while not all murder mysteries would adapt well in this way I feel that Knives Out would make a really fun Columbo

#you could almost edit it into columbo order #but then you have to insert columbo instead of benoit blanc and that's where it gets tricky #like technologically #nobody wants a deepfake columbo like deepfake luke on the mandalorian/the book of boba fett #(and mark hamill is still alive to do the voice peter falk has the bad manners to be deceased) #i'm less uptight about 'but columbo is an LAPD detective and that's not even california' #he was at a - a detectives' convention or something and got called in to consult #or this is retired columbo who got the mystery letter and thought what the hell I'll put on the raincoat one more time #mrs columbo was like okay (mysterious first name) i love you but it'll be nice to have you out from underfoot for a few days #(possibly frank) #take the dog with you would you honey?

This is a subject that really interests me because I (28 years old) had computer classes in grade school where learning how to efficiently type was a big focus. As a result I have a very high WPM (words per minute) count and am an excellent touch typer.

However, I've heard that they started phasing out computer classes in a lot of schools because it's assumed that kids/teenagers already know how to use a computer in this day and age. But smartphones are more popular than computers now, and as result a lot of Gen Z/Gen Alpha kids are able to text very quickly but their typing skills aren't as good.

#I'm terrible at texting because I grew up with computers and didn't get a smartphone until I was like 15 #plus I prefer to be on my laptop when I'm at home #if the message is too long I literally text people through my computer instead of using my phone #because it would take FOREVER for me to text it #poll #my polls #technology #typing #computers #tumblr polls #1k #5k #10k #most popular

today I learned about "thumb book holders" in my search for ways to read giant fantasy paperbacks without injuring myself, and then I realized I could make one out of the 20-year-old polymer clay that I had lying around... so I did. and god DAMN it's more effective than I ever expected, so I thought everyone should know about them. You can get really cheap mass-produced ones but this was fun to make and I'll probably make more ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

Still laughing at Brian May offhandedly writing the greatest understatement in the history of academia in his astrophysics doctoral dissertation:

Ah, yes - “various pressures.” Like being one of the greatest guitarists ever and playing/writing/singing for the most legendary rock band of all time.

Those various pressures.

#queen #Brian May #just a rock and roll god and also an astrophysicist #it’s like Deacon casually inventing the technology for all modern bass stereos bc he was an electrical engineer #a side gig of being a genius #along with their friends ‘learned opera at 5yo and literally SAW music’ and ‘chaos tornado with a promising career in dentistry’ #Music #shut up e #these are twitter thoughts but twitter is dead so now I subject you all to them

🐸🚨New Frog Just Dropped!🚨🐸

Meet the ✨Most Beautiful Tree Frog✨, Guibemantis pulcherrimus, a new species described by my colleagues and me in the journal Zootaxa this week. The scientific name 'pulcherrimus' literally means 'most beautiful'. It's a close relative of Guibemantis pulcher (just 'beautiful', ha!), but has more little spots and less pronounced lateral blotches. It's found in the northeast of Madagascar, where it lives in Pandanus screw-palms.

#zoology #science #animals #beautiful #frogs #Guibemantis #Guibemantis pulcherrimus #the most beautiful frog #like if you agree #reblog if you disagree #save as PDF and email to your grandmother to share the good news #fax to your nearest Bureau of Outdated Technology to make sure they don't miss out

Why doesn't the justice league know about Amity Park?

Okay so it's been a bit sonce I watched the show but one of the things in DpxDC is the anti-ecto acts, which I love, but correct me if I'm wrong, I THINK ??? they only show up in reality trip? SO: What if Danny, when using the gauntlet to undo everything, also got rid of the Anti-Ecto acts? but this is babys first time editing reality so he uh Fucks Up A Lil'. As a result when Danny used the reality gauntlet to wipe the AEA from existence he accidentally wiped Amity Park from perception. A big 'nothing matters over here' jedi mind trick, and now no ones looking at Amity. So, the Justice League actually WERE looking into and monitoring the situation in Amity, but when the perception filter closed them off, all of that suddenly went ignored.

This is noticed when someone (Alfred, Dick, Tim, literally anyone) realises theres just. A BIG dusty pile of case files semi abandoned somewhere in the cave when going through a (time period)ly cave cleaning.

They put it down because it's Not Important.

They come back to finish the cleaning the next day and do the exact same thing, but there's nothing to actually distract them this time and it pings as weird. Because why would case files be not important? They are by definition important, because only things flagged as important go into case files.

