- Comment on How does Google make money from Gmail, the google calendar, drive or other services when used with third party front ends? 21 hours ago:
Many people pay for additional storage on Google.
Plus tying your online identity to Google means you’re more likely to use their other services.

- Comment on how tf do you warm up plates? 2 days ago:
Diners put food on a special counter called a “pass” that has heat lamps above it. This keeps the food warm, and the plates warm. Keeps the counter warm, too. A lot of them store plates above the pass, an area that’s also pretty warm all the time.

- Comment on Why aren't there mass protests in the USA? 1 week ago:
And that 63.7% is of eligible voters. The disenfranchised, teenagers, and noncitizens aren’t counted.
- Comment on What happened to FlyingSquid? 1 week ago:
Who said “Democrat”?
You’re not wrong, though.
- Comment on What happened to FlyingSquid? 1 week ago:
It turns out the far left also thinks “liberal” is an insult.
- Comment on Why are autistic people so odd?? 1 week ago:
Because they have been traumatized, usually, and people with trauma behave erratically.
- Comment on Was the supreme court wrong to assess that because america is a capitalist society money is a form of speach? 1 week ago:
It stems back to an earlier problem, which is corporate personhood in general and limited liability in particular.
Donations to political candidates must be public, but donations to organizations need not be. But with the fig leaf of corporate personhood, organizations who take in anonymous donations can act as entities to themselves and donate to political candidates. It’s the same reason a company can go broke and owe their vendors and employees millions while the executives enrich themselves. It all comes back to corporate personhood.

Because they don’t want to pay the social costs of being seen as rude.
- Comment on Could authoritarians rule with capitalizing on fear, hate, and ignorance? 2 weeks ago:
I’m sure they could pare it down to just ignorance if they were willing to put in the work.
But if they were willing to put in the work, they probably wouldn’t be authoritarians in the first place.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
bad deontology
The comeback is easy: Intent doesn’t matter, actions do.
- Comment on How come in most school in the USA (at least mine) they teach Spain Spanish instead of Mexico Spanish? Would not Mexico Spanish be an obvious choice to teach? 2 weeks ago:
Mine taught Mexico Spanish, but with a brief reminder every once in a while about the vosotros conjugations.

I’ve only heard “clowder”, “conference”, and “pack”.
- Comment on What does a week of groceries look like to you? 2 weeks ago:
fresh bread, avocados, fresh tomatoes, fresh meat
It’s not that they go bad after just two days, but a week is too long
- Comment on What does a week of groceries look like to you? 2 weeks ago:
I eat a lot of fresh food that doesn’t last a week; I shop every other day. I also eat a lot of things that last forever and are cheapest in bulk, like beans, rice, pasta. As a result, I honestly don’t know what a week of groceries looks like.
- Comment on Is it a pattern for right-wing people to attack films, series and animations with protagonists from minority groups? Or is this an exaggeration? 2 weeks ago:
I’d say it’s strongly correlated for those who attack minority representation to be right-wing, but the converse correlation is not as strong.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
It means the impetus that drives you to improve yourself or even maintain yourself comes from other people, rather than self-regulation.
In your case, social status, specifically social approval from women you find attractive.
There’s nothing wrong with that. Sounds like you just need to maintain contact with those types of people to stay motivated. Shouldn’t be too hard to arrange.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
Sounds like you’re externally motivated.
- Comment on If any external factor made you create art, would your art be created by that factor? 3 weeks ago:
Is this a backdoor to legitimizing AI art?
In any case, no, the creative agent is the one responsible for the art.

STEM-cel
like incel, but for technogarchs
or “technogarch”, I guess
- Comment on Is it possible to design a (pen and paper) cipher that is secure against government cryptanalysis for at least 10 years? 3 weeks ago:
That’s why you make a stack of them. Generate hundreds up-front and you don’t need to generate new every time.
- Comment on Why does it seem like many Americans have an arrogant personality trait? 3 weeks ago:
It seems that way because we are, on the whole, actually arrogant.
