Yep, you caught me, I forgot to mention the very obvious detail that you shouldn’t repeat paths that you’ve already taken unless your back tracking take a new branch. But also, mazes and city grids are two very different topological spaces, so not really applicable anyway.

Think it through. That doesn’t really have any bearing. You follow a wall and turn right whenever you have the option. You’ll exit the loop the same way you came in and continue through the rest of the maze.

“Any corner will do, from there just keep making right turns. It may not be the optimal path, but it will get you out of the maze.”

A bee headbutting you is not necessarily an agressive act, could be just investigatory on the part of the bee. I’ve walked into the heart of a flowering shrub covered in hungry bees, during which they either ignored me or headbutted me. As long as “defending the hive” isn’t part of the bee interaction, they are usually very chill but remain very curious. I’m still careful when the headbutts happen because accidents happen and a confused bee tangled in hair may still sting. But I have also gently untangled a bee or two without anyone getting hurt.

Even when defending the hive, bees seem to prefer as little direct agression as possible. I’ve stepped into a clearing and suddenly found myself way too close to a wild bee hive and got stung exactly once by a bee that got tangled in my hair as I fled the approaching swarm.

I’ve also gotten a solitary wasp tangled in my hair, near no hive or any flowers, and gotten stung 3 times on one knuckle as thanks for setting them free. The bees have taught me to treat them with compassion and respect. The wasps have taught me to react with murder and extreme violence before they are even aware of me.

Both are pollinators though. So despite the animosity, I don’t go out of my way to wage war against wasps the way I do mosquitoes.

Who hasn’t wanted at one time to buy $37 worth of burrito?

What Mexican $37 or American $37?

Yes.

Interesting take about TNG “standing on its own”. Sure that’s valid. But the first few seasons on TNG aired concurrently with the TOS movies. It’s never occurred to me that TNG is anything but a continuation of TOS, it’s Even in the name, not a spin-off, not a reboot, not an alternate timeline (until many movies later), a continuation of a story about imperialism struggling internally with morality and existential philosophy (vs. evil empire fighting rebels). New shows are welcome to be spin-offs, reboots, and alternate timelines, but (for me) not TNG.

If you smell shit everywhere you go, check your shoes.

I personally don’t mind the reposts. What does offend me are the lies in the title text claiming ownership and originality.

Cite the deep magic to me witch. I 'member.

Sorry, hard to tell sometimes. I was afraid that I was too intentionally vague at first.

That’s literally the answer though. They used electricity to process aluminum in a new way and much much much more cheaply than was possible before.

They’re admitting how dull they are.

Electricity.

That’s an argument to be made, but I don’t believe that is true at all. Sending one car to check on the safety/welfare of one active threat seems an entirely reasonable balance of risk. An unverified active threat is not at all the same as a confirmed active threat. That should be obvious simply by the existence of “swatting” as a common term and act these days.

It is not the duty of police to protect people from eminent harm, they have argued this themselves in court. Their job is strictly punitive, again an argument they have made in court many times. They only pretend to “protect and serve” when it suits their agenda of justification for their over inflated budgets. This isn’t a public safety issue. It’s a class warfare issue.

It has nothing to do with the type of media and everything to do with the file system being used by Windows, FAT.

Slugs are related to snails so I’m just going to leave this here: The Snails and the Bees

So basically fungus and corals. That’s fair. That sheep fruit though, sounds like a sex toy joke.

What’s funny to me (and I know it’s just meant to illustrate, not be perfect) is that the static in your example immediately jumps out to me as somehow not quite right too, just like the elements you pointed out in the AI slop image. Like I’ve spent so much time in my youth in the presence of the cosmic microwave background as seen through CRTs that I can sense its randomness and noise characteristics. I can’t usually say why fake TV static looks wrong, but it always jumps out as wrong almost immediately. I’ve seen the same issue in lots of newer movies and shows set in the era of analog television, always immediately pulls me out of the story.

The issue isn’t about what it can and can’t do, it’s that it is CONSTANTLY attempting to step in and “fix” my spreadsheet in bizarrely inane ways. Why won’t it give me the “shut up and stay the fuck out of my way” option? There is no option to remove or silence copilot. That damn thing follows my cursor like a ring wraith after Frodo. It has already fucked up more than one of my spreadsheets without asking or being asked. If I hadn’t been paying attention, I might not have caught the absolutely bat shit insane edits it was making to simple and correct functions I’d already entered. No, copilot you don’t know what I’m doing. Clippy was less intrusive.
