That would make any deliberate destruction of government property a terrorist act. That’s absurd.
- Comment on Fixed speed camera toppled hours before switch-on 5 days ago:
I believe it’s a lot of exaggeration to call it that. Like, an egregious amount.

And yet, PNG has more support. If they start supporting the new spec, seems like an improvement to me.

Man, I don’t want them knowing I don’t make my bed.
- Comment on Police use controversial AI tool that looks at people’s sex lives and beliefs 2 weeks ago:
Where does the data come from? It talks about combing data from a variety of law enforcement databases, but I can’t imagine that has info on people’s sex lives, health, or political beliefs. Can it?

Planes are safer. Plus, TSA is the only way I get any sexual contact. I’m not giving that up.

Jeez, why did DVD share go up so much? It’s usually about 50% DVD when I see these things.

We actually have jobs where we can take time off to protest. You know, if we’re being rude and stereotyping.
- Comment on Spicy food never affects my gut and everyone thinks it's really weird. How unusual is this and what could be happening to explain why spicy food doesn't affect me? 3 weeks ago:
I couldn’t say how common it is, but I’m a bit jealous. I love spicy food but I definitely suffer the consequences. Not usually in the feeling it on the way out but in the irregular movements department.
And it’s not even about having something too spicy. Sometimes I eat something one day and I’m fine, but eat it a different day and and it wrecks me.

The uhh, simplified version, is that the way out has the same reciptors as the way in when it comes to spiciness.

- Comment on Ads when you’re pumping gas 4 weeks ago:
It’s still very rare for me to see a pump with ads. Mostly happens at stores with attached gas stations: Kroger, Walmart, etc. I don’t go to those places. Not because of ads though. That’s just a bonus.

- Comment on Supreme Court unanimously judged that reverse discrimination does not require extra proof 4 weeks ago:
You’re right, but I’m using the same terms as the article. Racism has become somewhat of a catch all term for many types of descrimination.
- Comment on Supreme Court unanimously judged that reverse discrimination does not require extra proof 4 weeks ago:
The problem with “reverse racism” is that it gets tossed around too casually. Might even be the case here. Gay person promoted a gay person? Apparently it must be reverse racism. Couldn’t just be that the gay person is better for the job, or was more friendly with the boss. Nope, it’s clearly because that person is gay.
Presumably, we’ll see the facts once the case starts.

I’m one of them. It mostly comes down to, is this movie a visual masterpiece. If no, I get a DVD, usually. Depends on price. Sometimes a Blu-ray is cheaper cause of a sale or someone selling a cheap copy. There’s maybe a handful of movies I own where Blu-ray is a must.
I own nothing in 4k despite having a 4k TV. The difference is miniscule to me. At least at normal viewing distance.
- Comment on No context needed. 5 weeks ago:
It’s less about how clean it actually is and more about how I feel about it. Same way that I wouldn’t eat anything that fell into a brand new unused toilet. Like, it’s clean, but… nah.
- Comment on No context needed. 5 weeks ago:
I’d never do that, even if I just deep cleaned my sink.
