The only thing that might predispose women is when they get pregnant. Most forms of hunting don’t require excessive strength. This is not speculation, prehistoric people do not give a shit about your value system or how it imposes itself on science. Animals in animal world be animals.

They are, however, exceptionally adept at political speechwriting.
- Comment on Indiana Jones doesn't "endorse" Nazis, Bethesda assure, just in case you were confused by him repeatedly murdering them 4 weeks ago:
If they think that, they may have a problem with what they consider glorified. They may want to avoid recognizing parallels that are far more personal to them.

Germany be like, “Nazi symbols, NEIN!”, showing it is totally not missing the point, specially given whom they support.

- Comment on Elon Musk Fans Are Losing So Much Money to Crypto Scams 5 weeks ago:
The people that end up cashing in from those scams are the same people that end up supporting Trump & Musk.

He’s literally doing the same thing the platform owners are.
- Comment on The EchoChamberinator 9000! 5 weeks ago:
Social networks are crazy. It’s like they appeared and suddenly journalistic integrity does not matter anymore because your easily shaped feelings is equal to their fact.
- Comment on Coming on Lemmy and complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers 5 weeks ago:
Oh, I’m sorry about the Linux thing, Russia.
- Comment on REPORT: Arm is sensationally canceling the license that allowed Qualcomm to make Snapdragon chips which power everything from Microsoft's Copilot+ PCs to Samsung's Galaxy smartphones and tablets 1 month ago:
The amount of IP money grubbing in the IT industry is able to literally make millions out of sand, this is just more of it.
- Comment on So tired to see Elon Musk in my home page EVERY DAY 1 month ago:
He’s one of the richest yet divisive billionaires in the world who is putting his foot in the door in regards to social network, electric cars, and space travel, what did you expect? “I want to know about technology, but I also want to ignore this huge elephant in the room shitting on me.”
- Comment on I investigated millions of tweets from the Kremlin’s ‘troll factory’ and discovered classic propaganda techniques reimagined for the social media age. 1 month ago:
People complain about Russian troll factories, but hey, they are helping develop a reddit alternative so they can’t be all that bad.
- Comment on Men Harassed A Woman In A Driverless Waymo, Trapping Her In Traffic 2 months ago:
I can see criminals easily exploiting this default behavior to stop the car and steal from those inside.
Where’s a Johnny cab when you need it, it knows how to deal with criminals.
- Comment on Nintendo Is Now Going After YouTube Accounts Which Show Its Games Being Emulated 2 months ago:
A lot of those emulators, specially the SNES ones, make games better if not outright bearable. There’s a lot of games that I could not have completed without spending an absurd amount of time on them without saved states. The Nintendo games out there aren’t even exceptionally good, there are plenty of indie alternatives if people give them a chance. It’s biggest plus is that the brand does act in a way many AAA publishers fail to do, an assurance of a basic degree of quality.
- Comment on Reddit is making sitewide protests basically impossible 2 months ago:
It’s possible but reddit isn’t the only one looking for engagement, so are individual users. If a site has more users, it has more engagement and content. It is also not impossible to drop the lemmy name when you do go back there to make people aware of the alternative.
- Comment on Reddit is making sitewide protests basically impossible 2 months ago:
So rather than allow subs to remain preserved while the replace the mods in place they will push subs to shit on themselves in this latest bout of enshittification.
- Comment on If Trump loses the election and flees to another country to avoid his sentencing in his (multiple) lawsuits, does the Secret Service have to go with him? 2 months ago:
But those lawsuits aren’t at the federal level, they are at the state level, or so I understand. The secret service operates at the federal level.
- Comment on Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it 2 months ago:
Oh no! You’ve got trapped in the first level of nested parenthesis! To get out, you need to go down two levels to where I was trapped, and here’s the tricky part, you have to make sure you leave with the correct number of parenthesis and then you are out ok.
- Comment on Smart TVs take snapshots of what you watch multiple times per second 2 months ago:
If I ever have to get a new one, I will madboi it with a monitor and decoder.
- Comment on Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it 2 months ago:
Listen to ugly people music (or vtuber music, same thing (na, just kidding around with vtuber insecurities (help I’m trapped inside this nested parenthesis)))
- Comment on OpenAI Execs Mass Quit as Company Removes Control From Non-Profit Board and Hands It to Sam Altman 2 months ago:
They could make their own AI CEO and work for it. It would probably have more integrity and personality, too.
- Comment on Smart TVs take snapshots of what you watch multiple times per second 2 months ago:
Don’t buy them, they are excessively expensive and tt’s a better idea to separate the smart functionality into an HDMI device of your choice anyway.
- Comment on Crypto bros have discovered idle games, and the results are incredibly boring 2 months ago:
The problem is the monopoly money is being used in a confidence game that’s being permitted by governments because all they see are more potentially taxable transactions and don’t give a shit about what this means for the longterm health of our societies.
- Comment on Another job lost because of technology 👿 2 months ago:
The irony being how much the standard quality of life has dropped compared to the people seen working in this photo. At some point, expect to be just another pest barely tolerated within the urban environment. For many homeless, that’s what they already are.
- Comment on YouTube confirms your pause screen is now fair game for ads 2 months ago:
I should have opened the article, that’s a lot less intrusive than what I thought. If this is the extent of it, and frankly considering that Google let’s you opt out of personalized tracking when many sites have begun forcing them onto users and forcing me to constantly clear their cookies, that makes me a lot less mad with them.
- Comment on YouTube confirms your pause screen is now fair game for ads 2 months ago:
I wonder what made their leadership continue to escalate into increasingly bullshit decisions. What happens if I need to pause because I need my PC to be quiet so I can address something and still an ad suddenly starts playing? I’ll tell you what happens, I’ll either find some way to disable that from happening, switch to a service that doesn’t do it if I can, or just begin avoiding it all together. Brilliant planing, YouTube. Whoever has been left as its leadership is a dumbass.

Plenty of children movies appeal to both demographics. LTT’s most recent stream passed some good ideas around about what would have made a better movie.
- Comment on Climate scientists flee Twitter as hostility surges 2 months ago:
X needs to start getting banned by governments and official governmental channels need to be moving out.
- Comment on When EV startups shut down, will their cars still work? 2 months ago:
Sono Sion shut down, and good luck even getting your money back. Of course and shamelessly, Sono Motors and their CEOs get to continue to cruise through it. Wait EV startups out until they release is my advice, too much of an industry and competing markets locking down the market. The only incentive to purchase into them, paying less, is also what puts them at risk.
- Comment on Israel Is Buying Google Ads to Discredit the UN’s Top Gaza Aid Agency 3 months ago:
Yes, if you redefine the death penalty into being genocide, it is genocide, and if you shift the narrative onto a fictional, you can make it not be about genocide.
Brilliant points …
