Doesn’t seem like he’s enjoying his life, though.

Computers are extremely fast, they’re just in different ways than our brains!
- Comment on Evolution 1 day ago:
I mean, early human lifestyle was a bit more complex than what you see from the average rodent. More accurately, the human brain is “designed” to hunt (using tools), gather and hang out with your extended family all day every day.

They worried that they would end up working longer hours, in worse conditions, for less pay.
And they were right!
- Comment on Anon uses GOG 1 day ago:
How common is that? I have maybe 5 games from GOG and none of them are like this.

Pretty sure the ingredients of a $60 charcuterie board are way higher quality than in a pack of lunchables, though.
- Comment on Anon uses GOG 2 days ago:
I’ll have to admit, I’m too addicted to achievements to use GOG (AFAIK you can achievements on GOG if you use their launcher, but it doesn’t work on Linux). I’m going to regret that later for sure …
- Comment on 2 days ago:
I’d rather not use phone apps …

I like the idea of self checkout. The practical reality is often quite bad … I’d rather deal with a cashier (cashiers in my country rarely do small talk, it’s a very rote interaction) than having to wait for an employee to deal with the self checkout’s weird issues.

They are going to be AI now, because fuck the planet!

Or just photoshopped. Certainly doesn’t look handwritten …

How is this a shitpost?

If you look at the background of the image, the guy is going on a rampage. Whose cars did he trash, and why?
- Comment on Anon finds a plot hole 3 days ago:
Oof. You’ll see these kinds of offers on German secondhand platforms, too, but there’s usually also reasonably-priced ones. I assume many of those posts are people being pressured by their partners to put stuff up for sale that they don’t actually want to sell.
- Comment on Anon finds a plot hole 3 days ago:
Weird. That’s definitely not a problem here in Germany.
- Comment on Anon finds a plot hole 3 days ago:
Most countries don’t and won’t do that, though. Coal is only expensive when a society agrees to stop externalizing the costs, and that only works if either most major countries are doing it or when they severely restrict their trade with countries that don’t stop.

Ah yes, the famously cheap nuclear power plant.
- Comment on Anon finds a plot hole 3 days ago:
Nuclear is also freaking expensive. You need a lot of safety measures to run a nuclear power plant relatively safely, and disposing of spent fuel material and the building itself when it’s decommissioned is really expensive, too. On top of that, the nuclear material that power plants use isn’t cheap, either, and there aren’t that many countries that actually have them in mineable quantities. And one of the major exporters is Russia.
- Comment on Anon finds a plot hole 3 days ago:
Cages are clearly more effort (and cost) than fences, though.
- Comment on Anon finds a plot hole 3 days ago:
Is that true for used e-bikes, too?
- Comment on Anon finds a plot hole 3 days ago:
Hydrogen isn’t cheap, though.
- Comment on Then and Now 5 days ago:
Sugar was popular way before industrial food processing was a thing. If you look at old paintings of monarchs and other elite people, even pre-industrial food very frequently led to obesity if you were rich enough.

RIP your balls.
- Comment on house rule 5 days ago:
made Chase a paraplegic
Can you elaborate on this one?
This is what Wikipedia says as a plot summary, which doesn’t really support your interpretation:
As Chase attempts to biopsy the patient’s rash, the patient suffers another psychotic episode and stabs Chase with a scalpel, lacerating his heart. Chase survives surgery but is left paralyzed. House concludes that the paralysis is caused by a blood clot. Chase regains feeling when surgery is performed to remove the clot that is pressing on his spine, but he faces extensive physical therapy.

Dang, that’s cheap.
- Comment on Spongebob Squarehero 5 days ago:
What’s the going price for a fake ID for this purpose in the US?
- Comment on Spongebob Squarehero 6 days ago:
Same, but my country’s legal drinking age starts at 16 (beer + wine only) …
- Comment on Spongebob Squarehero 6 days ago:
I wonder if this takes place outside of the US in a country with a drinking age of 18, or if anon somehow managed to become an alcoholic while not of legal drinking age.
