I know art is hard, but conceptually it would be cool to see a skilled artist take a child’s drawing (and perhaps explanation) and turn it into a detailed piece.

Idk if installing a gas range DIY is actually dull. Seems kinda cool to me.

This is my first time reading about this. I’m very curious to hear a lawyer’s thoughts on this.

If you change the bootloader to some other software, how could the company be expected to provide support for something they may have no knowledge of? Suppose I develop some theoretical SnowsuitOS and then complain to Samsung support when it doesnt run on my smartphone? It seems very likely that some conflict in my code could be causing problems, as opposed to an issue with my hardware.

I feel like to require this, you’d have to prove that the software is functionally equivalent to their software, right? (Side note, isn’t this problem undecidable? Program equivalence?)

If you replace a wheel on a tractor you can pretty easily define what it should and should not do. Determining equivalence seems simpler with a physical situation. On the other hand, I’m pretty sure program equivalence is not a solved problem.

My point here is that I don’t think it’s reasonable to legally require a software company to offer support without limits, because they cannot be sure that there is not an issue with the (unsupported) software you are using.

What’s the signal issue? I use signal on my desktop. Can you not create an account without a phone number? I thought they added usernames a while back.

Edit: nevermind, it appears you do still need to provide a phone number to sign up, even with the usernames and desktop clients.

I’ll watch another underwater scifi film. I watch them all.

I’m confused. At a sit down restaurant you can’t just walk into the kitchen and make your meal, yet that is a standard place to tip.

They’re part of Department of Homeland Security. NSA is part of Department of Defense. So they’re actually not, unless you meant this figuratively.

Blatant discrimination

I’ve always thought it was so funny when people say tHe aLgOrItHM like it’s a bad word or something. I know they mean social media & marketing, but it’s funny to think that they’re very concerned about something like bubble sort.

Don’t these people ever want to retire? Enjoy your final years? So weird.

Hard for me to gauge “lesser known” without knowing what you’ve seen, but here are some I have enjoyed:

• Raw (2016)
• I See You (2019)
• The Autopsy (2022) - not feature length
• Hell House, LLC (2015)
• Pontypool (2008)

I feel like the one thing missing from this is that the term is supposed to sound like how a snot-nosed kid would say it, hence the letter r being dropped.

You can do t-shirts for $10 with even smaller runs than that. I’ve done batches of 50 or less at $10 a pop going with a local screenprinter. This is usually 1 or 2 colors.

Thanks! I didn’t realize the difference between AC and DC.

Ah I see. You can tell I don’t know much about this lol. I figured it was like DC.

I don’t know much about circuits but could you switch the polarity to make this work?

Not sure what they’re referring to, but there are a number of warnings when you install an APK and you have to enable a setting to allow you to install an APK. It’s not challenging or restrictive, but a user who is unfamiliar might be discouraged from installing an app this way after seeing the warnings.
