I always enjoyed subs, but wished I could understand the original Japanese, so I took Japanese classes in HS and college to learn the language. Now I can't help but listen to the Japanese AND try to read the subtitles at the same time. (ー_ー*)

If you want to run some less low-level code to explore the kinds of sounds that code like this can create, I wrote a python applet that lets you explore random and custom functions interactively. It comes with several presets for interesting functions I've discovered on various websites.

But if there were no commercials how would I discover new innovative products like "cheese-stuffed cheese"?

I think the Japanese language handles this pretty well. People typically refer to someone by name, even when speaking directly to them where "you" would be used in English.

These are looking like all the animate objects in Don't Hug Me I'm Scared.

Ah, I found the link at the bottom of the main page. I had no idea there were so many instances!

The MIRV is even a better idea than using the eagles!

r/buyitforlife is a treasure

I believe this is how Google handles leap years and leap seconds on all of their servers. They kind of smear the difference out over a period of time so the difference isn't noticeable. Great for day to day activities, but people doing scientific measurements or other precision date work would probably have to use their own solution.

5+ sets are also possible and can get very intricate.

A silent, energy-free cooling solution that works for hours at a time? Sounds like it's perfect for military operations. Imagine the Boston Dynamics robots, but without the whirr of cooling fans.

Interesting. Is there a way to see which servers mine is currently federated with?

Thanks for posting this! I've often struggled with ACPI and Linux in the past and this sheds a little light on why that is.

Bold choice to have your arrow keys all in a row. Did you consider VIM arrow order when choosing a layout?

This is cuter than having the head and body the other way round.

My personal favorite is the spider costume for dogs.

I also started with the HTC Magic. It's the only phone I've used that has a trackball.

If I happen to be the doctor and it's someone else going under I'd say "Okay, let's get this leg amputated!" when that is NOT the actual operation happening.

The way AI is heading, the future is gonna get pretty damn weird. A little childhood trauma will probably help those fourth graders grow into adults that can handle it.

If there aren't compilation instructions in the readme, check the source code for a "/docs" durectory. Sometimes you can find instructions there.
