  • ‘We Need to Do McCarthyism to the Tenth Power’ | Conservative influencers are pushing for a return to the dark days of 1950s inquisitions.

  • I think we ended up with an incentive structure where people are lucratively compensated for fully batshit-insane takes that drive engagement, and this moves the Overton window to normalize what used-to-be a batshit take.

    I also think it's worth investigating those incentives and burning them to the ground and salting the soil beneath them

  • I'm already pro-vax, but I started to watch a video of a baby with pertussis (whooping cough) and I had to turn it off almost immediately because it was so viscerally tragic

  • Oh good. Just what we need. Now there should be a clear winner for dumbest senator; tuberville outlasted mister two-names

  • I wanted to believe that it wasn't us, but there's isn't any malice or incompetence I could put past this administration.

  • Trump says ‘I guess’ Americans should worry about Iran retaliating on U.S. soil: ‘Like I said, some people will die’

  • I think telling a rando to 'kys' or whatever kids are saying, is bad. For some reason, though, it feels less objectionably when directed at public figures

  • Is "dark humor" generally acceptable or is it just my parents/culture more sensitive towards jokes?

    Jump

  • I think "dark humor" can be a pretty broad term. You were just poking fun and lightheartedly highlighting a real risk of not getting a new charger. On the other hand, I know people that have had house fires and lost every material possession they had. Keepsakes of lost relatives, photo albums, cherished souvenirs, etc. some people have lost loved ones. The older you get, the more you accumulate tragedy, be it first or second-hand. Humor that hurts or scares people isn't kind, even if you don't agree with their sensitivity. Then again, when you collect enough tragedy, it can become funny again because you just have to laugh

  • Microplastics and nanoplastics in urban air originate mainly from tire abrasion, research reveals

    Jump

  • Weirdly, electric cars are also worse for tire abrasion since they tend to be heavier. Trains and electric bikes (in cities) seems like a good way to go

    Jump

  • Metal would wear out too fast on asphalt/concrete though. What if we used metal tyres on metal roads? Less friction, less abrasion! It'd be expensive though to replace the whole road. Maybe just a pair of strips the same width as the tyre spacing. Cars could even connect to each other to reduce aerodynamic drag.... Nah, would never work

  • Cast iron pizza

    Jump

  • An unexpected strong benefit to cast iron pizza is that you can spread toppings to the very edge for a crust less pie and also pile toppings super high - which is a strong benefit if you want to go heavy on the spinach

    Jump

  • I'm not 100% up on the geopolitics of the region, but how the hell does Israel think that there isn't going to be the risk of some extinction-level backlash from this? It seems like they're picking a fight on multiple fronts
