  I’ma give you something to cry about

  Smell the Glove

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Home renovations⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You definitely can.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Home renovations⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You are going to need more voltage.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it really dangerous to fall sleep in the bath?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This thread is wild simply because I don’t know any adult humans who actually take baths, and I have honestly always assumed the reason they exist at all is for washing small children.

  Yeah, love is nice, but have you ever tried a Trident II D5 SLBM with 8 adjustable yield MIRV warheads?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Start-up idea⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Basically commercial grade equipment. A $10k oven/range which is designed to work 15 hours per day non-stop in a restaurant will last forever in your home. All the commercial manufacturers make “consumer sized” versions of their restaurant stuff for high end home kitchens.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Start-up idea⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You can buy appliances which will last that long, but they cost a lot of money. The reality isn’t that people forgot how to make things durable, it’s that consumer demand is so conditioned by price, most people “prefer” to spend less on appliances they will replace more often.

  The average appliance these days is actually significantly cheaper when adjusted for inflation compared to the 60s and 70s.

  For incandescent bulbs the power drop around the zero voltage cross doesn’t last long enough to extinguish the filament, since it’s basically just glowing from being heated. The only lights which actually do “flicker” under nominal conditions are old ballast driven florescent lights. Most modern LEDs rectify the AC and modern CFLs boost the line frequency to like 20kHz to prevent the arc from getting extinguished.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it normal I feel embarrassed about being female sometimes because of feminine smells I don't want to be associated with?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Your gay friends were having a chuckle. Women don’t smell like fish unless there’s a serious hygiene issue. And then it’s more like regular BO with a bit of a twang.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube sponsorship starter pack⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly he’s one of the only creators where I don’t just skip the sponsorship segments, because they are actually humorous and he frequently models the underwear for us.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just say the word⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I would do this and develop a drinking problem.

  Like, a bigger drinking problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just say the word⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean I hate kids but I like money. $12M is honestly about $11.7M past that inflection point though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Before social media/internet/cell phones/landlines/payphones; how would 2 friends living across the same city arrange in person meetings and stay in touch?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That vacant lot. The one in the summer where we used to smoke pot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you think my games should have optional calls to assembly functions for certain CPUs and GPUs if possible.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is called compute dispatching and is super common. I have done a whole bunch of DSP implementations where you use a CUDA or AVX kernel depending on availability. Or you dispatch to standard library or even Python kernel otherwise.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨America Is Slow-Walking Into a Polymarket Disaster⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A disaster because idiots will lose money?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If trump is really implicated in Epsteins pedo-ring what is your theory as to why this wasn't leaked by an opposition leader?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  What more evidence do you need that hasn’t already been leaked? There’s not going to be a notarized letter which says “I, Donald Trump, Fuck Children.”

  On the other hand, there is a fucking birthday letter to Epstein where Trump very clearly does a “wink wink we have the same secret wink wink.” Like it literally calls his relationship to a known pedophile a “wonderful secret.”

  Ok, that was always allowed!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is Substack and why all the sudden do all the content creators seem to be on it?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s live journal for tryhards and pseudointellectuals.

  Don’t get me wrong, there’s good stuff on there as well, but it’s mostly just the newest “every opinion has an asshole” platform.

  Fellas, is it gay for a woman to massage your prostate?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mom with the real questions ⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The style is wrong though. We have a minimalist modern space, so a big orange cabinet honestly just doesn’t fit. We are allowed to decorate the way we like without being held hostage by our parents and grandparents aesthetic preferences.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨publication maxxing⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  At my peak, I easily posted a million words a year to Reddit. The idea that I wasn’t putting that effort into actual productive writing is definitely an idea I’ve had many, many times.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I love science⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Honestly the standard curriculum was fine. It was when you got into trying to apply those skills to deciphering academic literature in a meaningful way as part of a broader career which got tricky.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's the dream⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a picture of the Amine heroine sailor Moon sleeping in a bed. The meme is meant to indicate that if given a choice in the matter, OP would rather stalk young girls and watch them sleep instead of whatever activity they had previously agreed to, which has now been cancelled, this allowing OP to pursue his true passion.
