    It is infact Graphics Interchange format. Not Jirafics Interchange format.

    I know the creator pronounces it Jif, but there are lots of people in the world who pronounce things wrong.

    I offer up “niche”. It’s actually not nitch no matter how many people say it like that.

    Lookit all the nerds I triggered. Popcorn time!









  • Calling it Autopilot was always a marketing decision. It’s a driver assistance feature, nothing more. When used “as intended”, it works great. I drove for 14 hours during a road trip using AP and arrived not dead tired and still alert. That’s awesome, and would never have happened in a conventional car.

    I have the “FSD” beta right now. It has potential, but I still always keep a hand on the wheel and am in control of my car.

    At the end of the day, if the car makes a poor choice because of the automation, I’m still responsible as the driver, and I don’t want an accident, injury, or death on my conscience.



  • And the problem is that people who are power hungry and only doing it to scratch that itch can’t be trusted to maintain a valuable community. That’s not the type of people they are.

    And people who create the content are moving to other platforms. I’ve deleted all of my reddit links and apps to reduce the likeyhood I’ll stumble across a reddit post. Also starting to take some of my better reddit posts and edit them to remove any valuable content, and post on Lemmy instead.

    Yup, they did a great job at driving away people who cared. Now they’re left with shitposters and spammers. The downside is they’ll still make a killing selling the free content everyone gave them to train AI models. But they’ll get no more from me.

    I don’t want to wish misfortune on Spez, but i certainly don’t want to wish fortune on him either. What a colossal idiot.


  • Subs have dual hulls so they can fill the void between them with water to sink, or air to float, but they don’t dive anywhere near as deep. Most regular naval subs operate above 800 meters. They only have to be below the surface of the water for stealth, not at the bottom of the ocean.

    This craft was a single hull design as far as I’m aware, designed with a rigid hull to try and counteract the pressure at the bottom.
