  • Man seeks millions after being shot by police in game-related swatting incident

  • With these stories I often wonder how people even get the personal details about you that would allow them to send somebody to your physical address...

    he was playing "Rust," a multiplayer video game, on his personal computer when another player asked for access to his computer to check that he wasn't using any cheat codes.

    Melendez obliged the other player's request.

    Wat?

    Like... why?

  • It is of course well known that careless talk costs lives, but the full scale of the problem is not always appreciated.

    For instance, at the very moment that Arthur said, 'I seem to be having tremendous difficulty with my lifestyle,' a freak wormhole opened up in the fabric of the space-time continuum and carried his words far far back in time across almost infinite reaches of space to a distant galaxy where strange and warlike beings were poised on the brink of a frightful interstellar battle.

    The two opposing leaders were meeting for the last time.

    A dreadful silence fell across the conference table as the commander of the Vl'hurgs, resplendent in his black jewelled battle shorts, gazed levelly at the G'Gugvuntt leader squatting opposite him in a cloud of green sweet-smelling steam, and, with a million sleek and horribly beweaponed star cruisers poised to unleash electric death at his single word of command, challenged the vile creature to take back what it had said about his mother.

    The creature stirred in his sickly broiling vapour, and at that very moment the words, 'I seem to be having tremendous difficulty with my lifestyle' drifted across the conference table.

    Unfortunately, in the Vl'hurg tongue this was the most dreadful insult imaginable, and there was nothing for it but to wage terrible war for centuries.

    Eventually, of course, after their galaxy had been decimated over a few thousand years, it was realised that the whole thing had been a ghastly mistake, and so the two opposing battle fleets settled their few remaining differences in order to launch a joint attack on our own galaxy---now positively identified as the source of the offending remark.

    For thousands more years the mighty ships tore across the empty wastes of space and finally dived screaming on to the first planet they came across---which happened to be Earth---where due to a terrible miscalculation of scale the entire battle fleet was accidentally swallowed by a small dog.

    Those who study the complex interplay of cause and effect in the history of the universe say that this sort of thing is going on all the time, but that we are powerless to prevent it.

    'It's just life,' they say.

  • Isn't it lovely how headlines are about sports while Europeans are seemingly still committing to the goal of spending five fucking percent of their gdp for their military? Schools, hospitals, universities, railways... all that will suffer for tanks and the headlines are still just about how somebody doesn't mention that ludicrous display last night to some jerk.

  • Burning Gas Pollutes So Much, Dirty EV Battery Manufacturing Evens Out In About 2 Years

  • Okay, so that maybe was a bit imprecise... I had heard that argument before, but essentially only from people who weren't into the topic really. I was just curious if there was a serious source for that. Like, more serious than uncle Günther who flies a national flag in his garden.

  • But the guardian article mentions the points but comes to exactly the expected conclusion:

    The data we have leaves little doubt that resource extraction will be significantly lower for electric cars compared with their petrol or diesel equivalents as recycling increases.

  • EV adoption can't happen in a second. If more EVs are sold, countries can just expand grids and charging networks with it.

  • So... a dictionary is too slow and the Internet is too local. Any other means I should use to look up meanings of words?

  • Granted, the "overall" search also gave me at least some of those trousers, but generally it seemed to favour the distinction.

    I hate AI and related developments just as much as the next guy... but that seemed to have worked just fine?

    Or do you just have to ask questions in German for AIs to work reliably?
