrella Academy version was known

  • Wow, there is a Malcolm version of this meme!
