I stared at it for like 3 minutes and suddenly it flipped and all made sense, like a proper optical illusion.
The metal comes down and to the right, then bends back to the left. The shadow is the reflection off the metal. The metal is coming down and out of a hole. The white area is a completely flat surface.
True signs of a sociopath.
True, but nothing else looks like money. Lots of things have a similar shape as the barrel of a gun.
Money is also quite detailed, with a known list of configurations. Any counterfeit would need to match the details in those known configurations extremely well. Finding that match with a high degree of accuracy is a fairly well understood and common engineering task. This is not the same task as identifying anything that could possibly be used to represent money with a high degree of accuracy, which is essentially what would be needed in the gun printing problem.
Somewhat related, the US Gov provides play money that you can print for your kids, which I found helpful to teach my kids about how money works. https://www.uscurrency.gov/sites/default/files/download-materials/en/Printable-Play-Money.pdf
Maybe that was lost in translation. Maybe what they meant to say is they love cunnilingus.
I was really disappointed to see Vanguard listed as one of the biggest investors in Trump Media. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/blackrock-vanguard-big-purchasers-trump-231532778.html
Next up: Smith and Wesson is granted a copyright for DRM on STL files.
Taking this purely as an engineering task, how is this remotely possible? I can barely begin to imagine how restrictions on what can be printed could be set. Am I missing something obvious? Some kind of contextual understanding of the object seems to be necessary… please don’t tell me their proposed solution is AI.
In any case it will never work because 3D printing is so easy for makers to do from scratch, so any solution will fail to prevent printed guns from being made.
Again, this is just the pragmatic engineering angle. Please don’t respond with political arguments.
Party like it’s y2k
No joke, I hesitated to even click on the thumbnail. That’s what this bullshit modern internet has conditioned me to do.
As a Samsung tab s owner where the OS was always >= 1 year behind in releases, this was my first question.
A friend of mine was arrested on felony charges while he was sick, so they put him straight into solitary for medical isolation. Once he had surgery and recovered, they relocated him to the panopticon area. He said it felt like getting out of jail, he was so happy just to not be in solitary anymore.
In the age of deepfakes, no way I’d make that video and submit it with all the other personal details I’d be putting into the application forms. That’s a recipe for ID theft.

Murder by definition involves planning.
False. If this were true, “premeditated murder” would be redundant.
If somebody comes home to find their lover in bed with a stranger and shoots both of them to death, those were both murders, and they were not planned for.
There’s a Chicane interview called “so, it’s 1995” where he struggles to not eviscerate some of those DJs, talking about times where the artists who made the music were making a fraction of the money the superstar DJs who were playing the music made.
Seriously. How did he not understand that he’s the gimp in this relationship? Trump is going to dominate and abuse him. How does he not understand that’s what he signed up for?
