Just a few days ago I was thinking about firing up my 360 to play some Halo Reach. Any idea if the online matchmaking still works?

Just for reference, Codex using GPT-5.4 and that exact prompt was a 4-shot that took ten minutes. The first result was a horrific caricature. After a slight rebuke ("That looks ter…

Yes! I still use my Panasonic 50" plasma as my daily driver. I still love it, it's an amazing TV :D

But, does it have wobbly windows?

Very cool, I was unaware of this product. Thanks for the deal! :D

Unfortunately, yes. Several years ago they started soldering the RAM directly to the motherboard, and don't provide any ram slots. So, whatever amount a unit shipped with is the ma…

I do the exact same thing. Just a text file that these days I store in a Dropbox folder so that no matter what system I'm on I can just "vi ~/Dropbox/notes.txt". Similarly, several…

Thanks for that! I hadn't seen it before, that's pretty funny.

While ultimately true, the problem is that you can't control how other people think or judge, but you can control what you wear.

The immutability illusion was busted for me when SpaceX edited one of their video live-streams. Their intent was harmless in that they corrected a split-screen that was showing the…

Thank you for mentioning IrfanView. Back in the day I used to have a cracked copy of LviewPro that was always one of the 1st programs to be installed whenever I started working on …

Thank you, I had the same problem. Apt couldn't find it in my Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS install, and when I googled it I'm pretty sure "South Carolina Department of Corrections" wasn't wh…

Same here. The moment I saw "programmatic ads" I thought, "then what kind of ads do they have?"

I recently heard it called as being in a state of equilibrium. Not sure if that's the one you were thinking of, but it was in the context of ancient construction techniques and des…

In the late 80s or early 90s I was interviewing for a data entry job at General Motors, and was told that they were getting burned frequently by blindly paying incoming invoices fo…

If you want to view their header image at larger size but right-clicking doesn't give you the option to "Open image in new tab", the direct link is below. Not a big deal, but it mi…

Or nut job s (plural), unknown to or untouchable by the administration, have a pet project ;)

Exactly. I believe I saw one or more UFOs when I was kid, maybe 10 or 11 years old, while riding my bike to a local park. Three or four stationary white lights in the sky, equidist…

That makes no sense to me. If something is doing something, then it's automatically possible, which, if lacking another explanation, automatically means it could be evidence of ali…

McDonald's has been testing one they call the McVegan, but it's only available in a few countries outside the US. With Burger King's version being available, I'm guessing that will…

Done! The device in the patent claims to be a gravitational mass reduction device.

Or, that it did go somewhere, but the start of this project's "near term" was decades ago.

Google says otherwise. Here is a clip from the Senate Judiciary Committee questioning about a month ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwyuCtbK3qw

Did you mean RediSQL.com? Or is that someone else?

Thank you for your thoughts on it, I'm intrigued enough to really want to look more into it. Even if I don't get to use it, I think it will give me some ideas that I can apply to o…
