- Comment on Pasteurization means that most commercially sold milk is technically Evaporated Milk. 3 weeks ago:
How so? Pasteurization is heating, not distillation.
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
Or it’s a contrived post with fake data
- Comment on Civilization VI: Just another knowledge check 4X game 1 month ago:
Just like how you had to know to Radio->Ideology in Civilization V, or that Great Scientists, Engineers, and Merchants are pooled together and so Merchants harm your science and production
Wait what!? Great people are pooled together!? No wonder I suck at civilization!
- Comment on TSMC execs allegedly dismissed Sam Altman as ‘podcasting bro’ — OpenAI CEO made absurd requests for 36 fabs for $7 trillion 1 month ago:
Yes I think your right
- Comment on TSMC execs allegedly dismissed Sam Altman as ‘podcasting bro’ — OpenAI CEO made absurd requests for 36 fabs for $7 trillion 1 month ago:
I know musk is bipolar. Is Altman too?
Bipolar can cause this kind of request. It’s called a delusion of grandiosity.
- Comment on Is martial arts really that useful? 1 month ago:
The groin strike rule was repealed for a time. BJJ still dominated.
I’m not a martial arts person. I couldn’t care less. But it’s weird how vigorously people will argue against what seems self evident in the closest things we have to a no holds barred setting.
- Comment on Best phone sync 1 month ago:
That’s a good call out. My user case allows me to terminate the phone app after it syncs, and battery doesn’t seem to be hit hard even if I forget. But it’s important to look at, and it might not work for you.
- Comment on Best phone sync 1 month ago:
Resilio sync is outstanding
It’s free for personal use, but the license process is annoying (email)
- Comment on Is martial arts really that useful? 1 month ago:
They didn’t have many at the beginning. Which rule during the rise of BJJ do you think affected it being dominant?
- Comment on Is martial arts really that useful? 1 month ago:
If you want to know what world, look at MMA.
Brazilian jiu jitsu is basically the only credible form of what most people mean when they say “martial arts” (meaning Asian origin with some kind of progression, often with belts).
China is so salty that karate can’t survive the age of the Internet they are blackballing it’s critics.
Search for “bullshido” if you want some egregious examples
- Comment on Big Lots files for bankruptcy protection, sells to private equity firm as it promises to keep offering 'extreme bargains' 1 month ago:
They are the vampire squid wrapped around the head of the American economy, repeatedly thrusting their blood funnel into its face.

What does that headline even mean? Good lord.
- Comment on Moms, I you were struggling with your child in public and a man offered to help, would you let him and why? 3 months ago:
“Where are your parents?” the man asked the little girl, as he cut off the direction she was walking
I don’t want that to be a narrative that any person can ever tell about me. It could be a totally innocent act, but a sinister framing is easy to assume and impossible to refute.
Hard pass.
- Comment on Moms, I you were struggling with your child in public and a man offered to help, would you let him and why? 3 months ago:
Yeah, it’s totally reasonable. But I’m the current climate I’m not blocking any person’s kid unless they’re going in front of an oncoming train.
- Comment on Moms, I you were struggling with your child in public and a man offered to help, would you let him and why? 3 months ago:
I am more likely to get in their way and ask them where their parents are.
I was with you until that last sentence.
- Comment on Google Is the Only Search Engine That Works on Reddit Now Thanks to AI Deal 3 months ago:
Seems anticompetitive
- Comment on Google URL Shortener Links Will Return a 404 Response 3 months ago:
What sucks is linkrot on older pages
Supporting it basically just means maintaining a database table. So yeah, I think they should support them. Or at least publish the table!
- Comment on When people say two things "cannot be compared", they had to compare them to come to this conclusion. Are 'dissimilar' or 'unequal' better words? 3 months ago:
Where did you get your definition of “equivocating”?
- Comment on Capturing CO2 With Copper, Scientists Generate 'Green Methane' 3 months ago:
Making more methane seems like a risky option, given its role in climate change.
- Comment on Signal under fire for storing encryption keys in plaintext 4 months ago:
Agreed
But you can’t have privacy without security, and any privacy brand must have security in their bones.
- Comment on Signal under fire for storing encryption keys in plaintext 4 months ago:
It is a super important detail, but it’s still unforgivable for an app that expects privacy to be part of its brand identity.
- Comment on why isn't anyone calling for Trump to drop out. 4 months ago:
Because nobody expected him to do anything but lie through his teeth and shit his pants.
Check and check.
- Comment on What happens if Biden dies before the next inauguration (see inside)? 4 months ago:
Because if Trump dies then we have a lot less to worry about
- Comment on Manifesto for a Humane Web 4 months ago:
How do you make it safe and inviting while also protecting anonymity?
Some anonymous users are prone to pretty awful behavior, and non anonymous users will be profiled.
- Comment on China is attempting to mirror the entire GitHub over to their own servers, users report 4 months ago:
China filters every byte of Internet traffic in and out of the country.
It seems naive to think they can’t accomplish the same thing for a GitHub mirror.
- Comment on China is attempting to mirror the entire GitHub over to their own servers, users report 4 months ago:
That’s the whole point of this: they will automatically filter that out, and this is an impotent, though well intended, gesture.
- Comment on Is there any real physical proof that Jesus christ ever existed? 4 months ago:
Bones prove you existed.
But the absence of bones does not mean that you didn’t.
- Comment on Rare ‘flesh-eating bacteria’ that can kill in 2 days spreads in Japan: Will it affect the rest of the world? 4 months ago:
Not really. Step can exist in the environment, which is why there can be sporadic infections.
There won’t be a pandemic of this, but it can absolutely spread, and we should try to prevent that from happening.
