My point is that it hasn’t changed. People have always been people.
- Comment on Excuse the fuck me? 1 day ago:
Plenty of people before 2025 divorced for any number of reasons.
Plenty of people straight up murdered their spouse because divorce wasn’t an option.
Saying “people in the current culture we live in do not place any value on their word or honor” means you have no idea how people in the past lived.
People are today as they have always been, just with different gadgets and environment.

Been there, done that.

I’d find it hard to believe anything could happen that would cause the moon to be thrown out of it’s orbit enough to end up on the far side of the sun, but leave earth unaffected.
- Comment on Fell off the horizon into a black hole 5 days ago:
The universe is flat.
Most galaxies are semi-flat rotating discs of stars.
Only solid-ish objects like planets, stars, moons, and black holes are spheres.
- Comment on Elon Musk in a new controversy? 5 days ago:
Yeah, Musk himself made an “ElonGate” joke after the scandal where he (allegedly ) exposed himself to a flight attendant.
- Comment on [Any Austin] Do Red Dead Redemption 2's Power Lines Connect to Anything? 1 week ago:
Ok. The answer is yes.
But the context is what makes it interesting.
- Comment on [Any Austin] Do Red Dead Redemption 2's Power Lines Connect to Anything? 1 week ago:
With the AnyAustin videos, it’s the journey, not the answer.
If you just want a yes/no, this isn’t the video for you.

Anglerfish lengths can vary from 2–18 cm (1–7 in), with a few species larger than 100 cm (39 in).[36] The largest members are the European monkfish Lophius piscatorius (200 cm (6.6 ft) SL, 57.7 kilograms (127 lb)), the deep-sea warty anglerfish Ceratias holboelli (120 cm (3.9 ft) TL), the giant frogfish Antennarius commerson (45 cm (1.48 ft) TL), and the giant triangular batfish Malthopsis gigas (13.6 cm (0.45 ft)).[37][38][39][40]

Since the speed something is moving away is dependent on the distance, something billions of light years away is absolutely not going to be moving towards us, regardless of its local orbits.
- Comment on Uh oh lol 2 weeks ago:
If it’s blue shifting from that distance, then it’s likely some advanced technology is moving it in our direction.
There’s not many other explanations for that.

I think you misunderstand how good with computers anyone ever was. Back then if you didn’t care to learn, you just didn’t have one.
Now you either are interested and learn it, or you just use an iPad/iPhone. I know many, many people who never used anything more complicated than an iPad.

Never report vulnerabilities yourself to an organization, always use a neutral, trusted third party to report it.
- Comment on Real milk proteins, no cows: Engineered bacteria pave the way for vegan cheese and yogurt 2 months ago:
No mention of lactose.
Plant based, lactose free milk and cheese would be amazing.
No idea why they’d intentionally add lactose, so I assume it would just be naturally lactose free.
- Comment on Can you have an infinitely long wavelength of light? Or is there some maximum? 2 months ago:
Cause things get named CENTURIES before we understand them, and as we learn more, sometimes it makes sense to rename them, sometimes it is so engrained in daily life nobody would use the new names.

Cause using superman for his actual ideal use would be pretty boring for a comic book.
- Comment on The Lord of the Ringsy-Wingsy 2 months ago:
No, the Teletubbies are the Eloi from The Time Machine. They are simple creatures that can’t possibly understand the technology they use, so they don’t make it or maintain it.
They freak out and go to bed when the sun goes down. Probably because the Morlocks are coming.
The world is far too technologically advanced for it to be Hobbits. The Hobbits are specially written to be essentially self sufficient and don’t desire anything more advanced than beer (and magic fireworks.)

Only if there’s laws in place to keep the ultra rich from buying up multiple properties, otherwise it’s just an opportunity for people to keep hording homes to rent out.
- Comment on Ok, I'll pay you the 1995 price 2 months ago:
McDonald’s STILL has newspapers sitting in a rack next to the counter where I am. Growing up these places had magazines and newspapers available to read. People “back then” didn’t just randomly talk to strangers, they just kept themselves busy with other things.
Yes, there’s a problem with people not interacting physically anymore, but it’s not cause we have electronics, it’s cause people don’t have a place to go outside the home anymore. This is a problem with a lack of community centers and walk-able neighborhoods, not a problem with phones.

Yeah, this is why people don’t trust science. They look at the surface level of the PRESS RELEASE and then assume scientists are just making shit up.
There’s a ton of work done behind the pictures and there’s lots of revisions and changes as new evidence comes in. AND there is disclaimers on ever single “artist rendition”
Science is fucking hard, and the pretty pictures of the press release are just the fun parts that they use to advertise their hard work.
Then people take a brief look at the picture, call bullshit, then go smear them online.

If it’s a larger corporation, then you might get fired later no matter what, if it comes out. HR policy might require it.
If it’s a smaller corporation, it probably isn’t necessary.
I wouldn’t chance it.
- Comment on Stardew Valley creator says he might make Stardew Valley 2 4 months ago:
I think we’d all enjoy a fresh take on SDV. There’s probably a ton he’d like to change, but can’t without having to rework the whole thing.
He did a fantastic job making the game what it is by adding slowly to the game, but it’s certainly pretty disjointed and limited in a lot of ways.

- Comment on Academic email signatures 5 months ago:
Then a Mac user forwards your email to someone and your email header doesn’t show your email address in the forward and nobody down the line knows who sent the original email.
- Comment on Academic email signatures 5 months ago:
Cause when your email gets forwarded, the header doesn’t always go with it.
I’ve had to start putting my email address in my signature due to people not being able to contact me cause of that.
