Yep, and even when talking about living things it's not a clear distinction.

In biology, poison is a substance that causes harm when an organism is exposed to it. Venom is a poison that enters the body through a sting or bite. In a bunch of medical fields though, poisons only apply to toxins that are ingested or absorbed through the skin and that definition sometimes carries across to zoology.

Venomous creatures are poisonous by most definitions because venom is a poison. But if the distinction is useful in a medical or zoological context then they're not.

tldr: The pedantry of eg. correcting someone who says a snake is poisonous is totally pointless and mostly wrong.

You forgot interrobang‽ The most important and incredulous reason for a compose key.

Hmmm...

That looks pretty paywally to me. That said, I'm all for people supporting independent media.

This is called "semantic satiation" which are both pleasingly weird words now that I think about it...

The most popular brand of matches in Denmark is called Tordenskjold. In the late 1800s, Sweden had a large export production of matches, so a Danish manufacturer put Tordenskiold's portrait on his matchbox in 1882, in the hope he could once more strike at the Swedish (Danish: give de svenske stryg).[13] The Tordenskjold brand was bought by a Swedish company in 1972.[14]

Ouch.

Haha, the internet did not fit on a 1.44mb floppy in 1998. Curious to know what was on this‽

1998 was well into the CD-ROM era and the internet was full of .mp3s and .isos by then.

It's not that it's on the 172.16.0.0/12 range. That's totally normal and used for all kinds of stuff.

It's that it's in 172.16.42.0/24 which is the default dhcp settings for a wifi pineapple. It's the /24 mask given on the .42 that's a little suspicious because that's not a common range for anything else.

Being assigned one of those specific 253 hosts with that subnet mask would definitely make me think twice.

Pretty sure it's an autocomplete (like copilot or something)

They were typing

progress != "Hold"

And the ai autocomplete suggested

progress != "Hold onto your butts!"

Hence why the completion part is in grey (it's a suggestion)

Looks more /usr/bucket/cat

But what volume would it be? Is it a small amount of glitter or a lot? What's the g/cm³ of glitter? What about tiny bits of uranium? I feel like all the little bits of air between the glitter particles would lower the density compared with just a solid block of uranium which would increase the volume but....

I feel like someone should put some numbers in this thread.

They ruined Linux!

By the sounds of it their entire video team left. So not half of the channel gone, but all of it...
