    Enter the Void. Not that's an amazing title sequence. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wNtxgxYY7sI https://fontsinuse.com/uses/61211/enter-the-void-title-seque...

    It's hard when people are paying for the cameras. This is capitalism. Money is always the #1 priority & we have little relative to those pushing for the surveillance state.

    This is going to be end up being like the reflecting pool, but on a grander scale. Tax payers are going to end up paying Trump's incompetent friends a ton of money to just make fly…

    If it's the salted anchovies I'm thinking of what I'm thinking of (like in the yt video in your sibling comment), salted anchovies are a lot cheaper and more versatile (the downsid…

    For me, most of the time they don't and instead tell me something I already know or make some assertion with no attribution. Pre-AI, I usually found my answer among the first few r…

    Rotten? Do you have any more info about this product, even a name? Salted anchovies are common in at least Spain, Italy & Portugal (and you usually rinse off the excess salt and op…

    It's hard to say, depending on how far back your idea of "a few years ago" might be or where exactly you ate. After all, Japan has a lot of sushi restaurants and even different sus…

    No. Sometimes the spill checker just auto co-wrecks people.

    Having something as mundane as a transit pass be designed so beautifully installs a sense of civic pride. Plus, it employs artists. Both of these things are important for a communi…

    It's not like they're showing ads on fridges/cars in the commercials or the display units in Lowe's/the dealership. By the time you see the ad, it's too much of a hassle to return …

    No. The case can be settled out of court. This doesn't necessarily mean lawsuits are misleading or terrible as measures.

    I asked a coworker who gave a few reasons. It's easier/cheaper to buy in bulk. He gets them by the case. He also like sweet flavors more than bitter flavors.

    I doubt there ever was a time/environment. Snake oil has been around consistently for a very long time.

    Smart TVs don't exist for your convenience. They exist to track your behavior and serve you ads. If they happen to have some hackability, it's an accident or happy coincidence.

    These aren't all dev tools. Plus, for devs, it was a way to show off. For end users, fun is a consideration as well. If you're curious, it's not hard to get an emulator up and runn…

    No. Knowingly reporting lies (including lies by omission) isn't "neutral".

    I suspect this is more due to cost cutting and the fact that context would likely paint the people who own these media outlets in a bad light. Keeping their readers underinformed i…
