- Comment on Darth Vader was NOT a bad person 2 weeks ago:
That’s a nice opinion. Too bad it’s wrong.
- Comment on I feel like half the neighbourhood is on fire and everyone is carrying on like everything is normal 2 weeks ago:
Agree to disagree.
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 2 weeks ago:
So I’m simpler terms I think what you’re saying is the bottle shrinks (surface area decreases). When it does, the volume decreases too and it’s a 5:1 ratio. Correct?
I did click on the link someone posted here and the article made sense to me. Number one was structural. Which is what I would think. Number two mentioned this winter summer think but not during manufacturing ( which makes sense to me), but during shipping which still doesn’t make sense to me. What milk or even orange juice is NOT refrigerated?
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 2 weeks ago:
I’m sorry, I’m just not buying this explanation. I’d need more evidence.
What surface area? It’s volume we’re talking about. You mean if the plastic gets thicker, thereby reducing the interior surface area there is a corresponding decrease in volume? And it’s 5 to 1 ratio? So if the plastic is thicker by 20% there is no room for milk?
Winter bottles, summer bottles? Like the temperatures aren’t controlled because it costs money? They just compensate with a plug, what every season? Like it costs money to control the temperature of a process but it doesn’t cost money wasting plastic.
Hey, I’m not an expert on this subject and I could be wrong but from my perspective you’re just some guy on the Internet that sounds like he knows what he’s talking about.
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 2 weeks ago:
I agree with you.

That’s kind of funny because you literally described a person that lacks empathy. If they had empathy they wouldn’t have to wait for it to happen to them.
- Comment on I feel like half the neighbourhood is on fire and everyone is carrying on like everything is normal 2 weeks ago:
Those who support it, didn’t think that’s the case. They have been brainwashed to think this is all great stuff. I think a lot of them are psychopaths, having no empathy for anyone suffering. They simply don’t believe it until it happens to them and then they are outraged. It’s nuts.
- Comment on How much money should one person realistically make or have? 2 weeks ago:
But the yachts. How would you get yachts with a mere $1M - $5M? And jets?
- Comment on What activity or pastime of yours is barrels of fun? 3 weeks ago:
Ultimate frisbee is more like frisbee football and is played with a Frisbee. I used to do that too. A little too intense for me now. Getting older. Plus when I moved the ultimate frisbee crowd here sucks. Real jerks.
Disk golf is literally like Frisbee golf. It is played with discs. They are a little smaller and quite a bit more not sure how to say it “aggressive”. The “holes” are metal baskets with chains that hang from a halo over the top. The chains sort of grab the disc if you hit them right and the disc falls into the basket. Or in my case the chains act like a wall and spit the disc out. It’s mostly walking from an exercise perspective and yeah quite a bit more laid back. Technically challenging though. Really love it.

Does disc golf count?
- Comment on The ID_10_ts 3 weeks ago:
I was wondering that too.
- Comment on Firefox Will Ship with an "AI Kill Switch" to Completely Disable all AI Features - 9to5Linux 3 weeks ago:
What slows down is YouTube. Perhaps that’s why you haven’t noticed it.
- Comment on Firefox Will Ship with an "AI Kill Switch" to Completely Disable all AI Features - 9to5Linux 3 weeks ago:
Getting ready to ditch this crappy browser. I used to love Firefox but now it’s been enshitified. I’m a tab-o-holic. Have too many tabs open, think I’ll slow down. Leave the browser open too long. I think I’ll slow down. Oops. Looks like your page crashed. Wanna go to this site? Sorry it’s not compatible with your browser.
People seem to hate Brave for the crap they pulled, rightly so I guess, but at least it worked. It seems like there are no good browsers now. I tried Mulvad but due to it’s safety features, it won’t open where I last left off.
Chrome is apparently safe, if you consider Google safe. Microsoft? Puhlease.
- Comment on Do you ever watch old classic TV shows and realize that they are all dead 4 weeks ago:
Ha! I watched Leave it to Beaver and the guy who played Beaver and the guy who played his brother Wally are still alive and still best of friends!! Never mind just looked it up and Wally passed away a couple of years ago. Damn.
- Comment on Google's latest reason to give them $14/month: "Watch in faster playback speeds with Premium" 4 weeks ago:
I know right. I always alter the speed. I watch nearly everything at 1.25 speed because it shortens my viewing time without missing any content and I almost never even notice the difference. With really slow talkers I can get to to 1.75 speed. I almost never go to 2x. I can’t imagine 4x. There is one guy I have to actually show down to 0.75 speed to digest.
- Comment on Google's latest reason to give them $14/month: "Watch in faster playback speeds with Premium" 4 weeks ago:
Typical. Take it away, then charge to bring it back.
- Comment on Mozilla’s new CEO is doubling down on an AI future for Firefox 4 weeks ago:
It’s almost as if they are out of touch with their users. I don’t get it. CEOs are just normal people like us.

We’ll it IS kind of bobbing around out there.
- Comment on 4 weeks ago:
So 1% CAN name it?
- Comment on Don't assume the horrors of the Trump administration will be over after the next election 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, even if a Democrat gets in, why would they NOT assume all the same power TACO has grabbed. It’ll just be a different kind of dictator.
- Comment on Is there a mechanism in the USA to undo presidential pardons years later if political corruption has been proven as motivation to give these pardons? 5 weeks ago:
I don’t have the numbers but I’m guessing it’s been used for harm more than good.
- Comment on Santa is working on those lists 5 weeks ago:
Ok, so just sort of spontaneously then.
- Comment on Santa is working on those lists 5 weeks ago:
Of course. How silly of me.
- Comment on Is there a mechanism in the USA to undo presidential pardons years later if political corruption has been proven as motivation to give these pardons? 5 weeks ago:
I don’t know, but I would be fine if the presidential pardon was abolished. Perhaps replace it with only a stay of execution.
- Comment on Santa is working on those lists 5 weeks ago:
Ok sorry to ask what I guess is obvious. I haven’t been on in as couple of days and now everyone is talking about corn. Could someone please have mercy on me and explain it? Really sorry but I don’t know how to get to the origin of these things. I just see little hints in post after post.
- Comment on The richest people in the world are morally bankrupt 5 weeks ago:
Think about it. He can never really know if someone likes him or is just sucking up because he’s rich and famous. Gotta be rough not having any friends. I think that’s why some rich people get caught with prostitutes. They KNOW where they stand.
Don’t mistake this as sympathy for him, just an explanation as to one of the reasons he may be unhappy.
- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 1 month ago:
Yeah, actually they might. I do use bookmarks too, but for more permanent things, like recipes and car sites (I’m a car guy). For projects I’m working on and will move along when I’m finished I didn’t want them polluting my bookmarks. I guess I could delete the bookmarks too. Look I never said it made any sense. Ugh.
- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 1 month ago:
I’m a tab-o-holic. I probably have ADD. I don’t know but I’ll start researching something and if I don’t finish that research before moving on to something else or if the need for the research is postponed, I don’t want to lose what I was doing.
Also there are sites I go to everyday, email, calendar, YouTube, so I just leave them up all of the time.
Somebody help me!!
- Comment on If every video game was to be destroyed but you had the chance to save five games, what would you choose to save? 1 month ago:
Well let’s see…there’s Pong, of course, then Asteroids, Pac Man, Poker and Tic Tac Toe. Yeah, that ought to do.
