Yeah I was gonna say, one of the defining features of the large sauropods was a low body density due to the air sacks in their huge necks and hollow bones. Those adaptations were likely required to achieve their size. So you have a really big animal with relatively low density and high surface area, that thing is going right up into the sky and getting smashed to bits when it lands.

There’s no way our bodies are “supposed” to be. There’s the way they are and the way they were. Also some brave and dedicated individuals can apparently overcome lactose intolerance through exposure therapy. Basically they eat a bunch of dairy every day for weeks until their gut biome readjusts to digest lactose without all the discomfort. Apparently the gas and bloating are caused by the overgrowth of some bacteria and it just takes some time to find a new equilibrium so you don’t get big blooms every time you eat lactose.

Why does a capitalist apologist pop up every time people point out their shitty behavior? In fact he didn’t have to lay a bunch of people off, he could have cut costs in other ways, such as, oh idk, his own ridiculous pay package. These people only fucking care about themselves. They would sell you out for a cup of coffee. Why do you insist on running interference for them and whitewashing their greedy antisocial behavior?

Lower? Bitch if we stop being a world power our standard of living will probably get higher. We can stop wasting all our resources on the military and propping up stupid shit and actually get some fucking healthcare.
- Comment on Its all the phone and communists fault 1 week ago:
I think at this point capitalism is so close to the source of all our problems it’s probably impossible to find an issue that hasn’t been made much worse by it if it isn’t the direct cause to begin with.

You were implying that some people these days think lack of helicopter parenting is neglect. I wasn’t saying it is, I was in fact refuting that position. It would whoever be considered neglect if someone was never around their kids. You know what they say, the dose makes the poison.
- Comment on Soft 1 week ago:
There are different kinds of neglect besides not being physically colocated. Ignoring your childs needs for example. Some parents may spend nearly all of their time around their children, but never do anything to address their emotional needs, or even actively suppress them. As a child I was often punished or denigrated for having and expressing strong emotions that were inconvenient for my parents, to the point I felt like they didn’t want me to have emotions at all. Some parents neglect their children’s sensory needs, sanitary needs, hunger, thirst, need for sleep, need for solitude, need for play, need for socialization, need for autonomy, need for learning, need for structure, or whatever else. I would argue helicopter parents usually neglect a number of their child’s emotional needs and treat their children more like a doll or pet than a whole person they are responsible for raising into an adult.

I was worried about this same exact thing happening, so I buckled down, pulled as hard as I could on my boot straps, did the work of 4 people for a few months, then quit without notice. I was the only person left on my team at the time so I’m sure they’re scrambling lol.

They kept stopping to fuck around. Stopping on random planets to find food, stopping on random planets to talk with new aliens, stopping at random anomalies to investigate, stopping so Chakote could do some stupid made up ritual.

It’s more like they’re taking an overly literal interpretation of highly abstracted and complex math. Some physicists want the universe to be mysterious and strange, but that holds them back from seeing the deeper mysteries and strangeness because they get stuck on their pet interpretation.
- Comment on Hisense TVs force owners to watch intrusive ads when switching inputs, visiting the home screen, or even changing channels — practice infuriates consumers, brand denies wrongdoing 3 weeks ago:
They’re saying the company may be selling the device for less than the cost to produce it expecting the low price to draw in consumers while their predatory ads rake in much more money, so buying it and never connecting it means they took a loss. I’m skeptical that companies would do that these days. More likely they overcharge for the physical hardware AND have predatory ad software, you know to maximize shareholder value.

Really it was a time issue. Even if you assume the hobbits of the Shire had both the technological capacity to create a functional guided rocket and the industrial capacity to manufacture it ready to go, it takes around about a decade to bring a rocket development program from conception through to completion, even optimistically. Factor in the fact that there’s a single unique and irreplaceable payload and if you fail to hit the target you’ve basically delivered the ring to Sauron, given it’s apparent indestructibility, the reliability requirements would push the development time back a lot. It might take 20 or 30 years for the rocket to truly be ready for that mission. They were only able to confirm that what they’ve found actually is the one ring less than a couple years from when Sauron would have invaded everyone, so even with the most optimistic possible appraisal of the military industrial complex of the free peoples of Middle Earth there simply wasn’t time. It’s one of those projects where throwing more bodies at it just slows things down.

I wish they didn’t feel the need to fake it with upscaling. In my experience upscaling looks like shit every time, whether it’s a video or game. Most of the time a good 1080p video with good bit rate will look way better than a 4k upscale.

Your math is wrong. If you want the creator to still get $5 with apple stealing 30% you would need to pay ~43% extra.
$5/0.7 = $7.14
1/0.7 = 1.42857

Ah I see so she not only gets to continue to benefit personally from the unearned wealth she’s hoarding, but also gets to commit further exploitation to steal yet more wealth from the working class and redistribute it unilaterally however she sees fit, just because she gives some of it to charity. Are you not aware that most if not all of the charities rich people donate to are really just a tax dodge, and the charity itself only serves to promote the political interests of the billionaires that fund them? I guess not because you can see the nuance in being an evil wealth hoarding dragon but not in “donating” to “charity”. Educate yourself first before you try to educate others chucklefuck. You’ll look like less of a naive dipshit.
