Highly recommend it, Tina Fey is an icon. Just beware that you’ll be quoting her character more often than you’ll notice yourself.
- Comment on US grid adds batteries at 10x the rate of natural gas in first half of 2024 2 months ago:
I’d just like to note that a lot of storage technologies that are currently in the pilot project stage are based on using components with existing supply lines to minimize the time and effort needed to scale up production.
- Comment on Why is there no sense of "camaderie" in the workplace? 3 months ago:
Not only that but it makes it easier to care about one another, which gives a greater incentive to unionize.
- Comment on Samsung delivers 600-mile solid-state EV battery as it teases 9-minute charging and 20-year lifespan tech 3 months ago:
Not sure if you’re joking but
Both Toyota and Samsung have vowed to begin mass solid-state battery production in 2027, and Toyota, too, advised that it will be installing them in premium electric cars under the Lexus brand first.
From the article.
- Comment on The second matchup of the tournament 6 months ago:
If you encounter a black bear, make yourself big and threatening. If attacked, fight back.
If you encounter a brown bear, stay facing it but avoid eye contact and back away slowly. If attacked, play dead.
If you encounter a polar bear, pray for a quick death.

It clearly just needs to lose an electron first.
- Comment on Tidal’s subscription is getting simpler and cheaper — yes, you read that right 8 months ago:
At least Spotify and Apple Music don’t
Spotify does have an application for Linux, if you’re gonna harp on about facts you should at least stick to them.

The mathematician misses three feet to the left and the physicist misses three feet to the right. If you take the average of those two, like in statistics, it’s right in the middle and would hit the deer.

What? What are you talking about? I’m confused, are you having an episode?
- Comment on My taste in women be like. 11 months ago:
If this isn’t a fetish, I can assure you that it’s not worth it. Get some friends, a hobby, a bodypillow, and some ethically sourced porn, it’ll save you both your money and your sanity.

I’m confused, did I miss someone mentioning staying in the left lane on the highway?
- Comment on VW Is Putting Buttons Back in Cars Because People Complained Enough 11 months ago:
Did anyone mention driving in the wrong lane?
- Comment on VW Is Putting Buttons Back in Cars Because People Complained Enough 11 months ago:
Problem is when you get passed because other people aren’t driving legally. Even if it’s the flow of traffic, you’re still technically not allowed to break the law.

You should wash under there with lukewarm water or, if you absolutely feel the need to, gentle soap that is specifically made for cleaning your privates. Doing it with regular soap can cause issues.

- Comment on I know it's one of you guys 11 months ago:
Men have a similar, although not as sensitive, environment under their foreskin as women do, so it’s not just the urethra that is the issue. That being said, the consequences of that are usually limited to itchiness and a smell, and not a full-blown infection.

- Comment on Solar energy storage breakthrough could make European households self-sufficient 1 year ago:
Since it’s solid hydrogen I think it’s to be expected, however I didn’t see any information regarding energy losses which I imagine would be quite high when you have those kinds of cooling requirements.
- Comment on Solar energy storage breakthrough could make European households self-sufficient 1 year ago:
According to their site:
A storage system of 3 m3 can store up to 10,000 kWh of energy
So about 3.33 MWh per cubic meter, 3.33 kWh per liter, or 3.33 Wh per cubic centimeter.

If you pick one at random, I’d say it’s about 50/50 of finding a racist.

- Comment on Nuclear energy remains weapon of choice for climate deniers and coal lobby 1 year ago:
I don’t want to argue about anything else here but this part
Remember, this is a country with a well established nuclear industry.
Is not an accurate representation of the situation in Sweden. It has had very strong anti-nuclear sentiments for at least 40 years and all its nuclear plants are old. Old old. There’s even been strong governmental. pressure limiting what you’re allowed to research or develop in regards to nuclear power.
Renewables are good, cheap, and fast, but that part was just not accurate in my mind.

- Comment on Well...that was anticlimactic 1 year ago:
The information doesn’t have to be evidence of aliens existing to be “urgent and credible”, the statement says “The ICIG found Mr. Grusch’s assertion that information was inappropriately concealed from Congress to be urgent and credible in response to the filed disclosure.” which could mean it can just be about the organizational structure is the agencies, for example.
And I wasn’t going to mention it but this is the second time you bring up Snowden, who neither “[dumped] his load” nor “defected to Russia”. He released information that the US government was illegally spying on its own citizens as well as its allies in a much broader way than anyone outside imagined. He was then stuck at an airport in Russia because the US government revoked his passport during a flight that landed there. He has repeatedly asked for a fair, public trial instead of being put in a dark box at Guantanamo and received no agreement of that from the US government so he’s stayed in one of the only places where he won’t be extradited to a country that intends to make him disappear. Since then, he’s criticized authoritarianism and governmental overreach while living in one of the most brutal dictatorships on earth, which takes more balls than either of us have.

So that says nothing about the information itself but rather just goes on about credentials and employment, with a tidbit about not leaking classified information. It does not provide any justification as to why this person’s claims should be believed rather than just “he worked there”.
