it’s a play on the HD/4K thing. SD for televisions is “standard definition”, or what we had before HD: good 'ol NTSC.
Edit: sorry to hear about your med situation. Personally, I can’t do any of the uppers for this because they wreck my gut, and leave me feeling strung out at the end of the day.
Another meme here said it best: “Yes, urinating is something we all do but if you’re doing it 60 times a day, you may have a problem.”
Adderall for the adderall god.
I’m old enough to have been diagnosed with ADD, or I guess now that’s “ADSD”.
Whoa. I got the other neruodivergent thing where recalling to eat on time is a battle. I had no idea that swung the other way for some folks.
Indeed it is! It also comes up under autism too… the way these two diagnoses intersect is evolving in real time.
It also applies to chores and overcoming the dreaded “wall of awful”. It’s called “parallel work” or “body doubling.”
“Swedenmark” would also work.
20 years? More like somewhere between 30 to 40 if we count early WWW and the Gopher+Usenet that came before it. The GPL isn’t quite that old, but the spirit behind it sure is. If we count early home-computer clubs back in the 70’s (like the one that birthed the original Apple) or the ham-radio crowd that came before it, we can push into 50+ year territory, easy.
I hadn’t considered AI being a paywall around the whole WWW but now that you mention it, it kind of looks that way. I’ve opined elsewhere that social media companies (e.g. Facebook) are building walled-gardens to keep eyeballs and attention-spans locked on their brand of reality. This would just be another avenue of attack in that strategy.
Good god. Lemme guess, the propellant in that can are CFCs and they added lead to lubricate the spray since it kept clogging the nozzle. May as well add arsenic for flavor.
Which is amazing since pigeons are usually kinda shit at making nests:
It also looks like it’s a Kei car. We don’t do smart things like that here.

Being between the ages of 18-25 doesn’t count! At that age, you can practically eat pizza for every meal and outrun the drawbacks with minimal exercise and no sleep.
*x = dereference or “point to”. Treats the variable x as containing a pointer value. Evaluates to a variable existing at the address in x.
&x = reference or “get address of”. Evaluates to the address of x.
They’re complimentary operators, so *(&x) cancels out and is equvalent to just x.
I’m watching Hell’s Paradise right now. It’s clearly done on a decent budget, but the animators are pretty good at knowing where they need to focus that cash. Meanwhile, the story is actually pretty good. For something like a Shonen-style power-system story, there’s a lot more going on than just flashy martial arts. I’m enjoying this one, and am surprised I haven’t heard of it before last month.
FWIW, its getting the TFS abridged treatment, so maybe that’ll boost its popularity a little bit.
Yes. To be clear, all this makes them even stranger (and deeper in the closet?) than I previously knew.
Or a Moclan one.
All I know is that the thumbnail looks like a Portal map.
These ‘zipper merge’ vs ‘early merge’ arguments are really the worst. At the same time, the lack of consensus fully explains why merge zones like that are such a mess.
It’s been… how long?! Oh no.
