Well according to that measure the us dollar has lost purchasing power every single year since 1955. (excluding 2008)
- Comment on Terribly performing memecoin 14 hours ago:
Just because i hate people being misinformed about what’s true, the US dollar hasn’t lost value since 2013.

Try frozen fruit. Dude, so good. Frozen cherries, frozen pineapple, frozen mango, mmmmm
- Comment on Anon tries to lose weight 1 month ago:
I love frozen fruit and veg! If you’ve never tried it then don’t knock it
- Comment on I can whistle at the speed of sound 2 years ago:
Actually, c is the speed of light in a vacuum, but light travels slower through a medium, like air. So lasers shot through air will actually travel slower than c.
- Comment on Anon is an anthropologist 2 years ago:
That’s why i said advanced language. Lots of animals have language.
- Comment on Anon is an anthropologist 2 years ago:
The answer is probably language. Before advanced language was developed, there wasn’t a good way to pass along any knowledge that was gained by an individual.

- Comment on Awnings: a simple cooling tech we apparently forgot about 2 years ago:
View includes being able to see the sky. These permanently block some of the view of the sky.
- Comment on Awnings: a simple cooling tech we apparently forgot about 2 years ago:
If the argument is that awnings are too unattractive for people to use them, then hot damn is that so much worse. Solid metal gates - for when you want your house to look like a convenience store in a bag neighborhood when riots are about to start.
- Comment on Awnings: a simple cooling tech we apparently forgot about 2 years ago:
While that may be true, it doesn’t make people want them any more than they currently do. People want to have their full window view available whenever they want it. This means it needs to be retractable and extendable at the push of a button. And once you have that, it’s easy and helpful for it to also be automated
- Comment on Awnings: a simple cooling tech we apparently forgot about 2 years ago:
Make them better looking and push-button retractable from inside, and people will want them.

Haha i have some very funny news to tell you! The lyric is actually “tenth avenue FREEZE OUT”

- Comment on Anon questions the magic box 2 years ago:
Ok, but here’s a real answer. Have you ever sprayed a can of hair spray or wd-40 and the can got cold? That’s basically the same process.

I want that
- Comment on I don't have AC but my apartment lease covers unlimited water usage and the water is very cold. How can I best use this to cool my home? 2 years ago:
Is there a reason why you can’t get an air conditioner? There’s tons of valid reasons why it wouldn’t be an option, I’m just wondering what your situation is. Because nothing is ever gonna work anywhere close to as good as an air conditioner. If you can afford even the smallest air conditioner then it’ll beat every single diy solution in most situations

This is clearly recent.

Someone bought Redbox (the company) in 2022?! Why?!
- Comment on Redbox's owner files for bankruptcy after repeatedly missing payments and payroll: The company hasn’t paid employees in over a week and owes money to almost everyone in Hollywood ($970M in debt) 2 years ago:
I’d guess the answer is yes, but not nearly enough

Imagine after an invasion of England someone said to him “you should rethink your goal of trying to reclaim London”

I think it’s great that this has been captioned so deaf people can appreciate it too
- Comment on Redbox missed a multimillion-dollar payment it couldn’t afford to miss 2 years ago:
Y’all are knocking redbox, and you’re increasingly right for most places, but for many rural areas their internet is still very slow and/or data capped that makes video impossible

10 years? Hahahahahaha, sure
- Comment on How does SecureErase work? 2 years ago:
There’s a map that shows where every file on your disk is. Doing a regular trash just erases the map pointer for that file, but the 1s and 0s that the file is made of are still sitting there on your disk. Secure erase writes 0s into that area on the disk, so even if you knew where that file used to be located on the disk, now you’ll just find 0s there, instead of finding the 1s and 0s of the old file.

If you just add "hi’ to the beginning then it’s a perfect middle. “Hello, who is this?”
