HOLY SHIT IS THAT A HEADPHONE JACK?!
Seriously this ticks boxes Ive given up on. I never thought Id see a phone with all three: waterproof, removable battery, headphone jack. It even has wireless charging which isnt really one of my boxes but is a little extra if you use it.
- Comment on nooo my genderinos 5 days ago:
The whole new math everyone was complaining about is trying to do this. Granted teachers are human and flawed so sometimes it has not been implemented well, but it is aimed in the right direction.
I am absolutely going to start responding to questions / statements about gender with this concept though.
“There are only two genders”
“Yeah, and there are only 3 states of matter! These woke scientists with their DEI alphabet soup of mattet B-E Condensates, and QSL, and DEGERATE MATTER! Its suck intell you”

I wasnt really aware of Moomin until meeting my Finnish sister in law, so I dont have the deep roots to the 90 cartoon.

- Comment on Why do people like the Punisher comics? 3 weeks ago:
I didn’t get to get a lot of comics as a kid. I got punisher because they tended to be more insular. I borrowed friends/relatives Carnage comics but never got to finish the run. I couldn’t get into fantastic 4 partly because there were so many iterations, and some of those I would get the lecture of ‘well you really gotta start here and this references this story line from 5 years ago’.
Punisher was simple action and tended to have shorter story lines.

its really not, we just have cowards who are afraid of the word regulation running the government.
- Comment on Trump vows huge new China tariffs as markets nosedive 4 months ago:
Higher quality? Not likely. Actually available Id give you. We don’t have the equipment to make a lot of the stuff china can make. If we can make it, its probably on newer machines with better tolerances. This is a sweeping generality of course but so is the contrary claim.
Ive been to manufacturing sites in china, Ive outsourced sub-assemblies. They have a lot of capabilities. The US still (for now) has more sophistication/infrastructure. Given proper controls, Chinese manufacturers can match our quality for cheaper, it is a lot of work though.

Its bioengineered, no way he would go for it. Only organic brainworms for our homeopath in chief.
- Comment on Trump says Ukraine started the war that's killing its citizens. What are the facts? 5 months ago:
Per NATO rules, Ukraine was not eligible to join due to the 2014 invasion by Russia as that was considered a border dispute. Prior to that they weren’t really trying due to Russian influence/ corruption of Yanakovich etc.
As far as avoiding the conflict, Obama absolutely should have taken a harder stance on Crimea and Donbas. Before that Bush should have taken a harder stance against the Russian invasion of Georgia. They were essentially taking an appeasement approach and trying not to get pulled into war with Russia.

what is the mass arbitration lawsuit about? Is it, as dual_sport_dork’s article suggests, an antitrust lawsuit? If that is the case… I’d rather claw back the ability to sue directly (small claims, yay!). If valve is accused of something else Id love to hear about it.
