That’s but how math works, doesn’t matter if you use the American or metric formula

How did you hear negative chirps?
Can I learn this power?

Nothing a jumper wire can’t fix
- Comment on The Trump Mobile T1 Phone looks both bad and impossible 1 week ago:
The awful Trump branding might be laser engraved in America.
Everything else is guaranteed made in Taiwan or china. The US was just barely getting its semiconductor industry back under Biden.
If these things ever ship, I can’t wait for someone to crack one open just to find a bunch of Chinese parts.
- Comment on That's a good question 2 weeks ago:
I can only assume you’re human, so that still counts as a man made religion.
Sounds relaxing though, I’d pray to that.
- Comment on That's a good question 2 weeks ago:
Are their non man made religions I should no about?
I feel like dogs would have a good religion. I wanna subscribe to that.
- Comment on We Should Immediately Nationalize SpaceX and Starlink 2 weeks ago:
If your want proof that the wealthy live by a different set of laws, look no further than the time Elon Musk, ceo of SpaceX, went on a podcast and smoked weed.
SpaceX has DOD contracts for launches, and somehow him blatantly violating federal law had no impact on the contracts his company fulfilled for the government.
Do I think weed should be classified like it is? No.
Do I think that everyone should be held to the same standard? Yes. And if anyone else had been involved in government projects while going on podcasts and smoking weed, they’d at the very least be fired.
- Comment on New fuel cell could enable electric aviation 3 weeks ago:
Where exactly are they storing these fuel cells? Most commercial planes store fuel in the wings, unless I’m mistaken. Imagine a bird strike that exposes pure sodium metal to a cloud or something. Now you have a metal fire on the wing of your aircraft while it’s in flight.
- Comment on Forced E-Waste PCs And The Case Of Windows 11’s Trusted Platform 3 weeks ago:
Linux Mint is very user friendly. It’s basically the windows UI, including all the familiar keyboard shortcuts, and the software store is very robust. 99.9% of things are just point and click. Using Steam and a browser is the exact same experience as on windows, only a bit snappier.
- Comment on Forced E-Waste PCs And The Case Of Windows 11’s Trusted Platform 3 weeks ago:
Proton has come a long way.
The only game I can’t play is fortnight, and that’s because Epic won’t enable the anti cheat to run on Linux, not because the game doesn’t work.
- Comment on Cyberpunk 2 is now in preproduction, CD Projekt says 3 weeks ago:
By the time Cyberpunk 2 comes out, I’ll have my own Keanu installed in my brain.

Ah, the Harry Dresden Assassination technique
- Comment on Stack overflow is almost dead 4 weeks ago:
My experience has been more like this:
OP: I’m trying to make lasagna from scratch but my noodles aren’t turning out right. Here’s my noodle recipe and settings for my pasta machine.
Mod: duplicate post of “How to make canned spaghetti bolognese” thread locked.
- Comment on The U.S. Just Ran a Solar Storm Emergency Drill. The Real Deal Would Be a Catastrophe 4 weeks ago:
If it wasn’t for the stupid Darrel Dixon show, my head canon of the walking dead only affecting America would still stand.
They literally just walk, and it would be pretty obvious that everyone is infected after the first year or so of people dying from the flu and shit. Any country with competent leadership could have squashed the zombies in a couple months.
- Comment on demon named racecar 5 weeks ago:
And the demon name sounds like car sell, which is accurate because all car sale people are demons
- Comment on Elon Musk: your new Tesla will drive from the factory floor, to your house 'this year' 2 months ago:
It’s one of those robots that’s just remote controlled by some guy in a call center.
- Comment on Airbnb will now show users the total cost of their stay right away 2 months ago:
Hotels have always been better in my experience.
Unless you want something like a fishing cabin on a river, but even then I’ve started to look at resorts because after all the fees, they work out to the same price as an airBNB.
- Comment on Tesla Slumps Below 50% Share of California's Electric Car Market 2 months ago:
Im personally looking forward to Edison EV conversions.
The ability to take a vehicle I already have and turn it into an EV or hybrid would be amazing.
I know they’re a while from full production, but I see that as a win. So many of these EVs are having quality issues because they’re being shit out onto the market as fast as humanly possible. I’d rather a company actually take the time to do R&D, test things thoroughly, and then release a product.

