For me, it’s the teeth, the hair spikes seem to be jutting in too many directions, and the basic layout and width of her face/head seem off.

So you’re saying that 2 protons closer than 15 cm would collapse into a black hole? That’s got me pretty worried, because I have a lot more than 2 protons within that proximity in my body, by at least an order of magnitude or so

I bet you’re from the kind of place that has the head of state and head of government be the same person. I mean, I am too, but I bet you also are.

It’s not whether the explanation is at all possible, but whether it is the most reasonable or most likely explanation. “Maybe bad fuel” is not “we investigated and found it was likely bad fuel”, it was just a guy spitballing, or repeating someone else’s random thought.
Trump is not known for making credible statements of any kind, let alone for being regularly correct in early appraisals of complex technical/mechanical situations.
So, could it be “bad fuel?” Sure, why not, I don’t know anything about military aviation troubleshooting. But is Trump posing the possibility a satisfying explanation? Not in the least.

Do you have literally anything to lend credence to this claim?

I mean, not really. He knows analog clocks well enough that the hand position just inherently means something to him. Afternoon, and the little hand is almost halfway? Work day done! Just by position.
Somewhat analagous: I know how far a meter and a kilometer are, in principle, but when I consider distances I more intuitively understand them in feet and miles. It’s what I’m used to.

I know a Gen X guy who “hates” digital clocks because “they don’t have hands to tell me what time it is.”

- Comment on Amazon Allegedly Replaced 40% of AWS DevOps With AI Days Before Crash 1 week ago:
Out of curiosity, I asked Google Gemini if I should use AI more. It said:
The short answer is: yes, you should explore using AI more, but you should do so strategically and thoughtfully.
Which, of course, still favors using AI more without necessarily knowing much about my current use. At least this answer suggested careful and deliberate use rather than wanton.
- Comment on Huge internet outage live blog: Amazon, Disney+, Hulu, HBO Max and more experiencing issues 1 week ago:
One potential advantage of being up while a whole lot of other companies are down is that some customers may end up switching to you during an outage involving the majority of your competitors.
Yes, you’d experience outages on the new service, but where you potentially lose X% of your business (I have no idea what that kind of number looks like - 0.1%? Higher? Lower?), in the event of AWS outage hitting all your competitors, they each lose 0.1% (or whatever) who disproportionately go to you because you were up while they, and other alternatives, were all down.
This potentially advantages the first companies to jump off AWS for a comparable alternative, which is fair sight better than if the advantages only showed up once some minimum of companies left AWS since no one would be incentived to be first.

- Comment on New California law requires AI to tell you it’s AI 2 weeks ago:
Prosecution: “Your Honor, the definition of artificial is ‘made or produced by human beings rather than occurring naturally,’ and as all human beings are themselves produced by human beings, we are definitionally artificial. Therefore, the actions of an intelligent human are inherently AI.”
Defense: “The defense does not argue this point, as such. However, our client, FOX News, could not be said to be exhibiting ‘intelligence.’ Artificial they may be, but AI they are clearly not. We rest our case.”

Hey, bending to the pressure of the public instead of the pressure of the government is still the WAY better choice here, and it’s good to see any media outlet taking that choice (against facism).
- Comment on Commercials seem to be normalizing an unhealthy work-balance more. 2 weeks ago:
Infuriating. The point of advancing society and dividing labor into specialties is so that we can create more for our world than if each of us tried to a little bit of everything (farming, crafting, medicine, etc.) beyond the small amounts we choose for joy or satisfaction. And then with that, we get to have more free time, because we actually only need so much to make our society work and improve at a reasonable pace.
The people who think we all need to bust our asses got hoodwinked by the ownership class into producing even more for their overlords.

You probably can’t change their mind, but you can remember that their opinion doesn’t define you. And also you have just as much power over them (that which they grant you), which you can use to try to instill in them a sense of living their own life instead of working for the glory of the Corpos.

They heard that Millennials and Gen Z like fatalistic humor and decided to try and cash in on it. But, like… it’s not fun when it’s a corporation saying “Ha ha, you’ll never retire.”
