I just don’t see possibly keeping kids away from internet porn is a worthy trade off in providing even more of our information to companies.

To quote Steve Hofstadder, I’m not a helicopter pilot either but if I see one in a tree I know someone fucked up.
- Comment on How to get a new line in a post, but not two? 14 hours ago:
It’s effective but it’s not right. The answer is 2 (or more) spaces before the line break. A comment recommending 3 or 13 or 1000 spaces before the break will get the job done but it’s not the “actual answer”.

Exactly. So why should we require ID for porn and not for a bad word?

Why stop at porn? Any objectionable words (like darn or poop), or any form of non-consensual contact (including Three Stooges pies in the face) must require photo ID to access. The internet is for everyone, after all.

I’m kinda to the point where it feels like nothing us normies do will change anything so until billionaires are illegal it’s basically like fuck it.

Seth Meyers just had one of his podcast eps where Ike Barinholtz talked about getting a sunburn and trying to do a gig the same night and because he looked so rough between sets a waitress at the club suggested he use yogurt to cool down his thighs. He ended up smearing it around with his pants down when some random woman walked into his dressing room thinking it was the bathroom.
Story’s toward the end of the clip:

IIRC plastic recycling is basically bullshit (except maybe PET bottles?) but aluminum is actually effective. Makes you wonder why we don’t use more aluminum packaging in general.

Firefox has a built in translator, and there are add-ons you can install if you want a different version. Won’t work on image posts though

- Comment on Do movie actors or actress keep the skills they learned? Like no one would screw with Keanu after seeing all the John Wick films? And if they did would they just be fucked from the start? 1 week ago:
IIRC the actors in Matrix did ~6 months of kung fu training, and Keanu did a ton of shooting training for John wick. Of course all the movie stuff is choreographed but it doesn’t mean there’s nothing behind it in all cases.
- Comment on Personal Responsibility 1 week ago:
Modern educational practices have been moving toward skill-based metrics, as in “you should be able to achieve this standard” in order to pass a class (and gets scored on a rubric that reflects skills, rather than some arbitrary “minus 0.5 points for spelling”). As always however, what is best for students is often at odds with what’s achievable in the way schools are designed and funded in a society.

- Comment on Anon takes shots at Donkey Kong 1 week ago:
Agreed. I played through it and it wasn’t bad by any means, but the graphics were pretty much the only interesting thing about it. I don’t think I ever went back to it after beating it once, whereas I played through Mario World a lot. And trying to do the collectathon 100% crap was boring as hell, because so many random hidden bananas were off the top of the screen or just down pits, so I hope you like dying a bunch to figure out which pit doesn’t happen to kill you.
- Comment on Reality vs Fantasy 1 week ago:
I’m not disagreeing with your larger point but I don’t necessarily buy the part of your explanation saying
This is easily demonstrable since “a” and “the” have the same vowel sound in fluent speech (for most dialects of English), but while we get “a cat” but “an apple”, we don’t get “the cat”, but “then apple”
because in most dialects (at least of American English) “the” before a consonant uses ə while before a vowel sound it’s ē.

libertarian house cat analogy
I searched this and found a bunch of reddit libertarians coping about how much they aren’t stupid children living off the government while hating it.

If I could go back and slap the shit out of the inventor of katakana I would. Can you imagine a French class in the US where some kid says “Joo my apple John Clod Van Dam. Joo soois Americane,” and the teacher telling them it’s perfect?

I don’t think ants see very well, so it’d prob be more like lemurs that look exactly like us, but smell like ozone and old grease.

Do they just like, not have screens over there? I stayed in Germany once and the whole house had no screens on the windows, then I started noticing that I couldn’t see them anywhere I went.
- Comment on Time to redraw America's borders in a way that finally makes sense. 3 weeks ago:
I think to most of those people it’s like the US is trying to “steal” the name America from the rest of the continents, but it’s really only the Spanish speaking parts of the Americas that feel that way about it. But they can have it their way in their language, and it doesn’t detract from anything. It’s like getting pissy because some cultures count continents by separating Europe from Asia and others have Eurasia (without even getting started on Afro-Eurasia).

Vagina is (mostly) inside, so it’s more like saying testes (or balls) when we mean scrotum plus everything inside that.

I’m guessing minecraft beats it. Or if you look at an individual player with thousands of hours it’s probably one of the mario speedrunners.

- Comment on Alley cat lunch 4 weeks ago:
The US used to have those vending machines in bars and some restaurants too, up until the 90s. The smoking section of restaurants was mostly an invisible line that cut the room in half, so you could have a smoking table literally right next to a non-smoking one.

Hot pink - Sex
Red - Life
Orange - Healing
Yellow - Sunlight
Green - Nature
Turquoise - Magic/Art
Indigo - Serenity
Violet - SpiritAo I’m seeing on Wikipedia that the original colors represented stuff like sunlight and life. Who was excluded by these categories?
