  To add to this, a new type of brain cell was discovered just last year. (I would have linked directly to the study but there was a server error when I followed the cite.)

  Didn't it just roll out to league of legends?

  And making assumptions like that is why you will continue to be out of touch :/

  You're kinda opposite reality on most other things you've said in this thread so I guess that tracks

  I hardly dream so I guess I would say "it's a dream when I wake up afterwards"

  Nothing wrong with asexuality if you arrive there by choice. I just think it's worth troubleshooting that loss of pleasure a little bit if you would like to be able to feel it, because it's pretty core to the human experience

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon loses his virginity⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think you ought to try a therapist first. I don't know your life but it kinda sounds like arousal might not be the root cause and something deeper is going on.

  That's an unorthodox side dish to say the least, but I suppose beggars can't be choosers.

  I can't believe that all this time I could have been getting my lunch for free at wikipedia.org

  Well most replies already suggested a LLM but good old fashioned search skills work fine too.

  For simple questions, as long as you know the correct terminology that is relevant, just asking the question of a search engine is usually good enough to turn up articles or stack overflow answers that'll help

  If you don't know the terminology or you struggle to ask a precise question despite your knowledge, going up one level , so to speak, and consuming more information about the stuff in the immediate context, can often either fill in the gaps to allow you to ask the right question, or sometimes it's the missing bit of info you didn't know you needed to solve your actual problem.

  Oh, lol, sorry for the sass in that case.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What the Hell Happened to my Cookies?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  did you try reading the article?

  If you’re sure you used butter at the correct temperature, you may have accidentally ‘warmed’ your butter by mixing it with an electric mixer for too long.

  Many cookie recipes start by creaming together the butter and sugar – this is just to combine the ingredients.

  If you do this for too long, your room temperature butter will get super warm – and then you’ll face problem 1. all over again.

  Pretty sure it's been in that territory for a dozen years or two already. 😞

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bernie Sanders Champions 32-Hour Work Week With No Loss in Pay⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  This is why we need unions.

  The autoworkers union the article refers to as an example is seeking a 46% pay rise to coincide with the transition to 32 hours.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bernie Sanders Champions 32-Hour Work Week With No Loss in Pay⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  "No loss in pay" as far as I can interpret it would mean getting paid the same for working 32 hours as you would have for working 40, yes

  The autoworkers union the article refers to as an example is seeking a 46% pay rise to coincide with the transition to 32 hours.

  By raw amount usually yes, by proportion of earnings/income usually no

  Nice, a three sentence callout without any refutation or detail.

  If you are so confident in their confident incorrectness, put at least a minimum of effort into furthering the discussion.

  Even if you can pull this off, it seems like a quick way to get fired or worse. You might consider whether there's an alternative means of affixing your badge that's less distracting/frustrating

  Username jokes can be low-hanging fruit, but I thought that one was fairly wholesome.
