  • I've heard it joked that "everyone going into wrestling is either gay or about to become gay". Because of all the body contact.

    That said this is a rather poor comic. "Haha, different sexualities exist"... I guess we as a culture are in a transition phase. We have to get used to realizing there is a spectrum of sexual orientations without either giggling like teenagers or blowing up with rage.

  • they flew at approximately 100 meters altitude directly over the radar station

    Ehh, this is like saying "this million-dollar tank was unable to fire at a mosquito only one meter away from the driver". There's such a thing as a minimum engagement distance.

  • Lots of international manufacturers skip model numbers 4 and 9 because of Asian superstitions. Silly, yes, but they affect sales and even birth rates.

    At least in Japanese, 4 sounds like "death" and 9 sounds like "suffering".

  • Your ancestor tree also expands exponentially (almost doubling with every generation), so everyone alive around the year 1250 AD is either one of your ancestors or no-one-around-today's ancestor (because their line died out).

    We are all related about 30 mothers out.

  • It sounds like you're internally associating Africa and the US with opposite "goodness" evaluations, but you never explain which way and I have no idea why you think your conclusion makes sense.

  • The current generation of AMD processors and motherboards have this "feature" where the first time you boot up, nothing shows on screen for about a minute, sometimes two. Because it's calibrating the memory or something stupid like that. With nothing on the fucking screen.

    It's obviously some hurried fix for a problem they encountered late in the development process of the AM5 generation, but Jesus Christ is it horribly implemented. The most tense moment when building a PC and they thought making it act as if it's broken for two minutes is good UX.

  • From Google AI:

    In 1990, the year the film was released, the actual house from Home Alone was purchased for $875,000. Economists from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago have determined that, at that price, the home was only affordable to the top 1% of Chicago households at the time.

    To afford the house in 1990 (assuming they spent no more than 30% of their income on housing), the McCallister family would have needed a household income of about $305,000, which is approximately $665,000 in 2022 dollars.

    The house last sold in 2012 for $1.58 million and again in early 2025 for $5.5 million.
