The dating pool is functionally infinite, giving up is like the one possible mistake.

Apparently they are arachnids.

A quick search also seems to indicate that they fall under the umbrella of pest control, and the article suggests “they were on notice that there were prior issues of scorpions at the subject property”, so it seems like the hotel was reasonably expected to provide scorpion-free accommodations, lol

Today I learned there are ~40 species of scorpion endemic to California 😬 edit: the incident occurred in Vegas, not California, so I totally misread, but still!

FFS. If this kind of thing keeps up I am not gonna be surprised if some sort of ‘rapid response’ ends up being a thing where the caller gets a visit from law enforcement “just in case”

Hope that artist sues.

This is not the poop knife I was expecting

Touch typing. Like I said I cannot find any reputable statistics. touchtypeit.co.uk claims “according to research” it’s less than 20%, but does not actually link any specific research. There are some other sites like it that are trying to sell you a product and list a low percentage, but I can’t find any actual studies or statistics

There is an issue on the Mbin repo asking for that as an option if you are or know a developer with free time

From the article:

Your eyes are your mouse when using the Vision Pro. When typing, you look at a virtual keyboard that hovers around, and can be moved and resized. When you’re looking at the right letter, tapping two fingers together works as a click.

So they were working backwards to determine the inputs based off of the observed eye motion.

I have a much less modern VR headset and you can definitely still type on a regular keyboard while you’re wearing it. You can’t see the keyboard though, so you need to be skilled enough to touch type. I can’t find any reliable-looking statistics on it with a quick search, but it seems like that is not a very common skill

On the contrary, I’ve had a USB cable last multiple phones before. I think the trick is to avoid using it when it’s plugged in as much as possible. Another common pitfall is that microfiber (pocket lint) can build up in the charging port over months and years, resulting in a poor connection. You can usually remove this by turning the phone off and using the tip of a wooden toothpick to gently scrape out the lint.

I definitely think they should include a cable in the box though.

Not a la Eternal September

that “virtual keyboard” sounds awful, glad the flaw was caught quickly lmao I would just use a regular keyboard while in the headset, but I suppose that doesn’t work for most people who need to look at it to type.

Reads like the author moonlights for the Onion.

And if you are getting 7-9 hours and still having this issue, please ask your doctor about sleep apnea.

I like how you think. The fourth panel should be a fractal repetition of the whole meme

Well, I’m not an expert, but I don’t think they don’t experience it so much as their religion has trained them to rationalize it away quickly. I feel like this meme template sort of reflects this, and I think the anger you’d get from bringing the contradiction to light is primarily it

I suppose that means my original post was phrased incorrectly regardless

for some reason he’s viewed as the second coming of jesus fucking christ and I really don’t understand how the fuck those delusional religious folks managed to square that in their mind.

That’s the neat part, they don’t. Cognitive dissonance is one helluva drug

Missing ligament? Like because of genetics or something? That’s wild

Amusing that aside from the GPU TFLOPS the rest of it is a slight improvement if at all

Can you please leave the whole “responding when you’re not the person who was asked” bit behind, thanks
