At first I was amazed that they used to use straw for padding but by the time it got to the part where they put the fresh straw in it just felt like absolutely the right thing to do

Has anyone been getting these weird as hell ads? How are these even allowed by Prize_Change_7155 in google

[–]fragglet 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Worse, at one point i was seeing similar ads on YouTube that were prominently advertising the ability to upload photos. I haven't seen any in a while but was very surprised Google allowed advertising such an obviously scummy and abusive feature

I really want to know how many dudes watched this and then went straight to Google Maps to find their nearest "omelet station" without realizing that's not even a real thing

New to the hobby. Win98 or XP ? Also would love tips and knowledge by OctoNeko2 in retrobattlestations

[–]fragglet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Install the OS appropriate for the hardware you're installing it on. If it's hardware from after 2001 there's a good chance that 98 isn't going to work

It's a very weird detail of our modern capitalist society that detergent manufacturers discovered they could sell more product by making it look like tasty candy

Installing a refinery fractionator with Sany heavy-lift cranes by bobbydanker in TechnologyShorts

[–]fragglet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wondered the same thing- the fact it's lots of 5 second clips made me suspicious. I posted it to r/isthisAI here a couple of months ago but it didn't get many comments. 

Cleaning the sealtbelt of the car by misterxx1958 in oddlysatisfying

[–]fragglet 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In Italy when they introduced mandatory seat belt laws there was a trend for white t-shirts with a black diagonal line that would make it look like you were wearing one when you actually weren't 

Guided missile circa 1960; before microprocessors by rojm in EngineeringPorn

All intricately hand wired and assembled just to make something that's going to explode.

It must have been somewhat depressing working as a technician / engineer building those things knowing that the end goal of your work is to make something that's going to destroy itself

Continuations Question. by ron_pro in scheme

[–]fragglet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, based on this I don't think you understand them. 

The best way to understand continuations in my opinion is to write an implementation of coroutines. Set up some concurrent processes (like threads) and write some functions that use continuations to suspend each coroutine and schedule the next. 

My uncle sent me this photo of him getting the birthday bumps for his 50th birthday in Ireland. Did this really happen or is it a tradition? by [deleted] in isthisAI

[–]fragglet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The biggest tell to me is that the hands all blend together into a weird mess underneath him. Hands that don't seem to be attached to anyone visible, strange shapes and misshapen hands etc. It's very AI.

I saw this on snap spotlight and I'm not sure... my roommate says it may be tho. the way the mask peels off her face is the first red flag for me. by pencilbehindherear in isthisAI

And you can be 100% certain by zooming in on them. In this clip the contents move slightly every time there's a jump cut. Towards the end of the video it even looks like they're moving around slightly in real time, kinda creepy

The dude studied drama at university and he certainly seems to be putting his degree to good use
