Oh my god, AF's home page feels like it's from 2004

There's a story about how Zhuge Liang, a general and strategist during the Three Kingdoms period, protected a city from a 150,000 strong enemy army by hiding his force of 100 soldiers, leaving the gates wide open and playing a lute atop them, in plain sight of the enemy general. The enemy saw that, thought "No way I'm falling for this trap" and retreated.

That never happened, but Cao Cao did pull a similar feat against Lu Bu - the town had dense forests nearby, where forces could effectively hide. Lu Bu retreated the first time, but came back the next day and attacked, only this time Cao Cao's soldiers were actually hiding in the forest and fought Lu Bu.

I love how V8 doesn't support anything, it's just dead weight 🤣

There was also the time he couldn't wait to bomb some dodongos

Not capitalism exclusive, but expected in any system that has strict hierarchy and needs lots of bodies in the lower levels - capitalism needs truckloads of poor people just like petty aristocrats needs serfs. The moment the population of those lower levels start to diminish, they call out for everyone to have more kids.

Lots of layoffs

Aren't those considered disorders, tho? Like XXX or XXY

I do have a hard time thinking without "listening" my own voice

Kinda? I usually drift about how the hell we even reached our current situation from the beginning of the universe; how, despite being a huge collection of cells and bacteria, we understand ourselves as a single unit

My brother has a bad temper and sometimes destroys his daughter's stuff "as a warning". I think the threat works immediately

In other words, Baszucki claims that the reason for the dip in safety spending is directly linked to the adoption of AI systems. One of those moderation systems, announced over the summer, was supposedly designed to detect “early signs” of child endangerment. However, under Baszucki’s social media posts about the tool, you can find dozens of complaints that the AI is failing to stop harmful content.

If I ever have kids, they'll find that every network at home will block off roblox entirely.

Dude says: "I'm not worried about the AI apocalypse, I always say "thank you" to them!"
Robots later catch him and state: "Throw that one in the grinder, his "thank you" used 748kw/h every day"

 

A 2023 study at MIT made this discovery, which could be a boon for storing electricity.

The team calculated that a block of nanocarbon-black-doped concrete that is 45 cubic meters (or yards) in size — equivalent to a cube about 3.5 meters across — would have enough capacity to store about 10 kilowatt-hours of energy, which is considered the average daily electricity usage for a household.

3.5 cubic meters of material ought to be enough to make quite a comfy house

There is a tradeoff between the storage capacity of the material and its structural strength, they found. By adding more carbon black, the resulting supercapacitor can store more energy, but the concrete is slightly weaker, and this could be useful for applications where the concrete is not playing a structural role or where the full strength-potential of concrete is not required.

They talk about making roads with the material, but I suspect electrical posts (utility poles) could also be made of this, which would certainly last much longer than roads and be cheaper to maintain and fix

 

Double edged sword, since it's good that we can actually remember said experiences and maybe pass the wisdom down.

 

23 games + 1 DLC^[I nearly bought Blades of Time Limited edition, then I saw that I already had the base game in my library. It's one of the things that pisses me off with GOG, it won't say you own the game if you have the base/deluxe/platinum/definitive/whatever edition but are looking at a different version, and will gladly let you buy it again] for R$180 (~32 USD)

I know some of those aren't exactly bangers, or might just barely be considered good, but I ~~won't even play them all anyway^[I really need to get my shit together and start playing instead of just buying]~~ enjoy looking at subpar games from time to time
