  Joke’s on you I’m taking a massive shit right now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'll take it to all 2 place it goes!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  In my experience the MARC is pretty reliable. And mostly empty.

  Not that I disagree in general, but funny to me to choose that one specifically.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Republican Party used to be very big on smaller government. What caused them to turn into the party of big government over reach? When did it happen?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It was never about small government. It was about exploitation and conteol.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lots of things can cause this.

  Long covid ME/CFS Alzheimer’s Magnesium deficiency B12 deficiency Circulatory issues / poor cardiovascular conditioning Frequent alcohol use

  You should see a doctor.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come not all people are organ donors? It's not like they will need them where ever they go.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve got a family member who has heard tell of folks having their organs harvested while still alive, and that’s enough for them to say no. Helps them sleep at night, so fair enough. Your peace of mind has value.

  Also I think maybe the catholics are against it? It would fit their whole schtik. Can’t day I care enough about what they think to find out though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why in America is .08 the legal limit for drunk driving? How come it's not an even 0.10? Who decided at what level being drunk starts? Then 4 beers of 12oz's is 0.08 why is it that small?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It shouldn’t be 0.0%, but 0.08% is quite generous. At 0.02%, it is clearly detectable with equipment but you aren’t likely to notice. Some people also naturally have a constant BAC in the 0.01% range. At 0.05%, you definitely feel it and are twice as likely to cause an accident than sober.

  4 beers in an hour is a significant amount. People who drink that much and drive are not hardasses. They are murderers.

  Get off the 4road.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fuck you Whatsapp⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re absolutely sure they won’t take a phone call about a quarter million dollar sale or whatever?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨About what people are talking to each other nowadays⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I am sad for you that you do not see the intrinsic value in the company of other people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Neat.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  All of you disappear when I close the app. This isn’t my life. Do what you want.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope. Fuck em.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The red bull guy who jumped from space what was going on with his body when him and his suit broke the sound barrier?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The “sound barrier” is a term chosen for dramatic flair to describe the increase in air resistance as velocity approaches the speed of sound in that air.

  The speed of sound in air is definitionally the maximum speed a which a compression wave can propagate through that air. As you move forward at faster and faster speeds, the air in front of you has less time to move out of your way as you approach the speed it can compress. That increase in resistance constitutes the “barrier”. Exceeding the speed of sound thus results in that “barrier” transitioning into a conical shock wave propagating outward from the object traveling at speed. (All of that is rather simplified.)

  So, no. From Felix’s perspective, he experienced a significant increase in air resistance as his speed increased, transirioning to a relatively consistent degree of resistance with a conical shockwave which he may or may not have been able to perceive from the point of view of being its origin as he accelerated beyond Mach 1.

  He would likely have needed to consult instruments to know he had reached that kind of speed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why is most music today follow a math cadence? Then add rhyming? Are artist today really that bad they have to resort to that instead of it natural stuff?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  …I can’t.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you avoid AI music?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  By not letting an AI choose what you hear.

  Seems pretty obvious, really.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t matter. He was a piece of shit already.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What do you think happens if I stop using AI for a month?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I take it you haven’t stopped yet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We do not get a choice of how we come into this world or who we came into this world by but how come we can't go out on our own, wouldn't that be a full life doing everything u wanted 2 do?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, you may not have permission, but you have agency.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Top tip⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, sterile ice seems useful maybe probably?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come people don't compliment other people on great word usage? If someone use the word lets say ecclesiastical or something like that they do not get complimented it shows they respect English.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Because fluency in your native language is a basic human skill that should be a minimum for functional adulthood, maybe? Because it’s not my job to congratulate you for existing?

  Damn. People want to be coddled on everything these days.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Well done, all of you!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You sure are, big boy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Well done, all of you!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not in the context of any jobs that a person of any intelligence would consider “walkable”, no.

  Since that’s what we were talking about, I presumed you were smart enough to understand that “walkable jobs” would exclude all of the things you just asked me about. I apologize for making undue assumptions about you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Well done, all of you!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If your job makes you take a welder home with you at night, you need a new job.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would you feel if someone said you deserve cancer or to die?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You a republican or something?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just give me someone to vote for who is normal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Read that again. Slowly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My god, you poor idiot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is MMA and UFC "somewhat" rigged like boxing was in the Don King era?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  All pro sports are fixed.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are you using your laptop (with internet) that still runs Windows10?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  All my laptops are running Linux. Daily driver is currently on Manjaro with a dual boot to a very stripped down Win11 for some professional software with no Linux version.

  Main PC is on Mint.

  HTPC is on Win10 and I do not give a single shit what happens to that installation. Its purpose is to run Steam and VLC. If it gets a virus, it gets a virus. If it steals my info and sends it to China, then someone in China will know I play Jackbox games and watch weird arthouse Japanese movies. I could not care less.
