@JennyList @trans_rescue I'd buy one if I can get a zero ohm version. Say £20?
The new Starbucks CEO, Brian Niccol, is going to commute to the office 3 days a week by private jet.
Don't forget to take your reusable cup to the coffee shop!

I need help with an English word. A story told as a series of individual points of view, like Akira Kurosawa’s, Ran. Or in some wasys the book Dracula, but Dracula is just epistolary. There’s a literary term for this, right?
[edit] Not Ran (which is also a great film) RASHOMON! I composed this post after a long week of 12+ hour days on a tight deadline. I’m mortified! 😂
So no, the term I am looking for is not the Rashomon effect. I think I want there to be a term for this. Maybe I’m delirious.
Friend: What do you play games on?
Me: I play games on a switch!
Huh.
So, just now I learned that you can convert miles to kilometers with the Fibonacci sequence?
A mile is 1.609 kilometers.
The Golden Ratio, the ratio between Fibonacci numbers as they get large, is 1.618.
So, within about 1%. And large doesn't need to be that large, it's actually pretty accurate from about 8 onwards.
1 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 55 89 etc etc
5 miles is 8 km.
21 miles is 34 km.
89 miles is 144 km.
etc etc.
Kinda neat IMO.
They say big trucks are just a reality if you want to make deliveries in the city.
I say there's other ways to solve the "last-mile" problem...
There's your beer kegs—sorted.

The past year has been amazing. From marriage, to Pwn2Own to a Pwnie Award, I'm so grateful. I'm using the money I've won from hacking competitions, bounties, & RB for two ppl to travel & attend Hexacon, the premier offensive security con in Paris, France.
You do use the same safety protocols for both AI and Fae:
Never tell them your name. Always use a euphemism or pseudonym. Giving one your name will always end badly.
When you doubt of the authenticity of the presentation, always try to look at it from different angles and see if there are any cracks, seems, or defects. Rotating it is the easiest way to do this.
Never, under any circumstances, eat anything offered to you by one. Politely refuse as best you can.
Do not follow directions provided by one. They will lead you astray and into harm's way. This applies to all conversations. They love to lie and will do so with absolute authority and earnestness.
So cool! A one-pixel-wide font that exploits subpixels.
