One field it impacts is radio astronomy. We can already see Musk's satellites mess with it (unintentionally) and it's probably only going to get worse from here.

It didn't play the animation for me (only the comments made me realize it was meant to be animated).

Him just standing there NOT dancing made this so much more funny and relatable to me.

Assuming each user will always encrypt to the same value, this still loses to statistical attacks.

As a simple example, users are e.g. more likely to vote on threads they comment in. With data reaching back far enough, people who exhibit "normal" behavior will be identified with high certainty.

In my experience, it is good at simple to medium complexity regex. For the harder ones it starts being quite useless though, at best providing a decent starting point to begin debugging from.

There was a scandal about her sleeping with six (not five) other officers, sometimes while on-duty (while being married herself).

If you're talking about the base image, it's sort of real.

The player is YouTuber Max Fosh and it was a charity football event. However the incident (as far as we know) was not scripted and he actually tried hard to get a yellow card just to be able to pull off this stunt. You could probably find the video he made on it by searching "Max Fosh yellow card".

A pyramid is built bottom to top, not top to bottom. That's also one of the strengths of the ISO format. You can add/remove layers for arbitrary granularity and still have a valid date.

It is dead AND alive before you check and collapses into dead XOR alive when you check.

But yes, the short description also irked me a little. It's really hard to write it concisely without leaving out important bits (like we both did too).

We can do that with the first sentence and flip it into German, replacing "lighter" with "fireworks". We get:

"Sie dürfen die Feuerarbeiten nicht mit in die Luftebene nehmen."

A lot of German speaking communities online do translate English loanwords into German words, often with the intention to create this funny effect.

13/13 Vehicle with Crew 2 that costs one mana to cast

That's gotta be Death's Shadow but as a Vehicle, right?

That's a very optimistic view. Not licencing your patent to your competition is absolutely a profit driven decision that harms the end user.

There's even a word for that called scurryfunging.

About half a year ago (time is fleeting so I'm not sure how accurate that estimate is) my friend showed me the trailer to an upcoming MMO.

I don't remember a lot. What I do remember is that the art-style, including characters, looked similar to Minecraft/Hytale, but less blocky on the world side, characters did look blocky though, I believe.

I remember a scene where about 30 player characters invaded a small fortification with wooden palisade walls. At least one of the player characters had a staff or wand that would allow them to use fire magic.

I believe the game was advertised as one of those "you can build outposts anywhere" kind of games (the ones that never work out) where that group of 30 players raided one of those outposts.

I'm not sure what stage the game was at, but I believe it was a kickstarter campaign/looking for funding.
