dis-uniting states
- Comment on Save the planet, hold your breath 2 weeks ago:
The CO2 we breath out is recycled from carbon that is already on the Earth’s surface. But much of the food we eat relies on fertilizer synthesized from fossil methane. That additional fossil methane is added to the atmosphere during fertilizer production.
- Comment on Why is AOC a big deal? She just speaks common sense and calls out absurdity. Have we really gone that far off the rails where we don't do it ourselves? 3 weeks ago:
Disinformation is so widespread, largely because of O&G marketing firms, that speaking common sense has become a big deal.

Stephen Miller on CNN actually said he considered djt to have limitless power (plenary authority) and then awkwardly froze as if he hadn’t wanted that to slip out.
- Comment on Libraries are cool 8 months ago:
Ok. Sometimes I don’t bother trying to tell apart a joke from a real concern. I mean, who knows what a struggling publisher would say. No worries.
- Comment on Libraries are cool 8 months ago:
First time I’ve ever seen anyone speaking out against lending and borrowing.

Celsius died in 1744, but according to Fahrenheit, that will only happen in 3171.
- Comment on Scientific explanation 9 months ago:
(no one does … he doesn’t say if that’s a number of ounces or a number of metric tons …)

You need the length for each side. Make triangles. Double each one into a parallelogram. bh/2 for each one.
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 9 months ago:
The CPU and screen are already in the car for other things. No cost there. And I don’t think you actually know how to make a nob.

Volume is also nothing but polygons, where you get more accurate results the more slices you cut it into.

That only depends on what badge they put on the hood.
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 9 months ago:
The screen could well be more expensive than the dial parts, but installation would be cheaper, so we’d need the numbers. The thing about software is that it’s very expensive to make but selling price is as low or high as you need it to be.
- Comment on There was no need to ever improve upon THIS 9 months ago:
That has 5 moving parts, while a touchscreen has none. It much easier and cheaper for the manufacturer to install the touchscreen. But instead of passing the savings to you, they probably keep it or pass it on to investors.

Bamboo straws make you feel like your on some exotic, tropical island!
- Comment on AWS crash causes $2,000 Smart Beds to overheat and get stuck upright 9 months ago:

You forgot to divide by 8, multiply by 12, subtract 32 and add 9/5.

In the US, it converts to 3 cups, a half-quart and a couple of floz.
- Comment on Texas National Guard arriving in Chicago 10 months ago:
The NG has no business being in the public eye and confronting the police at their own job. This is like me popping up at your job in camo with a gun and watching you. Yeah no, not doing anything crazy though.
- Comment on Texas National Guard arriving in Chicago 10 months ago:
This is totally djt pitting GOP vs Democrats, and it’s much MUCH worse than burning the American flag.
