I’m not familiar with Lunduke. Could you elaborate?

This doesn’t seem surprising at all. Isn’t that what Google Play Services is for? If you don’t want it, custom ROMs are easily installed.

I see you settled on a design for the toaster. Love the mustache.

Oooohhhh that looks very nice. Although the battery is much smaller than the Glucosent.

LEDs and rechargeable batteries have changed everything. Mine lasts for many hours before it needs to be recharged. And it only takes a little bit to recharge it.

My Glucusent book light, I use it every night when I read before bed. It is the best book light I’ve ever had and I absolutely love it.

Here’s a link to the chatbot. It’s pretty good at explaining things and has a lot of patience for the hopeless drivel conspiracy theories contain. I like how it doesn’t just refute them with specific evidence, but tears apart the very logic of the conspiracy theories.

Does this really work? Wouldn’t rm remove itself in /bin early in the process?

I was once driving on some back roads I was unfamiliar with. I turned a corner and didn’t realize there was a stop sign until too late and went right through the intersection. As I went through it, I turned my head to the left and noticed that a car was heading right for me. It missed me by inches.

TIL there’s a term for this: Schrödinger’s joke

This is the second story I read today about the terrible things people are using Telegram for. Here’s the second one and beware, it’s very disturbing. https://arstechnica.com/culture/2024/08/thanks-internet-its-now-shockingly-easy-to-become-an-international-monkey-torturer/

How is it cratering? Sure, exchange rates are showing ups and downs over the past year, but it’s not much more than a 10 USD spread.

It doesn’t seem so. I looked on YouTube and someone cut together a lot of gameplay footage from different sources. It’s enough to get a sense for the game. It looks really cool. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhhH_ocfqZw&t=957s

That’s how my partner does it with our cat. I, on the other hand, have to hold her down before she lets me brush her teeth.

Search Engine with PJ Vogt. They do deep dives into all kinds of things and it’s full of interesting information.

The headline kind of reads like Google made a Pixel 9 Pro Mini, which would be awesome. Please do that Google.

I think you’re giving companies too much credit. Freakonomics did a series called “Does Advertising Actually Work?” and the tl;dr was ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

That would be an interesting twist. Alt Tony Stark is Dr. Doom so the real Dr. Doom joins the Avengers to save the universe. Although Doom’s motivation would likely be to prove he’s the superior Doom. Seems like that would make a decent Secret Wars plotline.

I’m wondering if they’ll turn an alternative universe Tony Stark into Doom. Are there any comics where this happens?

As far as feelings: very excited. I was bummed when Robert Downey Jr. exited the MCU and it will be nice to have him back. I hope it’s more than a cameo.
