60 years of spaceflight and we can still barely get to orbit.

God we’re shit at this, aren’t we?

Does that extend to filling in missing letters, like Hangman or crosswords?

Not for Revolut. App only.

Why wouldn’t they lower their head to vomit? Everything does…

ShareX has an OCR feature. It’s a tool for taking screenshots and recordings, with support for configurable workflows which can do all sorts, including extract text from the snipped area and copy it to the clipboard.

Doesn’t it actually require you to sign up to an account on some app hosting platform, rather than self host it?

There are plenty of them, just wait!

Gmail labels are great but they’re not universal, and are easy to strip out.

A lot of sites:

• Don’t allow +'s in email addresses
• May let your register but then not login
• Are aware of labels and simply strip them out

I have an email address I have only ever used with labels but still get spam to the non-labeled address. Spammers and email harvesters are very much aware of this trick, so it only works on legitimate sites.

No.

CP Car on the Great Dome Location: The "Great Dome’’ (Building 10) Date: Monday May 9, 1994 (The last day of classes)

Throughout the years, one of the favorite sites of hacks has been the "Great Dome,‘’ the large classical dome that sits atop Building 10. In May of 1994, inspired hackers created what might just become one of the most famous Dome hacks of all time, by placing what appeared to be a real MIT Campus Police cruiser on top of the dome, complete with flashing lights.

The car turned out to be the outer metal parts of a Chevrolet Cavalier attached to a multi-piece wooden frame, all carefully assembled on the roof over the course of one night. The hackers paid special attention to detail. Not only had the Chevy been painted to look just like a Campus Police car from all sides, but a dummy dressed up as a police officer sat within, with a toy disc gun and a box of donuts. The car, numbered "pi,‘’ also sported a pair of fuzzy dice, the license number "IHTFP,‘’ an MIT Campus Police parking ticket ("no permit for this location’‘), and a yellow diamond-shaped sign on the back window proclaiming "I break for donuts.’’

People first began noticing the hack early in the morning, just before sunrise, when passers by spotted the flashing lights on top of the building.

Local people, reporters, and camera crews began to gather around 8, smiling, talking, taking pictures, and just generally watching as MIT Physical Plant began the slow dismantling of the car. Several helicopters even came to look, circling close around the Great Dome.

By 10 a.m., the car was gone — but not from the public’s eye, for the media took care of the rest. Not only did the local TV stations air footage of the car — some of which later wound up on national news — but the AP story (available on the Web to MIT people via Athena) spread to newspapers around the globe, from California to Korea and even Israel. If the hack’s goal was to amuse and entertain — the purpose of the vast majority of hacks at MIT — this hack was among MIT’s most successful.

Here at MIT, students also seemed to appreciate the hack. On Monday evening, a slide at the Lecture Series Committe (LSC) movie read "MISSING: one white and blue patrol car. If found, call x3-1212.‘’ The number is, of course, the local number for the MIT Campus Police.

As an interesting side note, though the television broadcasts reported a wailing police siren in addition to the lights, witnesses at the site insist that there was no such sound.

Sorry Smeagol.

Reddit explicitly allow bots; Spotify does not - that’s the difference.

That would be a completely different piece of software. It didn’t check their pitch or their tonality or their beat. It was barely an AI.

All it did was listened to the music.

So yes if he had written a completely different piece of software that did something completely different he could have pitched it completely differently and the outcome could have been completely different.

Why is this lengthy process preferable to using ublock on Firefox?

Huh. I seeresults for both versions when googling, but it appears it was indeed originally doctor.

Weird. It’s dentist, in the UK. It didn’t click that’s what they were alluding to until I read your comment

Try gifski, best tool I’ve found for dealing with gifs these days and getting consistent quality with low file sizes and good compatibility

Imgur started redirecting direct media calls to their website based on the referral header.

Basically if you didn’t visit the imgur site recently they will redirect you back to it when trying to directly view an image or video.
