- Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy? 13 hours ago:
Trump crashing the economy, Trump dying from whatever, Vance taking over and taking credit for any kind of recovery sounds almost like its planned.

He looks like hes 12 in that photo and 35 at most otherwise.

Nut 5 times back to back, without ever getting soft, who is this super human?
- Comment on Are any calls without caller ID legit? 1 day ago:
Whenever I call 911, my phone notifies my that blocked numbers will be able to call for a little bit after dialing 911.
- Comment on Are any calls without caller ID legit? 1 day ago:
I used to set my phone as a private number. I’d have to call customers sometimes to confirm times or discuss jobs, but most customers didn’t need access to my direct number and we’d rather them contact the office than contact me directly.
- Comment on You can add self-driving to non-Teslas via comma.ai's "openpilot": an open-source, LiDAR-based dashcam module 1 day ago:
User choose to install their own software, meaning its now the softwares fault the car killed a pedestrian.
I’m all for open source but even closed source profit based systems haven’t mastered self driving, this seems a little bit ridiculous to use on a public roadway.
- Comment on When bad guys capture you, instead of torture, they should just have someone charming take you out for drinks. 1 week ago:
Nah they really mess with you. You’re tortured most of the time except those times they clean you up, get you tipsy and send you with the honey pot. Rinse and repeat everyday until one of the methods breaks you or the honey pot falls for you for real and plans an escape.

The path we are going is just doubling down on that future. Even if transitioning and slowing our impacts won’t fix things, it could help slow the changes down to a more manageable pace. Doubling down on burning more oil, and overall more consumption, could increase the rate the climate is changing at. It could overwhelm garbage and recycling capacity (this is already true in many places or sectors).

Also access to shaving products and accessories is getting easier. Hand held electric razors are getting smaller and can do a lot of the work before a blade makes a smooth finish.
That said, as a male i hate shaving my privates smooth. I find the hair acts as a natural lubricant, without hair everything either gets sticky or feels slimy down there.

Yea mine dipped down and got caught in between the chain and gears once

If he tried he may accidently crush them.
- Comment on How would he have 6 limbs otherwise? 1 month ago:
I like to keep one around if i need to clear an abandoned mineshaft. Sometimes its worth it as a way to reroll your enchants while still getting something you can use early on.

If that were true, wouldn’t the bane of arthopods enchantment deal extra damage to the dragon?

Wake up babe, new waifu themed data collection hardware just dropped.
- Comment on LG's new stretchable display can grow by 50%, bendy panels can be deformed into new form factors 4 months ago:
Couldn’t they just use our existing curved screen technology that we see on gaming and work station monitors? The real innovation here is being stretchy and moldable and i doubt those features are needed for a dashboard.

That isn’t adulting, that is an isekai anime

Forever replacing the job of the intern.
- Comment on A decline in arable land 5 months ago:
Can you really call a sea of single family homes and overgrown backyards a city? I get that cities get bigger, but if we are going to pave over farmland lets fit more than 5-10 people per acre.
- Comment on A decline in arable land 5 months ago:
Yet here in Canada, we pave over our farmland to build McMansions and strip malls. Sure we can feed our own country and then some still, but is this really the best use of such high quality arable land?
- Comment on Hmmmm 5 months ago:
Yes
- Comment on US couple blocked from suing Uber after crash say daughter agreed to Uber Eats terms 6 months ago:
In this specific case, society could have built a more fair transportation system, such as safe public transit, effectively providing an altnative to uber and a way to avoid agreeing to the terms.
- Comment on Men Harassed A Woman In A Driverless Waymo, Trapping Her In Traffic 6 months ago:
Yea I’m not too keen on giving authorization to hit pedestrians. If I feel threatened in my car, I am not allowed to run over the person so why should a driverless car gain that right? And if the panic button is going to call the police, how is that any different from the passenger using their phone to contact police? Seems like extra steps of middlemen and confusion when the passenger could just call once they feel the need.
I could defintely see a case for some extra safety features that help keep the doors locked and shut, maybe thicker windows too if needed to prevent robberies/assaults.
