Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room with Pierre and Suzette.
- Comment on Have there been any technological advances in boucey ball technology in the last decade or two? 1 day ago:
Thanks. Fixed it.
- Comment on Have there been any technological advances in boucey ball technology in the last decade or two? 1 day ago:
Please stop putting in comments about bouncy balls. OP made clear by typing it twice he wants to know about boucy balls.
- Comment on If you argue for a cause like affordable housing for everyone, is it necessarily hypocritical if you also own investment properties? 5 days ago:
You can make them affordable by screening for high income.
- Comment on If you argue for a cause like affordable housing for everyone, is it necessarily hypocritical if you also own investment properties? 5 days ago:
What if you think affordable housing should be government subsidized? Or as is the case in many places, below market priced units that the builder is required to include, with limits on how they are used (income qualifications and owner occupation).
Neither of those requires you not to rent to other people. It would be like saying I'm for mental health services being paid for by the government but running a psychiatric business.
- Comment on XC Running: Does anyone else's parents do this? 1 week ago:
That's like 400 times around the track!
- Comment on XC Running: Does anyone else's parents do this? 1 week ago:
I find for cross-country and track you really just end up back where you started. If you want to get somewhere, you have to run a 5k. If you really want to go far, marathons are where it's at.
- Comment on Hypothetically, if you have memory problems and need to write down events, is there a system which you can verify that its not tampered with? (Like a digital checksum, but for a journal) 1 week ago:
He murdered your wife.
- Comment on Would you ever give up your right to leave a bad review about a company? 1 week ago:
The sign could be about missiles - rocks on the road kicked up by the trucks tires - rather than the truck spilling its load.
- Comment on Stephen Miller: Secretary Kennedy one of the world's foremost experts on public health. He is working hard to restore the credibility of the CDC as a scientific organization 1 week ago:
This is a tangent, but I'm curious how many people who uncritically supported Kennedy's environmental efforts are rethinking the accuracy of his claims based on what they know is wrong about his public health claims.
What's the difference between evil pharma pushing deadly vaccines and evil chemical companies polluting our environment? There are historically proven incidents of both (if we expand vaccine to medical treatments in general), but how many of the specific cases he made against companies were contrived bullshit pushed by cranks? Take fluoridation for a less controversial example among educated people.
- Comment on What strategy would you use to estimate the number of hazelnuts 1 week ago:
This is a 2D image of a cup of hazelnuts. The number is just the ones you can see. The ones you can't see aren't part of the image.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
I would take more time to sit with the diagnosis before doing anything rash. See what your actual progression is like.
- Comment on What does 🥀 mean? I've seen it used online a lot recently. 1 week ago:
She loves me. Or...She loves me not.
- Comment on If copyright on a work expired immediately after death, would be that a bad or good idea? 2 weeks ago:
Those fees won't pay for the cost of registering all these copyrights. Currently the government doesn't need to get involved until there's a suit, and then they get court fees. Everybody registering their first 2 to 5 years of copyright would be a massive burden.
Also, at every 5 years you're only up to a few hundred bucks at 40 years. Definitely needs to be on the lower side.
- Comment on A real question about trans athletes and records 2 weeks ago:
One reason would be that he would have been barred from entering the contests.
- Comment on Do you agree with my unpopular opinion about height in fencing? 1 year ago:
Still better than sister-fucker.
- Comment on Do you agree with my unpopular opinion about height in fencing? 1 year ago:
This poster only posts about his belly being vulnerable to stabbing due to his being tall. Once it was a flippant remark a coworker made. This time it's because he is a fencer.
It seems to be his obsession and his posts are disingenuous at best.
- Comment on Is this normal for girls or just a extreme edge case? (Serious question) 1 year ago:
Watermelon.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
It's an island of 4200 people about 20-30 miles from docks in Los Angeles and Orange Counties.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
Ah. I interacted with you about a different one yesterday. Didn't know you were tracking multiple.
If you run into anyone who seems obsessed with dirty things his friends are saying about his sister or a different one that feels vulnerable to being stabbed in the belly due to height, let me know.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
You sure? This post is at least a little different. And so far no claims that life is pointless.
- Comment on Why are weather apps so bad at telling you the current weather? 1 year ago:
That's not a correct understanding of how Snopes works. They debunked this.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 year ago:
You can use "LittleKidLover" as your business email username so everyone knows where your priorities are.
- Comment on How are seedless fruits grown, if they have no seeds to carry their seedlessness attribute? 1 year ago:
Your first paragraph was:
the plants are cross bred for generations. Each time the seeds of the plants with the best desired properties are kept.
You're sharing information and opinions about Monsanto, but it isn't relevant to the topic of seedless fruits.
- Comment on How are seedless fruits grown, if they have no seeds to carry their seedlessness attribute? 1 year ago:
Your response is mostly irrelevant. Monsanto (now Bayer) had a patent for plants that would produce sterile seeds (not seedless), but they never commercialized them. Farmers buy hybrid seeds because second generation hybrids are inferior.
There are many ways to produce seedless plants that don't involve genetic engineering.
- Comment on What is a stupid question? 1 year ago:
You shouldn't ask a stupid question on AskLemmy.
- Comment on What is a stupid question? 1 year ago:
Then we're going to be here a while.
- Comment on If I live in a red state, would it be better to vote for rfk to take votes away from trump? 1 year ago:
There are people who think the bOtH SiDeS people are a strawman. To them, I present aviationeast.
- Comment on If you had a drain that you knew was clogged only with hair, could you unclog the drain only using Nair? 1 year ago:
cloggedshowerthoughts
- Comment on Planning to propose in a few months, what should I look for in a good value engagement ring? 1 year ago:
You're right, though. It doesn't make sense based on the parent comment. I think I misread it as asking if lab grown are OK values-wise. Instead it was asking if they are a good value.
My bad.
