  I don’t know which would be more appropriate: shocked Pikachu, or shocked Futurama Fry?

  It apparently loses effectiveness when subjected to extreme temps, but that loss depends on length of exposure. [Source]

  In my area, there are special schools dedicated to hosting expelled kids. It most certainly makes things worse and not better.

  We are the aliens abducting them for probing. I wonder how many fish try to warn their friends and family, just to be shunned as a drunkard crackpot instead.

  I can’t help but feel Douglas was poking fun at himself, considering how his editors had to lock him in a room to finish So Long, And Thanks For All The Fish.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Native Americans?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ths might be an over generalization, but it’s my layman’s understanding that all Native American and Latino people migrated over from Europe-Asia; some went south and colonized Mexico and Central America, while others went to Canada and also the US. So if that’s true, then I would imagine they’d have some shared lineage.

  Look, you need to find some way to get some you time. Start small. Only you can figure out what that means. But you’re absolutely right that it’s unrelenting, and it won’t stop. Talk to someone (a friend or a therapist). Don’t let it stay bottled up.

  Good luck!

  Hey everybody hates pop ups; no shade there. And I get it, when you’re neck deep in whatever game you’re paying it sucks to have interruptions. But calling it dystopian is cray cray. Sorry, not sorry. 😂

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yo, fire fox what the fuck?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is it that a popup notification occurred during your full screen game? Or that it’s Firefox making the popup? I’m confused what makes this dystopian.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Another WSJ banger about why the poors aren't doing more⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s disappointing. While I don’t personally condone the use of that word, we’re all adults here and should be able to just downvote or rebut or whatever without censorship. 🤷‍♂️

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Another WSJ banger about why the poors aren't doing more⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Looking at it strictly from your perspective, it doesn’t make sense does it? But, keep in mind that there are a lot of people who share the same view (regardless of how correct or wrong they may be to you). And when those people gather together and start validating each other, yes your brain releases more dopamine. And when someone is addicted to a substance (even dopamine), we will try to seek out those same triggers so we can continue to get that hit.

  The problem with addiction is that our biology holds a tolerance to it, so we need more of said substance to get the same high as before. So we need to escalate the things we do. And when we don’t get those hits, our physiology causes us to experience pain. And what do you do when you’re in pain? Hopefully you stop doing whatever it is that causes you pain. It’s a vicious cycle; a feedback loop if you will.

  Now I have a question for you: did you actually type out Censored or did you say a “bad” word?

  Yes. Dopamine is a helluva drug.

  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 ⁨TV/MA 'High School' teen drama shows should be set in college and centered around young adults or adults.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ 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.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Here’s how I approach old and slow:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
