Police officer's gun sucked away by powerful magnets in lab raid
  • If you fired a gun past an MRI machine, could it conceivably catch the bullets? I am currently assuming that significant deflection is absolutely possible with such a powerful magnet.

  • This looks like it could have been the inspiration for He-Man

  • Is there a word for mangled idiom that becomes commonplace
  • Yes, that's exactly what I thought I had implied.

  • Is there a word for mangled idiom that becomes commonplace
  • "It's not rocket surgery."

    This one irks me. Combination of "rocket scientist" and "brain surgery".

  • What is a small gadget under $10-20 that you absolutely LOVE?

  • Ventoy source code contains some unknown BLOBs, still no word on the issue from the dev after months

  • Most consumers hate the idea of AI-generated customer service

  • Removing "Season Unknown" with no episodes

    I recently added some files to my Jellyfin instance, and some of them had their metadata scraped incorrectly. This was no big deal, they weren't named very well. These files ended up being displayed in a "Season Unknown" season of the show. So I fixed the names, and the files' metadata was corrected automatically. However, the "Season Unknown" remained, with no media displaying in it. I can't figure out how to get rid of it. Anyone have any ideas?
