  I think I get what you’re trying to say, that non-genital features are more aesthetically pleasing. That genitals aren’t that often featured in art. We usually don’t go “wow those are some pretty genitals, damn”.

  But, it’s also just your brain that tells you that the other parts are pretty. I bet all of them would look weird to an alien. It’s just your brain telling you what to like

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[Any Austin] Do Red Dead Redemption 2's Power Lines Connect to Anything?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  TL;DW is they connect to a power plant and they have a map-wide grid, but then it turns out that it doesn’t make sense, given the historical setting

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proportional reaction⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  This is Rust syntax, but there’s similar syntax in Haskell

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proportional reaction⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  List comprehension is another thing I don’t like about Python :)

  There’s more of those, but one thing I do like about Python is that I get paid for writing it, so I try not to complain too much

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proportional reaction⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  What I like about using if and else for that is that you’re already using those keywords for branching in other parts of the code.

  Though my least favorite is probably Python’s:

  x = "foo" if y > 5 else "bar"
  

  It just seems backwards to me

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proportional reaction⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  x = if y > 5 { "foo" } else { "bar" }
  

  This is just superior to anything else

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨xkcd #3141: Mantle Model⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m with you on that one. I don’t care what the scientists say, there’s no way quantum physics is random, we just don’t know where to look yet. And entanglement? Nah, you made this one up.

  Anyway, I didn’t get into a university, but I’m not bitter about it, no.

  I don’t want my genitals cut off and eaten, don’t know about you

  Spoilers I guess

  IIRC they were made to look like humans so that later human souls can take over those bodies, to avoid a total human extinction due to some virus. But the clothes? Uhhh idk ¯\(ツ)/¯

  A moment of silence for all those who sacrificed themselves in the name of science

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨if "you are what you eat", and you only eat vegans, you're both vegan and not at the same time⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If vegans eat only plants, that makes them plants, thus if you eat them you are still just vegan, because you as well eat only plants.

  Happy to help

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are you fucking kidding me??⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, you obviously should have typed “E = mc2 + AI” smh

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have you know???.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  No, they just imagined ~800 tits. Maybe even at once.

  The image in the post also uses watts where watt-hours might be more applicable, so we are already more in the realm of memes than science

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If I invented a shirt that caused cameras to be damaged when filmed/photographed, would I be committing a crime by wearing the shirt at events with cameras?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There, technically, hypothetically, could be a situation where such shirt is possible. But it would require a bug in the camera firmware, which would probably work on just one camera model. For example, a shirt with a pattern that tricks the camera into detecting more faces than it was designed to, causing a buffer overflow and a crash. Reasonable, although extremely unlikely

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Begun the kernel wars have⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s what I’ve noticed as well. They keep the old stuff around for as long as they can, because some software made 30years ago is critical to our society so they need to support it or we’re doomed

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Begun the kernel wars have⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep, they’re planning to create a new way to do it, not disable the old way.
  And I think that a decade for disabling the old way is optimistic
