Well, my first Mass Effect lore video has now topped 100k views, which, considering that for the first several months it didn't get more than a few hundred, is more than I expected.

It would be impossible to zero in on some of the posts related to this without it coming across as mean-spirited, but it really seems like a lot of people online are putting "Kick me" signs on their own backs
The whole of Bluesky when they see our Black Friday posts.

There seems to be a general consensus all-time NBA starting five- MJ, MJ, LJ, TD, with the only real dispute over center. That got me wondering about building an all-time starting five that never played against each other, ie, no overlap in their NBA careers.

You see, a pimp's love is very different from that of a square, Charlie Brown.
I find your lack of faith disturbing, Charlie Brown.

In retrospect, it really did not seem necessary for the good version of Lex Luthor in "Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths" to meet the Justice League completely naked. He must have been doing it for love of the game.

The Dick Cheney hunting incident in which he shot attorney Harry Whittington in the face occured February 11, 2006.

This is too late to be canon to the Halo universe (which was released 5 years earlier), but early enough to be canon to that of Mass Effect, which was released well over a year later.

This reminds me of those videos of people lining up to get slapped by Japanese wrestling legend Antonio Inoki. I don't even read The Witcher, but after reading this, I'd go to a Comic Con to be rudely dismissed by this guy.

I have never heard of tipping a bakery, but the fact that OP is talking about buying 10 boxes of pastries tells me that this didn't happen.
ok help me out if you went to a popular bakery and bought 10 boxes of their pastries which regularly sell out and did not tip and then heard the staff making a sarcastic comment about how you did not tip who's the asshole here you or them.

Bidets are the real-life equivalent to the three seashells
All right, y'all, help me out. This is a bidet, right? (It's in my airbnb.) So, the idea is, you poop in the toilet and then...crab walk a few feet to your left, with your pants down? And stick your butt down in this thing? There's no seat, as such, so you're just...hovering your butt down into it?

This is true. In my experience, it's clearly useful in software engineering, with the caveat that you need to already know what you're doing.

It is also useful for more mundane lookup purposes, with the other caveat that much of the use could have been fulfilled with google pre-enshittification.
I think a lot of people who are reasonable AI skeptics are saying things like “I don’t see a reliable use for LLMs in areas I’m an expert in” and that those folks are quite distinct from people who argue that LLMs don’t have capabilities that they clearly do

Real talk- if bioware does end up getting sold off, unless it went to someone like Amazon, I'd be willing to throw a bit of money in whomever bought it.
