2·6 days agoYou could write a song about buying random stuff from eBay. I hope someone does it. Just not a strange person, and definitely not in 2003.
5·6 days agoBut this 2D platformer has an interesting plot and characters.
This is why:
“It ain’t stupid if it works.”
is fundamentally incorrect.

What happens if we use the drugs on the dogs and then they just end up being “okay boys” rather than “good boys”? 🐕
I don’t know if I could live in such a world.
“This is the most foolish war. Why doesn’t Ukraine, which has the largest army, not simply destroy Russia?”

7·8 days agoThe Pixelfed apps are free to use and do not collect any user data.
That’s a sound for sore ears.
2·14 days agoIt says in the article
Unlike conventional batteries, supercapacitors have an exceptionally long lifespan, lasting hundreds of thousands of charge-discharge cycles, whereas lithium batteries typically last only five years or less.
It doesn’t say what type of capacitor is used
Yes, it does. They’re supercapacitors.
Land Value Tax solves this problem.
I think it’s a joke. Instead of “The God Particle”, it’s “the dog particle”.
Why was the title edited?
TSMC’s wafer pricing now $18,000 for a 3nm wafer, increased over 3X in 10 years: Analyst
The fact that there has been an increase in cost is the key piece of information. Are we expected to know that $18000 is expensive for a wafer?

That’s just a normal functional relationship.
8·20 days agoCareful, the Prohibition Era wasn’t sunshine and rainbows.
“On balance, Prohibition probably reduced per capita alcohol use and alcohol-related harm, but these benefits eroded over time as an organized black market developed and public support for [national prohibition] declined.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prohibition_in_the_United_States#Effects
National alcohol prohibition in the United States between 1920 and 1933 is believed widely to have been a misguided and failed social experiment that made alcohol problems worse by encouraging drinkers to switch to spirits and created a large black market for alcohol supplied by organized crime.
Hall, W. (2010), What are the policy lessons of National Alcohol Prohibition in the United States, 1920–1933?. Addiction, 105: 1164-1173. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1360-0443.2010.02926.x
Maybe that’s because the patriarchy favours a minority of men.
Go read The Will to Change, then come back and tell me that the majority of men are having a grand time.
You’re picturing the men at the top, which are few. The majority suffer.
angry tone.
Sarcastic tone, you’re reading what I wrote in an angry voice. Try reading with a happy voice. 😉
that’s 1000+ years of potential change that we have no way of disproving.
What if that’s not the point?
“Oh, but it’s not exactly what that person said!”
So what? Taking sentences out of context is bad interpretation anyway, especially if we aren’t reading the original language with the original cultural context (again, which was over 2 thousand years ago).
You’re arguing for the letter of the law, I’m arguing for the spirit.
Not in the books, but in the movies:
