- Comment on How many hands long do they get? 6 days ago:
We even measure the same thing using different standards. The three tyre measurements are taken in mm, mm, and inches.
I put it down to us being smarter than everyone else.

Six strawmen in a single post! Well done, that must be some kind of record!
- Comment on Political discourse 1 week ago:
That’s still an oversimplification. In reality political opinion varies across a spectrum; it’s not just hard left, hard right, or no opinion. My own views for example are a little left of centre with a leaning towards liberty (i.e. away from authoritarian). So of course I get called a nazi by the hard left, and a tankie by the hard right, both of which are utter nonsense.

- Comment on If the UK government proposed to increase tax by 1% and make trains free would you be in favour? 1 week ago:
No. Trains go from nowhere near where I live to nowhere near where I want to go, except in rare circumstances like if I stay in London for a few days. I did go through a phase of being dependent on (non-London) trains and hated every minute.
So for me it’d be yet more tax with no benefit.

I thought it was the guy on the left for looking too much like Rick Wakeman.

- Comment on That's an impressive drop. Any ideas why? 3 weeks ago:
Maybe that’s the problem. A lot of the ladies I know say that sort of thing is uncomfortable.
- Comment on Joseph is still not buying her story 3 weeks ago:
Luke 1 says the Holy Spirit came on her, so I’m not sure how she got up the duff from that. Maybe she had to scoop up the holy jizz and shove it up herself.
- Comment on I may swear like a pirate, but I'm a fucking PRINCIPLED pirate 3 weeks ago:
Given the context he’s talking about judging people by their looks. You cannot tell just by looking at someone whether or not their immigration status is legal. You need more information than just their apparent ethnicity.

Do you think AI did that on its own, or did a human come up with the gag and use AI to illustrate it for them, maybe because they were crap at drawing?

Yeah you’re right to be cautious. A random user ID and a state name is more than enough for the Feds to be able to figure out whose door to kick in.

- Comment on Former magistrate, 81, faces six months in jail for Palestine Action vigil 1 month ago:
What I don’t understand is why people are choosing to die on this hill. Supporting Palestine Action isn’t the only way to support Palestine, and if they’ve been essentially disbanded by the proscription (bank accounts frozen etc) then it isn’t even an effective way to give support in any meaningful sense. The banner “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine.” would be legal, and arguably more effective than the longer one because (in theory at least) it should be unopposed by law.

- Comment on I try to spice it up with some VB Macros but it's still ultimately just a spreadsheet. 1 month ago:
Well I for one would be delighted to cross 35 years of software engineering with a maths hobby but I can hardly find anything.
The only place I did find declared that I didn’t have enough maths without even seeing me or saying what kind of maths I would need for the role. From the JD it didn’t sound too tricky: pathfinding for construction robots.

- Comment on My first colonoscopy 2 months ago:
Would an AI have made this on its own though, or might someone have typed “Lego set My first colonoscopy [etc]” into an image generator? If the latter you can still laugh with the person that had the original idea even if they didn’t draw it themselves.
