Wherever this guy comes from, he had to wait a bit longer for the train.
- Comment on thank goodness 1 day ago:
Now they do have their own weird units of measurement, and then they don’t know how to use them…
- Comment on Wear your seatbelt 1 day ago:
No maimings or killings, but a lesson well learned.
- Comment on Wear your seatbelt 1 day ago:
I once did a hard break when a passenger decides to unbuckle (without need) before we arrived at the destination.
- Comment on When you say you don't like linux on Lemmy 3 days ago:
More likely the reason, indeed.
- Comment on When you say you don't like linux on Lemmy 3 days ago:
More like “free of thinking”.
- Comment on Is it? 3 days ago:
Like the Muslim in America who had learned to love this “bacon” stuff on the burger, and decades later learned what bacon is from…
- Comment on Why doesn't Hamas or Israel just meet at a predetrmined place and time and just have out or kill the crap out of each other? Instead of involving civs who don't have anything to do with war? 4 days ago:
For Israel, all non-Jewish people in the region are “Hamas”.
- Comment on Xbox: "Price Increases Are Never Fun For Anybody" 6 days ago:
While they might or might not have reasons to raise prices, those people who cancelled their subscriptions definitively had their reason.
- Comment on I can't find a single decent bedtime story online. 90% of the articles are AI slop. 6 days ago:
Have you tried buying a book and reading it yourself to the kids?
- Comment on Why can't we have a static vintage web? 6 days ago:
Fine with that. My favourite blog was like that.
- Comment on Are Street Racers "bad people"? 6 days ago:
They are about the worst you can get in a car. For me, they are right next to those terrorist who drive into groups of people in order to kill them: they have no respect for other peoples lives.

Red hot chilli peppers?
- Comment on Is anyone NOT steaming their Music? 1 week ago:
No, I am frying my music. It gives the sound a crispier edge.
- Comment on New EA Owners Hoping AI Will Cut Costs And Boost Profits, It's Claimed 1 week ago:
I really liked EA. Back on the C6C4 and the Amiga.
- Comment on New EA Owners Hoping AI Will Cut Costs And Boost Profits, It's Claimed 1 week ago:
EA is not yet bad enough? They are actually trying to make it even worse?
Or is behind all this some rich, disappointed gamer who wants to ruin EA with a vengeance?
- Comment on Here's a fun game. 1 week ago:
There is “Dick”, “Dick”, and “Dick”.
The one with the clown in Derry, the one with the giant sandworms, and the one with the great white shark.
- Comment on OK what is your Roman name? 1 week ago:
Call me Malusius.
- Comment on Before modern-day authoritarian regimes, did people living under abosolute monarchies talk criticize the monarchs? Or did they just stay silent in fear of persecution? 1 week ago:
Yes, but due to the lack of wide-ranging communication, the vast majority was left outside of the hearing range of those who would have put it in history books. And quite a few that made it into the book were probably of the form “My brothers and I heard John saying that the King is evil and must be killed!” - “Thank you for reporting, take Johns farm as a sign of gratitude!”…
- Comment on facebook ai 2 weeks ago:
Yep. The true power of AI. Gobble data without getting a brain involved.
- Comment on Before modern-day authoritarian regimes, did people living under abosolute monarchies talk criticize the monarchs? Or did they just stay silent in fear of persecution? 2 weeks ago:
They probably did, but who might have heard of it? In a time when writing talking and private letters were the most common forms of communication, things hardly got public.
And printing dissent in the newspapers would quickly lead into serious trouble.
- Comment on Microsoft doing shady Microsoft stuff again 2 weeks ago:
You mean the error of the Firefox app was to set the browser default anywhere but Edge?
- Comment on How do I keep a 9 year old from constantly licking erasers and putting them in his mouth 2 weeks ago:
Well, there is stuff you paint on kids nails to prevent them from biting them, which basically tastes bitter. Maybe apply this to the eraser?
- Comment on Jeebuz Rode A Velocirapture 2 weeks ago:
Well, about as many believed it was a good idea to vote for Trump, so it’s not surprising. Or just look how many believe Fox “News” is a reputable source of information…
- Comment on Microsoft doing shady Microsoft stuff again 2 weeks ago:
“An app caused a problem”. Let me guess, that app was called “Edge”, and it was just pissed to be ignored.
- Comment on Can you think of any now? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, the concept is nice, but it tells me that the Big Bang doesn’t explain what happened before it (the leading hypothesis is that the Big Bang started time, so there is no “before”)
Which is entirely correct. Time as we know it is an “inside” parameter of our universe, and therefor any causality only exists inside our universe, too. Because causality always contains a temporal element as in “Event A happened, which caused Event B later”. We cannot make any assumption of “before the big bang” and therefor no assumption of “what caused the big bang” either.
At least not in any way we could relate to.
the common myth about Daddy Longlegs being highly venomous
Quite a childrens tale, even back then. Two reasons for it: First, the “Daddy Longlegs” has no ability to bite us. Even extreme thin parts of the skin, e.g. the lips, are still way to thick for it to penetrate with its teeth. Second, even if it could inject its venom (which really exists!) it would need to inject about half a cup of it into a grown adult (IIRC about the amount, it could be a quarter cup or a whole cup or something, but still in the range of “thousands of total spider weights”).

Autism diagnosis rates. Quite a difference.
- Comment on Dinner is ready! 2 weeks ago:
Horrible split, going right through my country, my state, and my administrative region.
For that, I would have to think if food from the other side of the river is considered illegal…
- Comment on I baked eye ball cookies for Halloween 2 weeks ago:
They could have been from someone doing a test batch, and learning a lot from it, among others to have at least another test run after the change…
- Comment on Pretty good idea. Color codes easy to understand 2 weeks ago:
That’s what marking rings are for. You just pull a ring of a chosen color over the keys handle. Additional bonus: Those rings come with distinguishable surface patterns, yo you can feel which key it is in the dark.
