Well not all of them at the same time. Also, don’t be silly, a telescope can’t focus that close

Eventually, alcohol will freeze too. Pure alcohol around -110, so that’s kinda hard to do at home, but at 35% Jägermeister will freeze at -25 Celsius.
Totally doable if you pack it in dry ice, for example.

So it may be that Jesus looked like an Italian
Who were, incidentally, also not white untill very recently. Even a hundred years ago, a lot of people didn’t consider Italians to be white people.

Holy shit that’s amazing.

Weirdly enough then that OpenAI is losing money on every querry, they lose money on every paid subscription and are on track to lose billions this year.
- Comment on We're on the wrong timeline! 5 days ago:
AI companies are completely unable to afford to keep running, and I’d be incredibly surprised if they’re still seriously around in 2028

The impact per work of AI vs, say, a set of pighair brushes is massively higher.
Which is the fairest way of comparing them, per artwork.

It’s not stealing if there are no rules whatsoever, which is exactly what anarchy is!

Yeah, what a dumb thing to say. He’s super, he’d never wear glasses.
Running out of hair gel is a big weakness though

It’s an adaptation from “the road not taken”, by Robert Frost, which does the same

No, they had 650 doses in their blood, and up to 7mg per 100ml in their stomach (somehow? I don’t how one snorts lsd, let alone how that gets into your stomach, but sure).
If that’s on an empty stomach, that’s another 70 doses since humans have about 100ml of stomach acid on an empty stomach. If that’s after a night of drinking, it could be a few dozen times more, because having 2 liters in your stomach isn’t weird.
And that’s on top of what already passed.

Women are soft and gentle, and fucking them is effeminate. Real men only fuck rough, hairy, manly men!
- Comment on Knock knock knocking on heaven's do-or-or-aawwhhh 2 weeks ago:
well, 5ml is about a hundred doses of 50ug. I don’t think a hundred doses of anything is a good idea.

- Comment on Clean energy powered 40% of global electricity in 2024, report finds 2 weeks ago:
It’s very annoying that they don’t mention the blatantly obviously problem of how solar generation is distributed. Without significantly more storage (day-to-night) and longer term storage (summer-to-winter), power consumption has basically reached the maximum amount of solar power generation it can accomodate in most western countries.
Adding more solar panels can’t “raise the peak” any further. We’re already seeing more and more curtailment during solar-energy peaks. Additional solar power can only contribute in “widening the peak”, which is MUCH less usefull, since it necessarily discards the most efficient and most productive periods. Of course, they’re still useful in winter, but they’re also much less effective in winter.
Solar will always be kind of a niche, wind and hyrdro are the real powerhouses for anyone who doesn’t live near the equator.