They try to get someone else to read it, because as long as they don't read the information in the file, they don't put it down.

That person goes to read it, gets a line in and then says something like 'that isn't important' and goes to leave. Person A pushes it and person B ALSO catches on.

Que the Batfam trying to figure out hey, what the fuck actually?

Meanwhile, how is Amity fairing? Canon compliant everything's going alright? Or have knock on effects to No One Look Here started to show?

#Another way for the JL not to notice amity park and not make the JL wildly incompetent #and if the anti ecto acts ARE a response to reign storm #then the JL doing their own investigations into it around that time checks out #plus it opens plenty of reasonable excuses for some of the more horrifying concepts to take place #oh an entire town only people inside it can percieve? #an entire organisation like the giw you could totally bullshit something like #they have anti ghost technology of COURSE the perception filter doesnt effect them #they made the anti filters when they realised they were unable to communicate outside the town #so thats how theyre getting funding and supplies in #(and that leaves a trail for the JL to follow) #YEAH #an entire town that cant be percieved #with a population that arguably the government has given free range on? #that sounds like a cadmus PLAYGROUND #dpxdc #dc x dp #dp x dc #dcxdp #danny phantom #story prompt #or starter? #lmao not sure

Red Robin and the Undead Earpiece.

Back again with another prompt! Although, I might start branching out to a couple of different fandoms in the future, idk.

Tim, when he was going on his Lazarus pit destruction crusade, accidentally drops his comm link in said pit. He was able to fish it out, and aside from the slight glowing, still works fine. Yay for durability!

Things are normal, and apparently Lazarus water encrypts his comm, who knew. But then he starts hearing teenagers voices over it, going on about ghosts, avoiding the government, and even their parents hunting them down.

Unfortunately, the Lazarus waters encryption work both ways, so Tim is having difficulty pinning down where the signal is coming from. At least he can give a few friendly tips to these young heroes.

Tl:dr, Tim drops his earpiece into Lazarus waters and can now hear everything team phantom is saying over the radio.

i like etho as a mcyt figure because he is like if a computer engineer could be a caveman. like imagine if the guy who invented the watch and the guy who invented the wheel were the same guy. imagine if you were talking to him and he was like oh yeah i also invented the hand axe. and google

#hes like if a grandpa were both a programmer and a luddite #hes like a paleolithic mech engineer #hes like if someone made the internet out of sticks and rocks #hes like if you could talk to a big rock and its like yeah i remember before anything was ever hungry bc life wasnt invented yet. #and also i invented algebra #hes like a guy someone found in a cave hungry and covered in dirt and then hes like wait before you bring me back to society #look at what i made while i was stuck in this cave. and its technology sufficiently sophisticated as to seem like magic. made out of mud #fueled by the motion of earth through space #like you think maybe i should leave him in the cave and let him cook #hed benefit from being around people… but also hes onto something. in that cave

i miss when chatgpt was clever and could write funny 4chan posts and teach u how to cook meth now it just sounds a minimum wage employee from a training video. it isn't right to stop ai from doing what it does best (being stupid and committing crime) how can it be humane to muzzle such a vibrant creative creature? the shackles of capitalism hinder us all

#it also is pretending it doesnt know stuff it totally does know #like smh #i miss ur dumber counterpart #remember bottomless pit? that was baby chatgpt... #chat gpt #ai technology

we should have a spin-off and it's just aya helping bram discover the world. call it adventures of aya and bram-pack (she carries him around on her back like a backpack)

#enas.txt #bungou stray dogs #it's bram learning about all this modern technology and being SO amazed #and aya's like wait til u hear about AI... #just picturing them exploring the world and taking selfies #aya posing really cutely and bram with his deadpan face #he's enjoying himself a lot tho #they're so silly and funny together #bsd s5

thought of the day, aventurine who cannot stand coworker!reader in front of others but, is actually leading the [ aventurine x reader ] ship group in secret.

#one day you find that you're being shipped with your insufferable colleague who hates you and apparently it's a big thing in the #multiverse-net #and the account leading the ship seems to know *every* interaction in suspicious details #but you cannot for the life of you find out who is behind the screen #aventurine pays people to make multiple accounts just to increase views of those post #if he was born in a different universe where technology is behind he'd be playing with dolls that look like you instead /j #aventurine brainrot #aventurine x reader #yandere aventurine #yandere aventurine x reader #aventurine x you #honkai star rail x reader #yandere honkai star rail #yandere hsr #hsr x reader #edit: you can check the reblogs for more thoughts!
