No, dude, the scorpion *said* it was gonna stop stinging me during the river crossing. Buy every stock.

Did you ever wonder why 'calculus' refers both to a type of math and the plaque deposits that form on teeth? I have, so I looked it up.

Both come from the Latin word calx, meaning limestone.

The term came to be associated with math through the use of stones or pebbles for counting.

It came to be associated with dental plaque because it's a stony material that forms on teeth. (It's also used for other mineralized secretions of the body, like kidney stones).

So, there it is. Calculus is counting with rocks. Calculus is rocks on your teeth.

I laughed out loud.

I never played #Halo - always been a #Playstation guy. But I am enjoying the series on #Netflix.

However, the fact that the TV version of this #Microsoft exclusive property features an intrusive and unwanted #AI called #Cortana, that can't be turned off and occasionally crashes the system it's running on has not gone unnoticed.

dear mastodon:

i'm just gonna throw this out here in the unlikely event that someone who knows about these things can help me out.

my dad gave me his old Seiko Sportsmatic from 1967, series 7625-7000. he put a different bracelet on it at some point, but he's still got the original -- minus the end links, unfortunately.

i have scoured the entire internet to the best of my ability but absolutely can NOT find end links for this thing. for other models, yes, but not this one. i don’t know if the originals were curved or straight, but they should be 18mm.

here are some photos of the bracelet. it looks a lot like the style they call "beads of rice," but the bits are usually rounded, and they're flat on this one.

i am stumped. anyone?? please boost!!

They will tell you

but if they see you
taking any steps
to protect yourself
from this virus
they will tell you
that this virus
is really just a cold.

With both #Eurovision and the Papal conclave happening in May, it’s gonna be a big month for Europeans who love overly complex, confusing and dramatic ways to select a winner that are run by international bureaucracies, include smoke for dramatic effect and feature excessively extra outfits

People like to think Asimov predicted the current technology known as "artificial intelligence". They are wrong. It was Douglas Adams when a computer spent untold resources just to return an answer which is both irrelevant and poses further questions.
