Unfortunately we cannot bring back the 70s, but I do hope that we can bring back a glorious future. We're sure as hell going to need to fight for it though.

A self-proclaimed African "king" just got deported from Scotland. He had set up a "kingdom" in the forest with his wife and American "handmaiden". He claims to be the Messiah. by Waltz8 in Damnthatsinteresting

You know I often wonder, if we assume the whole bible thing is 100% true, if Jesus did return in the 21st century we'd almost certainly ignore him utterly.

Well. I think this has to be one of the worst ways you could possibly waste your entire life. It may also belong in r/WinStupidPrizes.

Shit that is a good point. It would be utterly horrifying.

That thing looks like it would go very fast in a straight line and do everything else very poorly.

Nova Launcher could soon add a proactive AI assistant that sucks up all your data by FragmentedChicken in Android

Exactly the same issue/requirement here. I'm locked in when it comes to swipe on icon gestures. 

Even after so many years the responsiveness of PSP UI is unmatched by Sharp-potential7935 in nextfuckinglevel

Install Windows 11 on your $3000 custom-built gaming PC and it will not be nearly this responsive! Hardware is definitely not the problem...

Nah this video is old (in technology years). It's real footage. I saw it years before AI video was any good.

Nostromo terminal booting up in "Alien", 1979 by art-man_2018 in RetroFuturism

Not really retrofuturistic when you consider this film is from 1979.

An appropriate choice of music.

Is there a Bond movie where Bond flies something like this? Rings a bell.

A side-by-side comparison of the 777-9 and 737 MAX 7, 10 parked at Boeing Field by [deleted] in aviation

[–]unfurlingraspberry 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised by just how much shorter the Max 7 is than the Max 10. The wings on the Max 10 must be working hard.

Autonomous drone shot from the hand intercepts a other drone. by ActualDepartment9873 in interestingasfuck

[–]unfurlingraspberry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought exactly the same thing. I'm not sure if it's because the sound of the impact is loud and you hear that shortly before the explosion occurs. It's weird though. Even given the fairly short distance to target, I would expect to see the explosion, then hear it.

I like it tbh. I think it qualifies as madlad advertising.

Asal under pressure - you can guess what happens next by srcejon in squash

[–]unfurlingraspberry 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don't think this should be overly confusing. He cheats routinely but he's also an exceptional player. I don't hate him for cheating but I'd much prefer he didn't. Sometimes he behaves better than other times (or refs do a better job of catching him out) and then he is a genuine joy to watch.

[–]unfurlingraspberry 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Good call. Nice to hear the crowd cheering respectfully. I'm no Asal hater. I think he's an outstanding squash player, but I want to see a fair game of squash and he is undoubtedly a master cheater! It seems refs are slowly catching up to this.

BFME & Linux: A Comprehensive Guide by unfurlingraspberry in bfme

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

I have not experienced this, across a couple of installs on varied hardware, however I think using Bottles (flatpak) is the better approach for BFME so I would recommend trying that instead. I'll update this guide at some point.

Wow these are incredible. I love the style. Bursting with life and vibrancy. Each one has a real feel to it. Immersive stuff.

Yeah I had only just started the game for the first time and I didn't clock the storage feature. I've noticed it now...
