And you cannot deny the truth of that statement. I know that quote differently, btw: “Two can keep a secret, if one of them us dead.”, and I think that was from “Yes, Minister!” 😃
- Comment on Is it creepy when lemmings go digging through post votes to see who voted how on different posts and comments? 14 hours ago:
Well, that would be a job for a script checking for such occasions, and react to summaries. Not a reason to poke a personal nose into this.
- Comment on Simply Bananas 14 hours ago:
That is one of the other verifications, indeed.

Yes, those people are creepy.

Now imagine how CGI was when they flew to the moon in 1969!
The best argument against the moon landings being fake is the sheer amount of people involved in the Apollo project. Estimates go up to 400’000 people (with different levels of involvement). If it had all been fake, someone would have blabbed by now.
- Comment on tbh as a Canadian, I deplore the current US federal administration and basically the entire GOP, but I still admire the US Constitution and those who fight for it 1 day ago:
The big problem in the US is now that if you fight for the constitution, you automatically fight against the government.

It is a question of major tributaries. Depending how one defines “major”, about any number is possible. You can probably claim the Mississippi has one major tributary: the Missouri. Or you can claim it has hundreds, of your “major” definition is “mapped running water”.
- Comment on My 1TB hard drive took a crap reformatted it, lost all my info, and it works now. How do I use a cloud or drive online to backup my stuff so I am not relying just on physical and can dl anywhere? 1 day ago:
Whatever you backup online, encrypt it.
- Comment on Why don't smaller countries get together with other smaller countries and form a "bloc" that could go in the game of the big "Superpowers"? Instead of the US, RUS, and China all the time? 1 day ago:
Ever heard about the EU?

I’ve seen this. In Wreck-It Ralph.

Interesting interpretation of this photo…

The point is that ounces are not scientific. They are only used by excplicitely non-scientific countries and people.
- Comment on This Avocado Oil that claims to be “0 Calories” 🙄 5 days ago:
If the amount of [something] per serving size is below 0.5g, they can legally claim that the food is [something]-free.
At least with fat, protein, or sugar. Although the food industry would probably lobby for this to apply to lead or cadmium, too. Or any other chemical used in UHP foods.
- Comment on Chef 5 days ago:
I’d be careful especially with the eggs. The supermarket eggs here are about 60g, but can go down to 50g. The farmshop eggs here are 70 to 80g, but occasionally even bigger. 90+g double yolk eggs are my favourite, but they would complicate any baking recipe.

I don’t use spray, but those that use it normally do four or five sprays. Or sometimes even more.
- Comment on Chef 6 days ago:
“Fluid ounces” are not exactly scientific measurements. Milliliters are.
- Comment on Chef 6 days ago:
Baking - scientific? With so scientific measurements like “cups” or “spoons”?
- Comment on This Avocado Oil that claims to be “0 Calories” 🙄 6 days ago:
Like Europe uses?
- Comment on This Avocado Oil that claims to be “0 Calories” 🙄 6 days ago:
And legally, they are right. One serving is very, very small, and therefore, one serving is considered to have no [whatever].
Just like TicTacs. They are 100% sugar to a rounding error, but as the “serving size” is one TicTac, which weighs less than half a gram, it is legally considered “sugar free”.
Which tells a lot about the real value of “legally”.
- Comment on AI applied to hardening systems might cause US intelligence agencies to lose a large portion of their surveillance capabilities. 1 week ago:
Well, anyone doing stupid things like that deserves a complete system failure and data loss. No mercy for such ineptitude.
- Comment on AI applied to hardening systems might cause US intelligence agencies to lose a large portion of their surveillance capabilities. 1 week ago:
I see absolute no problems in this. If they lose backdoors, others will, too. Making systems more secure is a very good thing. Uncontrolled secret services of all kinds of countries as well as criminals and hacker losing chances to break into systems is an absolute win for everyone else.
- Comment on The System does not work. 1 week ago:
Exactly.
- Comment on The System does not work. 1 week ago:
The system does work. Perfectly. For those who installed it. Which are the top 5%.
- Comment on Why does China have so many multi billionaires if they are aiming to be a communist country? 1 week ago:
Imagine living in Lebanon and not being a millionaire…
Even normal people there live in houses worth billions of Lebanese Pounds.
- Comment on Take-Two CEO Says We'll All Be Streaming Our Games In 3 Years 1 week ago:
I’m long past gaming. I’m down to Solitaire and Mahjong, and occasionally watching a let’s play on YT…
- Comment on Take-Two CEO Says We'll All Be Streaming Our Games In 3 Years 1 week ago:
If people who lack a gaming machine have a big internet connection instead is rather questionable.
- Comment on Take-Two CEO Says We'll All Be Streaming Our Games In 3 Years 2 weeks ago:
If he only offers streaming, he’ll just leave a gap for indies who actually deliver.
- Comment on Fact Check 2 weeks ago:
Of course it is false. It was said by a Republican politician.
- Comment on The way Walmart delivered my son’s new backpack 2 weeks ago:
It could be worse. I’ve seen someone buying a big LEGO set for several hundred dollars, and they just slapped an address sticker on the box and sent it off. Not only that the sticker ruined the box, but the postal disservice ruined it even further.
