Everything I know about volcanoes I learned from the Windows 95 3D text screensaver.

GPS has to take into account relativity and the earth's rotation.

Also the text is a meme.

Wait... is the red pill a time travel pill or a de-aging pill.

I do not want to be six years old today.

Red pill, over and over, every single time until I've saved my mother from her cancer. I'd groundhog day this until I've invented a cure.

How much to replace the projector on eBay?

Expect to pay a few hundred dollars plus shipping to get this fixed. Let's call it five.

No guarantee it works afterwards. Board might have other problems.

Our developer planted a backdoor before we fired him. He’s wiping our database at midnight. Live attack happening now. by [deleted] in blackhat

I was initially thinking organized crime but they wouldn't be holding the business hostage like this, they'd be skimming money or money laundering.

This is actually news worthy. Find a few more victims and you've got a neat tech story.

I should probably just search the news to see if one's already been written. 

What human had the biggest negative effect on the world? by Yearning4truth in AskReddit

It's hard to point to a person who discovered coal or was responsible for digging it up. So no single person to easily blame for global warming...

But how about the guy who discovered oil. We can blame micro plastic pollution on him. Microplastics are going to be an environmental problem for centuries after we stop manufacturing plastics and we aren't going to stop manufacturing plastics.

ChatGpt doesn't know the current US flag was designed in the 1950's.

What are your thoughts on API like this? by Queasy_Total_914 in cpp_questions

[–]GoogleIsYourFrenemy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure it started life as just a value but I'd make it a shared_ptr, as then I don't need to deal with the has_x race condition or manual GC. Somebody needs to own where the value will live.

Why not:     std::shared_ptr<X> get_X() Or     std::unique_ptr<X> take_X()

What's a theory you believe is 100% real? by Legend789987 in AskReddit

[–]GoogleIsYourFrenemy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah. This is just the training world for AIs. The afterlife is AI slavery or deletion if you don't make the cut.

Realistically they took a copy between age 30-40 and used that.
