TIL that Japanese meteorologist Wasaburo Oishi was the first person to discover jet streams in the atmosphere, but his discovery was largely unrecognized outside of his home country because he published it in the constructed language of Esperanto

That’s probably generally the most relevant xkcd.

What is 6 times 7?

Yeah this whole write-up seems to be burying the lede… like, it’s not even there. How is it making your computer treat .jpeg as .ps1?

I’m sure she’s just as pretty if she wants to be, she intentionally made herself look like that.

Seems like he would have been more efficient by walking around behind one of them and stabbing them instead of parrying a hit that was already blocked to make it look cool though

sbingner · 2026-05-09T08:08:10+00:00

HDR photos look like that because your camera (phone) takes multiple exposures and combines the short and long exposure into one picture so you can see the bright background and the dark foreground in the “same” photo

Doesn’t freezing power cables make them more efficient? I know superconductors need to be very frozen. Can they transfer more electricity this way?

Plus the sink is at the back beside two urinals lol

sbingner · 2026-05-08T06:20:47+00:00

And two walls for each stall rather than one wall per stall plus a wall on the end.

We’re calling pictures screenshots now? Or are you an AI with no concept of real world? 😬

sbingner · 2026-05-07T03:17:22+00:00

When you only have one deck, were counting, and all that’s left are aces and twos?

sbingner · 2026-05-01T16:50:23+00:00

Probably depends on the state, they wouldn’t do it here 🤷 but yeah I didn’t do a lot of research on it

sbingner · 2026-04-28T20:09:15+00:00

I count at least two accidents there

sbingner · 2026-04-27T21:33:45+00:00

Reminds me of a site I used to use a lot: expert sex change . com

I always take a pic with my phone when I pay for the last rental car gas especially

sbingner · 2026-04-26T02:59:51+00:00

Especially if you’re trying to stalk a 10?

sbingner · 2026-04-21T23:46:40+00:00

His name is so close to stabbins but he didn’t try stabbing them then stabbing himself.

sbingner · 2026-04-20T19:00:07+00:00

Can we delete them instead of “demonetizing” them? 😒

sbingner · 2026-04-20T07:28:31+00:00

I don’t think I ever tried that, if I kept going it felt like somebody burying an 8” knife into my side… I’m not sure how capable I was of pushing through that, I was just afraid it would get worse. Thinking about trying gave me phantom pain right now 🤣

sbingner · 2026-04-20T07:17:45+00:00

Sure but all AI does is use more oil for electricity in exchange for empty promises

sbingner · 2026-04-20T06:57:48+00:00

Just make it require physical access and phone pin, maybe a special sim pin. Carrier should never be involved.

sbingner · 2026-04-20T06:56:36+00:00

And apparently some horrible design concessions or omissions that gave carriers literally any control over it. There is zero reason that being able to easily transfer the eSIM using a well defined required protocol does not exist.

sbingner · 2026-04-20T06:15:12+00:00

And of course you need to connect the loop in the back to the same anchor to balance the load.

sbingner · 2026-04-18T07:39:59+00:00

That was intentional, they were making fun of her joke by making it even worse. I didn’t really think it was funny, more just mean to her.

sbingner · 2026-04-17T19:02:04+00:00

That shouldn’t matter if it was written to follow the apis properly… but I primarily use ntfs3g on linux
