  • Frankenstein had it coming, dude was a complete prick

    the monster only wanted his maker to love him, and the monster only killed the people that Frankenstein loved as retribution

  • Anyone know what this symbol means?

  • imagine having the mindset that an image has that much power over you. I still remember the Dungeon Masters manual from d&d making adults absolutely furious!

    Iron Maiden cover art was pure evil energy

    but you heard them actually learn what is behind those images and it's just fuckin make believe nonsense turned up to max

  • I work 20ish miles from the hospital I was born in. I live probably 5 minutes from it driving. I have probably lived half my life here. I call it home but I live in a world that my younger self would never recognize. I was ultra poor growing up and now I mingle with the town elite and have one of the historic houses that is iconic for lots of people here.

    I lived 20+ years 300 miles away from my hometown and thought I would never live here again. But life is funny like that.

  • This is for people who have moved away from their home town or have lived in multiple locations long term. Do you ever forget where you are?

  • I have a good sense of direction and where I am. I rarely forget where I am. I moved a lot as a kid. Lived in in a bunch of different areas of Washington St.

    The sun and shadows will tell you so much about where you are. I was in Virginia for a few years. It was such a diffirent place, I never forgot how foreign it felt. At night, knowing where to look for the stars you know is also helpful. Even knowing which ways the wind blows normally can help.

  • What are you looking forward to or scared of in the future?

    Jump

  • IMO your fears are justified but if you look at it in a big picture way, the world is getting better for most people every generation.

    Sure we have lots of fucking stupid shit to deal with right now but its not like past generations didn't have something similar.

    I think what is happening right now is that the post WWII generation, that had it all in so many ways, are coming to grips with the fact that they are going to be dead soon. So you have these world leaders like Putin trying to reclaim the past with one foot in the grave.

    Big companies always win, its just reality. But they also always become so big they fall apart on their own. Just look at the first companies, nobody in their day would have believed they would have died. The West Indian Company, Hudson's Bay Company, even fucking KODAK!

    Humans being less social is nothing new either. We just all connected for the first time really. Once that wore off we are going back to a normal, it will probably be an up and down for a while but we are living in a new age of connection, not everyone is really interested in that and many of us are slowly finding the right place and right time to interact with other people.

    AI is a cruel joke. Automated and prediction are cool and shit but it will also move where the money and interests are. I don't really care about it and I think it will be background noise in 10 years, with most people laughing about what we though it could do vs what it does.

    Learn some more history, especially your own. We are nothing like the civilization of a hundred years ago. Just look at what the world was like right before WWI. Or go 50 years before that and look at what the US was like right before the Civil War.

    your last point is hard to disagree with but as you get older you will probably come to understand that it is just the feeling of being young and finally understanding more of what the world actually is like.

    Stay true to yourself. Look at the little things and remember that you don't have to follow the trends to be happy. Happiness is difficult to achieve and is a fight to keep.

    Remember to take time to deflate and consider what you have and what you want. Don't let the things you cannot control overwhelm you. This last part is a constant battle for me personally.

  • I think much was based on one side believing in a democracy and respecting being on the loser side of an election cycle and being naive about the other side being so willing to lie cheat and steal the seats of power.

    it's probably broken fo the rest of our lives

    all for fuckin Trump

    i fucking hate this

  • this is what I was remembering!

  • I'm trying to remember exactly but I think it was that if you can isolate a gold atom, you can bounce a laser on it and see the reflection with your eyes. Something about the reflection of gold and that being one of its interesting properties. Could be just my imagination though

  • Trump Kept Gold Club World Cup Trophy for Himself So FIFA Had to Give the Winners a Replica

  • only the 1% of supporters know the sport exists. So he can tell them he made all the best teams in the world come to his country and he will host their little tournament

  • people with good vision can probably see a single gold atom, I seem to remember that one useless fact about the smallest things we can see

  • eSIM Vulnerability in Kigen's eUICC Cards Exposes Billions of IoT Devices to Malicious Attacks

    Jump

  • Successful exploitation requires a combination of specific conditions. An attacker must first gain physical access to a target eUICC and use publicly known keys," Kigen said.

    it goes without saying.... physical access pretty much guarantees trouble
