If you divide it by itself and add one, you can do that infinitely many times and get a prime every time. Works for all the primes.
- Comment on That's an impressive drop. Any ideas why? 5 days ago:
Maybe that’s the problem. A lot of the ladies I know say that sort of thing is uncomfortable.

Luke 1 says the Holy Spirit came on her, so I’m not sure how she got up the duff from that. Maybe she had to scoop up the holy jizz and shove it up herself.

Given the context he’s talking about judging people by their looks. You cannot tell just by looking at someone whether or not their immigration status is legal. You need more information than just their apparent ethnicity.

Do you think AI did that on its own, or did a human come up with the gag and use AI to illustrate it for them, maybe because they were crap at drawing?

Yeah you’re right to be cautious. A random user ID and a state name is more than enough for the Feds to be able to figure out whose door to kick in.

- Comment on Former magistrate, 81, faces six months in jail for Palestine Action vigil 5 weeks ago:
What I don’t understand is why people are choosing to die on this hill. Supporting Palestine Action isn’t the only way to support Palestine, and if they’ve been essentially disbanded by the proscription (bank accounts frozen etc) then it isn’t even an effective way to give support in any meaningful sense. The banner “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine.” would be legal, and arguably more effective than the longer one because (in theory at least) it should be unopposed by law.

- Comment on My first colonoscopy 1 month ago:
Would an AI have made this on its own though, or might someone have typed “Lego set My first colonoscopy [etc]” into an image generator? If the latter you can still laugh with the person that had the original idea even if they didn’t draw it themselves.

Oof, I thought it was only constipated mathematicians that had to work it out with a pencil.
- Comment on Since we're doing magic eyes now... 1 month ago:
They do work. It takes some practice to get them though. At first I used a pencil or something to focus on while I made the two dots merge together, stayed focussed on the pencil until my brain “saw” the image behind it, then it sort of locked in and I could take the pencil away. I’ve done so many of them now that I can just go crosseyed to bring the dots together, then look at the middle picture.
The 3D image works by tricking your brain into seeing a third image that isn’t really there. We’re used to constructing 3D images from two slightly different views; we do it all the time, so the two images are slightly different and when overlaid use the same mechanism to make you think it’s 3D.

Yes, but then where would we be without all those endless squabbles about X which are easily solved by pointing out that A::X != B::X?

Taggart sounds more like maggot than fan-art. Two example pronunciations here, the first closer to the latter but I think the second sounds closer to maggot: youtu.be/pb0CEn5YiIQ?t=94
Seems like an American thing to pronounce it “tag-arrrr-t”.
- Comment on Ok, I'll pay you the 1995 price 1 month ago:
I think it’s the one that rhymes with Taggart. And is another word for a bassoon.

Someone should post this in ADHD Memes with the text “I’ve got ADHD and these organs therefore having ADHD is a pre-requisite to having these organs” and see if anyone notices.
- Comment on The Prime Reasons to Avoid Amazon 2 months ago:
True. I ordered a book from them last week; it arrived in 2 days. Everywhere else, including Waterstones, was “oh we might be able to get it out the door sometime next year, if we can be arsed” so Amazon got the order.
- Comment on In 6 hours it will be illegal to say "I support Palestine Action" in the UK, with a sentence of up to 14 years in prison. 2 months ago:
For that to be a useful simile you’d need to use some kind of reversible fire.
