Even by Trump’s standards it seems quite unhinged, indeed. Sounds bat shit crazy, tbh.

- Comment on Expecto patronum my ass! 1 week ago:
I’d more likely expect somebody sitting on his ass 5m behind the place where he was when pulling the trigger looking stupid and holding his forearm. I’ve seen smartasses firing regular machine guns like this. No matter how strong you think you are - It just doesn’t work.
- Comment on Beans 1 week ago:
No. Eyes don’t match. So the whole movie monster fails. The terror of cat’s eyes (specifically in the dark, when you can’t determine size and distance of the cat) is hard coded into our brains. An evolutionary thing as “cats” for most of the time used to be on the upper end of the food chain and your chances of reproduction massively raised if you were the first one to spot the cat - and run for your live. Just look at the typical cartoon panel symbolizing the dark and dangerous unknown, a dark place with cat’s eyes looking out. You’ll be subtily terrified - if the shape and proportions match the “cat” scheme.
- Comment on *crunch crunch* Très délicieux mes amis! 2 weeks ago:
Tongue is pure muscle and tastes really nice. It’s also high quality meat from an animal that’s produced for food, so no extra killing or torcherous butchering for it. It just needs to be marinated for a day in salted water to soften before cooking. But since it is -yuck- tongue and needs preparation, mostly the cats get it, nowadays, because it’s easier to just mix it into cat food or dog food.
- Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
I have not doubted that. It has, however., nothimg to do with the kind of cuisine you’d attract Michelin’s attention with. I also know a bit of the more sophisticated American (regional and international) kitchen and it is, IMIO, much better than most people believe. (Piece of cake, because you can get next to everything there.) However, most people also have no idea what the French kitchen or to some extent the more regional parts of the Italian kitchen (or Basque, or Catalan) might be about. I honestly don’t think the US really are playing in that league.

- Comment on Over 300 Malicious Chrome Extensions Caught Leaking or Stealing User Data 2 weeks ago:
Yes. 300 second places, who cares? Maybe there’s an aftermarket for data Google already has stolen. Might be that Google’s prices are too high for resellers.
- Comment on Amazon's Ring and Google's Nest Unwittingly Reveal the Severity of the U.S. Surveillance State 2 weeks ago:
As if this hadn’t been obvious the very moment they started connecting their massive amount of same model cameras to servers under their own regime (aka " the cloud"). And as if nobody told you so.
- Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
America certainly has the most diverse kitchen because it’s a whole fucking continent. It has grasslands, mountains, coasts, lakes, everything and each microclimate you could imagine. I doubt, OTOH, that you’ve ever seen a Michelin rated restaurant from the inside.

Behold the miracle of the slipping clutch, millenials. See It working without being digital and all without an app by the ancient secrets of mechanics!
- Comment on DoorDashers are getting paid to close Waymo's self-driving car doors 3 weeks ago:
Nothing a slipping clutch won’t fix. There already are self-closing doors everywhere. Maybe not in cars but in all sorts of vehicles and everywhere in buildings.
- Comment on Price gouging 3 weeks ago:
The reasonable way would be to do the prototype with a 3D printer, create a mold and cast the metal. This wouldn’t work here either, but if you already have the CAD/CAM file you could just get it milled by a professional CNC outfit. If you’re not too cheap with the steel, it might not even kill you and still cost less than $1600. OTOH, if you can afford a helicopter that shouldn’t be an argument for you. Half an hour in the air will cost you more than that.

I came out in 1969, too and vaguely remember having seen something like double-sized legos somewhere. No idea where or when. They seem to have come out of fashion pretty soon.
- Comment on This guy gets it 3 weeks ago:
The summary about Schopenhauer also doesn’t sound very informed to me. More like written by somebody with strong opinions about everything, no knowledge of anything and too lazy to do any research. And right so. Understanding what you’re talking about just keeps you from posting “interesting” things like the nonsense claim of Schopenhauer being “not a good philosopher”. Actually, Schopenhauer undisputedly was the best philosopher ever, his world records on 500 meters hermeneutics and full-contact ethics where he single-handedly kicked all three Anglican arch bishops out of the ring are still unbroken.

Meta got sued and had to pay €1,500 per user in a ruling of a supreme state court which can’t be appealed. There’s a wave of lawsuits expected to follow because this actually means every Facebook user (for now, it might be possible that non-users whose data were also collected will sue, too) can easily sue now. I remember Meta boasting to have the data of some 10M Germans for targeted advertising. Unfortunately that’s hardly robust evidence but I hope they’ll sue them to hell and back.

You can vote me down as much as you want. You still have no clue of chemistry - or anything else you’re babbling about. Morons.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 5 weeks ago:
None of the things you’ve described increase the carbon output.
Right. Because none of it is a fucking coal mine. Which is the only thing that can provide “carbon output”. Except a diamond mine, of course.
- Comment on New York Startup Builds Fridge-Sized Machine That Can Turn Air Into Gasoline 5 weeks ago:
There is no such thing as “carbon neutral”. Nor is there a problem with carbon. You’re talking about carbon dioxide which is as close to carbon as table salt is to chlorine.
- Comment on RAM Prices Got You Down? Try DDR3. Seriously! 5 weeks ago:
These server boards are usually the same as scientific and engineering workstation boars. They’re pretty good if you put the right CPU in. Xeon or i7 4770 and you’ll get a quite useable workstation out of them.
- Comment on RAM Prices Got You Down? Try DDR3. Seriously! 5 weeks ago:
Non-gamers only. I recently replaced my mobo by a slightly older (the model, the board itself was brand new) industrial PC board. 32GB DDR3, NVidia Quadro K2200, 2 x gigabit ethernet, USB 3.1, five serial ports, three programmable digital IO ports, hardware watchdog, i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40GHz. It’s a Loonix machine and I don’t use it for gaming but I do a lot of animation, video editing, µcontroller programming and 3D-modelling with it. Super reliable, fast enough for most stuff. If I need more raytracing power, I just cluster it with my Lenovo p15.
