The universe is large enough that similar combinations of events could have happened elsewhere too. But it's also large enough that those places are most likely further from us than our species will ever travel.
Um.. that's what I said was my assumption. But according to the comment I was replying to, people prefer the flipped version because it looks like what they see in the mirror, i.e. what they think they look like.
I recently was looking for help troubleshooting an issue and ended up checking reddit and I was shocked at just how bad it got. There were AI generated comments that seemed to provide a solution, but the link went to some spam URL instead of the product they were supposedly talking about (and these were recent comments, not old dead links). The kind of stuff you used to see on unmoderated comment sections on WordPress sites that nobody maintained.
it IP blocks people and tracks IP’s linked to editing
Unless something changed, this part was at least partially true at one point. But only for anonymous edits iirc. Usually happened for IPs shared by a lot of people like from a campus or some VPNs, probably due to a lot of vandalism from such IPs.
I thought it was just a more scientific classification.
Scientifc classification by sex. Referring to others by their biological sex in a social context is weird and creepy. Even if you believe sex and gender are the same thing, it's still weird to call people by their sex. "Hello, male human. Want to ingest some fried pieces of cow flesh tonight?"
Using "guys" for a group of only women works only in 2nd person. You can say "I love you guys!" to a group of women, but you can't say "I was hanging out with the guys" when talking about the same group.
Camera apps nowadays “correct” for that and do mirror the image for preview
Huh, I always thought people who post flipped photos are just technically challenged (and/or have really poor eye for detail to not notice it). Never considered someone doing that on purpose just to further their own delusion of what they look like.
For computer stuff I just use newegg. The filters are great in most categories and once you find something you can search for that specific product on Amazon to compare prices.
I've never thought of them as crime novels, except Caves of Steel (which was explicitly written to prove that sci-fi is not a genre), but I've already read half of the top 10. Guess I'll add the other half to my to read list.
Just today I was trying to look for something at homedepot and not only were the filters exactly like that, but they were also additive. So if I selected both "1 chicken" and "1 chickens" to cover both spellings, it would say 0 results because no product matches both at the same time.
And if Ceres is a planet, shouldn't Eris be one too?
