- Comment on Designed by men, for men: Why sex with robots does not have appeal among women 1 month ago:
Colloquially, the word “robot” always implies a certain amount of anthropomorphism. So no, I don’t think a vibrator would count, as basically no vibrators on the market try to look human-like.
But that definitely is a weird difference between male and female sexuality - the sex toys women buy most are the very effective and utilitarian ones: Vibrator wands, Rabbits, Air pulse Vibrators etc.
While the most popular tools for men tend to focus on “realism”(?): Fleshlights, Sex Dolls, things like VR and POV porn. And I guess sex robots would fall into that category too in the future.
I can absolutely see the weirdness-factor of someone who is desperately trying to emulate a partner rather than just accept masturbation as a solo activity and optimize it from there 😬

Sure, I’ll snap a few if Revy wants to hang out with me tonight! :)
- Comment on Do snakes prefer to drink warm or cool water? 1 month ago:
I always refill my snake’s water dish with cold (so like 10°C) water, just so that she has the option to drink it cold if she wants to, or wait for it to get to room temperature.
Usually, she just goes up to the fresh water, tongue flicks on the surface, then ignores it for several hours. No idea if that means that she doesn’t like it cold. She could just be not thirsty at all but intrigued by the dish moving back into her space (I always change it while she’s looking, so that she knows what’s going on and isn’t startled by me moving it in or out).

Even better, imagine being a 35-year old streamer with a kid, and other parents at the preschool ask you about your job.

It’s a great strategy, but exclusively for software engineering. Weird tech bros who want to run the world like a software company inherently don’t understand that fact.

He was pressuring his employees to go faster with testing and development, as their competitor (I believe it was Synchron) got approved for human trials way faster.
Well, “move fast and break things” isn’t really a good mindset while performing animal trials, and after about 1500 deaths, many due to botched and rushed brain surgery, the research facility actually got audited for animal cruelty allegations (which happens SO rarely because the law basically allows anything when you say it’s “research”).
