I mean, the DIN hole was a standard size but it certainly wasn't a 'socket' and anyone who had a Ford Focus that needed a Mercedes-Benz writing harness to plug up their aftermarket radio knows what I'm on about.

DOD Imagery guidelines state that only color correction can be applied to "make the image appear the same as it was when it was captured" otherwise it must be labeled "DOD illustration" instead of "DOD Imagery"

Right? I thought I went crazy when I got to "I just used Generative Fill!" Like, he didn't just auto adjust the exposure and black levels! C'mon!

Well, if there's massive ecological collapse and mass extinction events abound, there's honestly no way to know if we'll survive or not. To claim we'll survive when climatic changes are currently killing off everything is the opinion of someone who uses the Bible as evidence of human supremacy.

Worst case, the centipedes will probably take over again... If they make it too.

My Dell XPS 13 (Windows) will kill it's battery if you look at it funny... Or don't look at it at all.

One time, I fully shut down the laptop and put it in my carry-on.

When I took it out after my flight, my bag was suspiciously warm and the battery was fully dead. Power management on Linux might be a joke but Dell is certainly the Carlos Mencía of the comedy club. At least I know my enemy now though. I unplug the battery to turn it 'off'.

Back in the day, when it was light-hearted things like Habbo Hotel raids, Triforcing, and secretly hiding CP in the images you upload so that other people help proliferate CSAM.

If you can't tell by that last part, I don't go there anymore. /b/ was never good and all that.

Every now and then, I check it out though. I'm obviously old and certainly not anyone's personal army so I look at a page or two of porn and gore and shrug, click out, and let time march onward.

You're over here asking GPT about "secret scientific research groups" but wanna point out that it's an English acronym? You could've asked Encyclopedia Britannica instead and gotten the right answer.

Secret scientific research groups? Lol. Anyone with a passing familiarity with government work knows about SOPs.

In my house alone I have two 2DSes, one 3DS, three 2DSXLs, one N3DS, and one N3DSXL.

I'm tempted to get a couple more but I've already modded the N3DSXL with a huge SD card and a ton of games. Personally I think the N3DS is more comfortable but I haven't wanted to transfer everything over to it.

You can retest as much as needed, really, and if you can't get your score up a recruiter can schedule you time with a nearby Ed Center if there is one for ASVAB classes to get your scores up because "some folks aren't test takers!"

I'm not saying that fuckstick Mcbangbang is by any means smart but a permanent disqual for low ASVAB? I ain't seent it before.

We've had inflation before and, on a historic timescale, we've had revolutions to correct that inflation. France existed for almost a thousand years before they had the big one.

Jason Statham is always Jason Statham...

Except in Revolver. He was Statham in a hair piece then.

Doesn't mean I won't watch everything with him in it though.
