Yep. A third party candidate hasn’t gotten a single electoral college vote since George Wallace, and the only time a third party has done better than either a Democrat or a Republican was with Theodore Roosevelt and his Bull Moose party, which crushed Taft but got absolutely obliterated in turn by Wilson due to the spoiler effect.

Who would want to buy them? The only value a studio has without it’s IP is the devs, and you don’t need to buy the studio to acquire them.

Jokes on them, ublock origin still works just fine for me.

If it takes over the video it would be. I pause YT videos all the time to read something that didn’t stay on screen long enough.

Yep, nvidia’s linux drivers are notoriously jank.

Hacksmith on youtube uses playstation controllers for remote operation of their giant mechs.

Fucking same. Gives me the same vibe as OJ with pulp, ugh

Almost, but not quite. A single second recording played at one fps would take roughly 5 million years to finish, so a 40 minute recording would take 12 billion years to finish at 1 fps. The big bang was 13.8 billion years ago.

To anyone that doesn’t believe in ghosts, which I assume is most people, it’s not really relevant? Like, obviously if there’s any “questionable” stains on the wall or something still I wouldn’t be on board, but as long as the house was properly renovated afterwards I don’t see an issue.

Take a visit to /r/worldnews, then

When has banning porn ever been profitable? Look at tumblr.

As someone who still semi-frequents reddit, it’s mostly bots, more and more of which are clearly using some form of ChatGPT or another LLM. It’s actually kinda absurd, I’ve seen many a comment chains where it’s just different bots replying to each other, both pretending to be real people.

Can’t help you with any of the other stuff, but to answer your 4k question: No, you still need your 4k collection for best quality. Upscaled 1080p is still 1080p, it just makes it not look wonky on a 4k display. Any details lost due to the source resolution will still be lost, you can’t create extra detail out of thin air.

I can’t help you with this in the general sense… but trust me, if they block you, you won. That’s a full retreat on their part.

It’s not just that. Ovens cook with heat originating outside of the food, so the skin cooks(and cracks) before the inside gets hot enough to detonate. Microwaves on the other hand cook by exciting water molecules inside the food, and since the inside of the potato has way more moisture than the skin, it heats up much faster than the skin does.

A 9th level casting of the spell could create up to about 112.5gp if we go with the 3.5e economy(which doesn’t have this spell, anyways), or only just over 1gp going off the 5e economy(it takes about 4 gallons of seawater per lb of salt, and you can purify 90 gallons casting at 9th level).

It’s really not that good. Sure if you’re level 20 and use all of your spell slots on it it’s a decent sum of gold… but you’re also level 20. Go rob a bank or something.

DVDs were also commonly used as external data storage prior to flash storage becoming the predominant method. Anyone still have their spindle of dvds with a Win XP backup lying around?

Blu-ray doesn’t have that advantage. The only major commercial applications it has been used for is movies and games, and games are already breeching the size that even a 4k blu-ray can hold, and have long since required faster data transfer speeds than blu-ray is capable of(this is why even with physical games, the game has to be installed to the console)

Ehh… as someone that has seen it, it’s still not that big a deal. Sure, in still frames the difference is really noticeable, but when you’re actually immersed in the movie and the action and you’re not just scanning the scene with picture quality in mind, it really makes no difference to me.

$17/hr with a 2 hour commute is considered a dream job in your area? Goddamn

“You can’t. You had literally all of eternity to ask your final question, you could’ve used some of that time to come to terms with your death, but instead you immediately used up your question(and your remaining time) trying to cheat death. Goodbye”
