"billionaires don't know how to toast a pop tart" sounds like something you could dismiss as hyperbole but no, this is literally true; elon musk's biography has a segment about how the man stuck his fingers directly into a hot toaster

A screenshot from Walter Isaacson's 2023 biography on Elon Musk

"In late 2002 Musk arranged a meeting with a tank
manufacturing company in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
He and a handful of engineers arrived the night
before, staying at a Holiday Inn Express. Chris
Thompson and another early employee named
Steve Johnson, seeking to impress Musk, woke
early so they would already be eating at the small
breakfast buffet when the boss arrived.
"Elon comes down, and he walks over to the
breakfast bar and he picks up a package of Pop-
Tarts," Thompson said. "And the funniest thing to
me was the fact that most of us take Pop-Tarts
for granted. He was transfixed. This was like a
scene out of 2001: A Space Odyssey, when the
apes examine the monolith. It was clearly the
most fascinating thing he had seen that morning."
Eventually, Musk realized that Pop-Tarts were best
enjoyed toasted. So he opened a package and put
two of them into the toaster, Thompson said. Only
Musk made the rookie mistake of inserting the
pastries horizontally, rather than vertically. When
they popped back up, he had to stick his fingers
into the toaster to grab his breakfast. This was a
problem, and at about six in the morning Musk
proceeded to scream, at full volume, "Fuck, it
burns! Fuck, it burns!" Two older ladies at the
front desk, nearby, watched in mortified silence."

if i were gonna play FF8 i would try to find a happy middle ground between the native 240p image where Squall's face is an illegible jumble of pixels and the 1080p upscale where his face has become clear but is too sharp to match the rest of the environment

i agree with you to an extent but i also think that the hardware limitations of vintage consoles sometimes inhibited what the developers were trying to display for instance, this tank in PS1 Ghost in the Shell at 1x is just a blurry mess but the model can be seen clearly when upressed

wild how so many people who otherwise show appropriate skepticism towards tech companies that make grandiose claims are gung-ho to pass laws that would mandate every car be installed with a speed governor that has a 25% error rate insideevs.com/news/801020/...

A car can pass the EU’s distance-based ISA test while still making repeated mistakes at actual speed limit changes.

Under the current EU approval process, ISA systems are judged by their accuracy over a driven distance, but Thatcham says that does not reflect what drivers experience when the limit changes. In its real-world testing, the worst-performing car scored 91.3% accuracy by distance, but only 74.3% when judged at each speed-limit change, meaning it showed the wrong limit roughly one time in four. Even the best car fell from 98.39% distance-based accuracy to 90.3% event-based accuracy.

"The Year of Living Dangerously" isn't my favorite film & it isn't really even an LGBT film but i've always adored Linda Hunt's fantastic cross-gender role as photojournalist Billy Kwan. Hunt's performance forms the soul of the movie & her Academy Award was well deserved
