- Comment on If I got in a collision with a car from the 70s with a car today, would not the 70s car win out since it would primarily be metal? If so why don't people buy more 70's cars? 1 day ago:
It’s not the speed that kills you. It’s the rapid deceleration.
- Comment on Will an American remake of Squid Game be bad or better than the original? 6 days ago:
Even then, better is debatable. They are two very different types of comedy. I will admit the US office is a more palatable one you can binge watch. The UK office I need to take a break after an episode because I’ll reach dangerously high levels of cringe otherwise
- Comment on Will an American remake of Squid Game be bad or better than the original? 1 week ago:
Given the track record of forgein films remade by the US. I would say it has a very high probability if being terrible

Life can absolutely recover. People do joke about it but cockroaches are ridiculously resilient. And so are tardigrades.

Someday, they will discover the remains of dead archaeologists among remains of dinosaurs and will have to wonder if we lived at the same time

Earth have survived extinction events before. And it will survive them again.
- Comment on And no paper towels to use on the handle 1 week ago:
So your solution is to punish the cleaners by throwing TP on the floor?
Don’t be gross. Have some respect for the next person to use the bathroom.
- Comment on Anon wonders what went wrong 1 week ago:
It’s normally not a problem at all even if you literally never masturbate, due to erections that occur during sleep.
No. That’s not true. But it can shrink if you never get erections. But I wouldn’t exactly call getting an erection during sleep “using it”
- Comment on Anon wonders what went wrong 1 week ago:
Also worth noting that lack of regular erection can cause shrinkage. Since the tissue can lose part of its elasticity.
It’s normally not a problem at all even if you literally never masturbate, due to erections that occur during sleep.

Wrong order…
Star Gate, they find it and go through, Star Trek, the hike begins, Star Wars, they found new enemies that wanted to kill them.

Just FYI, you can vaccinate yourself against ticks these days.
Still don’t want them on me, but at least you don’t have to worry about borrelia
- Comment on You've Seen Too Many Trump Memes Today, Rest Here Weary Traveler 2 weeks ago:
They achieved a smile from me.
They’re not preaching anything. More of a comment that a lot of posts seem to be about Trump and his administration.

Reminds me of when a whole bunch of people went inside I think it was a best buy, all wearing a blue polo-shirt and beige chinos
- Comment on Sony is testing dynamic pricing: one game - different prices on the PlayStation Store 5 weeks ago:
The former part has been a thing for hundreds of years.
But yeah I suppose they would use it to change the price dynamically on a constant basis based on demand.
Though I’m not sure that’s even legal to this extent in EU. It’s a product for purchase. Not a stock. But you’re right. It does sound bad.
- Comment on Sony is testing dynamic pricing: one game - different prices on the PlayStation Store 5 weeks ago:
It’s nothing new. It’s been done for the past 20 years. Products are priced differently in different countries based on their economy.
You have been able to do this in Steam for decades now. You can/could use VPN along with changing your location in steam, to trick it into thinking you are in that region. You would then get that regions prices.
E.g, lots of Steam games used to be noticeably cheaper if Steam thought you were in Russia as opposed to Germany.

When I was younger… you could buy a cheese burger at McDonalds for 1 buck. It’s not even that long ago. Like 10 years ago

Don’t be silly, no one drives in manhattan, there’s too much traffic
- Comment on "Being vegan is unnatural" 1 month ago:
Something being Cashew based is not the flex you seem to think it is. All you’ve done is replace animal abuse with human abuse and modern slave labour. I don’t see how it would be any better from an ethical standpoint.
- Comment on Why is #FFFFFF white, but mixing red green and blue paint is black? 1 month ago:
There is a difference between colors you see from reflections, and from a direct source.
Your t-shirts is light hitting them, and reflecting back to your eye. Depending on what is reflected and what is absorbed, you will get a colour.
But that will not be the case from screens that emit their own light.
- Comment on Was there a way to see English speaking communities only? 1 month ago:
No. You managed to screw that one up too. I did wonder why there was an allergy warning for eggs, on the egg package at my grocery store. But I now understand there are those that need that clarification. God bless.
- Comment on Was there a way to see English speaking communities only? 1 month ago:
Guy pick posts from “all>hot”. Is then upset that he’s seeing all posts from all communities.
Did I understand that correctly?
- Comment on Given the obviously wide reaching implications of the Epstein files why arent other world governments demanding access or copies? 1 month ago:
The amount of people saying it’s because other world leaders and businessmen are implicit are idiots.
Not because that can’t be the case. But because it has nothing to do with how this works.
There is no legal basis anywhere for such a demand. Even if you can prove that one of the victims is from your country. That doesn’t give you the right to access their investigation. It doesn’t give you the right to conduct an investigation inside a forgein country.
You can make a request. They might say yes, they might say no. But that’s all you can do. Demands are different from requests. Demands have an implicit “or else” attached. It’s not something you throw around lightly.
one: because it makes you look weak, and two: you need to be able to back it up if they refuse. EU is not going to start another round of trade-war with the US over their child trafficking ring. It’s not our problem. It’s theirs.
- Comment on Life pro tip for friends of pharmacists 2 months ago:
As far as I’m concerned, “threatening” to use your own body in an attempt to raise antibiotic resistant bacteria, is self harm.
You don’t have to agree. That’s fine.
- Comment on Life pro tip for friends of pharmacists 2 months ago:
Yeah. So we agree that she’s threatening self harm (minimum) to solicit a response from someone. Emotional manipulation.
I’m glad we managed to argue our way to what we already concluded from the start.
- Comment on Life pro tip for friends of pharmacists 2 months ago:
If you are promoting antibiotic resistant bacteria in your body, is that not self harm? I sure think it is.
Not all self harm is cutting, starving, or suicide.
- Comment on Life pro tip for friends of pharmacists 2 months ago:
What you just said, is that stopping the treatment early is detrimental to the human race. Did you perhaps mean the opposite?
Otherwise I’m not sure why you’re trying to argue with me that one should fulfill their treatment plan. I already agree.
I’m not attributing malice. I’m calling it for what it is. Emotional manipulation, intentional or not is beyond the point.
- Comment on Life pro tip for friends of pharmacists 2 months ago:
Just apply some casual emotional manipulation by suggesting self harm and watch the other person trying to ensure you don’t harm yourself.
Is exactly what “Jessica Fletcher” is suggesting. Please don’t…
- Comment on Trump wants the NFL to change its name so that soccer is the only sport called football: ‘We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff’ 4 months ago:
This is one of the rare cases where I don’t disagree with Trump.
But they could just call it what the rest of the world call their sport. “American Football”.
It has their favorite word in it. America.
- Comment on I support this 4 months ago:
Yeah? You’re supposed to put it down after You’re done.
I’m not gonna thank someone for flushing the loo after they’re done either.
