- Comment on Immersed Tube Tunneling: How to build a tunnel on land and then put it underwater - Practical Engineering 1 week ago:
They are doing this in the tunnel between Germany and Denmark because the sea bed is basically mud.

Yeah… You can basically say “this is x-ray but represented in <any color>”
- Comment on Indian grocery startup KiranaPro was hacked and its servers deleted, CEO confirms 1 week ago:
Amazing. Like my company is not that big but no single user would be able to destroy everything like this alone.
- Comment on Indian grocery startup KiranaPro was hacked and its servers deleted, CEO confirms 1 week ago:
I don’t understand how this is a real issue nowadays for any business with more than a few thousand daily users. Servers should be easily re-deployable and databases duplicated.

That happens in Google maps too. A 4 star restaurant is not good. But in Japan, 3 star is the norm, and 5 means exceptionally good.

- Comment on Do you think a story that mixes magic with super advanced technology can work? 2 weeks ago:
In Attack on Titan, magic (titan powers) had historically an edge over humanity, but the story is in part about how Humanity’s technology has advanced to almost surpass those magical powers and shift the power balance.
- Comment on Framing Logic - The Insane Influencer Logic That Tricked Million of People 2 weeks ago:
Don’t let your guard down. It’s easy to fall into confirmation bias when bs arguments are dissected in front of us, but we’re constantly bombarded with wrong and fake information, often from bad faith actors. It’s even worse when the arguments seem to validate our own preconceptions. Always be critical.

I mean you can do a smoldering sexy look at someone if your eyes face sideways. Makes total sense.

Or goats just find forward facing eyes to be sexier.
- Comment on 2 Years in Dubai | Brutally Honest Review 3 weeks ago:
The guy sounds like a douche to be honest. So his perspective is likely pretty different than mine. Most of his pros are things I really don’t care about and the cons were like, “yeah, duh?”.

So what you’re saying is the cure is… Blood letting?

Sorry doctor, I only accept free rage, organic, pfas free blood transfusions.
- Comment on The first ever earthquake fault rupture captured on a security cam in Myanmar 4 weeks ago:
I wonder how this actually works. Because technically property lines shifted too. And in many places, official property lines are still demarked with some sort of marker on the ground, not by GPS.
- Comment on The first ever earthquake fault rupture captured on a security cam in Myanmar 4 weeks ago:
And very soft and squishy ones at that…
- Comment on Why Pewdiepie wants you to run Linux... 5 weeks ago:
Why the down votes? I mean, it’s not a great video, but not terrible either.
- Comment on Memes from my biology class #5 5 weeks ago:
There are 8 billion people. I’m not unique and that’s fine.
- Comment on New to lemmy. Is there a version of /r/changemyview? 5 weeks ago:
I’m a hard core vegan. I’ve been banned because I’m apparently a “carnist troll”. In their defense, they unbanned me after I appealed.

Weakest force but with the longest range right?
- Comment on What happens if AI just keeps getting smarter? 1 month ago:
Well keep getting dumber until only the elites can afford education.
- Comment on New to lemmy. Is there a version of /r/changemyview? 1 month ago:
I’ve personally never been banned on reddit, but been banned 2 or 3 times on Lemmy for being too argumentative.
- Comment on New to lemmy. Is there a version of /r/changemyview? 1 month ago:
That’s very important context for this question
- Comment on Why do Americanized names of places etc exist? 1 month ago:
Languages don’t have to do it. Languages are organic and evolve constantly. A language is not a set of rules, it’s what people speak. The books just try to formalize it. But each language has limited set of sounds, so older names of places often used only those sounds because people literally couldn’t pronounce other sounds. Or when the name is something totally different, it’s usually very old names for things, ans they often get changed! (recent examples are Turkiye and Kiwiv). You also can’t force people to use certain words, it either comes naturally or falls out of use.

They care more about toilet design than literal toilet architects. It’s almost funny.

If you hate yourself and your mental health, do peruse the comment section of this article. It’s really good for losing faith in humanity.
