I think the other commenter was implying that independent engineers be consulted.

If the video exists, I’m sure she made it when she already needed Tylenol (hello, eight months pregnant is hell on your body), and took the recommended dosage.

Trade between most countries is settled in USD. Power of the petrodollar and all that.

None of this is untrue about Android though, which is now being locked down further. Meanwhile, AltStore PAL is expanding to Australia, Japan, Brazil and the UK over the next few months.
- Comment on People regret buying Amazon smart displays after being bombarded with ads 2 days ago:
Ah yes, I forgot about the F1 movie ad. As for the app store, yeah that’s been a mess for a long time but as are most content spaces. I don’t do discovery in the store itself so it hasn’t bothered me.
- Comment on People regret buying Amazon smart displays after being bombarded with ads 2 days ago:
You know it makes you look petty and stupid when you attack Apple in a way where you’re pretending every other companies issues are also theirs, right? Apple hasn’t had issues with ads in the UI before, and I’m pretty sure they still don’t (not sure what OC meant but am interested to learn). Yes, it’s a walled garden. Everyone knows it’s a walled garden. You aren’t contributing to the conversation by pointing that fact out.
- Comment on Daylight savings starts this weekend 1 week ago:
Alongside some excellent points made by others here, it also adds to the electricity cost of air conditioning because more people are at home during the hot evening daylight hours, and means we aren’t spending as much time sleeping during the coolest hours.

- Comment on Who the fuck needs an x axis anyway 2 weeks ago:
I’m aware of that. I guess my point was that the data isn’t inaccurate, but I supposed labelling it as “prevalence” is the point of contention.
- Comment on Who the fuck needs an x axis anyway 2 weeks ago:
I don’t understand why you or the person I’m replying to are for some reason seeming to dispute the higher rate of autism diagnosis? It’s a fairly well-established fact, the point of contention is why the rate is higher.

I mean, it says the source right there, it’s the CDC…

Oh yeah, I mean, that’s fucked. I have no idea what effect that’d have on your heart rate.

136bpm is fine if the person is, understandably, anxious.

That’s insane, my local optometrist would pawbably do that for free. I recently got new lenses for my frames and those were installed for free as far as I recall. Though I did order the lenses through them.

- Comment on 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Producers Promise Season 4 Will Be Better 3 weeks ago:
Terrarium was pawbably the only genuinely great episode this season, and it still didn’t really do anything new as there have been several Enemy Mine episodes in past series (The Enemy - TNG, Dawn - ENT). This season also had pawbably the worst SNW episode to date in Four-and-a-Half Vulcans, which was just all kinds of problematic.

[…]the aggressive push of current Political issues.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kirk_and_Uhura's_kiss
In the episode of Star Trek: The Original Series titled “Plato’s Stepchildren”, season 3 episode 10, first broadcast November 22, 1968, Uhura (played by Afro-American actress Nichelle Nichols) and Captain Kirk (played by white actor William Shatner) kiss. The episode is often cited—incorrectly—as the first interracial kiss on television. It was, however, the first instance in which a kiss between a black person and a white person on U.S. television was scripted, as an earlier kiss on Movin’ with Nancy was unscripted. The episode aired one year after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down nationwide laws prohibiting interracial marriage.
Star Trek has always been political.
- Comment on Mod of multi large world comms goes on attack against multiple users 3 weeks ago:
Except it’s not, it’s a call to end segregation and create one free, secular and democratic nation across the entirety of the original territory of Mandatory Palestine. Apartheid South Africa also segregated native peoples into tiny enclaves as a form of democratic suppression, and that was resolved by creating a one free and democratic nation:

That’s part of why South Africa was the nation that brought charges of genocide against the Palestinians to the ICC. It’s also why outspoken zionists like Elon Musk have recently tried to condemn “racism against white people” in South Africa.

So you’re from Northern Ireland? Are you talking about Ireland the landmass or the Republic of Ireland? Regardless, that’s just not factually correct. Ireland, Great Britain and all the surrounding smaller islands make up the British Isles. Here’s a video explainer: cgpgrey.com/…/the-difference-between-the-united-k…
- Comment on The Lenovo Legion Go 2 launches in October - it's heavier and very pricey 5 weeks ago:
I don’t get the complaint about price. These are supposed to be on the absolute high-end of the market and are much more powerful than a Steam Deck. At the same time, these MSRPs are set as high as they are because retailers want the ability to profit high on day one, and then offer deep cuts later on. That’s just how that system works. Valve only offer direct sales and AFAIK don’t offer discounts except where they’ve permanently cut a price.
