On 23rd March 2026, Japan launches the world's first freight-only Shinkansen, converting a former passenger bullet train into a high-speed cargo carrier by removing all seats to maximize storage space. A total game changer for freight transport.

FUCK YOU if youre not even reposting whats going on right now. trans people in india, THE MOST POPULATED QUEER NATION, are illegal now. ILLEGAL. you will get arrested if you are yourself. RAPE IS LESS OF A CRIME THAN BEING TRANSGENDER IS IN INDIA. SPEAK UP FOR THOSE WHO CANT

Torture and forced medical experiments in the name of “preserving fertility”. Oh but we’re not allowed to call them nazis, that’d be extremely offensive.

Why did the US ban this number in 2001? It sounds insane, but 25 years ago, the Motion Picture Association of America was genuinely trying to delete this number from the internet. You see, back in 1999, a teenager in Norway named Jon Lech Johansen wrote a piece of code called DeCSS. It cracked CSS, the encryption on DVDs. Suddenly, anyone could copy a movie with the click of a button. It was a nightmare for the movie studios. They went nuclear. They sued the hacker magazine 2600: The Hacker Quarterly. They threatened Slashdot, and their lawyers fired out cease-and-desist letters to anyone hosting the code. They called it a digital burglary tool. But the internet found a loophole. A computer scientist named Phil Carmody realized that computer code is just binary ones and zeros. And you can treat that string of binary as a single number. That way, you get a really, really big integer—which is the illegal code. But Carmody knew that just finding any number wasn’t going to be enough, because the government could still ban a random number. So he needed a number that science would be forced to protect. He needed a prime number. You see, the University of Tennessee maintains a prestigious academic database called the Prime Pages. It records the 5,000 largest known prime numbers. Carmody realized that if he could turn the illegal code into a record-breaking prime number, the university would have to publish it. His first attempt was 1,401 digits long. It was prime, but too small. It didn’t crack the top 5,000 list. It wasn’t mathematically interesting enough to save. So, he hacked the math. Use this formula: K × 256^N + B Now, K is the illegal code part. 256^N is the mathematical equivalent of adding useless zeros at the end—like making a book longer by adding blank pages. It doesn’t change the actual content inside. So, he kept adding “blank pages,” shifting the number, until he hit a mathematical jackpot—a 1,959-digit monster. This wasn’t just illegal code anymore. It became the 10th largest ECP prime number ever discovered at the time. It was checkmate. The number was immediately added to the university database. For the MPAA to ban the code now, they would have to order a university to delete a scientific record. You can’t censor mathematics.

this is one of the funniest scenes in animation i’ve ever seen LMFAOOO😭😭😭

@Dugoth1 @onlineinsane It's good practice and helps speed up things a lot when you sum 5+ things since you are likely to find several quick groupings

@onlineinsane Ok...this is stupid..."finding a 10" I assume means instead of 8+9 you have to convert it to (8+2)+7, making 10+7 an easier calculation. To get to that you need to do extra calculations however, 10-8 to know you need 2, 9-2 to get the 7 to get that 2, and then 10+7. So so stupid

A CONVERSATION I HAD WITH A 98-YEAR-OLD WOMAN 98 yr old: you know how your parents probably say things like, "you were BORN with the internet, you don't know what it's like to live without!" me: yeah 98 yr old: well, my parents said that to me about electricity.

NEW: Searching “Cuba Blackout” or “Blackout Cuba” on US TikTok tells users the phrases violate their guidelines. Right now, the US is starving 11 million Cubans with a cruel blockade of food, oil, and medicine. Seems like taking control of American’s TikTok is paying off.

In America, if you intervene in the governments attempt to starve an innocent population, you get detained by the Gestapo

I wanted to learn how to make games. So now I'm learning: -drawing -music -programming -writing You don't need all that. Yes, I do

We stopped hearing about the hostage crisis because all of the hostages left are Palestinian.

kiki has been krita's mascot since like 2016 krita's adoption isn't behind photoshop because photoshop doesn't have a mascot, it's bc adobe has a $6.5bn marketing budget. i don't think killing open source identity for the sake of pandering to corporations would be great

This is apartheid. Death penalty "Applies only to Palestinians: The bill excludes Israelis accused of similar violence against Palestinians."

Quick! My massive large company is falling apart! Someone help me budget this :( Game Servers: $2,000,000 Dev Equipment: $13,500,000 Employee Salaries: $56,000,000 CEO Salary: $1,000,000,000
