- Comment on It's pretty cruel, particularly for non-native English speakers, that 'lose' and 'loose' seemingly switched spellings, meanings and pronunciations with each other when no one was looking 4 hours ago:
No worries, it was just used to point out the premise of the post. Lose and close were the closest in spelling while also having the dumb pun included if you will. Bad jokes get downvoted or overlooked sometimes 🤷
- Comment on It's pretty cruel, particularly for non-native English speakers, that 'lose' and 'loose' seemingly switched spellings, meanings and pronunciations with each other when no one was looking 22 hours ago:
I was joking, close would only be pronounced similar to lose if it were spelled clues.

Words pronounced like lose? That’s easy. Close
- Comment on Solar modules now selling for less than €0.06/W in Europe 1 day ago:
Not sure what they did I searched the site and went to their clearance section but I don’t know enough about panels and investors to really know if they are actually good prices or anything. www.santansolar.com/…/clearance/
- Comment on Petition calls to ban Elon Musk's X in Europe 2 days ago:
To operate there they would have to hire the staff back then, or not do so. That said, usually intent is all that matters, so if something gets through, so long as you showed efforts to prevent it and remove it in a reasonable manner, they would be fine.
- Comment on America's Next Health Secretary Enjoying A Meal With His Future Boss and Colleagues 3 days ago:
Kennedy spoke openly the other day that the food they eat on the plane is absolute crap that is either big macs or KFC. So this could be a staged photo, but also it work mean another member of the photo was bitching about it being real and is lying.

Neanderthals were fairly progressive, mancaves came later.
- Comment on American house 2 weeks ago:
Id imagine it exists everywhere the Catholic Church went. Most places likely didn’t commercialize it to people like we did though.
Think it’s called All Saints day in some places

Why should a person who goes to the park care about the park?
If people are dumping trash everywhere and all the plants and animals are dying, I assume you wouldn’t like to spend much time there anymore.
Sure another park might be opened, but constantly changing parks isn’t what you want to do long term. If someone buys up the basketball court and turns it into a cesspool of hate, you can unsubscribe from that court and remove it from your park. Adding another one that is nicer, without completely going to a new park.
- Comment on Feds Say You Don’t Have a Right to Check Out Retro Video Games Like Library Books 3 weeks ago:
So if I’m understanding what you are saying correctly this is pro “book” burning. Only in this case it is games. If a group or entity wants to make a piece of history more scarce or wipe it from the planet because they disagree with it, buying up or destroying as many physical copies that exist would work because people legally can’t back them up or print more copies essentially?
- Comment on Where does a man get a proper shoe horn that will not break 3 weeks ago:
My grandparents from Poland, and my grandparents from Italy had them, my parents and brother have them. I’ve never owned them. But I grew up in Florida, so you don’t need them for flip flops
- Comment on Cable companies ask 5th Circuit to block FTC’s click-to-cancel rule | Cable companies worry rule will make it hard to talk customers out of canceling 3 weeks ago:
Maybe if their retention rate drops they’ll just lower their costs to those rates, or better their services.
- Comment on How come people who are against abortion are in favor of the death penalty? Kind of seems like a contradicition/ 4 weeks ago:
So was the guy they executed the other day right? So innocence might not be it either
- Comment on If Trump loses the election and flees to another country to avoid his sentencing in his (multiple) lawsuits, does the Secret Service have to go with him? 1 month ago:
I imagine they would just arrest him and hand him over for protection. Any member who allowed it would be breaking their oath and supporting an enemy of the state at that point would they not?
- Comment on Marques Brownlee says ‘I hear you’ after fans criticize his new wallpaper app 1 month ago:
Yeah, I imagine him getting shipped products over and over and then likely being paid to try them out and then paid to review them would dampen the authenticity. That said, I haven’t watched much of his content so I couldn’t tell you if he really was really bias or changed over time.
- Comment on U.S. to ban Chinese, Russian software and hardware used in autonomous vehicles 1 month ago:
When a light turns green every car should start accelerating at the same time, it doesn’t happen with people driving. Traffic jams will plummet with cars communicating eventually. It’s far off but it would be nice.
- Comment on Important information 1 month ago:
Yet I still eat soup with a fork when I can. I eat the contents, then drink the broth from the bowl. I’m a tad in the wackadoo side maybe
- Comment on Which Countries Have The Most Data Centers? 1 month ago:
I think it is was supposed to come across as anti American not beneficial. People have been knocking data centers for their overuse of energy, thereby trying to say the U.S. is using mass amounts of energy. They just wanted to make a chart that showed the U.S. having way more of these “problem facilities” without any more thorough information.
- Comment on Man Arrested for Creating Fake Bands With AI, Then Making $10 Million by Listening to Their Songs With Bots 2 months ago:
I mean hopefully they’ll drop the case, and fix the underlying issues to ensure the artists get paid, and the scams don’t continue. The world isn’t that nice though is it.
- Comment on Man Arrested for Creating Fake Bands With AI, Then Making $10 Million by Listening to Their Songs With Bots 2 months ago:
Nah he is saying the streaming services should fix their flaw / the guy shouldn’t have consequences for what he did, as it was all inputted in a legal way it seems.
- Comment on Why do boomers hate squirrels so much? 2 months ago:
I normally don’t care for broad strokes like this either, but his statement was that every boomer with a bird feeder hated them, so it wasn’t all boomers.
That said, squirrels where I was from are much more scarce than they once were. The acorns are still around, but the animals… Slowly disappearing.
- Comment on Average game chat censorship 2 months ago:
True, could be a default list that you remove them from. What a s*** storm. *long click and select unsensor once, unsensor all, or review blacklist.
That way if people want to be sheltered they can never have to see it, and I can unblacklis> t them all at once, and the people afraid of the term moist can make sure they protect themselves via their list
- Comment on Average game chat censorship 2 months ago:
Game I play sensors damn, so I have to remember to say dam. Forget constantly so I am getting into he habit of just typing shit fire instead. “Ah, shitfire” Doesn’t care to block that I guess
- Comment on Why is Kamala Harris being held at such a higher standard than Trump this election? 2 months ago:
That would add up if you thought people should choose fascism or death from climate change over some sense of chance.
We need to make larger demands, but voting for those options you listed shouldn’t be 50/50 as the post is questioning.
- Comment on Research shows more than 80% of AI projects fail, wasting billions of dollars in capital and resources: Report 2 months ago:
There’s a mobile game my spouse got me into. I am not normally a mobile gamer, they threw an ai assistant in there, and I think it is great. I can ask if how to I improve such and such, it tells me how or where to go. Which heros do best against this monster, it will tell me the lineups, so I can know where to focus things without writing it all down or searching the web or memorizing shit tons of information I won’t remember.
It’s it worth it for them, not sure. It also does the help junk that leads up to tech support or contacting a person if needed.

Oh cool thanks. I saw Div tags listed in there, does it natively support such or does that still fall into the css or JavaScript type of chunk.

Markdown, never heard the term, the m in html is markup I thought, it’s been years since I did any web design. 2006 I think is when I studied it, so I used notepad, and Dreamweaver was still owned by macro media haha

Yeah I assumed it was just html underneath it all. Test: <i>italics</I> <Strong>bold</strong>

I usually always use : ) type of faces to give tone, but I used to use text like you did there for shrug, but I assumed it would alter the text due to underlying text editor like this
