The images are not actually the captcha. They’ve used other methods and tools to verify your authenticity, then they force you to help train their image recognition AI under the guise of it being the actual captcha. Its Distributed Forced Labor, and Google has been using captchas to do this for decades. Remeber the picture-of-two-words captcha? One word was always squiggly and the other was not. The squiggly word was the real captcha, the other word was from a scanned book and you were helping to train their OCR algorithms.

100% it is antiquated technology.

Wristwatches are just jewelry at this point tbh. They’ve been rendered completely redundant by cell phones. The only people under 60 who wear them are doing so as a fashion statement.

I’m sure a lot of wristwatch stans will downvote me but I don’t care I’m still right

I disagree. The teabag is a welcome replacement to having to have yet another unitasker in the kitchen.

No, that complicates things way too much. Simplicity in design is beauty. A real engineer would recognize the tag on the string not only as a point a confusion, but also a superfluous feature. Simply remove it. The end user will have to use a spoon supplied by themselves to remove the teabag, but thats their problem. At least there is actually tea in the cup at that point.

Shhhh if you say it like that people’s heads will explode

Literally all I want is for my government to manage capitalism instead of capitalism managing my government.

I am certain that Elon will try to co-opt Trump’s cult following and be his political successor when Trump finally kicks the bucket, and that legitimately terrifies me. Elon will run for pres in the next 20 years I’d bet on it.

Here let me try to solve all of it’s issues:

1. Get rid of the vacuum idea to reduce complexity and points of failure.

2. Move track above ground to reduce manufacture/maintenance costs.

3. Make the “pods” longer and chain multiple pods together to increase efficiency.

Wait a minute… 🤔 🚉

Elon has all but admitted that the hyperloop was just a distraction to derail California’s public rail plans, and now that that ship has sailed he doesnt give a shit about hyperloop anymore. The Hyperloop concept is literally just a tool that Elon uses to prevent development of public transport in California so that people will buy more teslas instead.

Its close, but not an exact match

I had a trogdor polo shirt, with a little trogdor embroidered where the polo guy usually is. I think my ex covertly threw it away at some point while we dating for 7 years.

I will never forgive her.

All metrics are terrible when used for anything other than objective analysis

Ive heard of stories where people would have an imposed test coverage percentage requirement… and they would just have a single dummy method that printed “.” to the console thousands of times. They then have a single test for that one method, and whenever their codebase grows to big, they add more lines to it so that the dummy method has enough lines to meet the test coverage requirement.

One time when I was contracting and my company was in the middle of a merger I had to do triple time keeping; client, old company, new company, all on different systems, two of which were ancient hr software from the 90s for some reason still in use 5 years ago. Its at that point I just started blanket logging 6 hours per day on whatever project I could think of at the moment.

Mr beast is popping up in various internet news circles lately because one of his friends/"co-star"s in his youtube videos was just caught grooming a 12 year old. To make things even worse, Mr beast was aware that this friend of his was pedo for years and continued to make videos with him(her). She recently transitioned last year and that was a minor controversy of its own for Mr beast cause most of his audience is cringey transphobic teens and tweens.

Fun fact he actually started out by making minecraft videos in middle school. “Mr Beast” is literally a name thought up by a 12 year old trying to look cool on the internet.

Wow guys, get a load of this cissy over here!

(Jk me too lol)

Did you know that in terms of…

Stared at screens for 12 hours

I think its pretty standard stock in a bar, I’ve never had someone not have it. There are other drinks with lime flavor too.
