It's clearly just binary code.

In case anyone's wondering, there's a few reasons for that. Firstly, of course the subject itself is badass. Secondly composition-wise we have what I call a "dynamic diagonal" which leads your eyes from the main subject to the background following the same line. The subject is back/side-lit with hard light giving an intense contrasty look. Finally, and that's probably the main one, the fog/smoke is lifting up the shadows as you move into the picture away from the camera, making the main subject much more contrasty and stand out from the background despite being overall the same colours/brightness.

It could indicate that investors don't like these moves and see it as a risk for the future of the company. Or it could indicate that line goes up or down randomly, who knows, not the folks on wall street that's for sure.

Fish&Chips and sushi might be a good start, at least that's how I started eating fish even though I hated anything coming out of the water for my first 25 years or so. Maybe shrimps? Especially fried. Basically fried battered stuff, they usually don't use the tasty fish in that stuff so the taste is mild.

If I ordered a pint and got anything less than 500ml I'd be pissed haha.

Unfortunately I do see them (a bit) in the Netherlands... Something them being a tax loophole for entrepreneurs (but they're supposedly closing it). Definitely niche though, indeed the emotional support vehicles are the big German SUVs...

I think you think this thread is talking about the cybertruck but they're just talking about regular pick up trucks.

NL has supposedly cracked down on the tax loophole which made these attractive to b entrepreneurs (something about imported vehicles), so hopefully we start seeing less of them over time.

375ml pint? Confused European noises

Right that sounds reasonable then. Switching boot order is a piece of cake and the Linux drive would be the only 128gb one in the whole array (I have a lot of drives, including a setup with stablebit drivepool, will that work?). After I'm done with this current gig in a couple days I should have a small window of free time, maybe I'll finally get to it!
