That's some excrepioncal capaaacity right there.

There used to be a chain of burger restaurants in the UK named after that character. They had a burger called the Bender.

Edit: apparently still going, but they rebranded the Bender as the Bendy for... reasons.

Kinky! Are you on Recon?

About a quarter of a millilitre.

I remember when Google was the good guy.

Lots of people shitting on Microsoft on this thread ignoring that it's not Microsoft who charge for a codec and that Microsoft promote a royalty-free HEVC competitor called AV1.

Guaranteed this video file is from an Apple device, where patent-encumbered HEVC is the default recording format.

Only if your computer's manufacturer paid for it.

"Perfection is the enemy of progress."

A really good quote that I live by. It was also popular with the Nazis, unfortunately, so if it's not a self-illustrative example then I don't know what is.

Ideally the wheel should be big enough for a single human but not so big that it can fit multiple humans.

Source: I was once a child on a wheel big enough for multiple humans.

It's like saying "prove you don't own a poodle". How do you prove that? I can tell you I don't own a poodle... but how can you be sure?

"Sire! The Theiyr"reian hoards have attacked the village of Peasantry. The Peasants, they fight back, Sire, but they will surely be overwhelmed. We expect a death toll in the millions, Sire."

"Dispatch ten knights to se- wait, 'millions'? There's only a few thousand people in that village."

"Yes, Sire, we included the Theiyr"reians in our estimates... there's a lot of them but they fight with wooden swords, Sire."

"..."

"They are an inefficient peoples, Sire."

Theiyr"re

In my secondary school we were expected to address all the teachers by name so I tended to use "Er...".

I don't have a cat. But rest assured that if I did it would be pampered and, potentially, overfed. So we'll call that a draw.

Thousandsaire.

Yeah, that's it. State's rights.

IMHO, there are only personal rights and government rights. State's rights just means consolidation of power to a specific level of government and since those powers rarely come from a different level of government, where else could they come from*...?*

Our nukes strike fear into anyone who happens to be within a couple hundred meters of our launch sites while not wearing a good helmet.

This picture has Wes Anderson vibes.

£21/mo for a 100Mb/s VDSL connection split at 80/20: speeds as advertised, ~10ms latency. I'm living in the centre of a large market town in the North of England.

Two doors down, my neighbour is paying £25/mo for symmetric gigabit FTTP with negligible latency, but the fibre network doesn't extend to my property. Fuckers.

Oh, I also have a backup/travel LTE service which provides about a 1150Mb/s down and 300Mb/s up with 20ms latency which costs me £18/mo.

Is the North Korean currency called Lost?
