Giving some serious Azula energy there.

But then you'd also need a "both" button.

Which is why Nepenthes is an objective moral good.

Hey, let's give some credit! We'll also be handing Earth back to the Earth's first owners: the cyanobacteria!

As someone who got fucked over so hard by Amazon that I am now boycotting them and every single subsidiary for life, this is false. They have always been shit, but their customer service has become so thoroughly enshittified that if you actually have a problem, you might as well just accept whatever loss you've fallen for.

Hence why I tell my employers that I'm good with h That option (see the last bit of the comment to which you replied) the problem is that this method of 2FA is not implemented commonly, and so most systems I've encountered bug out when trying to set it up.

Many of us are none of these things.

And don't forget required 2-factor authentication, in an age where that becomes 1-factor authentication as soon as someone has your phone, because both factors are accessible there!

2FA is utterly worthless in the age of smartphones, and whenever my employer tries to implement it, I refuse and tell them that, if they want me to do 2FA, they can either provide me with a work phone, or they can give me a USB key that is just going to sit in my desk drawer.

Yeah, in the most pedantic sense, the correct answer is "a", for "Louisiana"

You find yourself suddenly 3 meters up in the air, which is sufficient to change your personal gravitational acceleration by 0.00001 m/s^2. As you can imagine, it is not fun to fall 3 meters. You do anyway. (Alternatively, the mass of every human-made object on the planet gets deleted into the ether, reducing the total mass of earth, but that's not the simplest solution)

That is, canonically, almost exactly what Saruman's robes are supposed to look like:

"I looked then and saw that his robes, which had seemed white, were not so, but were woven of all colours..." - Gandalf the Grey, The Fellowship of the Ring

Iridescent like an opal.

Let's get this community more active! Having just discovered this and the parallel view community, hopefully we can get a more consistent stream of these images coming in! Also, I'm not sure how to make my gifs auto-loop. Any ideas?

 

Took a quick, poor-quality photo of my library as tribute. Does anyone have any recommendations for Free and Open Source software which can create stereographic images? I can just throw them into Paint (or the Linux equivalent, as I'm mid-switch right now), like I did here, but I would like to find software that does the processing quickly.

 

My time has come!

The above stereographic image is for cross-eyed viewing (most stereograms are wall-eyed, so you may need to put your finger in front of your screen until this one comes into focus)

This is an image of Honolulu, Hawaii, published by NASA. Note Diamond Head (the volcanic crater) in the south.

Here are some other stereopairs published by JPL:


Wheeler Ridge, California


Mount Saint Helens


Salt Lake Valley, Utah


Wellington, New Zealand

 

In response to a comment in another thread where someone asked if anyone was keeping track of all of the illegal and unethical crap being pulled by the Orange Fascist-In-Chief and Melon Husk, I am posting this as a P.S.A. and resource for everyone finding it difficult to remember every crime. There is at least one journalistic source still committed to the ideal of integrity in the face of fascism. That this beacon of the fourth estate is a satire website is a sign of the timeline we have found ourselves in.
