The why files feels very AI generated now, both visuals and story telling.

Same. I will have no phone before I upload my face to verify access to a website, or before I delete my VPN. I will download Wikipedia and go live offline in a hut, idgaf.

I don’t think the public key is going to help that end user recover the message.

What are the ends in this end-to-end? Someone more clever than me can make this into a joke.

Wow! I only very recently found techdirt.

I think it works as instructions on how to face Cthulhu. Or maybe explains deer reacting to headlights.

Edit: I was reading ‘face’ as a verb as in 'to confront", instructing you to face the unrecognizable.

On the other hand I guess it could be a suggestion that you hide any recognizable facial responses to something.

Handmaids tale makes my tummy hurt.

For sure, androgynous would have been closer to what I think the text says.

When I did my second listen to Murderbot, it was after I read the Imperial Radch series. It’s interesting to compare Breq and Murderbot.

I just did a relisten to the murderbot diaries recently. It’s funny, I know murderbot is explicitly not gendered, but I always pictured a female murderbot because I thought the front cover depicted a robot shaped coif that looked like a 50s typically female style. After they cast a male person for the TV show I was surprised and loked again, and I guess it’s just robot neck armor, not robot hair, lol.

I’m going to stick with my head cannon on this one though. Disillusioned asexual 50s housewife protector and professional ass kicker.

Also the drop falling. It’s going to splash everywhere when it lands!

Well, this is how you horde them for when they become novelties at some point in the future.

What kind of glue? I’m sure Elmer’s doesn’t cut it, some epoxies are probably toxic-- I haven’t hurt myself, just really curious.

Whose alt am I? Need to reconstitute the soul back into one now.

Hmm, that’s probably pretty good actually. Crunchy and mushy. Or else my constant low grade anxiety causing stomach issues has me off kilter, idk.

Give it a minute or two, wave around to shake the drops off and then lightly feel to make sure it’s not tacky. Im pretty impatient, so sometimes I don’t wait long enough.

I learned a lot from this set of instructions and the tips at the end. Especially capping/sealing and base coats. They’re talking about nail wraps – which I love – but I have use the same techniques with just normal color as well and had a lot more success.

I see some people mentioned gel. I have never successfully used gel, I’m just aware there are extra steps and a light or something to cure, but if you find that the polish is taking longer than 5 minutes per coat to be dry enough to pet the kitties, then you might have a gel polish. Those really require the light to cure (if I’m understanding correctly).

Believe it or not-- ice bath will set them faster. Also, recommend thinner costs and let each dry before the next.
