Weird, you’d think the majority would disagree with it.
- Comment on Drop your unpopular opinions here because c/unpopularopinions is filled with popular opinions 6 days ago:
I see you also fit in with the popular crowd.

I see you don’t share my unpopular opinion.

Tobacco use is a character flaw.

Do you not wash clothes?
- Comment on I left Reddit for Lemmy. My story. 1 week ago:
Someone remind me in a few days when I read this guy’s alt accounts post a bunch of dreck about how blocking accounts just creates echo chambers and keeps you from being exposed to diversity that he tried to rip me off first.
I won’t see this account anymore so I’m counting on the rest of you.

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? 4 weeks ago:
It was never about small government. It was about exploitation and conteol.

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. 5 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? 5 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 The red bull guy who jumped from space what was going on with his body when him and his suit broke the sound barrier? 1 month 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 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? 2 months ago:
I mean, you may not have permission, but you have agency.
- Comment on Top tip 2 months 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. 2 months 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.

You sure are, big boy
- Comment on Well done, all of you! 2 months 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.

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