I didn’t, but as I said, I don’t feel like explaining it more than I did.

It’s the idea that water has memory, and that memory-water has healing abilities. I’m not going to explain it more than that but there’s no shortage of online sources to both explain it and disprove it.
Beware the binge trap! For I have succumbed to it time and time again.
Absolutely, I’m only commending the effort. It can’t be easy just to gather this many clips from different sources, let alone edit them like this to both highlight the problem and maintain the viewer’s attention - all without saying or explaining anything. It’s obvious from just watching it. It’s a masterpiece.
The Sinclair video is expertly edited.
Psychology, and sensible evolved repulsion from waste. MinuteEarth made a video about this, which you should watch (it’s only 2:53), but I’ll quote a key part: “we can trick ourselves out of our irrational disgust by doing irrational things like letting recycled water sit in tank for a while before we drink it.” Do see the full video for context.
You mean the thing any credit card issuer does anyway?
Alright, good to know.
He did the backflip, all that was left to do is snap the bad guy’s neck and save the day. So close!
But I gotta say I really don’t understand what’s happening in the top right image, or the order of events.
For generic contactless payments at shops? Or some closed system that only works with other PayPal users?
Until earlier this year, I could make NFC payments with the app of my credit card company. AFAIK contactless payments on Android were never locked to Google Pay/Wallet. But I have no idea why there’s no competition in this space. I’d expect e.g. PayPal to have something, but if they do I never heard of it - and I did look once, briefly.
I suppose it’s conceivable that there’s a bug in converting between different representations of Unicode, but I’m not buying and of this “detected which language is being spoken” nonsense or the use of character sets. It would just use Unicode.
The modulo idea makes absolutely no sense, as LLMs use tokens, not characters, and there’s soooooo many tokens. It would make no sense to make those tokens ambiguous.
That’s what any brainwasher would have you believe, isn’t it? ;)
I feel like cars make enough noise even without honking. I am, however, heavily brainwashed by Not Just Bikes. Cities aren’t loud, cars are loud.

I thought: stylized lol
I haven’t seen this meme format before, what the heck happened there?
As a daily reader of SMBC, I can confidently tell you this rule is a suggestion at best.
If someone shared ROMs 20 years ago and stopped, Nintendo wouldn’t be able to do anything about it today. The statute of limitations does apply.
But if someone started sharing ROMs 20 years ago, and continued doing it every day until today, then that means they shared ROMs yesterday. The “crime” still happened yesterday.
Edit: but they care a lot more about preventing it from happening tomorrow.
I don’t think that’s a good argument. In a more general case, if you didn’t pursue your rights 10 years ago that doesn’t mean you can’t get your shit together and do it today. Maybe you’ve lost some of what you deserved but you still should get future benefits.
As for statue of limitations, if it keeps happening today then it doesn’t matter when it started. They could only talk about things that happened in the past year - it’s still being hosted and shared.
To be clear, I’m not taking Nintendo’s side, all efforts to preserve these games are amazing and I love to see everyone keep it up :)
QI (the British panel show) discussed this in an episode during social distancing where they had to perform with no audience: https://youtu.be/EKVD3n6Atl0 (it’s the first topic of conversation, not the whole episode of course)
My favourite bit is:
Alan: “I had a radio show in the late 90’s, and we were so funny that the people at the BBC comedy said we could use those laughs on nearly every other program we make. […] That was the best compliment I’ve ever had in my whole career. ‘We’ve kept your laughs, and we’re using them on other shows’.”
