What lazy? With autocorrect it actually takes loads of effort to get rid of capitalisation.
I’m not commenting on the content of the person’s comments, but in terms of writing style I’ve always shared this person’s aversion to capitalisation letters in (my own) casual communications. I don’t know why, it’s weird. Especially “I” as a personal pronoun. Who tf do I think I am? “i” will suffice for ones modest self.

Is that done in some environments? I think Maxima gives answers as fractions by default, but didn’t know how that worked. And my Casio calculator can stick to fractions and surds up to a point, but I think it’s just using float under the surface and converting back ok until too much rounding error creeps in…

I don’t have evidence to back this up, but I don’t think the sun looks that dull to the naked eye from Mars, I think these images were made carefully to show the shape of the moon clearly (with filters etc). If humans evolved on Mars we probably would never have even noticed eclipses were happening unless we eventually used technology to look closely at the sun.

Because of the extreme bendiness of a flaccid penis, and the highly dynamic forces at play in the crotch area during everyday activities like walking, sitting, lying in bed, transitioning between positions, and wearing clothes, people sometimes end up with a pube caught inside their foreskin.

I suspect this is more about the movement. I’m interested to know how it compares if you pee standing, but then sit immediately after.
Anatomically, the sitting position should provide a better path to emptying the bladder, and there are several comments here saying the opposite to you.
I think the very best for emptying is pee sitting, then stand, sit back down, and see if any more will come out.

True, but breaking by not being able to speed up is less catastrophic than breaking by not being able to slow down, or not being able to turn.
Probably the most likely failure mode from old oil would be seizing up when the engine’s cold, so it just won’t start next time.
But you do you, I’m just saying they’re designed with oil changes in mind, and if you do that one basic bit of maintenance it’ll save you money in the long run…
- Comment on She was churning plastic 2 weeks ago:
It’s true clothes are not a good analogy.
Machines that operate at high rpm are in a category of their own, and a car is probably the only one most people ever own. There are metal parts inside separated by fractions of a mm, moving past each other at like 30-40 mph, back and forth like 100 times a second. It heavily depends on good lubricating oil to prevent heat from friction building up and wrecking the whole thing.
And the oil is a consumable, it degrades as it does its job, and needs replacing every now and again. It’s not part of the MOT inspection because it isn’t a risk to other road users, just damaging your expensive bit of kit (and wasting the environmental cost of the energy and materials that went into manufacturing it in the first place).

The network capacity is the main constraint, needs crazy reinforcement to deal with more decentralised generation at the same time as power demand is roughly going to double by 2050 (not long in terms of major infrastructure projects).
And that was all before AI data centres.

- Comment on SBA #119 maths 2 months ago:
division and subtraction are just syntactic flavor for multiplication and addition
Can you tell me a bit more about how you mean this? I searched a bit but only basic primary school level resources about the relationship between addition and subtraction came up.
Do you mean like subtraction is just adding a negative number, and division is just multiplication by the inverse of a number? In that case I don’t really see how it simplifies things much because negatives and inverses still need as much definition. Or are you talking about bit-wise operations like a computer would use to do these things?

Yes in a way, but so much more! A macaroni pie is macaroni cheese filling in a pastry case (usually a single serving size that fits comfortably in a hand). Pie and roll is a delightfully Scottish way of eating a pie. You get a pie, and a buttered bread roll, and you put the pie in the roll, maybe with a bit of sauce (we enjoy red sauce and brown sauce in Scotland), and let nature take it’s course.

We are.
It’s just that some (bad) people think that being woke is a bad thing, and they are overrepresented in the culture at the moment.
To be fair, some (not necessarily bad) people also use woke to mean ‘comes from a good place, but gets taken too far and is a bit cringe’, similar to ‘hippy-dippy’ or ‘touchy- feely’ in the past, I don’t hold that against them too much.

Listen, pal: 2018 is recent times! We can’t just go around updating our opinions of things every two or four years! There’s way too many things, and we have so many opinions. Also, some of us are middle-aged and worn out. The only solution is to form an opinion and then stick with it to the death.
Yours sincerely,
- Comment on Time travelers going back in time to kill the first religion ever before it forms and fucks up humanity 3 months ago:
You might have a point about the rainbow serpent being the oldest continuously worshipped deity.
But there is evidence of religion in the form of ritual burial from long before humans first went to Australia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_religion
I guess we need to think about how you define religion, but as I imagine the lives of early humans, their group’s success, or even survival, depended so much on the whims of forces they did not understand. Our brains are so good at pattern recognition and hardwired for social living, that we inevitably see the randomness of weather or prey migration patterns as the results of our actions, imagine some spirit/god has control over certain things, and then start to organise our society around ceremonies to placate these powerful forces.
Tldr depending how you define it, i think religion is the default human way of knowing the world

Different people will watch different things. Plenty would immediately swipe away from irl real time footage of political leaders, but might be interested in a slick animation with a catchy tune, and there’s something new happening visually every few seconds…
I could see this being effective to an extent.
