  • wow, and the bomb only needs a yield of 1620 times the largest nuclear bomb ever deployed.

  • i don't think any of those four fellows in the OP killed themselves, and in fact, they all lived to ripe old ages.

  • that line only appears straight because of the map projection being used. the one that appears curved is actually straight on a globe. you could construct a different projection that made that straight line appear straight (though other straight lines would thereby be distorted instead). latitude lines are not straight lines, and never have been, except the equator.

  • maybe it's to distinguish from all the other funky shaped tortilla chips you can get these days? like, there's ones that are little strips, or whole round tiny tortillas, or weird little bowl shapes.

  • personally, the only person i've known who actually played wh40k was a woman (she played tyrannids). i've been wanting to get into it since they introduced leagues of votaan, but it is a pricey fuckin hobby to get into.

  • i don't even understand what you think 'straight' and 'curved' even mean at this point.

  • of course the shortest distance is a straight line, that's literally the definition of a straight line.

  • thanks for the heads up and the link!

  • if you think it's all likely to fall apart soon, file asap if you're expecting to get money back, but put it off as long as possible if you're gonna have to pay them more. if the government is going down, might as well get your piece of it while you can.

  • haven't seen it, but this gave me an idea for an even more impractical design that i wanna make now. ya'll ever hear of the Christ the Redeemer statue?

  • Safe

    Jump
  • i mean, i guess i'd feel safe, but probably not super comfortable, given that they are all three very dead.

  • graphics and UI-wise, it definitely gives me runescape vibes, even if the gameplay is totally different.

  • to cite one example, just last night i happened to watch the episode "I Second That Emotion". in this, bender is so upset that others are paying attention to nibbler instead of him at nibbler's birthday party that he makes a big cake with his own name in huge letters, and when nibbler eats it before everyone else can see it and recognize how great bender is, he flushes nibbler down the toilet.

  • usually, calibre's ebook editor, but that's cause most of my html writing and editing is to make epubs.

  • rather more of them than on earth, according to the article.

    Wowhead, the database of Warcraft items, lists 1,203 types of currency in the game. To be fair, some of those have been retired, and others are currency for a single item or purpose—but in comparison, the entire world (not of Warcraft) only has 180.

  • fun fact: the blind spot is because our optical sensors are installed backwards and that hole is so the optic nerve can pass back through the back of the eye to the brain. some other critters with independently evolved vision systems, such as cephalopods, avoided this particular evolutionary pitfall.

  • if you're concerned about defederation, why would you go to lemmy.world, which seems no better on that front than lbz?

  • take a bit from the outer perimeter, rotate the zza slightly, then take another bite. repeat until you've spiral-noshed the whole thing

  • according to this list, nobody has gotten a billion from a lottery, yet. but sure, i guess that is the way to get rich, without having to exploit others. i also feel like i ought to point out that i never accused anyone of being evil geniuses, just evil.
