- Comment on Anon is a test subject 1 day ago:
Turns out, the real experiment was to see how much electric shock a subject would endure due to preconceived notions about gender stereotypes.
- Comment on Galaxy S10 til the wheels come off 3 days ago:
Left the market a few years ago. Sorry bud. I wanted to get the Wing, but grabbed a OnePlus 9 Pro instead. No regrets.
- Comment on Galaxy S10 til the wheels come off 3 days ago:
No. That’s (almost) all Samsung devices. They make decent screens and camera sensors though…
- Comment on Not to mom shame... 5 days ago:
She might be wearing it to keep other people away and stop them from taking to her.
It really does stop the voices, just not the voices you’d expect.
- Comment on Anon watches romance anime 1 week ago:
It takes a lot of work and compromise. You are getting one glance at a lifetime.
I got married sorta recently. My biggest hold-up was the fact that the most optimal outcome of marriage was this: I was going to spend the remainder if my life making them happy, always being there, and being an essential part of their existence, and when they need me most, in their golden days, near the end, they’re gonna have to hold my hand and watch me fucking die.
I told them this before I proposed, and the crazy thing was, they were still all for it.
- Comment on Anon reflects on e-sports 1 week ago:
I remember CRTs being washed out, heavy, power hungry, loud, hot, susceptible to burn-in and magnetic fields… The screen has to have a curve, so over ~16" and you get weird distortions. You needed a real heavy and sturdy desk to keep them from wobbling. Someone is romanticizing an era that no one liked. I remember the LCD adoption being very quick and near universal as far as tech advancements go.
- Comment on What do you do with Nazi memorabilia? 2 weeks ago:
You could de-nazi it. Use a Dremel/rotary tool to take off all the Nazi shit.
- Comment on Why don't electric car manufacurers put solar panels on the car roofs? 2 weeks ago:
To put this in perspective… The Aptera claims it with charge at 13mph on level 1 charging. This means if you plug it in the a regular wall socket, you’ll get 13 miles of range per hour.
The full solar package(~2000 dollar add on) get 40 miles of range, per day, under ideal sunlight exposure. That’s roughly a little under 4mph of charging. With a purpose built solar setup, which covers the rear window and even puts solar panels on the dashboard.
The Tesla model 3 gets something like 4-5mph charging on level 1. The full solar package from Aptera might be able to add about 8-10 miles per day in ideal conditions.

sighs Okay, to start, you’re going to need some amber and sheep’s wool…
- Comment on Believe what you see, not what you’re told 5 weeks ago:
Interesting. [youtu.be/GFqmDazwb6Y?si=bn3-LHDfYpQ2TjQQ](That’s interesting.)
- Comment on Why are people talking about flying a flag upside-down? 1 month ago:
Flag code in the US is just recommendations for citizens. I think it is only “enforced” for military personnel.
- Comment on who's tried it? what does it taste like? 1 month ago:
Not sure if this is a woosh or if you’re just rollin’ with it.
- Comment on who's tried it? what does it taste like? 1 month ago:
Minge tastes vaguely of copper.
Do you only eat out chicks that keep loose change in their front pocket?
- Comment on It's important to get a good interest rate 1 month ago:
This is why we should eat the richest person each year and re-distribute their wealth.
Imagine all those greedy fucks using their vast reserves of cash to investigate and call out the real wealth and scummy accounting of the other ultra wealthy.
- Comment on Whoops 2 months ago:
Just like mynlug nuts.
Amazing how far you can go with just two.
- Comment on Door mat subscription is $29.99 per month 2 months ago:
Door knob can be twisted to open the door. Door handle is static (it doesn’t twist or move) it’s just a convenient place to grab the door.
- Comment on This is a Test 2 months ago:
Instructions unclear. Revolver went off half-cocked.
- Comment on This is a Test 2 months ago:
Consider that the gun may be part of the crime scene. The more people interact with it, the less useful it is as evidence.
- Comment on How to know you're in Indiana. 2 months ago:
They identify as a bi straight-arrow.
- Comment on Homer 2 months ago:
Wait, 2 kids? Which one died?
- Comment on What if I ever need it? 3 months ago:
I got certified 6 months ago. They still (in the US) recommend 2 breaths every 30 compressions. For 2 people, one person manages the AED, and the other does CPR and you switch every 2 cycles, or whenever one person is too tired to continue.
Point is moot, you probably don’t have enough mass, or lung volume to compress the chest and inflate the lungs on a giraffe.
- Comment on What animal could you take in a fight? 3 months ago:
Only worry if you can’t punt it. A squirrel can’t gnaw your fingers from 50ft away.
- Comment on What animal could you take in a fight? 3 months ago:
Are you worried about being attacked by a rat, squirrel or groundhog?
- Comment on What animal could you take in a fight? 3 months ago:
If you can’t punt it, then you should keep your distance. Snake is too low to punt, wolverine is too tenacious. Keep distance, and don’t punt.
- Comment on What animal could you take in a fight? 3 months ago:
A goose is a lot scarier than a medium dog, but if you punt a goose, it’s done for.

Also, the maps includes captive shark attacks, such as bites at the Newport Aquarium in KY.
- Comment on What animal could you take in a fight? 3 months ago:
A technicality, but (most) sharks don’t gasp for air.

picks up pretty seashell How tough can a snail be?
- Comment on What animal could you take in a fight? 3 months ago:
My wife was worried about raccoons around the dumpster, and I told her I classify animals into 2 threat levels. Puntable, and non-puntable. If you can punt it, you don’t need to be afraid of it. Raccoons, small dogs, even geese, all fit in this category. If you can’t punt it, then you need to be wary of it, so moose, mountain-lion, irukandji, best to keep your distance.
