- Comment on Evidence seems to indicate that research causes cancer in mice. 15 hours ago:
The sad part is that you’re not too far off from many fields of research. For example, research in neurodegenerative diseases in humans tested on mouse models means acquiring mice with diseases that they can’t get. So, you instead use gene-edited or generically engineered mice that are designed to exhibit all of the symptoms of a human neurodegenerative disease, and then try changing those symptoms in the mice in hopes that you’ll learn something that can be translated to humans.

- Comment on xkcd #3214: Electric Vehicles 19 hours ago:
To point 5: there are companies that sell electric crate motors, pre-configured to couple with your transmission’s bell housing. Hell, some of these companies sell the entire conversation kit, or will do the entire conversation for you. These conversions give you a completely offline electric car that keeps an older car from going to a junkyard, and reduces the materials needed for an updated car on the road. Also, if someone is concerned that a new electric car has the same carbon footprint as an internal combustion vehicle, recycled and reclaimed batteries are an incredible option.
If you’re going to do one of these conversions on a standard transmission car, you’ll probably want to pay some professionals anyway to tune it so that you don’t shred your clutch when you shift. I almost did this with my old '95 Explorer, but it had some suspension issues that I wasn’t willing to tackle at the same time. Plus, my neighbor told me that one of his friends had their car destroyed in a flood, but talked about how they always wanted a classic Explorer in exactly my color, so I gave it to her.

In fairness, I only bought the shirt in my size so that it would be comfortable for her to sleep in. I never actually planned to wear it. Shame that it’s a fucking Disturbed shirt and that I wanna set fire to it.

Oh, fuck your profile pic so fucking hard, you bastard.
For the more reasonable part of my comment: I think that basing the article around the privacy dots is either meant to scare-bait, or reduce complacency in iOS users who say that “I know my phone is safe because it tells me when it’s recording me.”
