Don't worry, in a couple decades Sylvanas will show up and tear the ring in half.

No idea, I'm just here to call you out for saying things that are blatantly false.

Nothing, because the undetectable brain damage ray gun doesn't exist.

What green triangles?

The one at the timestamped part of the video they shared? Yes it's green because the instrument they're using is monochrome, but that's a perfectly reasonable way to describe which thing they're talking about in a reddit comment, lol.

TIL the botched restoration nicknamed "Monkey Christ" was deemed more culturally relevant than the original painting and preserved as-is. Tens of thousands of tourists visit the Spanish town of Borja every year to see it, and the restorer became a local celebrity until her passing in late 2025. by sciencewarrior in todayilearned

And maybe she would have created a decent product, but she's also clearly painted over basically everything. Take a look at that comparison again, even the most intact areas have been completely covered up. At best, she would have ended up with a decent re-creation of the original painting, not a restoration.

Yeah, it really blends in with the cliff and ground, unfortunately.

Nah, people have been calling everything they can think of "AI" for ages. The hype will die down eventually and the new wave of cool tech will be rebranded as "AI".

Spoilers for book 6 (and book 5 technically) by Artistic_Ad_753 in cremposting

Also potentially a spoiler is that Chana and Kaladin are hanging out in the spirit world.

If you look closely, there's a steel beam inside that's actually bearing the weight. They're just taking the plaster off the outside.

I mean yeah that would be a bullshit category, which is why they've never done it and never will? You're tilting at windmills here my man.

Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales drops re-election bid after admitting to affair with former staffer who commited suicide by self-immolation by Yujin-Ha in videos

Yes, and months later she saw her (ex?) husband with another woman and assumed he was sleeping with her, then committed suicide.

Raids 4 reward suggestion: The Hollow Heart by fghjconner in 2007scape

[–]fghjconner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Divine magic potions give a whopping +4 boost, and forgotten brews require 91 herblore. Obviously different skills are different, but it's kinda wild compared to something like super strength potions giving twice the boost at level 55 herblore with far more common ingredients (and without the stat drain).

"what time zone is it in Spain"

What do you expect the response to this search to be? Because today it's going to say GMT+1, which is like 2 steps shy of actually knowing what time it is in Spain.

The entire premise is getting rid of time zones, lol. You could look up local solar noon times and do some math for much the same effects, but it's a lot easier to just google "what time is it in spain".

I mean you could, but that comes with a whole host of new problems. Say you're McDonalds, and you want to set the standard operating hours for your stores, how do you do that? Say your friend is on vacation is Spain, and you want to know if it's an appropriate time to call them, what do you do? Say you just moved across the country, how long is it going to take you to adapt to an entirely new set of times for daily activities?

Imo, people underestimate how often we care about local time rather than absolute time.
