This couple and really anyone who learned about evolution by watching Idiocracy: if intelligent parents are needed to make intelligent babies, from where did intelligence first arise?

Fun fact: many Russian Navy ships were laid down in Ukraine. Though these days she mostly does submarine conversion kits.

It amuses me that something so modern as video games already has the problem of fading into oblivion. Maybe that’s why it’s so compelling, because the foundations are still in living memory?

Anyway in the museum, a disk that cannot be read is an artifact just as the plane that cannot fly.

These days, Ice Cube knows more about wine parings than he does about crime and poverty.

Fonzi and “Grease” greaser stereotypes that were popular at the time

Isn’t it funny how we look back to 80s as nostalgia, but so much of that was recycled 50s nostalgia. Has anyone ever lived through and authentic era?

DEI is a conservative concept: have your corporate masters both decide how anti-racism can justify it’s existence (good for business) and how it should be implemented (top down corpo scolding).

It’s not a social issue, it’s a marketing campaign. And we shouldn’t feel obligated to defend something so hideous and trivial just because it aggravates the reactionary.

This is crazy in it’s lack of sophistication. Reads more like a criminal scam to get grandma’s credit card than an intelligence op to destabilize Western Europe.

I suppose all the talented “hackers” were more valuable at the front.

the preferred nomenclature is “come back with a warrant”.

That thing about being anti-bacterial is true. By simply being a barrier that microbes (and dirt, and water) can’t penetrate. For short term wound treatment, petroleum jelly is an excellent barrier for an open wound that’s not bleeding. Bandages inundated with it can keep a wound clean in the roughest conditions.

You should check out the Youtube channel “technology connections”. They have videos that go into detail about heat-pumps. Specifically what the efficiency ratings mean, and how different units compare.

I’m no Luddite, but the idea of a “bread machine” has always seemed wrong to me. A machine half the size of R2D2, that’s half mixer, half oven. And they “recommend” bespoke flours and mixes that demand obscene markups. All to produce mediocre loves.

Anyone can do better with basic equipment and cheap supplies. But not everyone will do better and that’s fine. It’s just that you could get bakery fresh delivered for like a year before you’d approach the upfront cost of those monstrosities.

IDK if we should be calling something that requires so much training and dexterity an “accessibility device”.

With the expense of the hardware, the learning curve for the user, and the friction of wearing all that stuff, this is going to have to solve a compelling problem to be useful. Especially when “good enough” solutions are everywhere and free.

Jeff the god of biscuits.

Good news everyone!

The militant centrist symbol is Jon Stewart wearing a Che Guevara hat. The T-shirt is only available in extra medium.

You can’t make yourself sleep. You can make yourself get up. Force yourself to get up early the going to bed early part will take care of itself.

Oh and you should stop drinking liquids a couple of hours before bed. Unless your a man over 50, in that case if you want to sleep through the night you’ll have to avoid any fluids after Tuesday.

This statement outlines this developer’s sociopolitical agenda.

Barbaric Islamic conservatives. In the modern Western Christian State where I live, you have to wait until the bride is 12.

Not all “elephant experience” parks are the same. Some only have rescue animals, don’t use them for “shows”, segregate male animals from guests, and only allow interaction on the animal’s terms.

Similar to the difference between an accredited zoo and Joe Exotic.

I’m reading a book and the author made the observation that Sarah Palin and McCain were sidekicks, partners, and Mavericks^tm
