Maybe? I’d recommend giving them an orange to peel before shooting unrelated drugs up their nose, but it might work
- Comment on China's first real gaming GPU is here, and the benchmarks are brutal 2 weeks ago:
Okay, let’s say you have a fuel injected car, but instead of using the 02 sensor to decide the fuel air mixture, it just squirts the same amount of gas every time.
The hardware might be able to achieve 400 hp, but the software means it only ever achieves 50 hp
It’s like that. The software drives the hardware. It doesn’t matter how good the hardware is, the software is the brain of the operation - if the software doesn’t know how to utilize the hardware properly, you’re going to have piss poor performance
- Comment on China's first real gaming GPU is here, and the benchmarks are brutal 2 weeks ago:
Driver’s? They literally drive the hardware your computer is using
- Comment on super critical CO2 generator in commercial deployments in China 2 weeks ago:
So it’s just using CO2 like a refrigerant but to turn a turbine?
I mean, that’s cool and all, but some of the headlines make it sound like this is sequestration (not this one)

Look up the Technocracy movement. These ideas have been floating around in certain groups for a while… Such as the heritage foundation
- Comment on Insider trading, but make it worse 2 weeks ago:
It’s unrelated gambling to be specific. You can fix the results or have insider knowledge
- Comment on What's it going to take to truly stop the US? 2 weeks ago:
We wait it out. It’s a collapsing empire, a real war would prolong the collapse, they’res plenty of historical precedent
We’re doing our best to speed run it, guys. Maybe make fun of us for healthcare more, it’s a real sore spot
- Comment on China completes most powerful hypergravity centrifuge 2 weeks ago:
Let’s define hyper gravity first…I have no idea what that could even mean
- Comment on It is theoretically possible to constantly travel so that it is perpetually daytime wherever you are 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, a fighter jet with refuels could chase the sunlight for quite a while. At some point jets need maintenance though, but there would be plenty enough wiggle room to land and change jets, we can beat Earth’s rotation
So yeah, sure, it’s absolutely possible

- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 2 weeks ago:
But one option is hygienic, the other two are convenience. Fuck convenience, put the lid down and wash your hands, it’s for everyone’s sake
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 2 weeks ago:
You are correct, I did mean lid down too
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 2 weeks ago:
It does make a difference, it means measurably less poo bacteria on places like your tooth brush
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 2 weeks ago:
But seat down is more hygienic when you flush. It isv the morally situation superior position
- Comment on Is there a self-help way to deal with fear of germs/"contamination"? 3 weeks ago:
Force yourself to do things you think are gross. Touch the sink and eat a sandwich. Eat a cracker off the floor. Little, very low risk things like that
Practice being able to overcome it, it’s that simple
- Comment on People who have eaten since December 31st, 2025, why are you trying to start new shit? 3 weeks ago:
Trying to get out all the 2025 shit. 2026 may or may not be better, but I know I want to be done with 2025
- Comment on Do I have extreme anxiety? 3 weeks ago:
You think it hasn’t crossed their mind already? The urgency is the point. They need to tell others they are in distress
You can’t just be left in that state, it gets worse and worse. And if it’s a brain tumor, which could cause many of those symptoms, speed is survival.
I get what you’re saying, but sometimes “it could be a brain tumor” is the brain worm that makes you push through when your family initially dismisses your symptoms
- Comment on Do I have extreme anxiety? 3 weeks ago:
The headaches? No idea. Never had paranoia either.
But I just managed to get treatment for a crippling anxiety disorder, I spent 6 months pacing or crying into the corner
Your description sounds a lot like how I was before my family realized how bad on a way I was. It sounds like major anxiety disorder plus plus
It could also be a brain tumor or something else to. And it can’t wait too long
You need to get help, get your people, tell them you’re not ok, and let them help you. Call all of em. Scream it out that you ain’t ok
I am in distress. There’s nothing undignified about it. Let those who care about you pick up the call. Let strangers pick up the call
Keep screaming. I am not ok! I require assistance!
All else fails, go to the ER, they have to help you. But do the rest first, everyone has some kind of people. In a way I’m of your people, so I answered, best I can, how to call it out better
- Comment on What are therapists allow to share about their clients? 3 weeks ago:
They can share details, just not your details. And if the details they share reveal a connection to your identity, they fucked up

- Comment on If you save someone's life and then you save her life again next year, how many lives did you save? 3 weeks ago:
One. It’s the same life, otherwise you could save infinite lives by care taking for a suicidal octogenarian
- Comment on Hospital Bill 1961 3 weeks ago:
They actually turn around and will slash the cost for the uninsured the second you dispute it. They don’t actually expect people to pay that much
It’s a weird dance with insurance companies, they say it’s costs 20k and then insurance says “ok, I’ll pay 7k” and you pay 5k
An uninsured person might get away with paying even less than $5k when it’s all said and done. It’s not a real healthcare system
- Comment on How does internet advertising work? Where is all the money coming from? More... 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, it’s untenable. It’s a bubble
- Comment on Why aren't tall people also wider? 3 weeks ago:

Does it? It makes me feel hungry
- Comment on Visa says AI will start shopping and paying for you in 2026 4 weeks ago:
Don’t worry, the empire collapses once the debt gets so bad it can’t be paid
Then we either do a jubilee and forgive all the debt, print money and go into hyperinflation to wipe out the debt, or we do neither and our leaders keep arguing about it until starving peasants break down the door
