  • I'm probably just old but it's always faster to type :) than it is to find the 🙂, same goes for every emoji really.

  • The new luxury item being smuggled from Mexico to the US? Eggs

    Jump

  • I got down to my last egg like a month ago and keep thinking about when and how I should use it. Technically I could afford to buy more but it's the principle of the thing; not so much about not being a Spoiled American but I really don't want to support the companies price gouging these things. But I was also making a loaf of challah almost every week and I don't think my flax meal substitute will work for that...

    My solitary, lonely egg. Just chillin in the fridge.

    Maybe I should start my morning with an egg sandwich tomorrow.

  • Uhh I guess it's kinda like that, minus you knowing you farted. Imagine the dog barked and ran but you genuinely had no idea why that happened. As a joke you go "dang that was like I farted so bad even the dog couldn't stand it!" But now everyone heard you say you farted, so any time a dog barks and runs away they call it "Rowbot's fart."

    Dark matter may not literally be matter of any kind at all. All we know for sure is that objects with a certain amount of observable matter are, for some reason, behaving like they have much, much more. But also not with any consistency; some of them act like they have 30% more, others like they're twice their size. We just call it dark matter because "dang it's like there's a bunch of matter we can't see." But we don't really know what's causing the discrepancy.

    To be fair, it's not like we're totally clueless about it, but as of yet no single hypothesis has any concrete proof.

  • Like I said, watch her video. She goes into lots of detail and gives a much better explanation than I could ever hope to. But here I go anyway:

    The gist of it is that "dark matter" isn't really an attempt to explain anything. Like, theory of gravity, we have some good rules, things accelerate depending on mass and proximity to other things. Theory of dark matter? Not so much.

    Dark matter is a problem in the sense that it's an observable phenomenon we can't really explain. When we observe really far away stars and galaxies, they interact in ways that imply far larger amount of matter than what we are actually observing. So where's that matter? We don't know! Dark matter! But unfortunately that nomenclature and the many ideas surrounding what does cause the dark matter phenomenon have deeply clouded the conversation.

    Dark matter is not a theory of how things work. It's a problem to be solved.

  • Watch her dark matter video. And the follow up. But for the love of God, dodge the comments. SO MANY people read the title of the video and then went to make comments calling her wrong, even though she spent like an hour specifically addressing the arguments they make.

    Dark matter is not a theory. It's a problem. Fuck!

  • Elon Musk’s DOGE is growing desperate for a “win”

    Jump

  • I'm pretty sure musk is still the richest man in the world (at least on paper, who knows what people like Putin have hidden away). Until that changes there is a .00001% chance of trump and musk's relationship deteriorating

  • Just like basically every mental attribute, ADHD is a spectrum. I've been diagnosed ADHD but don't have it half as bad as many of the people here seem to, and yet I've also had a variety of bad reactions to every medication I've tried. Other people may have a few symptoms but not enough to bother getting a diagnosis, as it may not affect their daily lives at all.

    But also I'm another person who has too many favorites to ever properly read through, so this is a definitely real, medically valid internet comment diagnosis that you undoubtedly have ADHD

  • Unfortunately I don't know the physics, maybe something to do with how lights scatters through the windshield? Idk, all I can tell you is my repeated experience: turning the brights on definitely helps with seeing through oncoming traffic. But you are right, my older car is both smaller and lower, so I'm sure even the modern cars with lights aimed downward are more likely to shine directly at me

  • FuckYourHeadlights - A community for people to organise and vent about ridiculously bright lights

    Jump

  • I mean I guess I'm stupid but I straight up can't see if there's oncoming traffic and my brights aren't on. Doesn't go for every oncoming car (if its lights are reasonable then I have no issues) but the vast majority of cars have newer, hilariously bright headlights that shine in a way where my normal lights simply don't seem to cut it.

    Jump

  • Meanwhile I'm out here driving a 20 year old car with correspondingly dim headlights and need to have the highbeams on just to be able to see anything when there's oncoming traffic. My normal headlights are fine when there's nothing coming the other way, but that's not really how that's supposed to work lol. Kinda defeats the purpose of ever turning the brights off! I swear any newer car's normal lights are brighter than my brights

  • he would prefer it to stay reasonably rich

    I think he'd much rather eliminate one of the top economies and make more room for the Russian economy to recover. I'd imagine the simplified version of the plan goes something like this:

    1. Make the US destroy all its current trade relationships
    2. In manufactured desperation, the US drops sanctions and tries to lean on Russia as a new partner

    4. Profit
