So... I'm guessing China has had a bad year for fishing?

From a cold(-ish) room temperature to 11C away from a Bose–Einstein condensate. Refreshing.

Always fun to read about considering I live about 20' from a busy highway.

Because RFK hasn't pumped up those rookie numbers.

Well... not to be a gossip, but I hear there is some K holed jerk in upper management who is a consistent fuck up. I'm willing to bet most of SpaceX's failures flow from him.

Let's see... as the rockets fail they're both moving fast and they're breaking things (such as their payloads). Looks like another Silicon Valley success story to me! /s

It's funny how the monumental disaster of Brexit has become a molehill compared to what's currently playing now playing out in the United States right now. The UK's "Shoot your self in the foot" policies have been eclipsed by the "Shoot every vital organ you have because they're woke or something" polices of the US.

Hey now... let's be fair, it could be both.

What is the gray thing on the study balcony even supposed to be?

I think it's supposed to be a barbeque? That fits with the image generator mashing a study and a balcony or a patio.

Love the "study room" which is apparently a balcony too. Also one bathroom has two sinks and no toilet and one has two toilets but no bath or shower.

It's almost like repeatedly bullying and threatening a nation makes them less likely cut a deal with you. Weird.

 

Since there is no thread about this on Lemmy, I figured I may as well make one in case someone hadn't heard about it.

Anyway, a new app called Netpass has been released that allows Streetpass over the internet. The app is still kinda rough, a few games like Tomodachi Life have a minor bugs, but for the most part it works almost exactly like if you conventionally streetpassed someone.

 

So I was browsing SteamDB.info looking at the various games on sale when I noticed there were a bunch of games (usually from the publisher Hede, but there's quite a few others) listed as having a discount in the high nineties, yet still costing in the neighborhood of 30-50 dollars. Even odder when I go to the game's Steam, it's not listed as being on sale and costs the... "normal" price of $99.99.

I'm just wondering A) What the scam is here, B) How a SteamDB.info is getting $99.99 dollar game as costing 30-ish dollars when it's 97% off but at the same time it's apparently not actually on sale?
