Things like these are absolutely idiotic. Every single computer, be it a laptop or desktop or a phone, are able to produce randomness. Why in the hell would you trust a random website?

Cloth 1 year ago

Video game Hitman from 2000 had cloth. Mirror's Edge from 2008 had tearable cloth. And I am pretty sure they weren't the first.

Yes. The famous echo on Linux systems does not have it and therefore it's impossible to print the string "-n o p e", because -n will be interpreted as an option.

The real tragedy is that our processors try to win a bit more speed by sacrificing simplicity and therefore increasing the chances of such exploits. The other tragedy is that our operating systems are obsolete and have worthless security. Back in the day when UNIX was relevant, a hundred people could use it at the same on a mainframe with no fear of it breaking, now one person cannot safely use a single computer.

Mankind for some reason is blind. Doing CTRL F for the magic word in this Hacker News thread yields no results. There was a political conflict amongst Chinese people which had it's peak at the moment the virus appeared. If not for the virus, that conflict would have ruined China's image for decades and centuries to come.

Most cheap foods with chocolate already have little cocoa in it. The essence of chocolate is made up of three parts, a sweetener like sugar, an oil with a high melting point, and cocoa oil has one of the highest melting points out of plant oils, but is often mixed with cheaper oils like palm oil or coconut oil, which have a much higher melting point than most oils, but still not as high as that of cocoa oil. And the third part is the cocoa solids. As far as I know cocoa beans are both fermented and roasted. I think there are other plants suitable for making something similar to chocolate, turns out mango seed oil has a melting point similar to that of cocoa oil.

I often wonder if it's just my imagination or is it really like that. I am still not sure.

Unfortunately some humans are just violent in nature. Or perhaps most. When robots become as intelligent as humans, some people might enjoy abusing them like they once enjoyed abusing people of different skin color.

Meta Movie Gen 2 years ago

AI destroying mankind has always been a theme, but it's probably not going to be in the form of a physical war. This picture generation will probably have a very negative impact on mankind. Imagination is one of the driving forces of mankind, and so is our desire to realize the things we desire. When these generators become a common thing, human imagination and intelligence will start inevitably degrading. Nobody will bother painting pictures, making music, making video games or movies, when anyone can just see and hear whatever they want instantly. And people will brobably work all day long just so come home and pay to use these generators. This has the potential to destroy mankind by destryoing the human spirit.

And this will probably mark the end of Apache. All good things come to an end. I never even associated their name or symbol with native Americans. This is idiotic.
