@milk That's not furniture. That's saw dust held together with glue and screws.

No. That's the way Brits have to define themselves, cause they got beat in a war.
Romanians basically worship USA. I, and many of my generation, grew up with American movies and shows, we were steeped in American culture, American values. You'd have Romanian children growing up dreaming to be Americans.

@mushroom_soup Isn't The Odyssey like an ancient Greek story? I didn't study it either, but what am I missing here? Why would someone think it's an American thing?

@icedquinn Ever since I played around with lucid dreaming about 15 years ago, there's always a tiny bit of awareness in my dreams. It's why I can usually figure out "wait, you're not supposed to do that" when something stupid happens in the dream, before I wake up. And it's likely why I don't get something like hard drives speaking or being happy.

If something really crazy does happen, I basically realize it's a dream, and I instinctively start nudging the dream into rational territory.

But the downside to lucid dreaming for me has always been that such nudging also causes me to slowly wake up. Conscious interventions like "this didn't actually happen, I didn't actually wash my hard drives" work well to calm the nerves and turn a nightmare back into just a dream, but I just wake up fairly quickly after.

Had a dream that I gave my hard drives a bath... literally dunked a dozen HDDs in a tub full of water. A few 2.5" ones somehow had a translucent case, and I could see them being half-filled with water.

What the hell was my brain thinking?! I don't even know if I can call this a dream or a nightmare. The whole thing was definitely shocking enough that, half-way through the dream, my brain realized "what the hell did I just do!". The rest of the dream was me trying to calculate what are the odds that if I let them dry out, that they'll work again.

All I can say is, I've never woken up and be more thankful that it was just a dream.

@Curvin I've seen only a handful of clips of her, but every time it's an example of her being dreadful at it.

Moral of the story: don't touch grass. Weird shit happens.

@j Wasn't there a Man In Black joke about an alien who had testicles in his chin? This reminds me of that.

@goo Maybe, but your bush isn't the Bible bush.

@goo
>God's voice came from a burning bush
Ironic, since if your bush gets burned, all you'll be left with is apparently "pedo" material.

This is probably my favorite evolution of this meme so far.

@grizzlywhisker @j
No. Studies have shown boobs sag more with age when women wear bras than when they don't.

When your body notices it doesn't have to put in the work to keep it working well (because of outside intervention) then it stops doing it. That's why your body stops producing testosterone if you start getting it by other means, or a woman's body doesn't bother strengthening the tissue that keeps boobs firm when they wear bras.

We literally have the word "slave" from slavs. They're the original niggers.

@drahardja
While I agree that some of those examples this person had to deal with should be taken more seriously, "Deny, Defend, Depose" is now directly linked to the idea of assassinating someone. A bit more serious than being harassed by someone screaming at you.
It's like comparing someone threatening to key your car, to someone shouting "Heil Hitler" next to you. A phrase directly linked to a genocide draws a bit more attention for me.

Nobody has the resources to keep YouTube going. Doesn't help that the platform is a mess. Everybody complains how much disk space the video content uploaded to YouTube costs, but at the same time YT offers a shitload of codecs and encode qualities for video and audio.

Streaming on YT is probably a disaster for them. Everything gets re-encoded several times over. You get one realtime transcode to h264 during streaming, and then once finished it gets reencoded again to h264, then to vp9, and maybe even av1. With resolutions from 1080p down to 144p.
YouTube's inefficiency drives me up the walls every time I think about it. If you want to see me rage, just mention "YouTube codecs". Heck, just mention YouTube...

@j Yeah, I know. It's a shit rebrand.

@maxmustermann
If the watermark is small enough, you might foil it with just adding a smidgen of blur over the entire image. For now, we won't know until this starts getting adopted by devs, and leaks start coming out. Then we can start analyzing the footage for what actually gets inserted into the frames.
For all we know for now, Denuvo could be lying out of their asses, and just rely on people blindly believing them, and being afraid to leak anymore.

@j
At least he is lucid enough to be able to acknowledge that America was steeped in an "extremely left-wing environment". Most nutjobs I've seen were adamant that the Overton window was way into the right.
