It’s not just a sig on the image, but on metadata as well. Harder to fake time + place if they implement it thoroughly. (I.e., they would have to make it only trust GPS and verify against an internal clock, I suppose, and not allow updating time and location manually.)
…including the date and time a photo was taken as well as its location and the photographer…
In July 2019, the frozen body of a man fell into a garden in a London suburb, believed to have been in the landing gear compartment of a Kenya Airways plane approaching Heathrow airport.
Living under the beginning of an approach into an airport, I’ve thought (just for fun) about the rare instances of hardware falling from the gear. I’d never thought about the chance of a body. I guess they really extend gear earlier than where I am, but I wonder how long it might take, on average, for a body to thaw enough to unstick from something after the gear are down and air is swirling around in there.
Ok, I always mistakenly assumed === was the identity operator in JS, too. TIL, thanks! As much as we like to poke fun at JS, every time I’m taught the rationale behind some aspect of it, I find it redeeming and even a little endearing.

I don’t see how anyone who’s paying attention to anything still believes in a god worth worshipping, if any god at all.
A magical Christmas tumor?
If he records his crimes, thinking it’s one more thing he can sell, is that more the grifter or the narcissist showing?
This is a masterpiece.

Well played.
Stores shouldn’t play Christmas music all year.
I’ve been trying to think of a good way to visualize this kind of pileup of arguments. I think a good visualization could be used to diagram legal outcomes as well as showing a network of supporting or refuting arguments about a debatable point. Anyone know of a word for this that I can finally search for the right thing (if such a diagram has already been developed)?
Like, in my mind, I want to draw a bubble and write a statement in it, like “abortion”, then another bubble with whatever happened like “law passed that upholds right to abortion” with an arrow pointing from it to the “abortion” bubble and maybe a checkmark on it to show support. Then a bubble, “court xyz challenge” and an arrow, with a ban/prohibited symbol, pointing from that bubble to the other arrow. Then another bubble with “appeals court rules blah” and an arrow from the new bubble to the one it affected, but with maybe a check or a banishment symbol on the arrow to show its effect supporting or undoing the other one. But any such diagram would need to provide a way to see an overall outcome, like tracing from the original bubble outward until hitting an unrefuted bubble to show that it’s ultimately upheld, or otherwise not. Something like that.
Um, is…um… w- what??
This interpretation is valid. But I recently learned to see it a different way.
If you’ll humor me, please consider this. Since Santa knows if you’ve been “bad or good,” he knows the other reindeer have been bullies to poor Rudolph. And, while a red glowing nose is cool, it’s not a useful fog light. It’s just not.
So Santa “uh oh!” had an emergency where, for the first time ever, the fog was going to be too thick all over the world to deliver presents?
Nope, he set up Rudolph in a position to “lead” his peers in a situation that maybe needed a little help but was not, in any way, a true, worldwide magic-assed Santa emergency. Santa knew how to guide his reindeer to accept each other. The story of Rudolph was not about Rudolph doing something to prove himself. It was about recognizing a Rudolph in need and helping him rise to the occasion to bring him closer to his peers in a way that could heal division.
Rudolph isn’t about how to triumph as a Rudolph. It’s about how to be a good Santa.
(Edit: For everyone who already thought this was obvious in the story, thanks for letting this Rudolph have his epiphany anyway.)
This thorn in my side is from the tree I planted.
Covfefe has been a pretty fun word, as well as referring to “Mooch” as a unit of time.
How many empty beer bottles can you count right now?
I think eating a chunk of raw onion was about the only time normal food made me feel as bad as if I’d drank too much crappy liquor.
I wish everyone would abandon reddit because of the terrible treatment it showed its users and contributors, some of whom should be considered amongst its builders.
But news alone of a web site having an outage isn’t really a technological discussion any more than news about a traffic jam would be.
