Fun fact: if a woman eats only hamburgers through her entire pregnancy, then she will have created a human being out of hamburgers.

I find that hard to believe. There are several US websites that have blocked the EU entirely because they don’t want to spend resources on following EU regulations. If what you say is true it would be more beneficial for them to just not do anything. Getting fewer EU visitors is better than getting none at all.
- Comment on Exposing the billion dollar secret most VPN companies don't want you to know 4 weeks ago:
To do business in the EU, surely they still must follow EU regulations even if they’re seated in another country. Just like with the cookie warnings that the entire world has had to adapt to.

Aren’t VPN:s subject to exactly the same laws as ISP:s? My ISP only records precisely as much as the law requires and throws it away as soon as permitted.
- Comment on Exposing the billion dollar secret most VPN companies don't want you to know 4 weeks ago:
I don’t understand the purpose of these services. I don’t use VPN to access someone else’s network. I use it to access my own. They’re doing the exact opposite of what you’d want.

- Comment on investment 2 months ago:
I gamble very rarely and am fully aware of its expectation value. But when I do gamble I still enjoy it, in the same way I might enjoy an amusement ride. Sure I part with some of my money but it’s just the fee for some thrill and entertainment.
If you start thinking of it as a way to earn rather than waste your money, you’re lost.

It kinda makes sense at the back of the car, less so at the front
- Comment on What are signs that the game devs aren't gamers themselves? 2 months ago:
Long cutscenes that don’t let you save or pause when anything comes up that forces you to leave the keyboard or just focus elsewhere.
“Control” was the worst wrt this. I was just about to go to bed when it showed me a “cutscene” that went on for more than 30 minutes. Turned out later that you could actually go back to watch it again afterwards, but there was no indication of that at the time.

Is this why I wake up at 3.30 with anxiety over something embarrassing I did when I was 15?

Until your toddler presses it and the OS just tosses all the work that you didn’t save yet. It’s good with a safeguard, and Windows will eventually force shut down after a timeout.

You don’t need to understand that. You only need to understand that it is a desirable outcome for people who say they want another baby, not why.

That requires friction between fingers and bag to be higher than friction between the two sides of the plastic bag, and for me it never is

The difference is that this hole contains a lot more E. Coli and my nose has evolved to be extremely sensitive to the smell of it because of the biohazard
- Comment on What grass starvation does to the perma-online 3 months ago:
I’m confused. Who is supposed to enjoy it, the licker or the lickee? It just seems like a nasty experience for everyone involved, especially with the enema I would require to get near the poop hole with my tongue.

The plastic bag is folded on the sides. I have much more success if I start by pulling there, than attacking the opening directly. Hard to explain but you’ll figure it out.
