Yeah the refs clearly don’t care cause they want the sport to be self refereed.

There are studies. Hence the multiple cheating scandals, because we know how small of a change can massively affect your flight. Here’s one:
pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12611860/
Changing the suit circumference by +2 cm increased the lift area (𝐶𝑙𝐴) by ∼5% and the drag area (𝐶𝑑𝐴) by ∼4%. This was simulated to change the jump length by 5.8 m, which corresponds to an increase of 2.8 m/cm in suit tolerance, for a reference jump of 130 m
2.8 meters for every increase in a single centimeter of circumference.
- Comment on What's going on with Olympic skiers and penises? 5 days ago:
Every additional centimeter of circumference on your suit gives you almost ten extra feet of distance. It’s insane.

I mean that lists off acetaminophen… and it says all citrus juices can do it, so don’t drink juice at all then?

12v is hardly anything. This is not a joke, go put your hands on both terminals of a car battery. You won’t feel a thing.

No mention of the booing of Israel as well. Only two groups got booed, that should tell you something.

I have never seen that symbol before. What currency is that!?
- Comment on Anon is a nice guy 2 weeks ago:
The one instance I’m referring to that caused me and my wife to stop watching was when he faked a science experiment for a wet wipes company, showing that wet wipes are flushable and used a faked experiment to show why.
You should not need proof for why this experiment was faked, but you can also just go find the video yourself and watch it. It’s so blatant that it doesn’t really need proof. And any wastewater engineer would tell you that wet wipes are not flushable as well.
- Comment on Anon is a nice guy 2 weeks ago:
That was not the one I’m talking about. I’m talking about the literal faking of a science experiment he did when he did a sponsored segment for wet wipes.
- Comment on Anon is a nice guy 2 weeks ago:
While true, veritasium is terrible and fakes science experiments for advertisements. You shouldn’t support him.

They’re an “optimized for gaming and high speed workloads” distribution as far as I understand. Lots of customizations to GPU drivers and what not for games.

Wonder why CachyOS isn’t in the group.

Coke makes more sense than pop, since coca cola was literally named after the term.
- Comment on Lawsuit claims Meta can see WhatsApp chats in breach of privacy 3 weeks ago:
I thought this was well known. That’s why I don’t understand people using whatsapp at all. On android and ios products from the same company can access data between different apps, breaking through the sandbox. So if you have WA and FB installed, FB can see the data in WA and then send it in plain text back to meta’s servers (or encrypting with a key they have access to).
This does not mean that WA isn’t e2e encrypted. That’s why this spokesman can say:
“Any claim that people’s WhatsApp messages are not encrypted is categorically false and absurd,” spokesman Andy Stone said in an email. “WhatsApp has been end-to-end encrypted using the Signal protocol for a decade. This lawsuit is a frivolous work of fiction.”
And be completely truthful, and yet the lawsuit also be completely truthful. If you can visually see it on your screen then Meta can have access to it if they wanted. You have to actually trust the company behind the software as well and it needs to be open source and auditable and that still isn’t necessarily enough. WA already doesn’t meet two of these requirements so why in the world would you trust it at all?
Here’s an article talking about this on iOS. iosbrain.com/…/beyond-the-sandbox-using-app-group…

I’ve heard that new Donkey Kong game is just Donkey Kong Mario Odyssey essentially.

You should post that video then because that flash is coming directly from the end of the barrel.
- Comment on Tried to carefully install the faucet immediately after gluing and caulking the sink 5 weeks ago:
Master bedroom/bathroom with a cat or dog water bowl? A WaterPik? A fish tank? A cleaning system for a fish tank (uses suction from faucet to filter the gravel). A cup? Watering small plants? A cactus you don’t want to overwater. Rinsing out a soap bottle. Rinsing out your toothbrush quietly so you don’t wake your wife. Humidifier.
- Comment on Tried to carefully install the faucet immediately after gluing and caulking the sink 5 weeks ago:
Bacteria on hands > water washes it onto sink > bacteria in sink > hands hit sink when washing
In any case you can just look at the other comments here. We’re all hate it when our hands hit the sink. Not only that but those faucets make it so that the only use case for your faucets is for barely washing your hands.
I specifically installed these in my house because they’re superior in every way. Why wouldn’t you give room to wash hands and fill bottles if you can? It’s not like vertical space is at a premium! It makes it easier to put your face under to rinse, to put bottles under, to fill something large like a steam cleaner, pretty much everything. The only thing that has been more difficult is using a Python to clean a fish tank.
