Reminds me of the “moose stuff” bit from Family Guy:

I was trying out Mullvad Browser and clicked on a Discord link and it launched the Discord app on my computer.

I was shocked that a security-oriented browser would launch an external application without warning by default. Even Chrome prompts the user first.

What’s a “pun’kin”?

I’m guessing it’s a quantity of eggs, but Google isn’t helping.

Reminds me of Outer Wilds. Excellent game.

A friend of mine once downloaded something malicious to his Linux machine and wasn’t worried about it. Then some time later, while browsing his files from a Windows machine, saw it and was like, “hey, what’s this?” Oops.

He’s a tech savvy guy, so I’m guessing the fact he had downloaded it himself really let his guard down.

We should combine their names like Hollywood couples:

Musk + Trump = Mump

Hah, neat. That reminds me of how the biosphere project is called “Biosphere 2” because the first biosphere is Earth.

I wish Boost understood the collapsible spoilers.

On my client, it’s all expanded and I see all the formatting characters. It looks/works great in a browser though.

How are other VPN services able to do port forwarding without having this problem?

If you want to see an apocalyptic political satire black comedy film that explores this concept, watch Don’t Look Up (2021).

Americans in general aren’t following along on their own

This was also shown on election day when people googled “did Joe Biden drop out”. Many voters had no idea Kamala Harris was even running for president.

Add a model rocket and call it a missiletoaster.

For those who don’t know, this is Philomena Cunk, a mockumentary reporter.

I watch a streamer who mastered speed running dozens of NES games. He says Battletoads was the hardest game to learn. Just getting through the game, not even pushing for a fast time, was extremely challenging. Much harder than TMNT 1 or Ninja Gaiden.

Nice doggie!

Yup! Just last week it was revealed that they would be doing their adaptive suspension that way: https://www.motortrend.com/news/bmw-adaptive-suspension-connected-drive-subscription/

Years ago, I used an extension called Tree Style Tab. It’s better than just vertically displaying tabs. New tabs open as children, and you can collapse branches, so things stay organized when you have a ton of tabs.

Reminds me of when Facebook wanted people to send them their nudes to prevent their nudes from being spread. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2017/nov/07/facebook-revenge-porn-nude-photos

Years ago, a pedophile posted photos online with his face swirled, but police were able to unswirl it:

I have no idea who the guy in this photo is.

An example I found: the string of digits 0123456789 occurs at position 17387594880. In this case, it took 11 digits to describe where to find a 10-digit number.

So I think such an algorithm would technically work, but your “start digit” would be so large it would use more data than just sending the raw file data. Not to mention the impossible amount of computing power needed.
