    No, not that. That thread is gone since it wasn't supposed to exist anyway.

    Honestly it's been dark and pretty miserable all day. Winter is definitely here.

    Had the exact same thing here, had to walk to my lecture through it. However the rain isn't a big issue if you have a waterproof coat on, even if your beard is dripping by the time you get to the lecture.

    Why it is even here.....


    Also, I don't think comparing ones self to a toilet seat is a great way of presenting yourself, if I went into the bar below me right now and went up to a girl and said 'I get more ass than a toilet seat', I'd get beat up and be fined around $750 dollars and be put in jail for around 2 months, which i know a few of you want to happen....

    Also, when you realize a toilet seat, an inanimate object that is in attractive, gets more ass than you, you start to question life, asking questions like 'how does a porcelain shitter get more ass crack than me, a man with genitals..' And 'how ugly must I be to get less ads than a toilet?'...

    If you think about it, toilets get more action then us........
    What a weird world we live in, where man is outsmarted by pieces of porcelain and plastic

    But hey, we are all luckier than a toilet in a bus stop....

    Turing machines!

    Code:
    (require picturing-programs)
    (define *clear* '_)
    (define *set* 'X)
    (define (rule-110 xs)
      (cond ((equal? xs (list *set* *set* *set*)) *clear*)
            ((equal? xs (list *set* *set* *clear*)) *set*)
            ((equal? xs (list *set* *clear* *set*)) *set*)
            ((equal? xs (list *set* *clear* *clear*)) *clear*)
            ((equal? xs (list *clear* *set* *set*)) *set*)
            ((equal? xs (list *clear* *set* *clear*)) *set*)
            ((equal? xs (list *clear* *clear* *set*)) *set*)
            ((equal? xs (list *clear* *clear* *clear*)) *clear*)))
    (define (threes xs)
      (define (threes-iter xs acc)
        (if (< (length xs) 3) acc
            (threes-iter (cdr xs)
                         (append acc
                                 (list (take xs 3))))))
      (threes-iter xs '()))
    (define (apply-elementary-automata f xs)
      (map f (threes (cons *clear* (append xs (list *clear*))))))
    (define (run-elementary-automata f acc iters)
      (if (= iters 0) acc
          (run-elementary-automata f (cons (apply-elementary-automata f (car acc)) acc)
                                    (- iters 1))))
    (define (automata-image f acc iters)
      (let ((output (reverse (run-elementary-automata f (list acc) iters))))
        (build-image (length acc) (length output)
                     (λ (y x) (if (eq? *set* (list-ref (list-ref output x) y)) (name->color "black")
                                  (name->color "white"))))))
    
    What we have here is Rule 110, encoded in Racket. Rule 110 is a one-dimensional cellular automata that happens to be Turing-complete, meaning it is (in theory) capable of doing anything your favorite programming language can do.

    Using google cardboard. There is a program called fulldrive that gives you a vr user interface for browsing vr content and launching apps. It has a coub app built into it. It shows a list of coubs in a 3d interface spiraling off into the distance, tilt your head to the right once and it moves to the next one in the list and vice versa. The one directly in front of you is auto played on a loop (as per how coubs work). I guess it is like watching them on a projector screen.
    Usually endless content websites don't tend to keep me occupied any longer than i want them too. But in vr where you cannot see anything else its really easy to spend a lot of time watching them.

    Well no, but that's different.
    He described walking up to a random girl and making a goofy joke, which would somehow lead to him getting beat up and thrown in jail.

    I think he was referring to "You Reposted In the Wrong Neighborhood."
