  I’m still convinced he’s a sith lord, so I think he doesn’t talk as weird as he does when he’s not playing the bumbling idiot. But I probably would still prefer to look like him just in case.

  They build their homes in the pond out of reach of predators like wolves or bears. They also dig escape routes from their den under the water. They’re herbivores so it’s not for fish, btw.

  The hole for the tool (I actually don’t know the proper name) is small enough for ants to get through.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why does every commercial depiction of honey involve one of this things? Literally nobody has ever seen one of these in real life⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve got 3 of those at home (actually got one as a gift last week) but we don’t use it because the open honey jar attracts ants. So we use spoons. I do like it though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone in tech confirm?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I plan to open a bar when I stop working in tech. The farm life is not for me, but I love the atmosphere of a good bar.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Always wear protection, folks⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I bought my wife noise cancelling ear plugs for sleeping because I (in her words) snore like a pig. She has several recordings to back that up. So I bought her these noise cancelling earplugs (Soundcore A20 in case anyone is interested) in the hopes it will allow her to sleep. I will eventually get surgery done for it, because I also have apnea. She hasn’t put them to the test yet because it’s not always that she can’t sleep, but I hope they will serve her well.

  The amount of AI videos when it comes to animals is nuts these days, so I think this is a legitimate question to ask.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My Religion⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My brother was studying to become a Jesuit and there was this running joke amongst the Jesuits about praying where they would go “Why? God doesn’t exist.” This may sound hypocritical and it kind of is, but they consider the religion more a moral framework rather than something to rigorously believe in. That’s also why Pope Francis resonated with many non-believers because, at least the modern Jesuits, apply the moral lessons of the New Testament with a healthy dose of rationality (they are considered the intellectual branch of the church for a reason).

  Very few, if any, Jesuit these days believe in the existence of a god, but they find value in the moral framework and how they can apply that to make this world a better place. It’s the only religious order I can stomach to have conversations with.

  Initially it made a lot of sense though. The differences between each fifa version between the first one and 2003 were massive with each iteration. But as the graphics got better and better and the gameplay was more or less settled, it became less sensible to have a new edition each year. After fifa 2003 there were noticeably less differences between the iterations.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon travels overseas⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Restaurants per square mile? That’s an obscenely stupid metric for measuring obesity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You can do anything at Zombocom⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This guy made a sad face. You have to provide a picture now. We can’t sleep unless you do!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Rush⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Rush is actually a pretty good band. I remember listening to them a lot when I was 17-18. Now I have to listen to them again…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Neither an empire, nor chicken⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Last I checked it was a fast food chain.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You just had to ask that question⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The copilot in outlook feature is super handy for summarizing mails from one colleague who writes half a novel each time. That’s about the only handy use I have found for it, for the rest it’s annoying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FMK⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  The dead one or the new one?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨newbie player⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  And the river, but don’t ask them to play stud.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Internet Archive’s legal fights are over, but its founder mourns what was lost⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Preserving is important, sure. But if the settlement required them to delete it and they keep an offline backup and this ever gets out, the settlement is voided and it opens up a world of hurt for them.

  This is not a debate about the merits of preservation but about legal repercussions for the Internet Archive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Internet Archive’s legal fights are over, but its founder mourns what was lost⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And open themselves up to massive penalties? That would be beyond stupid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pornhub says UK visitors down 77% since age checks came in⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m glad to hear this. Some weeks ago I was pondering how to do age checks unanimously and this was pretty much the idea I came up with. It just makes a lot more sense because it does what you want without revealing anything private.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And what car did you learn in?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nissan vanette and ford focus. Don’t miss either of those and have an automatic now. I still drive a friend’s van from time to time which has a clutch, whoch is good so I don’t forget how to drive it. Although it still feels completely natural since I drove manual for 2 decades.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Show your pride⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s what it wants you to believe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Show your pride⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What about pyrite? Or Iron Maiden?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Excellent scale⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess 2, kinda happy with progress at work and in general, but not ecstatic.

  My honda civic has this perfectly balanced (this is a stock photo): Image

  Red bananas are great for oven baked fries too

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨English moment⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Beautiful, but is there really a difference in pronunciation of hose and dose? I always pronounce them similarly…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I do it at least 35 times just in case⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Megacancer balls

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hows keto working out for you⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sounds about right for average US bagel size.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon shops for diamonds⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I buy my wife jewelry with artificial diamonds, not because she wants it, but because I love to see her wearing it. She calls me a magpie for good reason.

  Ooh sparkly things!

  This is just one day. Most of these stocks are still up for the week.
