New cars:

• Dodge Charger R/T 426 Hemi ‘68
• Dodge Charger SRT Demon ‘18
• Lexus LFA ‘10
• Mercedes-Benz 190 E 2.5-16 Evolution II ‘91
• NISMO 400R ‘95
• Porsche 911 GT3 RS (992) ‘22
• Tesla Model 3 Performance ‘23

Personally I’m looking forward to the LFA

I thought The Changeling looked really good. It premiers September 8th. The beginning of the trailer had me completely disinterested but it gets way more interesting around the middle.

That would ruin my entire day

I’m definitely in the “for almost everything” camp. It’s less ambiguous especially when you consider the DD/MM vs MM/DD nonsense between US dates vs elsewhere. Pretty much the only time I don’t use ISO-8601 is when I’m using non-numeric month names like when saying a date out loud.

I don’t get it, but I’d like to. Would you explain the difference for me?

“Kyle” is “X Æ A-Xii” for delusional billionaires

And it wasn’t just a 4KB “stick” of RAM or something, it was literally magnetic rings threaded onto wires called Magentic Core Memory. Further, 4 KB implies that it was 4096 bytes, but it was actually 2048 “words” consisting of 15-bits (+1 parity bit) [source]. 2048 words requiring 16 bits each means 32,768 magnetic rings weaved onto tiny wires. Oh, and another fun detail about magnetic core memory is that if you read a value, I.e check to see if one of those magnetic rings is set to 0 or 1, that is a destructive operation. So if you wanted to read without deleting, you have to read and then immediately rewrite.

Is this one of those “toxic relationships” I’ve been hearing so much about lately?

I didn’t know either so I put it through tineye. It’s David Koresh

I looked it up so thought I’d share

31536000 seconds == 1 calendar year

Maybe a dumb question, but why would this warrant an evacuation? I get that it’s contraband, but it’s drugs, not a weapon. Unless they thought since one disallowed thing made it’s way in that there could be other stuff (weapons) as well?

Edit: or maybe they thought it could be anthrax at first, which makes much more sense as to why they would evacuate

This and the post link appear broken for me. The source url works though: https://www.ft.com/content/8c247cb9-c14b-4fd6-94d6-300655c35c1e
