I just had a mini-revelation that this looks weird because the "pupil" is on the surface of the contact instead of under the lens of the eye. These aren't bad contacts; contacts are just bad like that. Seems that post processing is really the only option.

I'm a little worried about the level of critical thinking around here if people really feel that "great" arguments can be expressed in a four panel comic.

The world is not simple, and memes can not make a valid worldview.

I don't think either PBS or NPR has been "bought" by anyone. They're both still non-profits owned by their member stations.

Well not quite that either. I don't know how to pack this up into a tidy analogy, but the issue is that some of these communication platforms have been designed in such a way that no record of the content can be accessed by a third party.

So maybe it's more like, "Please give me a transcript of the keynote speech at your murderer's convention," and replying, "Sorry I don't have a transcript." And then the government further saying, "Well then you need to let us install bugs in all your rooms," and you, the host of many different conventions reply, "No. Privacy is part of the service." I have now belabored this analogy to death. You're welcome.

I was flying home with a snow globe souvenir one day. TSA had to huddle with their team and a calculator to figure out the volume of a sphere on the spot. I don't know if the volume ended up being under the limit or they just gave up.

It's a constitutional amendment that was ruled on. The Constitution applies the same in all states. If it were just Colorado law I think it would be much harder to appeal the ruling to the US Supreme Court.

A truly poor analogy. LLMs don't remove anything from anywhere. They consume no shared resource.

It's been wild watching people flail about searching for arguments for why LLMs should be stopped. I'm not even saying they shouldn't, just that I haven't seen a solid argument for it.

Oh good, a petition.

I mean, it's an mtx-free, drm-free, full feature game. If BG3 isn't worth paying for, I don't know what is.

Netanyahu's legislation would give the Knesset the power to overrule their Supreme Court with a simple majority vote. I've not seen anyone make an argument for such extreme measures to redress the US Supreme Court, and certainly not in this article. The most common arguments I've seen are,

• Impose a Code of Ethics, and possibly to impeach the most obviously compromised justices
• Add term limits, possibly retroactively
• Expand the court

These all have risks, but so does taking no action.

Bad bot. That URL just has a /c/ in it. Although connect also seems to be screwing up.

I went on that journey a couple years ago. What I ended up buying is technically considered "digital signage" rather than a TV. Basically zero bloat. You may have to pay a little extra but I don't recall it being that much. Pretty sure I got it here.
