  • Anti-hype

    Jump

  • I'm this way too. I have very limited free time, but I also can't stand hype. Nothing ever really lives up to it, so I prefer to check things out after the buzz has died down

  • Metamorphosis

    Jump

  • I was picked on a lot. Now I have a cudgel at the ready for those who try and step on anyone I mentor or my kids.

    You're more patient than I would be in that situation.

  • Dopamine!

    Jump

  • First of all, rude.

    Second, how dare you.

    Thirdly, just because you're right doesn't mean you get to be an asshole about it.

  • I'm not a fan of censored memes, but they are becoming common and I'm far too lazy to hunt down uncensored ones or fix the ones I find

    As an asexual girl who still wants a male partner, would “scheduled sex” be a dealbreaker for men?

    Jump

  • Lol, you're describing married life.

    With other commitments, kids, etc there is zero spontaneity. Often planned sex falls through because someone is tired or something comes up.

    If anything you're ahead of the curve lol.

  • That is a lot

  • If you assume an average ejaculation distance of 9 inches and a nominal speed of 15 mph (this is apparently surprisingly well studied) - you get a data transfer rate of 46,500 TB/s.

    I once joked I could jizz faster than my shitty internet connection. Guess I was right

  • I was thinking about how the buffalo were massacred today. I saw a post showing how big a skinned buffalo was when hanging. Thought about 3000 lbs of meat.

    Now imagine 60 million of them; 5-10x more than there are Canada geese.

    What a tremendous waste of food, a horrific crime against nature and an insane reduction in biomass. Wildlife biomass today is a fraction of what the herds alone accounted for

  • Would be possible to have a smart city without the surveillance?

    Jump

  • Stabby, I just wanted to say, I saw your original comment, and was going to side with you - I don't think it's feasible to avoid surveillance. I also wanted to say that the way this conversation touches on all the points I thought about 'drafting' my comment in my head, so it was really great to read.

    While you can have reasonably dumb sensors (like motion lights in our house, but y'know in a city application), anything beyond that gets really challenging to use without compromising privacy, or becomes a tremendous pain the ass if we give a shit about privacy. Having a bajillion sensors all not talking to each other, or talking to each other through numerous layers creates a data management nightmare. it's why you don't get a bunch of technical experts to write several different parts of a report, for instance. You need one main author to go through and make it all sound the same and the parts to speak to each other. Same goes with data. Because of that need, you open yourself up to all that data/surveillance being compromised by 3rd parties or abused by governments, as you point out.
