I don't read my replies

  • How is this still a thing nowadays? That a cop died by ingesting Fent by either touching it or someway else besides taking a pill or administered? How long is this bs going on for?

    Jump

  • That's a really long article to say that the pig was high on duty and died as a result. Everybody knows that fentanyl exposure syndrome is BS but they still can't help but imply the fuck out of it.

    When citizens OD and crash, they're treated like the deadly menace that they are. Pigs are protected by fairy tales and moonbeams.

  • AIs can’t stop recommending nuclear strikes in war game simulations— Leading AIs from OpenAI, Anthropic and Google opted to use nuclear weapons in simulated war games in 95% of cases

  • I can not be created, only confirmed.

  • What are some hobbies that are generally looked down on but are not really problematic?

    Jump

  • Watching Youtube videos. It's as good as college for anyone with a little savvy. I'll bet that Youtube employs more PHD philosophers than any three universities.

  • Which plants (or fungi) are the worst, and why?

    Jump

  • Turf grass. It's the stupidest crop ever cultivated by humanity.

    Lawns are an 17th century European fashion trend. We poison the soil with herbicides to defend grass. We poison the water with fertilizers to feed grass. Many US households through HOAs or zoning regulations are legally required to cultivate and martian grass. Grass doesn't feed anyone, except the insects that die soon afterwards from all the poison.

  • What is the term for using positive rhetoric to cover up negative actions or behavior?

    Jump

  • Maybe your looking for "toxic-positivity"?

    It's the type of mindset where everything must be positive, even if that means discounting or ignoring negative feelings, bad behavior, and bad situations.

    This is a recognized psychological phenomena and can range from normal "keep your chin up" type stuff to full blown "FUD will not be tolerated" cult type stuff

  • There are telegraphs with higher bandwidth than this thing.

  • Can anyone recommend any good science communicators for a 12 year old girl?

    Jump

  • SciShow is good people making science content aimed at a general audience.

  • What your Linux Desktop says about you

    Jump

  • I don't understand all the friction Gnome gets. Yes, I'm satisfied with everything default on the Debian/ Fedora Workstation. That's because the DE get's the hell out of my way and most everything can be easily managed without touching the mouse.

    Those two things alone are so important to me, and such an improvement over Windows, that I've just never gotten around to trying other DE seriously.

  • In a blind test, audiophiles couldn't tell the difference between audio signals sent through copper wire, a banana, or wet mud

    Jump

  • Audiophiles get a lot of friction, but this kind of person exists in almost any hobby. People fascinated by equipment and ascetics who loose the plot about what their hobby is all about.

  • Conspiracy Theories Only Flourish With More Epstein Evidence

    Jump

  • Conspiracy theories can be a coping mechanism that allow people to feel like they understand a complicated and scary world. The Epstein scandal is complicated and scary.

  • What's your pitch for an X-Files 'monster of the week' premise?

    Jump

  • Slug man from the sewer runs for president, wins.

  • Kellogg ---> Epstein

    Jump

  • The reason circumcision is common in the US has more to do with people like RFK jr. than it does with people like Epstein.

  • I fully read/watch all advertisements on a webpage to earn the privilege of viewing its content.

    Jump

  • Have an upvote you lunatic.

  • How seriously is Quantum Immortality taken?

    Jump

  • The idea isn't falsifiable. Therefore it's not science.

    It's not dumb or foolish to think that ideas like this are plausible and cool. They may even be true, we just can't tell the difference with science.

  • NSFW

    330 gallons of sulphuric-acid was purchased for Epstein Island on the day the FBI opened investigation

    Jump

  • Sulfuric Acid isn't ideal for dissolving bodies, because it doesn't dissolve bones well. It has many legitimate uses such as water purification, which the article points out.

    Honestly with all the terrible shit we know happened, I don't understand the urge to turn this into an episode of Dexter. Is child-abuse island it not interesting enough?

  • In Pulp Fiction Vincent made a big deal about a $5 milkshake, which is less than a crappy one from a fast food joint costs today.

    Jump

  • Hardees/ Carls jr. used to advertise a 1/4 cheeseburger with lettuce and tomato as the "six dollar burger" as a dig at casual dining restaurants.

    Today it's called the "famous star" and is $6.39.

  • News these days

    Jump

  • Gary Webb killed himself. He was divorced, unemployed, and his professional reputation was ruined. His reporting on the CIA importing cocaine was retracted after it was fact checked, and his editor would not stand behind the reporting.

    But his article was published and is still available to read. The idea that the CIA assassinates people 20 years after they "spill the secrets" stretches credulity. Makes since he'd punch his own ticket.

    The idea that he was shot twice "in the back of the head" is a myth. He did shoot himself twice, but that's not so unusual. 42% of gunshot and penetrative wounds to the brain are survivable.

    This meme irritates me because it depends on the misinformation that suicides are unusual or suspicious. Suicides are common as dirt. To the tune of like 40K people/ year in the US. It's a major public health crisis but gets ignored because of taboo and because it's a gun issue.
