Does a reboot fix the issue? Seems like it’s recognizing something as a phone number which isn’t a phone number. A reboot might reset whatever daemon is causing the issue.

If this is the marketing opt-out screen you know damn well they’re selling everything they can about your purchase and banking histories. I would change to a credit union post haste.

I was a counter battery radar operator. The systems I used 20 years ago had these neat things called electronic counter measures. I guess russia never got the message that it’s not a smart idea to radiate in a zone with anti-radiation missiles.

but I think (hope?) it’s a net positive.

Definitely a net positive. My friend and I were discussing something similar the other day. He rides motos and I ride downhill and we both learned via youtube. What used to be restricted to people who could afford private lessons or coaching are now available to people even in third world countries. It’s opened up a lot of new horizons for people.

If you take off everyone’s camp cloths and underwear in BG3 they show up naked at camp, including cutscenes some of which are very serious. It makes for some hilarious scene remixes. You can have them naked all the time if you want but I don’t want poor Astarion to have his dingdong cut off by a gobbo.

While that is unfortunate, this part made me chuckle:

basically making all the money I put into MW3 over the last 6 months even more worthless

Maybe he’ll realize cosmetics are just mining your wallet.

This is what happens when the bard rolls a nat 1 perception check while making his album covers.

Any corundum without trace elements is colorless. Corundum with trace chemical impurities makes the gems we know. Chromium gives the red to rubies, sapphire has iron and titanium, you can get other colors using vanadium or different ratios. Gems are neat.

Types of corundum maybe but I think that’s a stretch. Sapphire is (usually) blue Al2O3. Ruby is red Al2O3. Transparent aluminum is Al2O27N5.

Scotty would be proud.

Same for me. 650 hours in I’ve got the platinum trophy and golden dice and I started a new character yesterday (gith paladin) because there is still stuff i havent seen.

Wait until you hear about bicycles.

The name of the AI is gospel? How can this possibly go wrong?

It’s all crash fixes for anyone who doesnt want to read the notes.

Free is never free. They’re getting some value from you whether it be information or actual money.

What happens in the scenario where a super-intelligence just uses social engineering and a human is his arms and legs?

Seems like this game is determined to copy the avengers game.

There are several effects this could have on Earth and the atmosphere. The presence of these particles could affect how water freezes into ice in the stratosphere, and influence the size of stratospheric aerosol particles. They could also induce salt deposition on aerosol particles, and alter the stratospheric refraction of light.

These may seem like subtle changes, but they could have unintended consequences that we really ought to investigate, the researchers say.

Also vaporizing metals being added to the upper atmosphere isn’t exactly great.
