- Comment on How would you evaluate having more pay vs an easier job? 18 hours ago:
Here is the thing. jobs very often are bs and its impossible to actualy know what the job will be like till your working it. So in general you go for more pay. Leaving a job that is definately bs for one that seems like it won’t be as much bs but pays less makes sense though. You have a known quantity at that point even if the unknown is a bit of a gamble.
- Comment on Do you think that Trump is the most hated U.S. president? 1 day ago:
easily trump. yeah you got bush junior and nixon and reagan but trump is not bad in one particular way. he is bad in every way. Hes killed us citizens with a personal paramilitary force. That alone is beyond anything you can point to with another president and yes. killing our own is a bigger deal than things that can be deflected in war. just like somone killing your spouse is going to be a bigger deal to you than a serial killer that did that thing somewhere far away that one time.
- Comment on What do you think of the posting of easily searched questions here? 1 day ago:
I assume any questions posed are looking for human answers from real human experience. If I answer by search I try to mention it as it should be taken with a grain of salt. I mean all answers should but I just like to make it clear my level of knowledge of the thing.
- Comment on What is it like being drunk? How much control do you have? 1 day ago:
alcohol is a depressent and like any drug it depends on how much you have had, your weight, and metabolism. Basicaly how much you have had vs how much it effects you. You might hear the term take the edge off. This is like a first stage. Depressent effect the nervous system and so it makes you less noticable of things which is relaxing. Next you have buzzed. Buzzed effects your reasoning and you are less inhibited. Assuming you where drinking in a good frame of mind and your atmosphere is good you get more chill and relaxed and also say stuff off the top of my brain more and just are easier being happy to be happy. Once you really drunk your senses and your sense of time is effected. Your decision making ability is way down and moving around is kinda clumsy but you usually find it kinda fun and funny. You likely have little to no filter at this point. At this point forward you may puke from over drinking. Then you get to stumbling or falling down drunk. Your now not walking properly and maybe you can a bit if you concentrate enough but your ability to concentrate is pretty gone. Your getting sleepy but often do not want to. Your like a kid or a golden retriever obsessed with any shiny or whatever. Next you will fall asleep and if you drank to much to fast you might go unconcious or you can even die but you have to be pretty irresponsible in your drinking to get to that point. People who drink a lot for a long time can function often times more at the various stages which gets them to drink more which makes it even more dangerous. you might hear alchol before beer and your in the clear, booze before beer and your going to lose. This is because most people, most of the time, want to get anywhere from mildly buzzed to mildly drunk. Having harder stuff early jump starts getting to there but if you don’t go to lighter fair you will overshoot and end up barfing or having a horrible hangover. While again it is highly dependent on the individual the rule of thumb is a person detoxifies about one light drink like a beer per hour. Theoretically one shot but its hard to nurse that for an hour. So the person goes to drinking beer at a slow pace. The other option of course is to just drink many beers an hour and then slow down.

I mean it is kinda funny given family members that are still allowed to have free room and board.
- Comment on Would it be better to just have a lot of society be underground? 4 days ago:
I wonder the same. Its a big up front cost as digging and drilling is expensive. After that I think it should not be an issue. Ventilation sure would need upkeep but given the milder temps I think savings vs additional ongoing costs should favor less cost at that point. It should be able to be done to not allow water to get in unnecessarily but it might make flooding worse above. Thing is except for deep mines we have not went that far underground. So like unless we did go that deep which would be that much more expensive or have buildings popping up to the surface then you would not have high rises. we would still be growing food on the surface which still takes a lot of land. My guess is it would just be better for people who don’t need to be way out like working or running in a farm live in a high desity urban area and get rid of the wasteful in between spaces.
- Comment on Making public transport fully accessible ‘could boost UK economy by £176bn’ 4 days ago:
I think it is a significant thing that many things. I mean almost all I come across. Of accessibility spending really helps everyone. Those curbs that slope down are nice if you have a wagon or a cart or a stroller. The additional audio for lights have likely reduced a few times where people get all absent minded while crossing. There are times when you could use a little private space like changing for an interview that the handicapped stall helps a lot. I 100% want to renovate where I live for handicap compatibility like big flip light switches for many places I have lived.

one reason I liked them as I liked to try and not kill anyone while doing missions. I actually got real annoyed that dumping an unconcious body killed it. Its like common no hide a body option that does not kill them?
- Comment on Is anyone else apprehensive to down voting even if you're being down voted? 4 days ago:
I do once in awhile but honestly I hate public voting. I would not mind a private ranking system for the feed that worked the way trustcafe works. I mean peoples public voting won’t effect the way I peruse the feed but yeah some things are bad enough that I feel I should hit the down arrow. I upvote practically everything though as it marks it as read for my feed view.

most of the cyberwware hack type of attacks don’t kill. I think suicide might be the only one as it causes them to kill themselves.

yeah. double jump is like the first cyberwar to get and the dex tree mid air dash is great. wait till you get the gun that lets you blast the motorcycle into the air.
- Comment on What's the difference between socialism and communism? Is there one? Or are the terms interchangeable? 5 days ago:
and again im not talking just communists. its how they like to talk about it and that is why who you are talking about. im thinking in terms of earlier utopian philosophies. similarly many people today say socialism when they basically mean european “ideal” (since so many still fall short) style social democracy

marx was not the first just the most well defined but his things came from philosophers before him. This is why the time period and who are talking to is important.

IQ is age weighted. taking it at the point where you are at the height of general learning and before you specialize to much should give you about the highest you will have. So like end of high school to end of college. maybe summer of sphmore year or just after taking the gre.

- Comment on Why do people get mad at you for using Wikipedia, but treat Google and AI chatbots like they're gospel? 1 week ago:
They don’t in my circles. I mean you always had to take wikipedia with a grain of salt and realize it can be brigaded and such but it by and large works. Ironically thats how one should take llms to except just more so. In both cases you need general understanding and reason when evaluating what you get from it and you need to use what you do know well to evaluate how good a job it does in general.
- Comment on What's the difference between socialism and communism? Is there one? Or are the terms interchangeable? 1 week ago:
so strictly speaking socialism is a central planned economy with various ideals deciding who makes the plans. Thats what most people think of with communism. Many folks now a days though will use the term to mean a social democracy which generally looks for the state to run important things that everyone needs or if more individual choice is needed then maybe subsidises it. It collects taxes and regulates but otherwise lets unimportant things be run by private groups. It looks to have a floor to peoples quality of life that it does not go below and to encourage an overall high quality of life for the populace.

ugh. My condo shared halls and such had this nice yellow and brown fall colors scheme and the board redid it with this white/blue/grey doctors office vibe. went from homey and warm feeling to sterile feel.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
scholarships can be for sports as well and sometimes there is even something just for being abroad due to the institutions wanting more cultural diversity. There have even been things if your country has few college grads. Granted though those last things are not as in vogue in the current us climate. Honestly you have to be a bit mad to want to go to the us from abroad at the moment. literally have been grabbin students with greencards and deporting them and not necessarily to the home country. Rule of law is vague at best here atm.
- Comment on Why can’t we swap our minds today? 1 week ago:
other organs is like plumbing. you mostly just have to connect up the blood pipes. nerves are way more complex. memory can’t be transfered at all. If it could be done its not really a brain transplant its a body transplant because the brain is the individual. thing is there are all kinds of things about your body that effects you so changing the body would change you a lot. hormones and such. it would be wild but its hard to say if we will ever be able to do something like that.
