  Yeah man you should really be using the pronouns your child wants you to use. I imagine that they have accepted that this is the best relationship they can have with you. They’re still your child and your unwavering support is important to building their self confidence regardless of whether they’re cisgender or transgender.

  I mean in this economy we all need a side gig. Honestly kinda gotta respect the hustle.

  Everything you touched had a thin sticky layer of cigarette smoke gunk on it. Hell I remember doctors casually smoking in examination rooms.

  The reason is actually quite simple. It owns the libs. Full stop.

  That and dark energy. Although this may apply for cosim super-voids and not a void in a cluster, but the expansion of space is faster in areas of space that have less mass than cosmic strings. So if someone built a ship and tried to enter a void they would have to overcome the velocity of the galaxy, the gravity of the galaxy, and the expanding space ahead of them.

  That’s exactly what happened. The supplier cut corners and the device didn’t flush the CO2 away resulting in an agonizing death suffocating on CO2. They also didn’t supply enough nitrogen and just used whatever tank they could procure from a welding supply store.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This place is a prison⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In my experience the library is often visited by homeless people because it’s free entertainment. A lot of the homeless people around my area are also alcoholics and have you ever tried to take alcohol away from an alcoholic. It’s not easy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Handy tip⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  While a prevalence of 0.8% may seem like a tiny amount but when applied to a large population it’s a significant number of people. Let’s say a city has a nice round 100,000 people, a small city by any measure. That’s 800 people, not such a small number anymore. The lives of those 800 people are worth thinking about. Granted in the context of a larger population but it’s still something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The rich convinced us that taxing them is too complicated but everyday people can be taxed pretty easily⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Have you heard of a federal reserve? Yes your bank doesn’t have your money, but someone does. Your money someone else has is insured by the federal reserve so bank runs don’t happen. You’re talking about an economy that existed 100 years ago.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I would like to play a calm game⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Agreed. Without the shift timer the game is almost peaceful.

  Same boat brother! Honestly I haven’t found anything yet that my AM4 doesn’t crush. Sure someday I’ll replace it. Someday.

  Detla pee is no joke

  How’s old Noah Dyck and his wife Anita Dyck? Has they’d evers invited ya’s to a Dyck meat party?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When traffic comes to a standstill, drivers instantly shift left and right to create a Rettungsgasse, an emergency corridor right down the middle, so ambulances⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No you haven’t. I’ve never seen this. I regularly see people who use the shoulders as passing lanes the moment traffic slows a little bit. Then completely block them. I see drivers trying to get in front or behind an emergency vehicle to take advantage of the rest of the drivers moving to the side with a complete disregard for how they’re slowing everything down. I’ve seen drivers proudly park their car infront of an emergency vehicle and block them, then honk and flip the firetruck off for trying to pass them. I’ve seen drivers shoot at emergency responders because they were blocking the highway. I have never seen American drivers making an emergency lane.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That kid was the WORST⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  14 year old me knows that if he ever sees me he should start running. Unfortunately for him I can just run 14-year old me over with the family van. Then back up. Then drive again. Then backup again.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WTF is this???⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s the break check peddle. You press it really hard on the highway to make sure that the person behind you has good breaks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I guessed⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  and watch the F out on a country road.

  This is the internet. You don’t have to censor yourself. You can say fuck here.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Literally exactly how it works, too.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay but that’s a dishonest argument. Sure reality is just perception and perception is unique to the individual. All that said words have meaning which we have agreed upon. Otherwise I could write gibberish, call it meaningful text, and prove anything. It’s the fact that words have specific meanings which makes them useful. Otherwise it’s baby talk and that’s cute but not great for communication.

  I’ve played StarFox64 but I never owned it or got very far. My only complaint is that it’s a remake of an old game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon sacrifices for the family⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Dude, Canada has always been a problem. Canada is a voluntary vassal state of the United States. It’s almost as bad as the United States.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Inspiring⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Except that’s not really how gravity works. The apple didn’t move, the apple was being accelerated by the tree until it fell. Then the ground and the apple accelerated to meet each other.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is embarrassed at school⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah okay you tell Mike Tyson he made that mistake. I’ll see you on the other side, cause that man can still punch your brain right out of your head.

  Gentlemen, may I take a moment to remark on the excellent attire of our good sir. It is unfortunately his rehetoric that reveals he is a lesser ape.

  Did I just watch someone learn something… On the internet?!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨owo⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You get it. Pushing AMPs is just a voltage significantly higher than the voltage required to jump a gap, or short a circuit, ect. Depending on your application. I like to think of it as a water slide, the source is the high end, the circuit is the slid, and the sink is the bottom of the slide.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Get. Out⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You differentiate yourself by being first. That’s partly why OpenAI and Sam Altmann are so fixated on bringing general AI to light. They know that if AGI is possible that the first one to reach it will see all the benefits. Second place gets nothing. Unfortunately it’s becoming more and more obvious that AGI is a dream and not actually possible.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I have a rasberry pi 5 collecting dust, what are some neat useful things i can do with it?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Then jump to Einstein@Home. They optimize their workloads for ARM64 architecture. Stop looking for aliens and start looking for pulsars.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Important Announcement⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  While I agree in principle, in practice policies like that end up backfiring. In this case the Nazi’s have taken over responsibility for enforcing the anti-nazi laws and wouldn’t you know it, the actual victims are the Nazi’s gosh darn it. It’s the anti-fascists who are the real fascist by preventing the fascist from the right to express their facism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Evidence⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No unfortunately it’s the future consequences. We’ve already passed the +2c of global warming two and a half decades earlier than expected. Which was the threshold for significant but not world ending effects if we had hit it in 2050. At our current pace we’re looking at the near worst case scenario by 2050, which only a small percentage of boomers might live to see. Most won’t see most of the effects of climate change.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you think Google execs keep a secret un-enshittified version of their search engine and LLM?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Controlled by LLMs perhaps not, but I believe that the execs pushing AI are drinking as much AI Kool aid as anyone you know who has AI psychosis. That could be why AI is so sycophantic. That is the social model execs in the big 7 want the world to treat them, and they’ve drank so much of their own Kool aid that they believe it now.
