  I love heat pumps I love heat pumps I love heat pumps

  (I agree! I do love tech connections. Although I’d argue that knowing how heat pumps work can be quite beneficial ^^ at least in my case)

  Why would anyone want to watch AI generated content? What’s the point? I get using AI generation as a tool but if there’s no human intention behind it, just a pure algorithm, why even bother?

  Frankly, governments should always have gone full Linux. Or other FLOSS alternatives

  I see no reason for preferring corporate controlled services, especially by corporations not in your jurisdiction, to FLOSS that you can have full control over, and in the worst case can take over development or help direct it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chemistry is weird⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I know you wrote H and O, and not H2 and O2, but I’m going to assume the gas forms because those two substances pretty much cannot exist in their pure forms

  And for those, O2 is necessary for our life, and H2 is non-toxic, it’s just very flammable. So I don’t know if the comparison fully works

  Of course, you’re right if you mean pure H and pure O, but, again, they will immediately combine to form a new substance

  Frankly at this point self-diagnosis shouldn’t be as demonized as it is. Because getting a diagnosis is, 1. Expensive, 2. Involved as all hell sometimes, 3. Not all professionals being great, and 4. In certain countries cough the US cough, it gets you literally put on a list

  I say this as someone who is diagnosed. Just preface any statements you make with you not being professionally diagnosed and that you think you might likely have it and such, and you should be fine. Ultimately the point of the diagnosis is to help you. If you feel like the autistic framework is useful to understanding yourself, use it.

  I think nature names are awesome, personally

  …I’m not biased or anything because of my chosen name, nooooo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New Japanese Law Stops Parents From Naming Their Baby 'Pikachu'⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Many names have meanings similar to that, and yet they’re names. I don’t think a name such as khaleesi is inherently bad

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this month⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  As a rule of thumb, there typically are very few people clamoring for volunteer leader positions. It’s a constant problem you see even in irl non-profit organizations, unless they’re fairly big/famous

  It just turns out that, it’s actually just a lot of responsibility and work. Most people realize this, and don’t have the capacity to do the work, so often there even are no candidates for the leader positions… until someone reluctantly steps up because otherwise the organization would die

  At least, that’s my experience in the real life organizations and clubs I’ve volunteered in

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hit it and quit it⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hell yeah. Being a slut is great

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hit it and quit it⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, it is unironically a good question though. There’s no biological reason for why that can’t happen, and in fact, it would be more efficient! You’d be less exposed to predators etc

  The actual answer is, of course, that there are other reasons for why it’s a longer activity. Such as, for example, it being about social bonding

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The solution to many problems⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I never can get anyone to give me a proper definition of processed food that doesn’t include obviously okay stuff like bread or yoghurt. As I wouldn’t call those foods prepared, they’ve been through multiple chemical and biological processes.

  Ultra processes foods is something that tends to be more appropriate I think. That’s stuff like chips or fast food. Though even that I consider fine to eat in moderation, and I, personally, do. Though I agree it would be better if I completely cut those out. I just tend to eat a lot of pre-made foods due to disability reasons (frozen pizzas, pastas, and the like)

  But yeah, I do know that the US has some very lax food laws unfortunately. So maybe that is a big part of the difference

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The solution to many problems⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like this is you fighting phantoms. I highly doubt anyone would want to actively help someone die instead like, referring them to a psychologist or therapist or something

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The solution to many problems⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess it still leaves store-bought bread out I guess. Or yoghurt. Or milk

  But nah, I really do think it’s extreme. Pre-made food isn’t bad for you

  Either that or I’m just being European, idk

  That’s mostly what I was referring to in my latter paragraph, yes

  But the important takeaway is that it’s not the core of what pornography is

  seeing violence is probably worse than seeing sex

  Yes, I mean, one is (ideally) about two (or more) people enjoying time they have together in an intimate way, the other is about hurting another maliciously. I certainly prefer one of these things to be more prominent than the other

  There is a discussion to be had about stuff like objectification and porn that doesn’t depict people like, consenting, and such, but at least in ideal I’d much rather have media that focuses on pleasure and love than hate and suffering

  “you keep messing with that thing and it’ll fall off and you’ll turn into a girl”

  On one hand, fucking horrible thing to say on a child

  On the other… probably would not have the effect they would intend on a certin chunk of the population lmao

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's bad man⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  As you grow you will keep appreciating the growing amounts of personal development

  Eventually you think back to when you were worried about turning 25 and you’ll think “why would I ever wanna be 25 again? I had so much less knowledge and experience back then”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨French culture⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Actually, you’re right, I didn’t even think about it

  If I wrote “I love to read, I read an interesting book every day”, then the way you say the latter ‘read’ shifts from my original example, and it depends on context that comes later in the sentence

  Wack

  I don’t know what they were teaching you at the course, but home/personal IoT was never the most interesting thing in the field. IoT sees a lot more interest and use in industrial application, for example stuff like logistics, farming, automation, measuring, stuff like traffic signals and smart grids, and so on
