- Comment on Cooling stuff does not require any energy! 1 week ago:
But keeping things cool itself doesnt need any energy
My electric bill disproves this statement. Otherwise, why would we need electrical devices that remove heat from things?
- Comment on The age of adulthood should be 21 and the age of consent should be 25 across the world 1 week ago:
Congrats! You’ve reached full boomer status. Would you like some tapioca pudding?
- Comment on TV/MA 'High School' teen drama shows should be set in college and centered around young adults or adults. 1 week ago:
In my experience, “young adult” refers to a specific stage in life, and takes place directly after teenage, but before your 30s (i.e. 20-30). In fact, the fact that the word adult is in “young adult” does imply that they are adults, just more to their larval stage.

It’s a shame he never had the pleasure of Bradford Pear trees in the spring. 🤢 🤮
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
Here’s how I approach old and slow:
- Older software is mature and battle tested. It’s been around long enough that the developers should know what they’re doing, and have built a strong community for help and support.
- Slow is okay when it comes to accuracy. Would I love to back up my gigabytes (peanuts compared to some of you folks out there with data centers in your attics) in seconds? Yes. But more importantly, I’d rather have my data be valid for if I ever need to do any kind of restore. And I’ve been around the block enough times in my career to see many useless backups.
- Comment on YSK When you hover over a piece of the phonetic notation on (English) Wikipedia, it shows you an example for its pronunciation 2 weeks ago:
If that’s not divisive in today’s political climate, I don’t know what is.

In addition to a sleep study, talk to your doctor about POTS.

- Comment on Apple iPhone 17 Devices Plagued by Wi-Fi Connectivity Issues 3 weeks ago:
My guess is that they are making their own WiFi chip and it’s growing pains.

The Nobel Piece Prize should go to a slice of cake.

- Comment on Education doesn't increase intelligence by making people memorize things, but by constantly reminding people that they might be wrong. 4 weeks ago:
Another way to think about it is to say that education is the memorization of knowledge, while intelligence is the application of said knowledge. i.e. book smarts vs. street smarts. They aren’t the same things, but are two building blocks that work together.
At least that’s how I look at it.

- Comment on GitHub introduces hybrid post-quantum SSH security to better protect Git data in transit 4 weeks ago:
If you were like me and not sure what “post-quantum SSH security” means, you should read this. TL;DR it’s an algorithm believed to be unbreakable by quantum computers.
- Comment on A lot of people make the mistake of thinking they have real life plot armour 4 weeks ago:
👆
This. Don’t ever let anyone ever convince you that you’re an NPC in your life. You may not be someone else’s main character, but that’s okay. You are yours.
~Believe me when I say there is nothing more debilitating than losing your sense of self in your life.~
- Comment on thick skinned employees, how can you be so thick skinned? 5 weeks ago:
It’s quite possible these men have reached the Nirvana of being thick-skinned. If so, we all should be in awe, as that is a rare thing to achieve. It also could be that men are not allowed to show emotion, and would otherwise be condemned if they complained or didn’t “take it like a man”; especially being around a lot of women where they feel even more pressured to show up and be a man.
- Comment on Alternative to github pages? 5 weeks ago:
Codeberg is not just for static websites. It’s for FOSS projects. Their FAQ addresses this.
- Comment on 4th dimension doesn't exist because even 1D or 2D themselves are not real. 1 month ago:
Personally, and take this with a grain of salt, I feel like you’re overthinking it. Everything at some level is just an abstraction of something else. So what. Dimensional exist whether you acknowledge them or not. 🤷♂️
- Comment on WiFi signals can measure heart rate—no wearables needed 1 month ago:
And I guarantee some organization will figure out how to use this for some police state bullshit.
- Comment on Heroes with super strength would be really out of shape 1 month ago:
Exercise barely burns any calories compared to the calories burned through your daily activities, like breathing, moving around, etc.
Think Mark, think! If you need on average 2k calories to maintain your current weight, that means your body is already burning 2k calories a day for you doing nothing extra like working out.
What working out really helps with (aside of “increasing strength”) is to keep your body in motion and flexible. When your body is in motion it will ramp up your metabolism throughout the day (comparatively to a sedentary lifestyle).
Also, you have a default level of strength that does not need exercise to maintain. So if I can lift a 40lb bag of dog food with ease, then I can keep doing that regardless of I work out. Now, factor in that if my job was to load and unload 40lb bags of dog food every day, I’d probably get stronger just because my job is my exercise.
Sorry for the rambling, but my point is that there is so much more to being fit and healthy than simply exercising (and I imagine super heroes do all those other things too by way of their “job”).
- Comment on YSK that hand sewing is a stupid cheap hobby to get into and reduces your impact on the environment 1 month ago:
Also space and peace of mind. Sewing machines aren’t the largest of machines, but they do require a dedicated space, and can be somewhat noisy.
- Comment on "Wait, was that shampoo? Yeah.. Welp, I guess we're washing our body with shampoo today." 1 month ago:
Any tips for moisturizers that don’t leave you feeling even greasier than before you showered?
- Comment on "Wait, was that shampoo? Yeah.. Welp, I guess we're washing our body with shampoo today." 1 month ago:
Honestly, sometimes using just water is fine and good for your skin since soap dries it out.
- Comment on '3d-printing a screw' is a way to describe how AI integration is stupid most of the time 1 month ago:
Who suggested major manufacturers 3d print their parts? That’s not what the analogy said at all. But hey, make your own shit up if that makes you feel smug and superior.
- Comment on '3d-printing a screw' is a way to describe how AI integration is stupid most of the time 1 month ago:
Um. You do know that people already print screws using materials like metal and nylon, which are what a lot of screws are already made out of. Just saying. 😊
