Pareidolia is seeing faces and other stuff that isn’t there. Do you mean trypophobia?

It will be when it’s 19:71 o’clock (look closely)

It’s a pretty old image. For example, see this iFunny post from 2020. Maybe the artist really liked drawing bras and overlooked some things when copy-pasting the bottoms. Or another poster later wanted to add representation of their undershirt/diaper combo at 8.

I’m AMAB and cis but didn’t say “Hell yeah” to most of these. Is everyone so bad at finding such images or…?

Is this when lobotomies were common or did that come later?

It captures the defining elements of the sport: concussion risk and non-spherical object that I refuse to call “ball”. And rugby can be Gehirnerschütterungsrisikorotationsellipsoidsport 2 or Rotationsellipsoidgehirnerschütterungsrisikosport.

Is this going to be 3D-printed? Won’t the resolution cause detail loss? Are you going to add any surface finish or paint?

I wasn’t saying the exchange for money happens on Valve’s servers, but it’s Valve who oversees everyone’s inventory. You could hack the game and run a third party account server and give yourself all the knives but they would not be recognized by Valve and thus worthless, unless you convince exchanges that your server is trustworthy and has assets behind it.

I mean, there’s DRM but that hasn’t stopped them ever before…

Do they stand to lose something if they switch? I don’t understand CS:GO economics, maybe there is a sanction-evading money flow via weapon and skin trading on Valve’s servers?

What’s preventing Russians from hacking Counter-Strike and making their own “Кантр-Страйк” servers?

That’s insane… Can’t a website owner require bots (at least those who are identifying themselves as such) to prove at least they’re affiliated with a certain domain?

I don’t know what “12,181+181” means (edit: thanks @[email protected], see Edit 1) but absolutely not 1.2181 × 10¹⁸⁵. That many requests can’t be made within the 39 × 10⁹ bytes of bandwidth − in fact, they exceed the number of atoms on Earth times its age in microseconds (that’s close to 10⁷⁰). Also, “0+57” in another row would be dubious exponential notation, the exponent should be 0 (or omitted) if the mantissa (and thus the value represented) is 0.

Don’t sort by top if you want a high comment/upvote ratio. There are very good posts in the “Active” section with lots of upvotes.

The first word cannot be “SHE” because E has been revealed

MP4 is decent at this, it’s the camera’s fault for writing critical information at the end and not retrying on SD write errors. A bad couple of frames is still preferrable to losing up to 20 minutes (yes, that’s the split size, and it loses 5 seconds in between).

My camera shat out an MP4 without a moov atom and VLC nor anything else could play it :( Not even when inserted in the middle of a valid file of the same format.

Yes, ffplay can interpret it as rawvideo when asked but so can it /dev/random

Eww, that’s a kitschy video

The bill could be a playable CD too if you don’t care about folding, or add bends around the central square. The widest rectangle that can be cut out of a CD and still retain a bit of the data area is about 108×51 mm, as opposed to approx. 156×66 mm of a $1 bill.

But yeah, NFC or just printing the data is more viable.

I have a 2013 phone running Android 13. Sony Xperia Z, found in e-waste in 2023 in great condition (except for dust in the camera). I used it a lot and even replaced the battery, although that didn’t make much difference, it just kept overheating and discharging like crazy on modern websites. The notification LED broke in a peculiar way (likely shorted driving transistor, burning it out within hours) and so did the vibrator. Recently, I dropped it and the back shattered but I still carry it every day, although now it’s a secondary phone (can’t get some apps running on my primary one although both are degoogled). It has a 32-bit processor, noisy camera and no fingerprint reader, but a 5" 1080p LCD, MHL (HDMI over microUSB), NFC and headphone jack. And a mediocre FM transmitter that can be enabled with custom drivers for the Qualcomm chip. It was covered in Janus Cycle’s video on monoliths.
