A gentle reminder to all the adults that forget things and also think they are indestructible: wear eye protection when playing nerf gun battles because age does not in fact mean appropriate aim is actually a thing. -sincerely, my right eye.

This technology has been around for awhile, but pretty interesting that you scientists have figured out how to reconstruct a room based on the reflections in the image of someone's eyes (assuming high enough resolution). Serious sci-fi movie stuff. (so, take a photo of someone and you can -- if it has enough resolution -- zoom into their eye and see everything they can see, even things behind the camera). Imagine a video/photo of a hostage, or the spokesperson for a terrorist group... or even just a scene from a movie.

Tochter kommt mit der geliehenen NERF-Pistole vom Nachbarkind aus der Werkstatt.

FUMP!

Ich: wow, die schießt aber gut!

Isabella: das kommt von den Nägeln.

Wie ich nun weiss bringt es nur wenig, die Druckkammer von NERFs aufzubohren. Mindestens genau so wichtig ist es, die Druck-ausgleichsöffnung ebenso zu erweitern. Was man in 3 Minuten alles lernen kann. Ich lege schon Mal Uhrglasverband und Eisbeutel bereit.

Und die Darts mit den Nägeln drin wurden konfisziert!

Don't they know that I've waited thirty years to own a nerf gun??

    the 8yo finally had a proper birthday party because summer madness and it was a party. every kid and parent got in there, and it was pretty great. they had a few different scenarios and a basketball court sized field of obstacles and tents and barricades.

    it was great but i hurt from diving and rolling and falling🧍‍♂️

    she's wanted a NERF war for years and i think we need to do that more often 😂

    LB: Lol so far for "code signing/notarization makes users more secure!" I mean I always figured it would lead to rubberstamping giving the volume of software needing to be signed. The whole thing always felt like just an excuse to squeeze developers for subscription style income and hurts the liberties of users and developers

    "with a reliable 99.9% uptime"

    Huh. Only 3 9s. So that's what we've allowed "reliable" to mean these days...

    (OK, 5 9s is about 10 minutes of downtime per YEAR, and it might take longer than that to reboot enterprise hardware, so I can understand why we lost a couple)
