- Comment on Albanese says Australian government now ‘open to consideration’ of sending troops to Ukraine 1 day ago:
Nothing like a common hatred for Trump to unify the west.
- Comment on China’s humanoid robot turns into Kung-fu master after dancing debut 3 days ago:
I thought the same. And watching the second video it’s still impressive, but much more realistic.
- Comment on Microsoft is reportedly killing Skype 5 days ago:
That’s why I said around these parts. Back then there was a lot more regional fragmentation.
- Comment on Not real... *for now* 5 days ago:
Where you gonna go without your government issued passport?
- Comment on Not real... *for now* 5 days ago:
It’s your government issued app, required to access services like hospitals and social security.
- Comment on Microsoft is reportedly killing Skype 5 days ago:
Around these parts in the 2000s, MSN Messenger was what literally everyone used. Then Microsoft bought Skype and decided to shut down MSN Messenger. Then they also ruined Skype. Microsoft just can’t do anything right despite making so much money. It’s like they have no long term vision.
- Comment on Denmark to ban mobile phones in schools and after-school clubs 5 days ago:
If a phone is required for a class, teachers can still demand it as course material.
- Comment on Denmark to ban mobile phones in schools and after-school clubs 5 days ago:
If you want to provide classes that teach about technology you can open exceptions for those classes. You don’t need you phone during math, acience and language classes.
- Comment on Israel denies entry to two EU lawmakers, accusing one of supporting boycotts 1 week ago:
They have to, otherwise their self-defense facade falls. You can’t blame them for being consistent.
- Comment on BRASSICAS 1 week ago:
I just bake them with a little oilve oil, salt and rosemary. That’s all it takes.
- Comment on BRASSICAS 1 week ago:
Just like dog breeds look very distinct, but cranked up to eleven with horrible deformities. Imagine if we continued to breed chihuahuas to have bigger heads and smaller bodies until they are 90% head. Or breed a breed of hound to be smaller with increasingly bigger ears until it’s 90% ears. They would still be dogs of the same species because they can procreate together.
- Comment on BRASSICAS 1 week ago:
Doesn’t sound like a complete diet
- Comment on I love the future. 1 week ago:
But more important, the power not to investigate people. Wink wink
- Comment on why do some straight people deny their loved ones’ homosexuality? (keyword: SOME) 1 week ago:
And on top of that, it’s malleable, changeable.
- Comment on why do some straight people deny their loved ones’ homosexuality? (keyword: SOME) 1 week ago:
And is also a spectrum. Most people would probably be bi, if social pressure didn’t exist. It’s honestly weird to think that anyone would be 100.00% gay or straight.
- Comment on why do some straight people deny their loved ones’ homosexuality? (keyword: SOME) 1 week ago:
Bi erasure comes in all flavours. Gay guys around me also often don’t believe guys can be really bi, just gay in denial, or closeted gays living a straight life. The B in LGBT+ might as well be the bigotry in the community for how prevalent it is.
- Comment on why do some straight people deny their loved ones’ homosexuality? (keyword: SOME) 1 week ago:
You should put as much distance from this fella as possible…
- Comment on Observer 1 week ago:
Magic is just stuff we don’t know but don’t care to know :)
- Comment on Observer 1 week ago:
This is something that I noticed is hard to understand to most people. My SO got served a video of the double slit experiment and thought it was like magic, until I tried to explain to him that at this scale, “observing” doesn’t just mean looking at it. Observation makes you part of the system and causes the system to change.
- Comment on Am I stroking it in my sleep? 1 week ago:
Imagine you kicked a partner in the neck while sleeping. That would be fun.
- Comment on Pope funeral 'is being rehearsed': Swiss Guard 'prepare for pontiff's death after the 88-year-old warned 'I may not survive' pneumonia 2 weeks ago:
The pope has to be Catholic, right?
- Comment on SAB: Russia is building up forces for a confrontation with NATO 2 weeks ago:
That’s why he’s buying soldier slaves from India and North Korea.
- Comment on Pope funeral 'is being rehearsed': Swiss Guard 'prepare for pontiff's death after the 88-year-old warned 'I may not survive' pneumonia 2 weeks ago:
But Trump isn’t even Catholic
- Comment on Russia 'creating database of LGBTQ+ citizens', new report claims 2 weeks ago:
Some people truly believe any deviant behavior is dangerous, specially to children. So they try to convince others if that danger, in an effort to rally troops and support for change.
Also, sexual fredom for gays, might encourage their women to want sexual fredome as well, and that’s bad!
- Comment on ‘It’s like 1948’: Israel cleanses vast West Bank region of nearly all Palestinians 2 weeks ago:
Fair point. With enough money and marketing you can convince anyone to buy some waterfront property, even if crocodile invested.
- Comment on ‘It’s like 1948’: Israel cleanses vast West Bank region of nearly all Palestinians 2 weeks ago:
Btw, besides Israel just wanting to eradicate Palistine, is this land valuable? It looks rather inhospitable.
- Comment on Infinite Hotel Paradox 2 weeks ago:
It would matter in the sense that the time you’d have to wait for a vacant room is between 0 and infinity.
Actually, the time you’d have to wait would be proportional to (rooms / demand), and since both are infinite, that’s undefined. You’d be waiting for undefined time, which IMO is worse than waiting infinite time!
- Comment on Infinite Hotel Paradox 2 weeks ago:
But there’s also infinite demand for rooms, otherwise the hotel would have long gone bankrupt.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Heard a comedian say the other day that hair implants is a form of gender affirming care for cis guys :)
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
I understand that and agree, but in the case of many trans people, they go after medical procedures that go beyond plastic surgery. So I don’t think it’s perfectly comparable with being gay
