- Comment on Is the moon tied up in the earth's gravitational pull at the very least? Or do both pulls match at some point to circle the earth? 6 days ago:
Not a physics major here, but that would have to be exceptionally weak to be pulled apart as I see it. Even on the surface of earth you can hold a piece of tissue paper up and effectively neutralize the force of gravity without it pulling itself apart.
The bonds holding the molecules together would have to be weaker than the force of gravity pulling them apart, which would essentially make it into a gas I suppose.

Boss just agreed to give $300,000,000,000 to Iran for his distraction war in addition to the costs of running it. You have no place to talk about acting in the public interest.
- Comment on What's the evolutionary advantage of very long hair on human heads? 2 weeks ago:
Way I figure, the common traits for any given part of the world where as much influenced by the isolation of groups as environmental factors. Back in primitive times it could take months wandering before you happened across another group, and even then there may be ‘untrusted tribe’ type conflicts.
It still shows up today in how rural isolated communities tend to foster more prejudiced attitudes towards people different from them. But now we can move all over quickly and communicate instantly, so there’s a less concentrated effect by location. Plus the whole advent of ordered society and the host of factors that brings into play.
- Comment on Why do businesses and other public facilities have a metal plate where the door knob should be? Is pushing open the door more sanitary or something? 4 weeks ago:
Trying to work a doorknob with your hands full of bags is a hassle that nobody needs. How many times of people banging into a door that didn’t properly unlatch would it take before something/someone gets damaged?

People like Al Capone would have a few things to say about unverified sources of wealth in any form. Pretty sure if I show up at a car dealer with a briefcase of bills it’ll raise a few questions too.

It’s possible, but there are so many catches as to be not practical as a daily use thing. Mine is mostly relegated to system notices and similar uses because I wouldn’t rely on it for anything that must get somewhere external.

I have split opinions on it. The massive data centers that use so much power, hardware, space, etc are problematic. They get used as a replacement for human ingenuity, scarf down every bit of data the can, aggregate it together in a way that even the owners don’t fully understand. They get manipulated to give answers that suit the owner’s wishes and fuel divisions in public discourse.
I take significantly less issue with locally run small model systems that you can put on your own machine. They’re not continually running/training and are generally treated more as a hobby toy, not some replacement for human understanding.

- Comment on Home-building robots could help fix the housing crisis 3 months ago:
At least in the US it hardly seems a lack of building capacity, but that the final prices are bid to levels outside for the reach of the average person by investors. I live at the edge of nowhere and in just the past half decade there where at least two fairly large developments of not too special copy paste houses stood up. They all entered the with prices on the upper end of $300K and seem to have gotten snapped up right away. Statistically I make more than the the average by a decent margin, but there’s no chance I’m paying for an almost $400K place. Even if I had the old 20% down it’d approach somewhere around $3000/month.
- Comment on Home-building robots could help fix the housing crisis 3 months ago:
Either the construction costs more by adding the bots to the crew, or they cost the same with the owners of said bots pocketing the difference of reduced labor. The chances of costs actually going down by cost savings being passed through are roughly zero.

Here’s a thought, don’t go starting a fight with someone when the DHS is under the review and that wouldn’t be a problem?
- Comment on Liminal Space 4 months ago:
Every time certain segments of society speak it causes small potions of the audience’s brains to drip out of their ears. These bits are scraped up off the floor and, after mixing well with some tapioca, come to plausibly resemble the mental functions of the person last heard speaking.
