From millions of dollars to under a grand: The dramatic fall of the NFT

That's easy to say with the benefit of hindsight in 2026. However, back in 2021, it was easy to say without the benefit of hindsight.

apparently, the T button dosent exist for some people

It aligns with the 'th' in with and (not surprisingly) thorn, but not the 'th' in words like there and than; for those, they should be using the eth, ð, which makes reading those posts even more irritating.

Popular Tesla model had 'raging high dump percentage' for mandatory safety checks in 2024
It's worse than that, the first safety inspection is after four years, not six.

AI is only opt-in
Not to take anything away from your overall point, which I completely agree with, but this may be a bit of a stretch. All of the "AI" buttons and features are - to my knowledge - on by default. They have made it a lot easier to change that to "off by default now and in the future", which is very welcome, but "only opt-in" is, again, a bit of a stretch.

Astronomers would notice immediately, as the stars would be in very wrong positions. The IAU is the primary reason why IT people have to hack around leap seconds.

Is there any non-zero possibility Musk was not doing a Hitler Salute?
Reply in thread
It doesn’t matter.
It REALLY doesn’t matter.
Best way I saw it expressed: If you did something that was NOT a nazi salute, but other people perceived it as a nazi salute, you would IMMEDIATELY apologise and walk it back. Given that Muskolini has not done that, he did indeed do a nazi salute.

Mount an ISO in Linux?

You probably know this already, but I thought I'd just mention here for OP and others: That's what the # at the beginning of the command implies (the command needs to be run as root), commands that can be run as a normal user are often denoted by $.

What even is fire?
What the vast majority of people would probably think of when they hear the word 'fire' is actually flames; flames are quite simply particles emitting light.
For an everyday example, take a campfire: The wood logs you see burning are at such a high temperature that they give off methanol (and other flammable chemicals), which is most of what's burning. Apart from the methanol being driven off of the wood, there will be other chemical compounds and/or larger clumps of more-or-less-burned wood that will be carried off. These larger clumps in particular, while very small, are nonetheless large and hot enough to start emitting light in the visual spectrum. This is essentially what a flame is: Particles emitting light.
Fire in and of itself is quite simply rapid oxidation in the presence of oxygen.
The above is, arguably, a gross oversimplification.
TLDR: Flames are particles, fire is combustion.

AMD warns of new Meltdown, Spectre-like bugs affecting CPUs
Reply in thread
Perhaps because it came from a Microsoft report. Maybe they only know of this being fixed in Windows? I would assume it'd affect all OSs but then again, I certainly do not know enough about these things to understand what's going wrong here.

What is stopping the vice president from ever murdering the president?

Also, impeachment. One would like to think that even today, a president-through-killing-the-president-while-being-vice-president would be impeached and removed by congress, but who knows.

Copy Fail (CVE-2026-31431) is a trivially exploitable logic bug in Linux, reachable on all major distros released in the last 9 years. A small, portable python script gets root on all platforms.
Worth mentioning that the fix was merged into 6.19.12 (and 7.0; probably also the LTSs, but I didn't bother to check those).
