- Comment on Japan cancels cherry blossom festival over complaints of tourists littering and ‘defecating’ in yards 2 weeks ago:
Talked to a friend that lives in Japan and he was confused about the defecating thing but definitely corroborated the dislike for Chinese tourist groups.
- Comment on Japan cancels cherry blossom festival over complaints of tourists littering and ‘defecating’ in yards 2 weeks ago:
Tourists who can afford to fly on an airplane and therefore presumably understand how a toilet works are actually defecating in yards? I admit I didn’t read the article but it doesn’t pass my smell test.
- Comment on Bit hot recently? 4 weeks ago:
That’s not true! The US is the hottest country right now!

- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 month ago:
So I’m simpler terms I think what you’re saying is the bottle shrinks (surface area decreases). When it does, the volume decreases too and it’s a 5:1 ratio. Correct?
I did click on the link someone posted here and the article made sense to me. Number one was structural. Which is what I would think. Number two mentioned this winter summer think but not during manufacturing ( which makes sense to me), but during shipping which still doesn’t make sense to me. What milk or even orange juice is NOT refrigerated?
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 month ago:
I’m sorry, I’m just not buying this explanation. I’d need more evidence.
What surface area? It’s volume we’re talking about. You mean if the plastic gets thicker, thereby reducing the interior surface area there is a corresponding decrease in volume? And it’s 5 to 1 ratio? So if the plastic is thicker by 20% there is no room for milk?
Winter bottles, summer bottles? Like the temperatures aren’t controlled because it costs money? They just compensate with a plug, what every season? Like it costs money to control the temperature of a process but it doesn’t cost money wasting plastic.
Hey, I’m not an expert on this subject and I could be wrong but from my perspective you’re just some guy on the Internet that sounds like he knows what he’s talking about.
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 month ago:
I agree with you.

But the yachts. How would you get yachts with a mere $1M - $5M? And jets?
- Comment on What activity or pastime of yours is barrels of fun? 1 month ago:
Ultimate frisbee is more like frisbee football and is played with a Frisbee. I used to do that too. A little too intense for me now. Getting older. Plus when I moved the ultimate frisbee crowd here sucks. Real jerks.
Disk golf is literally like Frisbee golf. It is played with discs. They are a little smaller and quite a bit more not sure how to say it “aggressive”. The “holes” are metal baskets with chains that hang from a halo over the top. The chains sort of grab the disc if you hit them right and the disc falls into the basket. Or in my case the chains act like a wall and spit the disc out. It’s mostly walking from an exercise perspective and yeah quite a bit more laid back. Technically challenging though. Really love it.

Does disc golf count?
- Comment on The ID_10_ts 2 months ago:
I was wondering that too.
- Comment on Do you ever watch old classic TV shows and realize that they are all dead 2 months ago:
Ha! I watched Leave it to Beaver and the guy who played Beaver and the guy who played his brother Wally are still alive and still best of friends!! Never mind just looked it up and Wally passed away a couple of years ago. Damn.

- Comment on Is there a mechanism in the USA to undo presidential pardons years later if political corruption has been proven as motivation to give these pardons? 2 months ago:
I don’t have the numbers but I’m guessing it’s been used for harm more than good.
- Comment on Santa is working on those lists 2 months ago:
Ok, so just sort of spontaneously then.
- Comment on Santa is working on those lists 2 months ago:
Of course. How silly of me.
- Comment on Is there a mechanism in the USA to undo presidential pardons years later if political corruption has been proven as motivation to give these pardons? 2 months ago:
I don’t know, but I would be fine if the presidential pardon was abolished. Perhaps replace it with only a stay of execution.
- Comment on Santa is working on those lists 2 months ago:
Ok sorry to ask what I guess is obvious. I haven’t been on in as couple of days and now everyone is talking about corn. Could someone please have mercy on me and explain it? Really sorry but I don’t know how to get to the origin of these things. I just see little hints in post after post.
- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 2 months ago:
Yeah, actually they might. I do use bookmarks too, but for more permanent things, like recipes and car sites (I’m a car guy). For projects I’m working on and will move along when I’m finished I didn’t want them polluting my bookmarks. I guess I could delete the bookmarks too. Look I never said it made any sense. Ugh.
- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 2 months ago:
I’m a tab-o-holic. I probably have ADD. I don’t know but I’ll start researching something and if I don’t finish that research before moving on to something else or if the need for the research is postponed, I don’t want to lose what I was doing.
Also there are sites I go to everyday, email, calendar, YouTube, so I just leave them up all of the time.
Somebody help me!!

Look carefully at that picture. Isn’t one guy eating the hand of the other guy?
- Comment on Deep throat 3 months ago:
So I definitely missed something here but from the memes I’m gathering there was something in the Epstein emails that implies that TACO gave Clinton a BJ. Do I understand that correctly?
- Comment on gabe³ half-life 3 confirmed 3 months ago:
I see. Thanks for the reply. You sound a lot like me actually. But one of the many things I like to build is computers and when I heard that the CPU was soldered on, I thought, well that just gets thrown in the trash as soon as it’s outdated. And it seemed like it wasn’t as good as a different computer running the same stuff, but I hadn’t heard anything about it until now and that’s ALL I’m hearing, so I figured I must have missed something.

Can anyone tell me why anyone would want to buy a Steam Machine? Serious question.
- Comment on Popular Tech Youtuber Enderman looses his YouTube channel after AI error 3 months ago:
Yeah, I was wondering if there was enough content on Nebula to make it worthwhile to pay. A lot of my favorite channels do this and it’s getting old. I understand this is how they make money, but that doesn’t mean I’m obligated to watch it. I can just move along.
