- Comment on Recognize the mother of Wifi 1 week ago:
Uh I don’t think there was Wifi before that
- Comment on ‘In the US they think we’re communists!’ The 70,000 workers showing the world another way to earn a living 2 weeks ago:
think we’re Communists
It’d be cooler if you were.
But definitely cooperatives would be a HUGE improvement over what we have now.
- Comment on Those were the days 2 weeks ago:
Well first of all who actually has their ringer on anymore
And secondly it was WAY more of a pain in the ass back then
- Comment on Can I lick it? 2 weeks ago:
I’d say downgrade Mercury to yellow. Licking Mercury won’t hurt you as long as you hold your breath.
Having it close to your breathy parts is always not a great idea though.
- Comment on So close. Once again missed the mark by a mere 1%. I was at 68% at this time last year. 2 weeks ago:
16:20 just doesn’t have the same effect though
- Comment on It's finally up! Please sign it if you're in the UK :) Petition: Require videogame publishers to keep games they have sold in a working state. 3 weeks ago:
I think a minimum would be open sourcing the server backend, or at least a compatible one, once servers reach EOL.
- Comment on Look for the warning signs 3 weeks ago:
Well I’m a card carrying communist party member who also wears a lot of Carhartt so uh…
- Comment on English, old 4 weeks ago:
Esperanto is a sane and sensible language
- Comment on Home maintenance 4 weeks ago:
Breathe sewer gasses instead!
- Comment on LPT: Free Money 5 weeks ago:
No, it’s just that normally nobody WANTS to stare at the sun but that day everyone will be.
Glancing at the sun once or twice won’t destroy your eyes obviously.
If you’re in the path of totality you can look at directly when it fully covers the sun, it will be about as bright as a full moon. But that’s only a few minutes, then you can’t look at it (without protection) again.
- Comment on I have unlimited cellular data on my phone but not if I use it as a hotspot. 5 weeks ago:
Uh?
- Comment on Anon buys an air fryer 1 month ago:
Also compared to a full size convection oven, the airflow is much faster and more concentrated in an air fryer, giving not just faster cooking times but a crispier skin effect
- Comment on Anon buys an air fryer 1 month ago:
It’s a concentrated convection oven. It’s not magic, but I definitely like mine. Great for side dishes like roasted veggies. Also uses wayyyyy less power and time than a full oven when you’re only baking something small enough to fit in an air fryer

- Comment on Yeah UPS, that's proof 1 month ago:
You absolutely, 100000% should. Just be careful, keep it semi-anonymous. I say this as someone who has been fired for talking about their employer online lmao.
- Comment on Spider cats 1 month ago:
From another comment: aussie.zone/comment/7627328
Young spiders have sometimes been observed to grab the frogs, examine them with their mouthparts, and then release them unharmed.
- Comment on Sometimes when I say danke (thanks or thank you) some of my friends will say (and the spelling is wrong but it's as close as I can get) they will say danata or maybe it's dinata. 1 month ago:
Definitely Spanish “De Nada” basically “it’s nothing” and the absolute default response to “thank you” in most Spanish speaking countries.
- Comment on brilliant as silver 1 month ago:
Nah, it’s the vapor that’s dangerous with elemental mercury. Touching it is basically fine. Just no open wounds and be in a well ventilated area
There are far more toxic forms of mercury you shouldn’t mess with though

Of course it’s not devoid of the effects of sexual dimorphism. It’s just that how one’s sex determines societal roles and stereotypes (a closer definition of gender), shouldn’t be so rigid and unmovable.

You DON’T need a license for some types of flight though. Anything under 254 pounds. Ultralights and paragliders. (However that doesn’t mean there’s no rules)
