- Comment on Instagram is using AI to find teens lying about their age and restricting their accounts 1 day ago:
My point was more that they will believe they have created a scalpel but it’s actually a cudgel. They aren’t as clever as they think they are and will mess up here.
- Comment on Instagram is using AI to find teens lying about their age and restricting their accounts 2 days ago:
I hadn’t considered that, but looking at Elon as an example, yes, this is likely.
- Comment on Instagram is using AI to find teens lying about their age and restricting their accounts 2 days ago:
I have no faith in their AI efforts. They are going to flag so many random accounts.

It’s a high-crime high-drug use area. This policy is on purpose. His needs are secondary to their security.
- Comment on Americans Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks Loose 1 week ago:
Maybe the manager has no choice and my brother is an insecure idiot who made his insides become other people’s problem.
- Comment on Americans Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks Loose 1 week ago:
My question was rhetorical. The point is that many people have very poor financial decision making skills.
- Comment on Americans Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks Loose 1 week ago:
You remind me of my brother. He was taking a medication that caused some intestinal issues. While going to my sister’s wedding, he stopped at a Safeway and asked to use the bathroom. The manager said that it is closed after 9:00 so my brother went back to his car, got a roll of toilet paper, then went back to the entrance of Safeway and pooped inside. He needed to project his internal feelings at other people or the places and was actually proud of himself. This is one of many reasons that I keep a polite distance from him. There are far better ways to interact with the world, and that starts with figuring out what triggers feelings of insecurity and working on them.

No. I want you to feel better.
- Comment on Americans Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks Loose 1 week ago:
Again where are people getting that sort of money?
- Comment on Americans Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks Loose 1 week ago:
I know that you feel insecure. I see you. It’s ok, but you can get through life without lashing out.
- Comment on Americans Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks Loose 1 week ago:
LOL I love this idea that some men with guns can stand up to some dude in a mountain flying a drone.
- Comment on Americans Are Preparing for When All Hell Breaks Loose 1 week ago:
Where do people get the money to stock up on guns? They are friggin expensive.

LOL at that first person taking the bait (or being a bot).
- Comment on If restaurants just microwave their food can I just get the frozen version and cut out the middle man? 2 weeks ago:
The ones sold in supermarkets are not the same as what are distributed to restaurants. Plus, you don’t have the right equipment to make it the same way as the restaurant.
- Comment on Important information about compatibility of Nintendo Switch games with Nintendo Switch 2 3 weeks ago:
The ones that require you to insert the switch into them make sense. There are no excuses for the remainder.

Aren’t you enjoying your lower egg and gas prices? Thanks Daddy Trump.
- Comment on Roman numerals could be based on what your hand looks like when you count. 3 weeks ago:
Masters in classics here. They literally are, even the number 4. Look at a watch with Roman numerals and notice that the 4 is “IIII”.
I = 1 finger … V = open hand … X = two open hands next to each other
- Comment on Trump threatens 'far larger' tariffs if EU and Canada unite to do 'economic harm' to the U.S. 3 weeks ago:
Someone like 40 years ago told him what they are. He did not understand and keep repeating the mistake.
- Comment on YSK that in the US, denaturalization, the process of revoking a person's citizenship, does not require proof "Beyond reasonable doubt" 4 weeks ago:
Reasonable doubt applies to criminal law. Civil law only requires the preponderance of evidence.

Error: fountain pen not found
- Comment on Trump has pummelled America to the edge of recession. It could destroy his dreams 4 weeks ago:
More and more, I think that someone some decades ago explained tariffs to Trump and he did not understand the explanation. He has since been living his own head cannon.
- Comment on Millennials are watching monthly student loan payments skyrocket from $500 to $5000 under Trump: This will ‘crash the economy’ 4 weeks ago:
I made up a number when I said 10–it was rhetorical. But from your own story, you’re looking at 5 before you’re making the money.

lol tell that to my angry brothers who work in construction. they were so antiunion and it hurt them
- Comment on Millennials are watching monthly student loan payments skyrocket from $500 to $5000 under Trump: This will ‘crash the economy’ 5 weeks ago:
True, but that might take you 10 years to get to a point where you’re no longer the new person and have skills to back it up.
- Comment on Millennials are watching monthly student loan payments skyrocket from $500 to $5000 under Trump: This will ‘crash the economy’ 5 weeks ago:
There are no cheaper schools. There are expensive ones and more expensive ones. There is literally no option for the non-rich except to go into debt or learn to be a plumber.

- Comment on why was 1995 video games console very pixel art graphics but music was high quality and images were great??, 1 month ago:
TLDR; these had built in musical synthesizers. Same sorts of chips you’d find in electronic keyboards. You don’t have to record the sound, just the instruction for the chip to play the sound you want.
