I’ve never had a download tagged as SuccessfulCrab that wasn’t malware. I don’t know enough about them to know if that’s their fault or the indexers’.
- Comment on How long can someone physically walk for? 1 week ago:
I haven’t seen the movie, but the book is very detailed about how the death march is tearing apart their bodies and minds. Some basically sleepwalk and get the tiniest fraction of rest. But even those that do are driven insane.
I’m not really a fan of most of King’s work, but The Long Walk is worth a read even if you don’t like his other stuff.

Don’t worry, the official standards are changing soon. Elon and others are already training us on the correct way to honor our supreme leader!

Exactly what I thought of. No way this guy is serious; he just wants a wider dating pool.

That’s exactly what I thought too. I had to stare at this one for a while to get it.

Is there something I’m supposed to be doing with Queen Anne’s Lace? It gets more out of control every year, but I just rip it out and compost it.

I always get the thought, “This can’t be normal. Guess I’m dying.”

You could say the same about Hannibal Lector, but I wouldn’t eat him. I do eat pork, though.

Is that salami or raw ground beef?
- Comment on Activity Pub: Can I join a PeerTube or Mastodon server using a Lemmy account? 4 weeks ago:
In my opinion this is the biggest shortcoming of the ActivityHub ecosystem. That’s not to say it should have been solved by now, since I don’t know how to decentralize authentication safely. And after using it for a while I’m not sure I want a single account.
But it is a challenge facing newcomers and those trying to recruit them. This group of services is already tough to explain sometimes, and telling them it all interconnects just muddies the waters when you have to explain that it’s not the way they expect.

I gained it after having a kid. I don’t understand it, so I’d like to see a study as well.

I was going to say Feynman for the same reason. Outside his classes it sounds like the guy was a lot of fun to be around.

So she was swimming for roughly 18 hours? I’m impressed and terrified.
- Comment on Laxative Effect 2 months ago:
As someone who worked at a gas station for many years, I definitely don’t miss this. For some reason the Women’s room was always consistently bad (I assume because they all hovered) while the Men’s room was relatively easy to clean.
But every week or so there was something like the image in the Men’s room that made me regret being born. I’m sure there’s a lesson in there about outliers messing up the average or something.

Outlook does too. Basically the only thing Microsoft has gotten right because it has saved me 100% of the times I forgot.
- Comment on Woman says faecal transplant saved her and could help many more like her 2 months ago:
The science seems to indicate this has the potential to fix a lot of illnesses, but I am beyond skeptical of anyone claiming that it can cure mental illness. Especially something as complex as bipolar disorder.
- Comment on "I swear if that fly gets in my fucking ear again I'm burning the building down with both of us in it" 2 months ago:
Happened to my sister when we were kids. She got a junebug in her ear and it went so deep you couldn’t see it. We filled her ear with peroxide, which seemed to kill it, but she still couldn’t hear.
The nurse said she was making it up and just had too much earwax. We did peroxide rinses every day until it fell out a week later. Probably not very safe to have a bug rotting inside you, but we already owed a couple hundred for the nurse to dismiss us so we definitely weren’t going back to the hospital.

I think most time machines are functionally teleporters as well, since they appear when and where you want. Being able to teleport into the oval office (and then back out) removes almost every barrier preventing them from doing something “which they could do right now”.
