#IHIPNews: #WTF! Trump Making It ILLEGAL to SPeak Out Against Him
wtf
Die Pandemie als solche ist längst nicht mehr Thema und doch kann ich mich noch immer aufregen, wenn ich in Fernsehbeiträgen Leute gezeigt bekomme, wie sie damals Corona-Tests mit Masken mach(t)en, ohne den Bügel der Maske so anzudrücken, dass die Maske richtig passt(e).
#WTF #corona #maske #idioten
Holy shit people.
Hollywood couldn't have done this better.
I don't know what else it will take for Americans to rise up.

"Off By One" by XKCD comic (mirror bots @xkcd @xkcdbot ) - Off-by-one errors are so common in coding that each coder and reviewer should be alert for them. But this solution is a bit like giving up on a whack-a-mole task and just blowing up the front lawn. Can an explosion crater be considered landscaping? https://xkcd.com/3062/ #software #engineering #tech #oops #WTF

Explanation+transcript from ExplainXKCD at https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/3062:_Off_By_One
transcript:
[Cueball faces Megan and Hairy. Cueball points towards a computer behind him]
Cueball: Any time an integer is stored or read, its value is adjusted upward or downward by a random amount between 40 or 50.
[Caption below the panel]
My new language almost completely eliminates off-by-one errors.
title/mouseover text: It does come at the small cost of a LOT more off-by-40-or-50 errors.
explanation:
In programming, off-by-one errors are very common. An off-by-one error is an error where the value of a variable differs from the intended or expected value by 1. This can arise from a number of sources, including mistakenly using a ≤ (less than or equals) comparison where a < (less than) comparison was needed, or vice versa (or ≥ / >); confusion between zero- and one-based indexing of arrays in code, either by convention or by definition in the code; or fencepost errors (needing the number of values in the range, say, 4 to 6, inclusive, but using 6 - 4 = 2 as the number instead of 3).
Cueball has attempted to combat off-by-one errors by introducing off-by-40-to-50 errors, which is arguably even worse[citation needed] and may actually lead to off-by-39-to-51 errors, depending on whether "between" here is inclusive or exclusive. [...] It may also completely leave the bounds of the array, causing out-of-bounds errors.](/proxy/post_attachment/1585486/b3cc1928da.png "XKCD comic #3062 \"Off By One\" https://xkcd.com/3062/

explanation from explainXKCD https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/3059:_Water_Damage
transcript:
[Ponytail stands to the left of Cueball. She is looking down at a meter of some sort in her left hand, and is holding a clipboard in the other hand.
Ponytail: The crust under your house shows signs of water damage. Is there a subduction zone nearby?
Cueball: Uh, I think there's one off the coast.
Ponytail: Oof. I was afraid of that.
[Closeup on Ponytail who is pointing to a diagram of subducting faults.]
Ponytail: Subducting hydrous minerals carry water down into the mantle, causing melting in the overlying crust. If you let this go, you'll have volcanoes everywhere.
[Cueball, with his hand to his chin, looks at the diagram. Ponytail, holding her equipment, is standing behind him.]
Cueball: Is there any solution?
Ponytail: Giant lithospheric dehumidifiers. But the installation won't be cheap.
Cueball: Oh no...
title text: Your homeowner's insurance might cover it, but be sure to check the subductible.
explanation:
Similar to 3037: Radon, Cueball is once again getting his home inspected by Ponytail. This time, she alerts Cueball for water damage, normally caused by leaky pipes. [...] Upon further investigation, Ponytail discovers that Cueball's home is near a subduction zone, [...]
An example of an area with many volcanoes caused by subduction is the Ring of Fire along the coasts of the Pacific Ocean.

What if the agenda is to actually crash markets so they can buy up what y'all lose and cheap too?
Maybe they want farms to fail also so they can buy them cheap too.

Edited 26d ago
The app that gives us updates about our car popped a notification up on my phone this morning that said in large captital letters: "Frontal Collision Warning".
This was 10 minutes after my husband left in said car to drive to work.
I, of course, freaked-the-fuck-out and tried to ring him.
But he didnt answer....
Tried again..... still no answer
My brain devolved into a mess, and I almost started hyperventilating....
Tried again and .... he calmly answers.
Never felt so damn relieved to hear his voice!!!!
Apparently, a frontal collision warning on the app *just* means that something is blocking the sensor and we need to clean it.
This is a terrible choice for the name of that notification if you ask me. Why couldn't it just be "Sensor warning" or something?!?!
Like seriously, they may as well just have named it "Hey, your husband's dead, LOL.", cause that's what my anxiety-ridden-brain read it as.
We all know Elon Musk wasn’t on the ballot last November, so why is Musk presenting himself as if he won the election?
