Online multiplayer games used to be fub but they have really gone downhill recently.
The most fun I have ever had in a video game was hunting a bear in RDR2 to make clothing with the pelt. It took several days but I think that’s what made finding the bear so satisfying.

There is currently no public breakdown of U.S. data center water consumption by AI versus non-AI workloads. However, AI appears to account for a minority of total data center compute and electricity demand today, suggesting its share of water consumption is also likely to be a minority, though the exact proportion is unknown.
However I can give some examples of cloud services:
AWS / Amazon data centers used roughly 2.5 billion gallons globally in 2025

Google data centers used roughly 7.7 billion gallons globally in 2024

All U.S. data centers: about 17.4 billion gallons/year direct water consumption in 2023, projected to reach 38–73 billion gallons/year by 2028. That includes cloud, AI, enterprise, colocation, storage, etc.

Safe travels through whatever dimension that logic came from. Don’t let reality inconvenience you too badly.
- Comment on How men are different than women 1 month ago:
That source you screenshotted literally says “not well studied or clearly proven.”
You’re cherry picking information and you know it.
- Comment on How men are different than women 1 month ago:
No. Nobody should say that. Just don’t make the mistake of thinking all men are like that. How could you possibly know that all 4.1 billion men on earth are the same when you have only met a tiny fraction of them?
I think it’s hilarious that you said men have lower empathy and then proceeded to demonstrate that you have little empathy.
You seem to have the emotional intelligence of a wet napkin.
- Comment on How men are different than women 1 month ago:
There are a lot of sweeping conclusions and self-loathing in your comment, but i’d just like to point out the irony and hypocrisy in what you said.
You said “Men have reduced empathy” while simultaneously advocating visible disgust toward male coworkers and assuming moral guilt by category membership.
Guess what. That’s not empathy either.
A disciplined man is not the same thing as a dangerous man. The internet increasingly struggles to tell the difference.
- Comment on AAA Dominance Is Eroding: 56% of PC Gaming Revenue Now Goes to Games Outside the Top 20 2 months ago:
Because AAA doesn’t just mean “new game”. AAA is about budget, the size of development teams, the time it takes to make, and monetization layers. The AAA industry is struggling because they don’t really make games like they used to.
- Comment on AAA Dominance Is Eroding: 56% of PC Gaming Revenue Now Goes to Games Outside the Top 20 2 months ago:
The only AAA game that I have legitimately enjoyed and played more than once is Red Dead Redemption II. Other AAA games are okay, but they feel a bit hollow and lack the immersion that RDR2 has. Then again, RDR2 was showing off a bit with what the industry can do.
- Comment on AAA Dominance Is Eroding: 56% of PC Gaming Revenue Now Goes to Games Outside the Top 20 2 months ago:
No. AAA games don’t really exist anymore. They’re a thing of the past.

Because the foreskin isn’t just a useless spare part. From an evolutionary perspective, it serves a purpose.
Think of it like buying a car and modifying the transmission. The car still performs it’s primary function, but in a way that comes with trade-offs.
Circumcision is the same. Removing the foreskin (modifying the transmission) might improve some things like hygiene, but it will also completely remove the penis’ natural barrier to protect itself from excess friction
- Comment on type shit 2 months ago:
You’re right. My bad
- Comment on type shit 2 months ago:
Yeah, but that’ super rare. Only around 0.6% of boys experience it before they’re 15. Even if you’re born with true pathological phimosis, circumcision is usually a last resort because topical steroids are safer and have a pretty high success rate.
“The incidence of pathological phimosis is 0.4 per 1000 boys per year or 0.6% of boys are affected by their 15th birthday.”
- Comment on type shit 2 months ago:
Fair enough. But if that’s the point…why? You’d just be making it harder to reproduce at that point
- Comment on type shit 2 months ago:
I’ve never understood it, even for religious reasons. It’s not medically necessary, and it weakens your sex organ’s ability to do the thing it is supposed to do.
- Comment on cool cool cool 2 months ago:
It’s cool because reincarnation turning out to be true would mean that humans are more than just bags of meat being controlled by electrical signals via the central nervous system. If you die and part of you reappears as another being, clearly something about a person can exist beyond the physical brain. That would be a HUGE paradigm shift.
Also a lot of people who believe in reincarnation believe that good karma vs bad karma affects what you come back as. That would give life meaning and give people an incentive to be good.
- Comment on cool cool cool 2 months ago:
Interesting. I personally don’t believe in reincarnation, but I really like the concept. It would be super cool if it was proven to be true.
- Comment on cool cool cool 2 months ago:
But you won’t be conscious to experience it. You won’t be aware of it when it happens, so why are you afraid?
- Comment on School of hard knocks 2 months ago:
I actually agree with this one and i’m saying that as someone who has a degree.
There are different kinds of intelligence and not all of them are necessarily going to get you a job. You could have multiple degrees and still be an idiot
- Comment on cool cool cool 2 months ago:
“You do not experience a lack of signal”
Perhaps that’s what was throwing me off
- Comment on cool cool cool 2 months ago:
Absolutely not. Biologically, death is defined as the irreversible cessation of all vital functions that keep an organism alive. The brain permanently loses all activity.
Your brain literally sends electrical signals around your body via your central nervous system. That stops when you die.
- Comment on cool cool cool 2 months ago:
May I ask, what exactly do you think death is? What you just described is not how death works at all.
- Comment on cool cool cool 2 months ago:
Completely different situation. You’d still remember that ice cream existed. When you die your ability to remember will be gone.
- Comment on cool cool cool 2 months ago:
And do you think that you will somehow still be conscious after you die? Your ability to experience will not exist when you die either. I thought that was common sense, but apparently not.
- Comment on What's wrong with Ellen DeGeneres? 2 months ago:
I’m unsure. I’m not interested in celebrities. Though I have seen some clips of her show where she has been pretty rude to her guests. Her name also appears in the Epstein files.
- Comment on Moon Mommy Milkers 3 months ago:
Of course. I’m not denying it at all. It happened. I’m just saying i’m pretty sure the main critique was the technology of the time.
- Comment on Moon Mommy Milkers 3 months ago:
I’m not a moonlanding conspiracy theorist myself, but in their defense I think the main critique wasn’t that it isn’t possible, but that NASA didn’t have the technical prowess to pull it off in 1969
- Comment on Always use proper lifting technique 3 months ago:
Fair enough. Manual labor jobs do tend to have a “If it works and no one dies, we’ll call it safe” attitude. Thanks for clarifying that.
- Comment on Always use proper lifting technique 3 months ago:
Surely there are OSHA guidelines regulating that. I’m not calling you a liar. I’m just saying that pulling a 100lb chain 100ft vertically repeatedly would be brutally inefficient without mechanical advantage. If i’m not mistaken, riggers rarely use brute force alone for that kind of task.
