Kumasta ka? Or hello. The famous Filipino witching hour. Just on dusk, everyday, go outside, sweep up some leaves and litter and burn it. Worse still is the fireworks around the new year holiday. Was in Manila that time of year when my son was 18 months old. He was admitted to hospital with a severe asthma attack. He's fine now btw. Keep on burnin!

Don't accuse people of spreading bullshit or assign ownership of bullshit to them. We're ALL totally invested in bullshit of one stripe or other. It belongs to all of us. I'd hate for you to attribute some of MY bullshit to some other person or organisation. My bullshit is yours and yours is ours. When the crops all fail, we can spread any superfluous bullshit to the fields. When the waters rise, bricks of bullshit can stop the tides. Peak Bullshit will never eventuate. Inevitably the universe will fill with bullshit as it inexorably craps itself towards its end. Bullshit everywhere. Unending. I'm tired.

Comment 3/4 of 4/5ths of sweet fuck all (Score 4, Insightful) 34

We're just getting to grips with how our own star and.solar system work. From there we look at local star systems and apply the same insights. Then we make the magic leap to understanding things at a galactic scale. Out knowledge is already insufficient so we need to invent stuff like dark matter to explain the rotation of galaxies and cosmic lensing. Fuck I wish I could live for another thousand years ... Just to see how it pans out.

Comment don't know where else to post this - PayPal sux (Score 3, Informative) 26

I have a 23 year old PayPal account. Originally created for some eBay and Amazon purchases. Sat latent for years except for some occasional use (sending payments, not receiving) until .... I received payment from an online service. I sold some stock soundtracks for background music. It was less than $10. Can I have it? No. They've locked my account until I send them some id and biometrics. Well, enjoy the $10 you bunch of cunts. I imagine I'm but one of very many. Imagine if I robbed an online service. Or you. Or lots of us at once, since they do this to lots of us at once. Just a few cents here and there, but all day everyday. Everywhere. Anyway, back to the trouble at hand...

Comment wtf were they doing? (Score 2) 55

Overpowered? More juice than a Pi Zero? (You don't say). Don't they have Pico or Nano or some incredibly small, low powered shit now at a few dollars per board? How many scooters are we talking about? A Pi 4 just seems massively over spec unless they're crunching data from the camera. What size sd cards do they have?
