Years ago, a pedophile posted photos online with his face swirled, but police were able to unswirl it:

I have no idea who the guy in this photo is.

It could be a joke that’s been around forever, but I know it from The Simpsons: https://youtu.be/4GzMizVAl-0
Speaking of palindromes, fun fact: “()()” is NOT a palindrome, but “())(” is.
The first one is like ABAB, the second is like ABBA.
An example I found: the string of digits 0123456789 occurs at position 17387594880. In this case, it took 11 digits to describe where to find a 10-digit number.
So I think such an algorithm would technically work, but your “start digit” would be so large it would use more data than just sending the raw file data. Not to mention the impossible amount of computing power needed.
I did this, and it was great at first. Then I needed more socks, so I bought another batch. Then I had a mix of worn socks and brand new socks. They might look the same at first, but if you take a closer look, the older ones are a little lighter in color and the texture isn’t the same. I later bought a third batch. So now I have a mix of new, old, and really old socks. It actually takes more effort to match socks now than when I had many different socks.
I see this advice posted all the time, so I guess most people don’t care if their socks on each foot are a different level of worn, but it bothers me.
I looked into litter box robots and decided to try a low-tech solution first. I got an Arm & Hammer sifting litter box for under $20.
Basically, you dump the whole litter box into an equal sized sifter, then lift the sifter and give it a little shake, then dump the waste.
I can completely clean each litter box in 10-15 seconds. It’s not fully automatic, but I have no need for a robot anymore.
You time traveled to the Middle Ages to avoid cars? That’s dedication!
Reminds me of a sculpture called “Karma”:
Why mess with cash and money laundering? Just create a large chunk of gold.
I’m pretty sure the serving PC needs to be Windows Professional, not Windows Home, so that might not work.
If you don’t care about owning physical copies of the games, you should look into an Everdrive. It’s a special cartridge that lets you play downloaded ROMs on your original NES.
Lol, that video shows you how to measure voltage, then multiply by current to calculate power. It totally skips over measuring current.
Hah. Whenever I am aware that I am dreaming, I try to look in a mirror. It always does something weird. Like one time my reflection’s eyes were shut. Another time the mirror was like a window to the real world where I could see myself sleeping in bed. That was trippy.
I’ll have to try looking at my phone.
It’s funny to use a Simpsons meme for this because in one episode, Homer finds Henry Kissinger’s glasses in the power plant toilet.
Yes, it’s profitable. They lose money on each sale, but make up for it in volume.
I got a decent motion-activated trail cam for around $50. It has no connectivity, so I need to occasionally transfer videos from the SD card. Works great.
Lol, that reminds me of Seinfeld’s taking vs. holding reservations joke:
The show Top Gear did a bunch of these. For example:
My guess is it’s either from that show or something similar.
For those who don’t know, this is Philomena Cunk, a mockumentary reporter.
