On the bright side, ill bet the smuggling business will be booming over the next few years!
- Comment on Choose a number, 1-5! 1 week ago:
1 or 3. I cant stand forks with curved outer tines. 2 is good but i prefer a straight handle over a curved one. My preferance leans towards 3 though as 1 looks like it would have slightly sharp stamped edges.

As if thats not bad enough, someone wrote an entire book that contains the exact date and manner of my death and put it in the library of babel.
- Comment on LinkedIn’s cofounder Reid Hoffman says seeking work-life balance is a red flag that you’re ‘not committed to winning’ 4 weeks ago:
Thats exactly the kind of thing I would expect the founder of LinkedIn to say. Bet there’s a bunch of absolute lunatics ready to repost that to their own linked in page.

- Comment on Least extreme biophysics phd 1 month ago:
I’m not arguing that ethics boards cant be overly stringent. But there’s a reason we have them in the first place and that still doesn’t make it alright to start conducting unauthorised experiments on people.
Even if it turned out OK in this case, and we still can’t say that it definitely did, the next person who trys to pull a stunt like this might not be so lucky, qualified, or knowledgable.
What’s the alternative here?

“Speed limits are holding me back from getting from a to B in as little time as possible” yeah, and they reduce the likelihood of injuring/killing a people in the process.

- Comment on Please tell me I'm not going nuts 1 month ago:
I’m sorry dude but in the gentlest way possible, you’re relying on conspiracy theories to avoid confronting reality and justify your beliefs. It’s exactly the same as what q-anon and trump nutters do. I realise that its a coping mechanism to help you deal with the state of things but you can’t change anything for the better if you can’t engage with reality.
I know shit feels hopeless now but I promise there’s things you can do now that will genuinely improve life for yourself and the people you care about. Join communities, volunteer for causes you believe in, get involved in protests, and try and form those social bonds that help break people away from conservative and maga centric thinking. If you think about it, regardless of whether what you believe is true or not, these are still things that will improve life for people who are suffering now.

I have around 1500 in KSP but tbf, most of that is AFK where I’ve had to do long manouvre burns in the multiples of hours so I’ve just set it and walked away lol.
- Comment on Ads are a plague 2 months ago:
Agreed. Designing in a feature that presents users with something that’s deliberately designed to be as distracting and attention grabbing as possible during a time when they should have their undivided attention on driving is asking for trouble.
On that note, LED billboards run up along the side of roads should be illegal and at very least have dimmers to prevent them from blinding drivers at night.

I asked one of my mates who’s a historian and he said, yes. Viva la revolution
- Comment on How likely do you think there will be a run on the banks? 2 months ago:
Not sure really, but probably best to go an remove all your money now just in case! I bet hundreds of people are doing the same thing! /s
- Comment on Why are there silly license requirements? 2 months ago:
As with many types of license, they usually only get checked when you’re caught misbehaving.
If you’re caught not picking up your dogs poo, you’re asked “have you got a licence for that dog”. At which point, if you say no, then you get another charge or two slapped on as well. If you lie and say yes you can get yet another charge slapped on for lying to law enforcement.
Its basically another layer of incentive to follow the law and get a license or the penalties may be higher as a result.
- Comment on What do you think of anarchism? 2 months ago:
Genuinely thought that said “anachronism” and was ready to go on a tirade about how cool cloaks are and how they should make a comeback

- Comment on Not enough people buying Premium, eh? 4 months ago:
Companies don’t need to make infinite money. That’s just a weird incentive that modern corporations seem to be chasing and burning everything down around them to achieve.

Fucking moron. You’ll never hit a drone with that! The ruskies have been trying that for the last couple years with virtually zero success.

Again, there already is an easy way out. All that would change is the manner in which is happens and whether it happens professionally or not.

- Comment on Why people consistently vote against their own interests to benefit the rich? 5 months ago:
Because they’ve successfully been conned into thinking that what’s in the best interests of the rich is in their own best interests too.
