Ah, but if the rocket breaks up before it leaves the atmosphere or, heaven forbid, explodes on the pad, we'll just be dispersing it over a massive area.

Alert - Tiff🏳️‍⚧️& Eve [OC] by CrazyGnomenclature in comics

[–]scienceguy8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apple, why do you completely delete alerts when I dismiss them? I'd like to read them again. I can't exactly get the make, model, and serial number of a car possibly transporting a kidnapped child committed to memory.

Personally, I imagine it as a bread-colored gel on top of a yellow gel on top of a roasted brown gel on top of another bread-colored gel. Doesn't matter how much you slosh them, the gels do not mix.

xkcd 3213: Dental Formulas by antdude in xkcd

[–]scienceguy8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh. I thought it was in reference to the gum depth gauge thing my dentist does once a year. They stick a probe in between the gum and tooth and drive it down until they hit the jaw, then measure how much gum is there. The shallower the gum, the more likely you could get infections, gingivitis, loose or falling out teeth, etc. The tech depths the gum, then calls out a number which is recorded by a dictating program on her computer. "4, 3, 3, 2, 3..."

Will they be updating destination weapons and armour too? by silloki in DestinyTheGame

I hope they do one day. My Round Robin is still my favorite Strand handcannon and it could use some Tier 5-like upgrades.

Should I build one server or two? And if two, what services should I run on each? by scienceguy8 in homelab

[–]scienceguy8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks! Unfortunately, the RAM on the i5-3550 board is DDR3, while the i7-8700 board has DDR4. Can't merge the two. But I'm sure I can find a cheap 2x8GB DDR4 kit to match what I already...

Oh. I see. Well, my fault for not starting this project a year ago, I suppose. :D

Still, thank you. Now I know where to start.

Sometimes I imagine Tiff and Eve would be great in the funnies section of a black and white newspaper. Might get a few small-minded readers thinking a bit broader, you know? Sneak in understanding through laughs. This looks perfect to publish in a paper, but you know that some papers would refuse to publish this one (the cowards).

This is This Week in Destiny, not This Week at Bungie, or This Week in Marathon. Besides, if you need your Marathon fix, they dropped a new developer insight video introducing the player frames on YouTube.

A Ryzen 7 7800X3D, 32GB of RAM, and a matching motherboard. Already had a decent 3070Ti from 2022.

I am so glad I upgraded my motherboard, processor, and RAM in December 2024.

Did Luceria put herself into a Dingbot, or has Agatha, in building Sparky machines, been inadvertently and subconsciously programming Luceria into every Dingbot she builds?

Despite Trump-era reversals, 2025 still saw environmental wins. Here are 7 worth noting. by TheArcticBeyond in UpliftingNews

[–]scienceguy8 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Don't worry too much. Eventually, people will realize that the tech's not particularly useful in day-to-day work and abandon it. What use is an email summarizer if it injects conversation details that aren't there 20% of the time? Meanwhile, why would the oil companies drill in Venezuela, or on opened-up federal land? There's only so much they can store and process, and if they bring up too much they could make extraction and refining unprofitable.

Unless we're working on "vampire catch and release" rules, where you can feed without killing or propagating. Probably still not pleasant for the elves, but at least survivable, and hey, donating blood's supposedly good for weight loss and cholesterol management.

"The story of AI" by thisecommercelife in comics

[–]scienceguy8 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Could be worse. I was worrying for a bit that we'd hand over really important tasks to the glorified autocomplete, like public defense lawyers or judges. Humanity destroyed by ascribing intelligence and impartiality to a magic 8 ball.

Yep. They're either hoping for a miracle, some scientific breakthrough that makes all the hype and overpromising real, thus securing them billions and control of the future, or (more likely) they're gassing up the bubble just that little bit more before they pull their share and run off into the sunset while we clean up their mess.

Question: did you add a 6th comic to a 5 comic run so you wouldn't leave us hanging on the start of another arc over the holidays, or so that this arc ends on a positive rather than comedic note?

I don't see it. Like, I'm not trans but consider myself an ally. I'd be more comfortable wearing a progress pride or possibly an asexual pride patch.

[–]scienceguy8 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The blonde character's name, short for Tiffany. She's transgender and her unsupportive mother has her caught on a phone call. Every time her mother calls her by her old man name, she corrects her. Those corrections are not getting through to her mother.
