I honestly have no clue what you're hinting at but the way you put yourself in a "misunderstood victim" role in a precautionary way makes me not want to know.

True. That also requires a good portion of critical thinking and education in general, which is, let's be honest, rather rare in most comment sections. I fear that in the future we'll look at today's YouTube comment sections

We also evolved to store calories as fat. But, turns out that if you do that excessively, it's not that much of a benefit anymore. When was the last time you ran a long distance to kill a deer? For the majority of people, it's mai

That was such an interesting post, thank you for that. I'm sure I've felt it but I don't think I could have put it in words like you did. Landing on those last three points of yours really hit the spot for me.

That's really well put, and I think is exactly what strikes me as off about these threads as opposed to what I'm used to on HN. It really seems like these conspiracy theories are way more indulged here than they would in any other

On every HN thread about meat there are people claiming they know dozens of people that nearly died because they stopped eating meat, completely neglecting that there are entire cultures that eat pretty much no meat[0]. Or the fact that the

Yeah, I have noticed that with a lot of HN threads that resolve around eating meat. It gets to a level of tinfoil-hat that I'm absolutely not used to on this website, but maybe I've simply not been here long enough. The other day

But isn't "war on protein" different from "let's change up the meat sector"? Maybe I'm missing something, but the former sounds far more like a conspiracy theory to me, while the latter can be stated prett

Better media is a valid point, but I feel like mentioning typing indicators right after totally takes away from it. It felt so out of place in the article as well. Sorry, but who gives a fuck? All you need to do is wait a couple more second

At 5 minutes you were really quick! For me it was probably like 20-30, but like I said: it's not necessarily something I'm skilled at. Either way, repairs are fairly quick and easy!

How does it avoid cables? I have an earlier Roborock version and while I love it and will defend it until the day it dies, I've found that cables are the absolute nemesis. Does your version have computer vision?

I can only speak about the Roborock S5, but I assume the newer ones are fairly comparable. I once had it give me an error that the main fan (for suction) was broken. In this case, there was a small particle lunged into it, so it wouldn'

That's funny. Frankness is not a trait I would have thought is very American. If anything, you guys are a bit too polite at times it seems. I don't know if it's just the ruling class that has decided this change. I applaud ev

I don't think anyone feels like the US shouldn't have its own culture -- definitely not more so than other places. If anything, the US injects its culture everywhere , due to entertainment being a primary export. And most of it i

Yes, obviously that's alright. It's nonetheless also alright to wonder about or even question the reason behind those different cultures. As a European, it's just really, really strange to see how everything war, gore, deat
