  Everyone here is talking about how not having eyelids is messed up while I think being able to rotate your eyes either completely upward or completely forward is crazy!

  (Also having no eyelids to protect against the aggressive blinding lights of your predators/prey probably beats having your eyes destroyed by said predators/preys toxin spewing tentacles any day if the week!)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But yes.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless you WANT your transistor to be this way and use it so you put an actual led inside the plastic as well to mess with (i.e. turn on and off) the transistor!

  Also I would argue that wind could also be considered ‘steam’ turning a turbine. It’s just vapour pressure ‘steam’ with a LOT of other pollutants which somehow increase the efficiency!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's a learning exercise⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also they are all way too spaced out! Every good physics teacher should know that the objects should really be touching before impact to properly transmit the energy of the impact…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ah yes, regression⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Fine! I’ll use a second order polynomial to fit this instead. But that’s the last order I’m willing to go to!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bees⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Just because you waste 80% of the food you get doesn’t mean you can’t still be twice as fast as everyone else at getting new food!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Platypuses⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  May they said it “twice” because they actually fluoresce under green light as well?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Button⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Only if it meant more cocaine because it needs to be redone…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When A.I.’s Output Is a Threat to A.I. Itself | As A.I.-generated data becomes harder to detect, it’s increasingly likely to be ingested by future A.I., leading to worse results.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No don’t listen to them!

  Keikaku means cake! (Muffin to be precise, because we got the muffin button!)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Recommendation engine: Downvote any game you've heard of before⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Didn’t one of the original devs die and his son “take over” for a last few polishing updates/as a memorial?

  Or was that another “small” game series? 🙈

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PSA: Libraries⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Also some of them close to me allow you to rent/lend actual telescopes with a library card!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #2933: Elementary Physics Paths⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And then even when you try to peer behind the definition of “nothing” with math all you are greeted with is infinities which we handily just swept under the rug and pretended to be zero so we could define a “nothing” state in the first place!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A YouTuber let the Cybertruck close on his finger to test the new sensor update. It didn't go well.⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait what? Are there actually elevators “programmed” this way‽ (can this behavior even be changed in the controller?)

  Because I have never “tested” this behavior per se (I mean you mostly want your elevator to move anyway so you ideally remove the obstruction the first time it didn’t fully close…)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨don't listen to big gravity!!!!!⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And then you start winning nobel prizes!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can I Put it in my Ass?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait we slicin’ them now?

  I am apparently so behind…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Italian herbs and spices⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So subduction zones don’t count as “folding” anymore?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anthropology⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not a Czech but now that you mentioned it I want this here too!

  I mean have you tried counting from either end using all your fingers i.e. thumb == 1? That dexterous shit is hard so making a single index finger two instantly makes it nice and smooth!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can I lick it?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  But would it be elemental prior to licking or oxidized as usual? Because one is still significantly worse than the other and looking at lithium very much suggests elemental uranium!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Overclocking gone wild⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just as soon as it hits operating temperature it’ll ignite and woosh!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is the word for someone who is friends with different groups but doesn't have loyalty to any one group?⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I heard them called “bats” because they flap around between different groups and are associated with darkness thus “shady”!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Our Whole Life, Just For This Moment⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait which part? (Also don’t get too explicit because NSFW and also that’ll kill the fun)

  Cause I can’t currently imagine which part exactly you say is kinda like sand… (Granted in a bag)
