Error'd: Shift-Meta-Errord
The submissions this week seemed to have coincidentallydeveloped a theme of self-reference. You tell me.
First, persistent Caleb S. tried over and over again to submit this same item for our consideration. He called it a "space-enfolding bus" and said that"There's apparently more space in this Afternoon Tea busthan meets the eye -- you can book seats for 500 adults and 500 children."Alas, his submission came without an image, so we asked for a do-over.Dutifully done, Caleb's second and third attempts both reported "Please use the comments from when I tried to submit this without an image."With that behind us, here is the image from the final attempt.
I thought there was some kind of mistake, but I finally figured it out. The Space-Enfolding Bus is also a Self-Enfoldingbus, and it's been swallowed by its own singularity. Or else it's snowing very hard.
Next, intrepid tourist Andreas R. noted "I came across this while browsing for travel SIM cards. I didn'trealize the United States had a population of over 300 trillionpeople! And one of the most interesting places to visit in theUSA is America, go figure." Not only is America a place to visitin America, it's also a country in America. Is bullshit contentgenerated for SEO truly a WTF anymore? Or is it just so derigeur that it can only be a JFC? Either way, it's just recursiveenough to clear this here bar. (Interestingly, note that since the USA has no official language, the boilerplate text has a NULL in it which could have been handled better or worse.)
Security dabbler Metal Rafa does, and does not, reporting "It's good to have options, especially for those who can'tmake up their minds about unsubscribing from a marketingemail list or not. SentinelOne's mailing list softwarenow lets them do both at the same time!"
Continental Faroguy found an error-rate error and shared it"Reddit was having trouble loading pages and the error ratereport was not encouraging."
And finally, dedicated troublemaker Andy caught us in an edit and decided to rub our metaphorical nose in it."I stumbled on this gem in my RSS reader.Is this maybe a bit cheeky? Perhaps a bit too on thenose? Sure. But there's no world in which I can passit up." And no world in which I can turn it down, either. Roast crow, yum.
