  3. Re:Switch to Windows mail? on Mozilla May Separate Itself From Thunderbird Email Client (techcrunch.com) · · Score: 1

    Having just tried to do something with them, gmail's filters are a bucket of overfermented cunt.

    A lot of things that are inconvenient or shitty but don't actually kill you when your age is barely positive have hidden benefits (or at least inheriting only one wacky gene does).

    It's why they still exist.

  5. WTF on Skip the Picks; Expert Uses Hammer To Open a Master Lock (csoonline.com) · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    Doesn't totally twatting the fuck out of the lock leave the bolt(s) still engaged?

    Oh hang on, it's a padlock. Where not only the body of the lock, but the actual bit that links to the door is completely exposed.

    Try this one neat trick with an angle grinder!

  18. Re:You've got to be $#!77!N9 me on Swarm Robotics Breakthrough Brings Pheromone Communication To AI (thestack.com) · · Score: 1

    The summary and the article use "artificial" and "simulated" interchangeably.

    Am I the only one who thinks they aren't the same thing at all?

    Seems to me they might as well model it mathematically and cut out the wooden table stage.
