found this gem while on the hunt

A floating, mundane, uncanny, yet transcendent square peg hovers over a board with a round hole. In the style of budget animation from 1999.

(Title) 3D Square Peg in a Round Hole Metaphor.

has AI gone too far?

a code comment that reads:
"now order by azimuth angle (just ignore elevation angles for now...)..."

and a code warning underlining "just", suggesting "the word 'just' might sound dismissive or oversimplify what readers consider a complex task"

the UN is a fucking joke. in literally the only way it would be useful, it is entirely ineffective and has been since its inception. human rights and lives are bought and sold en masse with the UN acting only as a bouncer at the world's cruelest club.
