Particularly as this is causing huge brand damage to MasterCard/Visa. If there is someone else who should take the issue, you’d think they’d point the issue at them and dust themselves off.

They’re a lot smaller by comparison. Not a lot of places accept American Express (and the few that do tend to do it for an increased surcharge), where many more would take a Visa/Mastercard.

Bug.

The original bug was a moth in computer-relays.

Humans are squishy like bug, and behave semi-unpredictably like bug. Therefore, bug.

So where does that put people who have been electrified? Did they simply die of terror because they thought they had grasped a live wire?

Interesting. Always thought chewing gum was more like when you made “plastic” out of the caesin in milk.

Urine probably also helps flush things out too, so you don’t need to deal with as many infections from bacteria who also want a share of the nutrient slime gametes get.

And more proof is always useful. Science runs on it.

Equally confusing is the hen of the woods, which is not a hen, nor, in fact, is it an animal at all.

Sort of? Someone was editing his face to be more round and babylike. This was one of them.

On the bright side, the camera/Switch doesn’t use a proprietary connector, so you can plug a lot of cameras into the thing, and it will generally work.

It’s not like the DS days, where if you wanted to plug a microphone in in addition to your headphones, they had a special connector for the mic part.

Or as we like to call it, GNU/Gumanities.

Other animals get zoomies too.

You can get them fresh from the factory. Sure, they need 96 batteries each, but beats all that nasty wood and bugs.

Could also be that reports reached a critical mass, and it was automatically taken down for human review.

That implies that Britain didn’t intend those consequences. But Britain has mastered using starvation as a weapon of genocide, in particular by masking it as an “unfortunate” result of taxes and tariffs.

We do know that the British did try and get the Irish to renounce their heritage to receive aid during the famine as well. Some families had to renounce their Irish name and Catholicism before they would be given food during the famine.

:x is also an alternative to save and quit.

Equally valid for the facial expression you’d make upon finding that out.

Only sometimes. Other times, you want to add extra entropy, so you can have a nice hot dinner.

Both, of course.

Cloudflare’s is a corporate solution from the company that man-in-the-middles half the internet and makes me click shit every fucking time. I see it whenever I make the mistake of following a stackoverflow link.

It is also not very useful if you don’t use a PC. Every time I look up a Cloudflare-gated site on my iPad, I usually have to jump through a few captchas before it will let me in, if it doesn’t decide to be a grump and decide to put you in a sisyphean cycle of captchas, constantly refreshing without end.

Or if you use some software. I have citation software that gets stuck in the loop because Elsevier puts their journals behind a Cloudflare wall, and when it pops up the prompt to prove you’re not a bot, just refreshes straight into another prompt.
