Iirc the lore gets a bit weird about this, but essentially their nutrient requirements are so high that unless they’re eating an entire butchered hog for every meal, they’re basically starving to death. Slowly, yes, but it takes a lot to maintain the astartes’ physiology. Basically tho if things are so bad even the astartes supply line is cut off, you’ve got bigger problems than food to worry about.
- Comment on What would it mean for the world if America was confident they developed a technology that would act as a fool prove deterrent from nuclear attacks what would that mean for the rest of the world? 3 days ago:
They’re talking about a treaty designed to prevent the result of the exact situation you’re asking about. Extrapolating a step gives you at least one answer to your question.

No, we’re just not their target market. Most of their users, inexplicably, actually like changes like this.
- Comment on Kyiv can’t guarantee safety of foreign leaders on May 9 in Moscow, Zelenskyy says 1 week ago:
God, what do they even have left to parade with? Last year was absolutely pathetic, $5 says this year they take it up a notch and fake the drive-by.

Where do I sign the petition for this.
- Comment on Pope 1 week ago:
It wasn’t the trip itself thats particularly viewed as problematic, it was the atrociously patronizing marketing surrounding it and that Katy Perry being just a generally vile person. Nobody is begrudging Amanda Nguyen or Aisha Bowe being along on this trip, they’ve dedicated their lives to the celebration of science and supporting the work of legitimate astronauts.

My relatives / coworkers have also not heard of it, which makes me think it’s probably just not a thing in my region.

Kessler syndrome, here we come!
- Comment on Shein Hikes Prices by Up to 377% Thanks to Trump’s Tariffs War 2 weeks ago:
I’ve never even heard of Shein before, which makes me think this isn’t going to have enough of an impact to change the minds of any magats. We can hope though, I guess…

Morticians hate this one weird trick!
- Comment on In the not too distant past this was a thing 3 weeks ago:
Edge case here: my hands are constantly dirty wirh things I don’t want to get on my phone (relevant hobbies include machining, gardening and calligraphy). A smart watch means I can check to see if a message is important (ex: kids/partner attempting to get ahold of me) and I can answer calls just using my nose/tongue + TTS. I never understood why they were such a mainstream accessory, but they are very convenient in some circumstances.

I know it’s the whole point of them doing this shit but it’s getting so hard to cope with the constant fucking around. What in the fuck are we going to do?
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
iirc this was just an engine that could run on most combustible hydrocarbons, a small gas turbine I think, and the press really stretched a badlt worded explanation of how it worked.

Yeah but howitzers are even mote expensive :(
- Comment on Kawasaki unveils a hydrogen-powered, ride-on robot horse 5 weeks ago:
It is also – and don’t let anyone fool you here – absolute codswallop. The video is pure CGI, and even as a concept, this is as blue-sky as they come.
They evidently have a demo model that can “stand and pose” so that’s neat I guess, but sadly it is not real beyond that.
- Comment on At least Quark had some integrity. 5 weeks ago:
Short answer: It’s a turn of phrase the Incel movement popularized as a dehumanizing dogwhistle.
Long answer: In current American English, “Female” and “Females” are highly formal terms and really are only commonly used in situations like law and clinical literature (this is true of “male” and “males” as well, though there’s much less cultural baggage associated with those terms). People who use them in casual conversation instead of the much more common “Women” (or the diminutive, “Girls”) tend to be the kind of person that uses formal language to emphasize their own superiority over the common masses. Almost invariably this takes the form of explanations about why nobody wants to have sex with them, and it all goes downhill from there.

This… seems… highly theoretical.
- Comment on If we need a common enemy for people to get along then society has already failed 1 month ago:
We need something in common for people to get along. Enemies are just very easy things to share between groups, but common creeds, ideals, projects are all unifiers of equal power, though they’re not nearly as convenient to find.

Oh, yeah, that really does not look real. Like it seems unlikely since there’s been no talk about this until this short and sudden reveal, but wow that video looks fake.
- Comment on Mental health? In *this* economy? 2 months ago:
I think you may have misunderstood - this is not advocating inpatient mental health (esp in the US), this is just a dumb alternative term for having a day off to take care of yourself.

- Comment on France runs fusion reactor for record 22 minutes 2 months ago:
We’re using graphene! Almost entirely for it’s electrical properties true, but we’re using graphene doped batteries in consumer electronics currently. We also use fusion and ITER research for a whole lot more than just power generation - plasma dynamics, just one tiny subfield concerned with physics, has applications in everything from radio transmission beam forming techniques to satellite engines to magnetodynamic modeling to the EMI shielding on your vacuum cleaner.
- Comment on Amazon's previous VP of Prime Gaming said they "tried everything" to disrupt Steam 2 months ago:
So many of their most beloved features are crazily dev intensive to maintain, and critically they’re not static. Amazon never really updates their consumer interfaces, steam is constantly adding new features and reworking their old ones across all their UX. Its just not economically feasible to pop in and replace them if you’re a publicly traded company, the shareholders would look at the maintenance costs alone and faint
