- Comment on Do you actually care about your friend's new baby, vacation abroad or similar life events or are you just being nice? 4 weeks ago:
If a friend goes on an international trip and takes five hundred photos, I’d look at them all.
I have no friends with babies. Hypothetically I wouldn’t care about seeing the baby except for making the parent feel better. I care about kids but not until they’re old enough to be interesting, and babies aren’t.

- Comment on What's up with all the "___punk" stuff? 4 months ago:
Punk as a suffix was first made mainstream by cyberpunk, implying a high tech setting with low life, punk anti authority DIY characters. The next big use was steampunk, which was (as far as I know) purely an aesthetic for cosplay / costuming. Now it’s a general term for aesthetic, such as desert punk, atom punk, or solar punk, where the punk part completely lost its original meaning.

True, but smaller arms go further so scenes line the early betrayal in Italian Job were life threatening.
All supersonic bullets (up to .50-caliber) disintegrated in less than 3 feet (90 cm) of water, but slower velocity bullets, like pistol rounds, need up to 8 feet (2.4 m) of water to slow to non-lethal speeds. Shotgun slugs require even more depth (the exact depth couldn’t be determined because their one test broke the rig). However, as most water-bound shots are fired from an angle, less actual depth is needed to create the necessary separation.

- Comment on Anon lives with their parents 6 months ago:
As a note, my company, a fortune 50 company, does not adjust for cost of living. They adjust to cost of labor.
So if they were to magically hire overseas (not a thing they do), they would pay people from Spain average Spanish wages for the industry.
