I love it and I get compliments on the street, but r/tattoo absolutely hated it and I'm depressed

I like minimalism and unconventional things, so this sleeve inspired by The Fountain began as a coverup for a wrist tattoo and has taken on a life of its own. I don't put myself out there very often so the hate from the community has me sad and confused. Can anyone offer any feedback or kind words?

When did students stop caring about getting a drivers license?

When I was in high school, we counted the days until we could drive. Now so many students don’t get a license. I don’t think it’s the cost (at least in my area) … they just are completely content having people drive them and don’t want the responsibility. We wanted the freedom. And they can’t be bothered. I… don’t… get… it…

AITA for accusing my best friend of pedophilia?

First time writing here, could really use some advice

I (28F) have been friends with "Keith" (27M) for 13 years. We dated for a few years, broke up a couple years ago, and stayed friends after our breakup.

Recently he's been going on dates with various women, one of which he was in a very abusive relationship with for 3 weeks, before he decided to break up with her a few weeks ago. He swore he wouldn't date again for another year or 2 because of the trauma he endured with that woman.

That was until he came to me and mentioned that he was talking to someone, just a week after the breakup. He told me that he was talking to a mutual online gaming friend of ours (18F) and that they had started dating after he drunkenly confessed his feelings to her. He went on to say that he has had a crush on her since she was 16 and that he thought she was cute back then, but didnt want to pursue anything with her until she was of legal age.

I immediately felt so grossed out after hearing that. I told him I didn't think it was a good idea because of the age gap, lack of life experience, and that it felt like he would be taking advantage of her.

He said she was so mature for her age, that they just clicked, and that love just happens. He also said that he can't help who he falls in love with.

We've had multiple conversations about this, and he sees nothing wrong with what he's doing. I can't look at him the same. I told him he was basically a pedophile in my eyes and that I was disappointed in him. He told me that it would be my fault if our friendship ended over this. Was I too harsh? Is a 9 year age gap normal under these circumstances?

Show HN: A High-Performance CRC Hardware Generator in Bluespec SystemVerilog

What is it and why make it? The Cyclic Redundancy Code(CRC) is an error-detecting code commonly used in digital networks and storage devices to detect accidental changes to digital data. And blue-crc repo provides a parallel, pipelined and highly-parameterized hardware implementation of CRC targeting high-throughput applications, such as network transmission.

CRC is a mature and widely-adopted error-detecting technology, and there have been numerous hardware implementations of it. However, most existing hardware designs are either implemented using pure combinational logic or are only designed to process input data byte-by-byte serially, which results in extremely low throughput. Other designs targeting high-performance applications lack proper parameterization and only support some specific CRC configurations. Blue-crc aims to solve these problems by providing both high-throughput and well-parameterized CRC hardware implementation.

Main Features of Blue-CRC Complete CRC Configuration: the implementation supports complete CRC configuration parameters, including polynomial, initVal(the initial CRC value), finalXor(the result is xor’d with this value if desired), reflectData(if True, the input bit order is reversed), and reflectRemainder(if True, the result bit order is reversed).

Standard Interfaces: The input interface follows AxiStream protocol, with a parameterized data width. The output CRC result is guarded by the basic handshake protocol.

Parallel: The IP is designed to process multiple bytes per cycle.

Fully Pipelined: The implementation takes in raw data and produces results every cycle.

High Throughput: The implementation, configured with 256-bit input and 32-bit CRC output, runs at 500MHz on Xilinx xcvu9p FPGA.

Have a try? For BSV users, you can import our codes and instantiate CrcAxiStream interface in your design directly. Besides, we provide a script to generate custom Verilog CRC implementation automatically. If you are interested in high-performance CRC hardware acceleration, it’s worth giving it a try. We are also open to any recommendations for further improving our designs.

What's so horrible about including TCG in an event?

So the complaints are everywhere, not that I particularly mind, people can complain about whatever they want.

I'm just interested in what makes people be so infuriated about it? Not to generalize, but most if not all complaints are not even being genuine, like the weapon is locked behind it, primos are locked behind it etc etc.

That's just not true though...first of all only 1 out of 4 mini events even is TCG, second for the primos you just have to play a match...not win, just play...with predetermined decks...so you don't even have to prep, or know anything about TCG.

How is that different to literally any other main event that includes mini events not everyone likes? If you don't like them you can get away with doing the bare minimum and still get all the relevant rewards.

So what is your reason to be so furious about it?

I personally think people are blowing this way out of proportion...for what basically boils down to 10mins of annoyance(if you hate TCG) every 2 days for a total of 4 times...seems pretty fair to me, even if you hate TCG😅

Three dogs are having a drink at a bar.

One dog is a rottweiler, the second dog is a German shepherd and the third dog is none other than the Taco Bell Chihuahua. They were just sitting at the bar when suddenly who should come walking in but Lassie herself. She saunters up to the three dogs and says, "If one of you can creatively use 'liver' and 'cheese' in the same sentence, I'll take you out for dinner and a movie."

The rottweiler says ,"I love liver and cheese!".

"That's no good." Lassie said.

The German shepherd says ,"I HATE liver and cheese!"

"Still not creative enough." Lassie tells him.

The Taco Bell Chihuahua then says to the first two dogs, "Liver alone, cheese mine!"

I was sitting on my own in a restaurant when I saw a beautiful woman at another table. I sent her a bottle of most expensive wine on the menu

She sends me a note, "I will not touch a drop of this wine unless you can assure me that you have seven inches in your pants." So i wrote back," Return me the wine; As gorgeous as you are, I'm not cutting off three inches for anyone."
