Yes, but I haven’t seen him since he killed two people, partially because he’s been in prison for the last ~28 years.

The classic “five senses” works well enough for the basic understanding of how we interact with the world, but doesn’t actually hold up under much scrutiny. You can apparently get up to 12 depending on how you want to define things.

The idea of five classical senses dates back at least to Aristotle, himself a rather classy guy. In De Anima (Of the Soul) he argues that, for every sense, there is a sense organ.

…

Let’s tweak Aristotle’s definition of what a sense is just a bit. Instead of a sense organ, each separate sense really only requires a different kind of sensory receptor. In the skin alone, there are at least four different kinds of sensory receptors: those for touch, temperature, pain, and proprioception (or body awareness).

And it was inside a huge (10k+) batch of pictures documenting the entire California coastline. Basically nobody had even seen it at the time she, or at least her lawyer, threw a fit about it.

I do. I’ve been reading Techdirt for over 25 years, so I’m sure I read the original post where the term was coined at the time it was first published.

US-centric answer: Murder doesn’t have any time limitations on being charged.

There are always going to be holes in the law, so it probably wouldn’t be difficult to find some example of a horrible crime that finds a loophole in this, but the general idea is that the worst crimes have no statute of limitations.

Misdemeanors are usually fairly short, many felonies are longer, sex crimes are often (but not always) exempt, and murder has no limit in any state.

It’s carbon all the way down.

The last time I went back to visit my parents, I just sat in the living room and listened to the quiet. They’re on the outskirts of a small town, and there is zero traffic. The house stays at the right temperature with no fans or other mechanical help. The nearest neighbor is much further away than at my suburban house.

“The most powerful force in the Universe is compound interest.”

You don’t know how to use the three seashells?

I’ll admit, I only made it through part B. This is where you think that because you are the only one to have this thought, it must be a simulation. It doesn’t actually mean that, but that’s irrelevant anyway because you aren’t: The Anthropic Principle (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic_principle) is a well-known part of cosmology and philosophy.

Living at only one point in time doesn’t have any greater meaning. Flip this the other way: imagine you have a minimal amount of hand-eye coordination, and you can hit a dart board, but not enough to hit a specific number. So you throw a dart and hit a 3. The chances of that are 1/20, and the chances you hit the very specific spot on that 3 is astronomically smaller. That doesn’t mean it’s special, it’s just where you hit.

Your observations and experiences aren’t meaningful because they’re planned, they’re meaningful because they’re yours, and you couldn’t have them at any other time.

If you fold a big New York slice, it can also be a taco.

And if childhood cartoons determined our actions, whole generations of kids would have wiped out the roadrunner population by dropping anvils on them (or attempting to, anyway).

It’s weird that this has become such a controversial opinion. The internet is supposed to be open and available. “Information wants to be free.” It’s the big gatekeepers who want to keep all their precious data locked away in their own hoard behind paywalls and logins.

If some clanker is going to read my words, it’s a very small price to pay for people being able to do the same.

there isn’t technically a recession

And if the economy were shrinking, would the US government statisticians actually release reliable data that says so?

They take on a number of characteristics of the host species where they gestate. Probably depends heavily on that?

Definitely acidic, though.

Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man is strictly catch and release.

While they’re at it, let’s include image stabilization. Shaky cam was the worst film fad of the era.

Close up of a cute puppy named PC, “please pick me.”

Switch to a little kitten named Mac, “no, pick me.”

Zoom out to the full picture, both animals are locked in amazon-branded cages, two greasy thugs watching over them, named Google and Meta: " we don’t give a fuck which, but you’re going in a cage with one of these two."
