Why does this not have the numbers?

deathmetal27 ,

Wow. I didn't notice that.

I thought perhaps the site was updated. Also that they had western comics felt strange.

X is deprecated, you should move to Wayland.

Endeavour does it for me.

No nonsense arch setup without any bells and whistles.

Man, I'm old.

I had first learned of this from Ray William Johnson's video.

The guy's expression tells all that needs to be said.

Google unveils Veo, a high-definition AI video generator that may rival Sora (arstechnica.com)

On Tuesday at Google I/O 2024, Google announced Veo, a new AI video-synthesis model that can create HD videos from text, image, or video prompts, similar to OpenAI's Sora.

Especially when I have the monkey's paw.

deathmetal27 ,

A monkey's paw is a talisman that grants wishes but the wishes are usually granted in a way not expected by the requester, usually as a punishment for tampering with fate.
