This is not really “not the onion” though…
Sure, the headline is written kinda funny with the “forced to use brain”, but I don’t think the story is wild enough…

It’s surprising, I’d thought he would be team shark. But I’m glad he’s finally answering all the important questions.

Perfect. When climate change makes the outdoors unlivable, but you still really really need your manicured green desert in front of your house. Love it.

Why are they using Word in an exam in the first palace? Like, to write an essay? Our non-pen-and-paper exams were all using some web platform that worked pretty well.

I was asking myself the same thing. This is a pathetic state of affairs… The only thing missing is that the google banner would now also acknowledge the Bing box and tell you specifically “don’t listen to the other popup!”.

Right? Where is he? He would have cleaned that place right up!

Man, I remember Idiocracy having higher production value… Wasn’t there monster trucks and stuff? The dialog is pretty much as I remember, though.

Thank you for sharing your experience and may the winds blow ever in your favor! Ahoy!

I’ve heard good things about tidal in regards to paying artists (more) fairly. Does anyone know more about the alternatives or has experience with them? Also in terms of the library size I’m not sure how the services compare…

Yeah, I’ve seen better strategic thinking…

Yes, if you reorder only the text and not the whole bubble it’s also correct. =)

In case you are serious: It’s probably not.
When you’re not careful with parallel processing / multithreading, you can run into something called a “race condition”, where results of parallel computations end up in the wrong order because some were finished faster than others.
The joke here is that whoever “programmed” this commic is bad at parallel progmming and got the bubbles in the wrong order because of that.
The image makes perfect sense if you read it in the order 3, 1, 2.

Thank you for clarifying.

Uh, watt?

“That funy feeling” by Bo Burnham

As many said before here, if you’re concerned go see a professional. But overall this sounds like your brain is just very keen on doing its pattern matching thing.

I think the most important aspect is whether you’re “suffering” from this or whether you just notice it from time to time and can shrug it off. If it’s the later, I’d keep an eye (or ear?) on it, but not worry about it too much.

To all of you reading this who are interested but don’t have home assistant (yet): I just set a timer for as long as the laundry takes. If I can’t go get it when the timer goes off I will place a “memento” somewhere (for example placing something on the ground in my way where it doesn’t belong) so I remember. The “set lighting to hell until I do it” solution sounds neat too, though. =)

It was. =)

PS: Just to stay on toppic for a second here: Fuck Bezos.

Like… With a cactus?

lol, I thought about writing it in a “gender neutral way” but it didn’t read as funny. Sorry for assuming your gender. ;)

But again with this statement: You are right, Ms. Crescendo.