Why do the British eat like the Nazis are still flying overhead?
- Comment on Infinite Monkey Theorem 2 months ago:
We are evolved from a common ancestor to all great apes.
A great ape is not a monkey.
Don’t belittle your heritage or I’ll be forced to resolve this like our ancestors, by slinging feces at you until you leave.
- Comment on Car safety experts at NHTSA, which regulates Tesla, axed by DOGE 2 months ago:
It’s not like the US auto industry is a key sector of the economy or anything.
That’s why it was so silly that Obama bailed them out, right? They’re only like 5% of the GDP. 5% is a little baby number.
God this country is power sliding into an another Great Recession. What do these idiots think they’re gonna do when a good chunk of the population loses their homes and comfortable lives because of them? A population with nothing to lose, lots of guns floating around, and no prospects for improvement under the current administration should be a very scary future for any leader.
I’d ask if they remember the French Revolution, but these fuckers seem to want to go back to a time before that.
- Comment on Car safety experts at NHTSA, which regulates Tesla, axed by DOGE 2 months ago:
The NHTSA doesn’t actually certify anything.
They write the standards that vehicles and products must follow, but it’s up to the manufacturers to certify themselves as being compliant.
This explains how the cyber trucks, with no third party testing, are considered road legal in the US and basically no other country.
So Elon is not firing regulators that will deny his cars a certification, he’s firing regulators that decide what the requirements will be.
Thats so much worse.
Source for anyone interested. It’s a reply to a man wanting to import air bags, but the letter does give a nice overview of the laws.
- Comment on Storage, DoGE, and cognitive biases against tape 2 months ago:
Tape is also difficult to steal. The machines to read the tapes are expensive and uncommon, a tape reading machine requires no internet connection, meaning it can’t be subject to man-in-the-middle attacks, and the physical storage devices can be secured and guarded when not in use.
This fucking idiot is gonna lose the plans for our nukes, isn’t he. Just like when he disabled half of twitter because he physically yanked a server rack out of the building without knowing what it did.
- Comment on Modern magic unlocks Merlin's medieval secrets 2 months ago:
Yeah but that dude died and came back so many times he barely knows what his name is or what dimension he’s in.
He’s just tub thumping through the universe, like a cooler Indiana jones.
- Comment on Virgin Physicists 2 months ago:
First, assume a spherical resistor in a vacuum, that can also dissipate heat with 100% efficiency.
Now that we’re in physics land, anything is possible.
- Comment on Something Bizarre Is Happening to People Who Use ChatGPT a Lot 2 months ago:
Yes, but what this movie failed to anticipate was the visceral anger I feel when I hear that stupid AI generated voice. I’ve seen too many fake videos or straight up scams using it that I now instinctively mistrust any voice that sounds like male or femaleAI.wav.
Could never fall in love with AI voice, would always assume it was sent to steal my data so some kid can steal my identify.
- Comment on Tesla recalls all Cybertrucks ever made over trim falling off | Electrek 2 months ago:
They probably had some office assistant order a pallet of bolts from Home Depot.
This is the company that glued the accelerator pedal on, you think they know what grade of bolt they need?
- Comment on Tesla recalls all Cybertrucks ever made over trim falling off | Electrek 2 months ago:
That is also what this article says.
Although a single bolt is going to need to be quite strong to hold down a long piece of steel exposed to high speed wind regularly.

And then convert your life savings to gold and bury it under the slab to troll future civilization.
- Comment on Pinterest changes user terms so it can train AI on user data and photos, regardless of when they were posted 3 months ago:
It’s a completely useless website.
Was looking for a fun weekend project to this weekend. Clicked on a google image result I didn’t realize was from Pinterest.
One photo with no context or additional information. No other angles or anything.
What’s the fucking point of that website.
