Backup cameras are cool but they’ll never stay backup cameras. Give manufacturers that screen, and we’ll, if you have it, you’ve gotta use it

But if we are having fun with this, rhubarb: definitely no fruit, far too sweet to fit nicely into vegetable.
Oh boy, another reason to hate rhubarb.
Also, you want a sweet vegetable? Sugar beet.

Quarter pints are wider than tall, but tiny, wide-mouth half pints are similar proportions but bigger; the pictured jar looks like a fancy wide-mouth half pint

If it has or recently (evolutionarily speaking) had wings, it’s a pterosaur; there are several that look close enough to pterodactyls that they get lumped together in media. ‘pterosaur’ is literally ‘winged lizard’

Golden rice is an example of a GMO that’s actually beneficial to humanity, or would be; anti-GMO sentiment has kept it from being grown in any significant amounts.
It’s tweaked to produce vitamin A, which rice normally does not; deficiency is a common problem in places where the poor get most of their calories from rice

Pterodactyl is a pterosaur, not a dinosaur

Oh yes, it’s much easier to be stupid when you’re rich, because money insulated you from consequences that you might normally learn from

I don’t know that LLMs are ingesting all that many word documents; they probably got the em dashes from published books

Maize didn’t evolve naturally, we created it. Teosinte on the other hand is generally eaten and shat back out before germinating

Neutron stars are made of neutrons in the same way that tapwater is made of water molecules: primarily, but not entirely

They’re just about always so tight it feels uncomfortable to cut those when youre dealing with fibres or just about anything
Use dikes, not a knife, and cut the head of the tie, not the strap
- Comment on Charlie Kirk in his own words. 4 weeks ago:
The person used the term “pussy” in a misogynistic manner.
Their comment is gone, so maybe they did, maybe they didn’t, I can’t see it, but simply calling someone a pussy as an insult is not misogynistic, because the insult has nothing to do with women.
And no where in history did the term originate as “scaredy-cat”. It simply meant cat.
Fair that I shouldn’t have used the word ‘literally’ there; as an insult it means coward, prior to which it meant (small) cat, thus carrying the same meaning as ‘scardey-cat’; it is an insult against someone’s courage by analogy to a cat’s skittishness
- Comment on Charlie Kirk in his own words. 4 weeks ago:
Nope, the insult is non-gendered and predates the use of the word as crude anatomical slang; it literally means ‘scaredy-cat’

Judaism is an ethnoreligion, making it both a faith/religion and a race/ethnicity; otherwise there would be no such thing as a Jewish atheist

Thin metal arcs in a microwave; I’ve seen a fork arc from the tines, never seen any other cutlery do it. The arcing is the air turning to plasma, so if it was buried in food with no access to air, it wouldn’t arc

Almost all herbivores are opportunistic carnivores; deer eat birds. Presumably some great swimmers thought the krill (or some other sea life) represented a great opportunity

Yep, how far the mold penetrates depends on the hardness of the cheese. Block of cheddar hard enough to play headbrick? Generally fine to just cut off a the outer layer. Anything soft, a good pizza mozzarella maybe? Garbage the whole block
