- Comment on What Phone do you guys use? 3 days ago:
My financial situation means that if that phone fails to work or breaks rapidly, the loss of that $200 is extremely consequential. Odds are lower that an unused phone will break within the 5 years i need them to last

- Comment on What Phone do you guys use? 4 days ago:
Well google just renabled automatic app updates and it broke a bunch of my apps because I get the pre adware/spyware/buyout version of apps. So ive been in the market the last week for a graphene phone. Seems pretty likely ill get a stock android phone thats supported by grapheneOS and flash it myself, im uncomfortable with buying a pre used $200 phone.

You do? That doesnt really seem like a very good reason to make fun of him.

Yeah, i assumed this was the default for pc as well. Admittedly, i dont know much about steam achievements though as my frist playthrough of a game is normally obtained… elsewhere 🏴☠️
- Comment on What's the weirdest argument you've gotten into with someone? 4 days ago:
You have to understand that most humans are really fucking stupid, or at least illogical. Take every interaction with a grain of salt, because the person you are arguing with at the end of the day is a barely functional slab of meat that nature trained to think, as a joke.
- Comment on What's the weirdest argument you've gotten into with someone? 4 days ago:
I like to just respond with “Oh… ok.” And then stare at them for a massively uncomfortable amount of time. Really let them marinate in it. Even if they dont realise theyre being stupid, it makes them feel very awkward and hopefully pavlovs them into saying less dumb shit around me.

- Comment on Has the scientific community ever reconciled with the fact global warming is going to happen and there is no stopping it? 5 days ago:
Yeah, if they were in one place. Not 5000 remaining survivors scattered all sround the world. Also, keep in mind that this would be an ongoing catastrophe, not something the world will just bounce back from once the humans are gone.
- Comment on What happens to flies when you let them fly out the window of a car at 75 mph? 5 days ago:
The acceleration over time(g force) is determined by the balance between the size and shape of the wing compared to the momentum of the flies body, as long as that proportion is extremely small it would fall below the material strength of the wings connective tissue. Seeing as their wings are extremely small and their momentum is extremely small, the only real variable here is the shape of their wings(technically im referring to its aerodynamic drag versus lift both with respect to the vector of motion, but were just gonna say shape{also when i say “wing” im referring to the area exposed to oncoming atmosphere, which would include the body}). As long as the shape isnt too big in comparison to the momentum, it should be fine.
Tl;dr/eli5: if it tucks its wings it will survive. At that speed if it untucks its wings they get ripped off and the fly becomes a walk.

Then it would take one more at that point. Solve enough problems and eventually people will realize they need to stop creating them. Or solve your neighbors. As long as someone is ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING against the biggest problem, the rest of them can wait until someone is ready to solve them. When the biggest issue is dealt with, then we can start solving the smaller ones.

America, where there is an actively sitting known pedophile president protecting a group of elite pedophiles
Well, we’re not trying that hard. Seriously, it takes one person to put an end to all this misery and yet we don’t. Until there’s real progress in the US, it’s safe to say that each and every American supports our presidents actions if nothing else through refusal to stop him.

- Comment on When people recommend Brave browser. 1 week ago:
I don’t know enough about browsers to really know anything about chromium. But I did see a statement from Google which I believe stated that they were removing support for adblockers from chromium based browsers. It was at that point that I decided I did want to continue having a usable browsing experience, and immediately swapped.

This is wildly pedantic, but ufologists must love aeronautics. I’m personally more interested in what’s in the ufo tbh.
- Comment on Can't click my app controls! 1 week ago:
Maybe it’s just shitty phones ¯_(ツ)_/¯ either way though, if your feature makes my phone unusable it’s def gonna trigger me. Obviously that’s very self centered, but I believe accessability should be for everyone. Far too often devs remove beloved features from their software and it breaks so many legacy features.

- Comment on "Can You Paint Yourself This Colour" Tier List 1 week ago:
I think it is in Germany. I follow a lot of naturism stuff, and it seems they hold yearly events there where everyone does body paint. It makes me really sad that we don’t have those types of communities in the US.

I am ok with making their children go hungry
But that not what you’re doing. They work for the company, company makes decisions. By choosing to work for that company you are standing by their decisions. When the company makes a bad decision, that’s on you. They are ok with their children starving because otherwise they wouldn’t be working for a company that pulls this bullshit.
And yeah, there’s always the chance that the company started good, and people didn’t realize what it had become until it became an issue. But when it becomes an issue, either deal with it, or leave. They’re top tier game developers, any team would be lucky to have them. If no other team will have them, they can start their own team. By choosing to stick with the company making shitty decisions you are making those shitty decisions. They made their bed, you aren’t the one sleeping in it.
- Comment on A sudden epiphany. 1 week ago:
Well, growing up in Oklahoma has definitely caused me a God complex. Being able to read instantly makes me more intelligent than most people I’ve ever met, so it’s very difficult to not assume I’m more intelligent than everyone else. The weird part is that I’ve always felt kinda dumb, but looking at everyone else, they take it beyond dumb. Everyone else is just completely illogical, like they simply do not think at all.
So very relatable, if I met a room full of people on my level I genuinely don’t know how I’d handle that socially
