Thanks for the original link! I find it so hard to read text with animated gifs right below them. I literally had to scroll the gifs off the screen to read the test. Its just too distracting and there's no stop animation option on twit

How could I possibly convince you of the empathy for animals you've never developed? This is like asking someone to prove a theorem to someone who has never studied math or science. I expressed my opinion. I fully accept I cannot ever

If they're feral there's not a lot we can do. We can capture them and fix them so they don't reproduce but they can't be homed and killing them would be evil. Outdoor cats are a bit more complex but its also cruel to loc

"our" is not the royal we here, this person refers to themselves with a plural sounding pronoun for identity reasons. They are not making a statement about ergonomics generally even though of course I can see how that can be conf

Yep and if the IP-warriors had their way there would be no Halo, no Everquest/Wow, etc. Its just incredible how these people back the most corrupt corporation's laziest IP theft claims and jump to defend them and mock everyone els

The pro-IP crowd has officially become self-parody if you guys are passing that around as a "copy."

I do this with my child. Shrug, I just buy more amazon rechargables and while it feels expensive its still a fraction of what buying non-rechargables cost over time. The only exception is his collection of lightsabres. Its like 3 AAA per an

NORAD: There's no way our anti-missile and anti-air would hit one of our planes by mistake. We're a professional military! FAA: Iran had a professional military too. And the Soviets and Russians too, and its happened there. NORAD:

This is it. Look at how often this happens, recently in Iran and before that in Ukraine. Anti-missile and anti-air systems are extremely dangerous and reckless machines. Civilian flights get blown up all the time and being extra cautious ma

I had debilitating long covid for 18 months and honestly I thought it was going to be for a lifetime, especially when I read so many success stories of others getting over it after 3-6 months and reading online wisdom about it pretty much b

I'm just not seeing your pangloss-like explanation in the real world. Gates' words are very carefully crafted. He's not being vulnerable, he's being a leader and that means engaging in the Machiavellian action of manipul

I think the CEO playing as toddler has a ego stroking element to it and probably why this strategy is preferred over others. I tend to see C-levels in two groups, the alpha-male no-BS type and then the emotional manipulator type. I think bo

Their relationship is so interesting to me because it ties to the old "child" monarch vs his steely-eyed advisors. Long story short, its emotional manipulation to come at someone from a position of power and complain about "w

This is such an insightful observation. I think to the critical thinker its clear capitalism doesn't allow dissent past a certain point. Sure, you can be an altruist in small way that don't threaten the status quo like giving to c

Sanctions and a million other things. Its not "let them commit crime against us" or nuclear war. There's middle ground of course.

If you think they didn't have slang in the 19th century then you are mistaken. You can't compare academic writing to slang and pretend society has devolved. We live in a time where people who would be locked out of the publication

I can find a competent plumber trivially. Hiring white collar jobs are much harder, especially specialized tech work. I think the anti-college popularity ties directly to the incredible cost of it in the USA, not that its necessarily a bad

Its a sign of the times. There's a lot of people, especially on the right, whose only experience with "news" is actually editorialized media. There's a "groupthink" and tribal element here too. This person want

"unreasonable" would then be editorializing, then it wouldnt be a news article but an opinion piece.

You won't often catch covid from stray particles but from the person breathing next to you, which these filters can't help. This study was in a hospital where everyone is wearing serious PPE, so its a super edge case to get rid of

Oculus customers were only able to play offline games during this time. Which I find concerning. I don't mind that FB employee badges didn't work because what would they do at their desks anyway and all exit doors have bypasses an

I think a lot of 90s and early 2000's idealist movements have been disbanded or migrated to smaller groups that are equally unable to change things. I remember when copyright reform was the biggest thing with Lessig and that's ent

To overthrow the Taliban means destroying them. They only retreated. You declared victory foolishly way too early. You didn't realize this was a decades struggle and, of course, lost that conflict. You also lost Iraq considering you ki

War was give a chance and the North won, with of course China threatening to move in on the action as well as the Soviet Union. UN forces continuing to fight in that region over the long debunked "domino theory" would have led to

I'm not sure if this comparison really works at all. Virgin risks real human lives every flight. Guy risks maybe a little weight gain for his fans. Shows aren't rocket launches and have little in common. Guy plays a sort of realit

50k is really amateur numbers. 50k people have probably already read you comment. Charli Damelio's last post was her eating a bag of Takis for 20 seconds and it got 15 MILLION views. We're just not seeing those numbers in marginal

Blue Origin isn't that expensive, at least by nation state standards. Its just if there's no political will for a space program then there will be no space program. Space is a money blackhole for the most part so there's no b
