Gawd, it would have been so fucking funny if there actually wasn’t a single instance of cow in it, though. Lol

Be plenty doable then, but that glass is a lot bigger than you thought.

That’s a 16 to 22 oz cup, so you’re going to add a lot of ice to water that thing down
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
We’re going to be using different measurements, but the gist of it is that the glass pictured is 16 to 22oz in size. 8oz (one cup) of milk is about 150 calories. Yogurt (plain) is generally the same, unless you use low fat lite yogurt. So just filling the cup with only yogurt and milk is 300 calories. Blueberries are around 80 a cup.
So there’s just no real way you’re getting a smoothie that size under 200 calories.

Lol at the amount of calories you think are in milk yogurt and berries.

8 is probably pretty close to where I’d break down and dig out the mandolin. Maybe. I’ll use the shedder attachment for cheese or hash browns.

Getting the big Mandela out to cut up 50 of something and leaving it out all day is a big difference from cutting up like 3 potatoes at home.

Those seem fast if you don’t know how to use a knife very well. Plus then you got to clean the thing. Plus you’d be using it a long time if you were trying to make something like fries. Plus they don’t work with things like tomatoes. Then let’s see how a mandolin does with cilantro or green onions.
A mandolin is generally a tool for a novice.

This knife is expensive, but actually pretty badass. It’s an ultrasonic frequency knife and the only non commercial use chefs knife I know of that does it and works. It cuts with no effort, but really the biggest perk is that absolute fuck all will even try and stick to the side of the blade. Still to richy rich for the benefits, but it is cool tech.
- Comment on Need a AI update 2 weeks ago:
It does work and it is super cool from any videos or info I watched on it. Because metal is flexible, the size, length, thickness, and weight of the blade all gave to be taken into account in order to get a vibrating frequency that works. If you ever watch videos of this or ones like it (this is the only good working home use kitchen knife I know if) it’s pretty bad ass, if for nothing else than just for how anti stick it is. I’m still not willing to pay like $400 for it. I’m a big knife sharpening and cooking guy, but I don’t think I’ve paid over about $50 for any of my kitchen knives or over $230 for a pocket knife. Now if I ever wound up seeing one of the Seattle ultrasonics somewhere new or used and still looking good for under $200 I’d probably break down and buy it. Blade stick is pretty annoying when you want to cut something very consistently and not spend a bunch of time to do it.

Besides, those lil trackers were badass and ones in good condition are still sought after. The one in the picture would probably sell for about $7,000 in that condition.
- Comment on Amazon started hiding ratings for some products 5 weeks ago:
I’m in the US. Not once have I seen or even heard of this happening before.
I’m guessing it’s something only being done to the EU when trying to look at Amazon from other countries, or just when looking at other Amazon’s outside your own country.

That’s a negative on pretty much all you’ve said. Companies will keep growing. More people at the companies will max out at how much you can earn. No one will want to give all extra money to just paying taxes. Instead they’ll take that extra money and it will get dumped back into the company. More buildings, expansion, more employees, higher pay and benefits, r&d, etc. they’ll spend the extra money. You’re talking as if someone who was making $5,000,000 a year would just be like “meh. Not worth doing this”
This was actually fairly close to how things where in the 1950’s when the US had everything going it’s way (if you were white, anyhow). Tax rates on the wealthy where over 90% at one point for over $250,000. Back when you could work at a grocery store and own a home and a car and not worry about drowning in medical debt.

So you want a giant ass jet that can carry millions of pounds to carry a giant ass ram jet, scram jet, and rocket ship with boosters and rocket fuel?
Also, the thrust required from that jet is completely impossible. Let alone how wildly inificient all that would be. Every step of the way. Like, this is truly a God awful horrible idea. Like, the worst. Also, it’s not good.

My hot take: Greedy rich companies and millionaires and billionaires will always try to take as much as possible from the consumer. Raising the minimum wage effects people that were making the minimum wage, and is less and less beneficial to those that were making more than minimum wage. If minimum wage jumped up by $5 to go from $7.25 to $12.25, anyone who was already making $12.25 isn’t likely to get a raise to $17.25.
But because all these people are making more, the wealthy will up pricing if food and housing and utilities in order to keep making even more. This means inflation also rises faster. So while it helps things in the short term, it does nothing to help people in the long term, and it also hurts people closer to or already retired because the inflation will make their fixed incomes worth less.
So raising the minimum wage alone is a shit idea that only puts a short term bandage on things and the rising inflation means you’ll constantly be “behind the eight-ball” and playing catch-up to keep trying to raise it as inflation keeps rising because the rich keep getting richer.
The real fix needs to be lowering the top. Not raising the bottom. Tax the shit out of the wealthy with higher taxes as money made grows. Close the tax loopholes that let them hoard wealth. Make it so that so much of their money beyond like $5,000,000 in cash or assets increasing in value a year would be pointless to try and make because it would all just go to taxes. This will cut the legs out from under the wealthy and stop the needless ripping off of everyone else. If they can’t hoard money and increase their monetary value infinitely then the money will start going to the places it should. The inflation would stop, and upping the minimum wage could actually keep things livable.

They’re efficient for what they are but think of it more like a gas pickup truck getting 30 mpg would be considered very efficient. But that would be terrible for a compact car.
Also, scram jets only get efficient once they’re going fast enough.

I mean, that’s kinda still just adding on weight and another “stage” to the rocket. A scram jet hauling a rocket ship will use tons of fuel.
- Comment on Lmao 1 month ago:
Build a large enough magnetic rail launcher and you could save shit tons of fuel. Get a ship doing 2000 mph before it leaves the ground and needs its rockets and you’ll have a pretty good head start.

They don’t just read plated. They’ll recognize scratches and dents on specific vehicles and also facial recognition. Basically complete human and machine tracking. Cities with flock cameras everywhere can track every move you make.
