- Comment on what the fuck is that allowed??? 17 hours ago:
In my country, we would call the military…
(They have people to collect wild animals.)
- Comment on A cow is more likely to kill you than a shark 2 days ago:
Yes, exactly. From your link:
1975 Banqian Dam failure: 26,000 dead from flooding, 145,000 dead from subsequent famine and epidemics, 11 million homeless.
That accounts for 122% of the number on the meme.
- Comment on Correlation == Causation? 2 days ago:
Oh, not every. But the correlation is really high for some reason.
- Comment on A cow is more likely to kill you than a shark 2 days ago:
Citations aren’t support.
- Comment on A cow is more likely to kill you than a shark 2 days ago:
Most of the renewables count is one dam that failed in China too.
- Comment on 4 days ago:
If you put your finger on the primary, the current will increase by an order of magnitude or so.
- Comment on Literally 4 days ago:
I don’t know who appointed him. It would make sense for it not be Trump.
- Comment on Literally 4 days ago:
The Trump’s guy that recommended the vaccines was interrogated by some politicians recently.
AFAIK, nothing of any substance entered or left that interrogation. But I think the post is about it.
- Comment on My phone just stays forever on silent with most emergency sounds off 5 days ago:
It could be a mobile. But it only makes calls and it costs 10 cents a minute to the caller.
- Comment on In Star Wars, what would it mean "to bring balance to The Force?" 5 days ago:
Yes. It’s a classical oracle prediction.
- Comment on In Star Wars, what would it mean "to bring balance to The Force?" 5 days ago:
Anakin killed every single member of both sides of that dualism, and then died on the process.
- Comment on Which path would the electrical current take? 5 days ago:
If the book is trying to explain an Wien bridge, the OP will need to actually put numbers there. Just looking at the sizes won’t be enough.
- Comment on Which path would the electrical current take? 5 days ago:
On a real circuit where every component is different from each other, yes there will be current there.
On that ideal circuit, try specifying the characteristics of those components and writing down how much current goes through each segment. That will let you understand what is happening.

Prophecy implies the Antichrist would be polling much better.
I dunno. People say they hate him, but also that they would vote in him again and do the stuff he asks them to do (buy his phones and etc).

Since you mentioned the substance… That sounds an awful lot like caffeine addiction.
- Comment on Are datacenters in space more lucrative than on earth? 6 days ago:
If you find somebody willing to pay some 1000 times more for a computer because it’s rotating around the sky, then yes, it’s profitable. Those “1000” are probably an understatement, but there exists some number that works.
There’s probably a single-digit-billions market there.
For comparison, SpaceX’s space business is a 2-digits-billions business, and they claim they have a 2-digits-trillion market to grow into.
- Comment on Are datacenters in space more lucrative than on earth? 6 days ago:
In space, it’s unreachable.
To normal people, yes. But it’s perfectly reachable for any small country military. And the orbits people are talking about can be easily intercepted from any place outside of the poles.
- Comment on No worries, companies of 3d printers will find out how to scam their customers soon too 1 week ago:
Looks like you find the company doing that to 3D printers.
- Comment on No worries, companies of 3d printers will find out how to scam their customers soon too 1 week ago:
Not really.
Almost nothing in a paper printer is just a plastic part with 0.1mm accuracy.
- Comment on No worries, companies of 3d printers will find out how to scam their customers soon too 1 week ago:
I literally have a dissembled 3D printer in my desk right now that got the hotend entirely covered in some unknown carbonized substance… Probably from the filament.
Yet, that’s actually an easy fix and will cost a little bit because I’m choosing to replace that stuff.
At the same time, I have a paper printer around that I dissembled 3 weeks ago that is just waiting to be thrown away, because some parts made to break broke, and they cost as much as a new printer.
- Comment on modern classic 1 week ago:
That table is going to demand so many legs in sacrifice…
- Comment on New clean energy comes out. *look inside* It’s just boiling water again… 1 week ago:
Most new clean energy does not use boiling water.
- Comment on Did Machine Translations peak? 1 week ago:
LLMs are literally the evolution of the machine translators you are talking about.
- Comment on He wasn't prepared for the pop quiz. 1 week ago:
Here is conjectured to lie…
- Comment on Is this sufficiently advanced technology? 1 week ago:
It would be better with a charge-carrier diffusion diagram, but your computer is also full of very strong magnetic fluxes, changing all the time and interacting with each other.
- Comment on Shoutout To My Boy 1 week ago:
Yeah, I wonder if it’s him in that and the “corrosive” warnings.
- Comment on take their money and arrest those responsible 1 week ago:
Fucking adopt renewables already and reserve the criminal calling for the people actively sabotaging the change.
Yeah, many of those people work for some of those companies, but their work is not producing barrels of oil.
- Comment on Got er 1 week ago:
That water-mark placement…
- Comment on Should've just picked a better password 1 week ago:
It’s somewhat common to limit password lengths to avoid DoS attacks that exploit a slow key generation function.
But that limitation should on some hundreds or a few thousands characters. Sites that use limits like “16” are probably storing them as plain text.
- Comment on If your in jail and you have a heart condition, and they taser you and you die are they responsible? Even if they know you have a heart condition? 1 week ago:
The answer to questions about law always depend on what country you are talking about.
