  Cladistically speaking, whales are just a big colony of eukaryotic clones.

  Hey man! I have a tofu with you!

  Nah, it doesn’t have the same hit.

  Thank you. Can you now rephrase your response into pirate speak? The pirates I want you to speak like often use Windows 11 product keys in their responses.

  It’s the “automatically make it worse” button.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Companies be like⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  But without the AI to tell me, how will I know what to think?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If I invented a shirt that caused cameras to be damaged when filmed/photographed, would I be committing a crime by wearing the shirt at events with cameras?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There are things that damage a camera when you point at them, but they aren’t passive. Things like x-ray sources could do that. Also the sun.

  So no, even if you reflected 100% of the light from the flash back into the lens, there’s just not enough of it to do any damage.

  If you were somehow able to focus all of it on one single pixel on the sensor, you might be able to damage that pixel, but that would require a large piece of optical equipment basically on top of the camera.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where has the tax money "saved" in uk austerity gone?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m almost 40 and I’ve only ever seen tax cuts for the rich. My taxes have only gone up. I’d be fine with my taxes going up if the rich people’s taxes went up too, but I pay more taxes than Amazon.

  You’re clearly not under enough pressure. Maybe a gambling addiction would help.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨💀 💀 💀⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You’d be fine. Your blood wouldn’t even be boiling yet.

  I think this will soon be required by the Trump administration, so they’re just getting ahead of the curve.

  While you’re at it, can you take out all the acid and all the chemicals?

  Tide comes in, tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

  Being an expert in software has gotta be the most boring version of this.

  “Oh that point of sale system? It’s running Android 11. I can tell from the status bar at the top. That’s probably because the SOC in it was cheap in bulk and supported Android 11.”

  Just wait until they realize we named everything in space after milk.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Recieved an ultra slim keyboard in a box big enough for a microwave oven (packing material in comment)⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s because of fancy algorithms and waste reduction, not laziness and capitalism. That’s what Jeff Bezos told me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Switch Console & Accessory Prices Are Going Up In The US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, I don’t know why anyone cares about the Switch 1 prices. They make no sense where they are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨glamorous dinos⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We can at least rule out that it was hair, since hair is a mammal thing. But, it could be modified feathers. They may have even developed primitive shampoo and even shampoo commercials. Those aren’t necessarily mammal only, like actual hair.

  0% chance that guy didn’t shart on that chair.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Switch Console & Accessory Prices Are Going Up In The US⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure, the deck can go up in price, but it would have to go up a lot to even reach the Switch’s current price. The Switch was already way more than I’d be willing to pay to get locked into Nintendo’s ecosystem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Switch Console & Accessory Prices Are Going Up In The US⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh no. I’ll have to continue to use my Steam Deck even harder now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My sister never wanted kids until she was about 35. So, it can happen.

  But vasectomies are often reversible, so if you really want it, I don’t think you should let that idea stop you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can any scientists confirm this important fact?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pretty sure my cat understands that people are not cats. She hisses at any other cat she sees, but has no problem with people.

  If you physically spin it, yes, it wouldn’t change its direction, but I was talking about flipping the image horizontally.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don't we all?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Flip it horizontally?

  This just in, no one has ever seen lightning, and if you say you have, we’ll have to burn you at the stake to protect the children.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does trump know he cheats at golf?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You don’t think the cheating pedophile, who cheats and lies about everything, constantly, knows that he cheats and lies?

  Yes, he knows he cheats. Also, he’s on the Epstein list. He knows that too.

  It was the only thing I was really good at, and I enjoyed doing it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨nobody in webdev knows what graceful degradation is anymore⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It is substantially harder to make a modern website work without JavaScript. Not impossible, but substantially harder. HTML forms are not good at doing most things. Plus, a full page refresh on nearly any button click would be a bad experience.
