- Comment on If a Space Elevator became a reality, wouldn't the cable act as a kind of wick for all of the unfiltered radiation from outside our atmosphere? 2 days ago:
Ada answered the question, but consider your question.
You said “leaving a spaceship with no suit”. If your idea is that something left in space becomes dangerously radioactive then any space station or space ship would itself become dangerously radioactive.
So the answer is, no, things in space don’t become dangerously radioactive. Also things in contact with radioactive substances don’t themselves become radioactive except under extremely specific circumstances. Your house didn’t become dangerously radioactive because of the radioactive americium-241 in the smoke detectors.

I was very excited when my name, Johnson,Navin R appeared in the phone book. “Things are going to start happening to me now.”
- Comment on 7 reasons I chose Btrfs over ZFS for my home NAS 1 week ago:
doesn’t ZFS have RAIDZ expansion now
He didn’t claim it didn’t.
“Even basic tasks like adding drives and changing pool size take a bit of tinkering.”
His claim is it is harder to do.

- Comment on We wouldn't listen, anyway. 3 weeks ago:
The argument that apes have never asked a question “is a classic example of overstatement,” said Heidi Lyn, a professor at the University of South Alabama’s Comparative Cognition and Communication Lab at the Department of Psychology and Marine Science.
“There is plenty of evidence of apes asking questions, although the structure may not look exactly like humans asking questions,” Lyn explained.

Modern wine growers use astrology to plant?
I would think that’s a tiny subset of the producers.
- Comment on Is there a point we can track down when we stopped caring about doctors, nurses, teacher, etc? And thought it was a great idea to pay atheletes millions and screw everyone else? 3 weeks ago:
Gladiators were not soldiers. Some were the equivalent of American Wrestling stars.

All dads I know including myself are the opposite. They do all the shopping and wrapping.

Why the downvotes? He moved the question to a more appropriate forum.

- Comment on WHO STOLE MY FUCKING BARS? 5 weeks ago:
What happens to the guy that was driving it? Does he just blink out of existence when the car shuts off?
The car is the car. I didn’t mention a person. I didn’t state that it is being driven.
I asked if you believe the car is still running after being disassembled because anything is possible.
- Comment on WHO STOLE MY FUCKING BARS? 5 weeks ago:
I don’t agree that the cessation of brain activity necessarily means the end of the subjective experience.
What happens to a car when you turn off the engine and then disassemble the parts? Is the car still running? You believe in infinite possibilities so the chance of it not running is tiny?

Did they fix the hinge problem? I read last year there was bad quality control.
- Comment on How pixel art looked completely different on CRT monitors 1 month ago:
I’ve been playing 90’s Nintendo games like Chrono Trigger because I was too busy in the 90’s to do anything other than PC gaming. Now I feel like I’m still missing out because I’m playing them on my collection of retro Handhelds like Retroid, Anbernic and Miyoo Mini all of which are LCD and don’t have the horsepower to do full crt emulation.
- Comment on Is gold investing a scam? 1 month ago:
It isn’t a scam. It is an asset like buying land in the middle of nowhere. It will in general match inflation but underperform most other investments. In the very long term I would expect that with global population stabilizing and declining, the value of gold will also stabilize and decline.
- Comment on Elon Musk’s Optimus Robot shuts down after reproducing the gesture of its human operator removing their headset 1 month ago:
To make you feel better, this was the remote operator, that makes the robot appear autonomous, removing their headset before handing control off to someone else to keep the lie going.

- Comment on If evolution is real, then why isn’t it happening now? An anthropologist explains that humans actually are still evolving 1 month ago:
evolving to adapt to an environment full of microplastics, to eating ultraprocessed foods, to look at screens for most of the day, etc.
That’s not how evolution works…
Isn’t it? There are those who get will sick from micro plastics/ultra processed food or turn Hikikomori from computer entertainment which would reduce their reproduction.

- Comment on apparently, the T button dosent exist for some people 2 months ago:
It was proved to him that it doesn’t block ai scrapers.
At first I agreed with him. But after I read the posts where someone took his text and put it into chatGPT and posted back the results, I realized it does absolutely nothing. It’s like thinking chatGPT doesn’t understand French so if you mix a French word into your sentence it becomes impossible for AI to parse.
- Comment on apparently, the T button dosent exist for some people 2 months ago:
Given that it was proved to him that it doesn’t mess with AI scrapers, his statement isn’t the reason why he does it.
