How did you break into my house to take this photo?
- Comment on Cultural divide 6 days ago:
It does have to do with different drugs in some cases. Users in a k-hole (high on ketamine) tend to lean back.
- Comment on YSK the Venezuelans community in the US is not representative of Venezuelans as a whole. 1 week ago:
That’s the funny thing about Venezuela. The U.S. criticized Chavez’s election victories. So Chavez put in some of the best election infrastructure in the world. And because of that, it was abundantly clear that Maduro rigged his election.

In political science, we determine the opinion of a populace using something called elections, and well, you can see how that went…

None. God clearly wants her dead and you’re just delaying the inevitable.

- Comment on What’s up with Myrrh being more prevalent? 3 weeks ago:
Someone’s running a pump and dump scheme on Myrrh. Once that bubble pops they just transition to Frankincense like it never happened.

You got a little overzealous with the 9’s there. 10% of taxpayers itemize.

Where’d you get this kidney?
Found it
- Comment on What are your opinions of using Pi-hole for DNS within a homelab environment? 4 weeks ago:
I ran pi-hole on my NAS. Then I pointed my router at it to make it the DNS for my whole network. The only problem was it would create issues when I had a power outage. If things didn’t start up with the right timing they would get wonky and certain devices would report as not having Internet.
That’s why I bought an OpenWRT One so I could install an equivalent to pi-hole on in directly. Though I hit a snag with that and don’t currently have that running.
I haven’t noticed much of a difference without the pi-hole running (my NAS is dead right now). I think some of my devices had their own DNS settings so they weren’t using the config from the router.
- Comment on Word. 4 weeks ago:
Even better, you can create a “Hybrid PDF” which embeds a second copy of the file in ODT format inside the PDF. This makes it re-editable.
Word supports ODT but it doesn’t support reading these ODT files embedded in PDFs though.

- Comment on Microsoft spent two years and $1B developing the Kin mobile phone line, which failed after just 48 days in 2010(May 14-June 30) due to poor sales. They blamed Verizon for not promoting it enough 1 month ago:
The point of the Kin was that it was supposed to create a new service tier in between dumb phones and smart phones with expensive plans. At the time phones came with 2 year contracts that subsidized the cost of the phone. A basic plan came with $175 worth of subsidy which covered a dumb phone. If you added $30/month for unlimited data, you would get $350 off the the up front cost of a smart phone.
Microsoft’s idea was that parents didn’t want to pay that much for a smart phone for their teens. But a teen would get plenty of benefit for a something in between which would allow them to use a non SMS messaging service and browse social media. Plus it had a keyboard.
It’s still Verizon’s fault. But it wasn’t lack of promotion. The Kin didn’t make sense without the accompanying plan.

- Comment on Burger King now selling "Mystery" menus 1 month ago:
I think the lack of veggies is worse than the excess of meat. This way it just sits in your colon causing cancer.
- Comment on Gmail can read your emails and attachments to train its AI, unless you opt out 1 month ago:
I turned it off from that android app and as soon as I returned to the inbox there’s a notification asking me to flip it back.
- Comment on Why isn't it considered vegan to harvest animals who die naturally? 1 month ago:
For the sake of argument I think you could say that you’re depriving a scavenger of a meal. I don’t know if that’s how veganism is usually framed.

- Comment on In the US we have Breast Cancer Awarnes month and a bunch of others. All we do is throw money at a problem and hope it goes away How come the Gov don't take care of people from starving? 2 months ago:
In 2018, SNAP benefits supplied roughly 40 million Americans, at an expenditure of $57.1 billion.[2][3] In 2017, approximately 9.2% of American households obtained SNAP benefits at some point, with approximately 16.7% of all children living in households with SNAP benefits.[2]

In the scheme of things, the interruption of SNAP benefits was a blip. A cruel blip, but I don’t think it’s fair to say we don’t do anything.

- Comment on They even do Price Discrimination on video games now 2 months ago:
I like price discrimination. Price discrimination lets airlines price first class tickets above cost so coach can tickets can be priced at marginal cost. It’s a way to charge the rich more. If you have an extensive library they figure you’re not poor. If your wife’s library is small, they might be guessing that she can’t afford to buy a lot of games.
