I always thought this was a joke but I knew a girl who dated a guy who wouldn’t fully clean his ass in the shower because he thought getting his finger anywhere near his butthole was gay.

I have a hard time even comprehending the thought process.

James Cameron has had a plan to make a bunch of sequels since the first movie. I remember it from the advertising around the original.

Government and bureaucracy is the duct tape and glue we made to hold society together but actual societal change is a more natural force that is completely separate from government.

Aren’t all consoles?

Sorry, but it’s more like a crab apple.

It looks like an apple, it’s presented like an apple, it’s advertised like an apple because that is what makes the YouTuber money. But scientific methods and standards exist for a reason. It’s very easy to produce bad data and especially easy to extract bad conclusions from data if you have an incentive to do so (such as a fan base who might engage with the video less if the conclusions were against their expectations)

There’s a chance that this guy’s conclusions reflect what a proper study might have found, but it’s just too hard to tell if it’s a crab apple or not it’s essentially probably a little better than chance.

Olive Garden is a restaurant chain. It would be like spending all day on the Arby’s or McDonald’s app with an added layer of Olive Garden being a bit obscure.

It’s funny how people don’t seem to remember being a kid. I can name you plenty of memes and in-jokes from middle school/high school where the “joke” was that it had literally no meaning. Adults being confused about kids these days only fuels the joke.

Like, has anyone lost the game recently? You think that’s any more high-brow?

Take flasks.

Laguette de la botte is definitely a dish I would try at a French restaurant

Yeah ironically it would probably be better to be in the 40k universe if it was current day.

Invest in tungsten

Yeah for real, what does this mean exactly? All forms of machine learning? That’s a lot of computers at this moment, it’s just we only colloquially call the chat bot versions “AI”. But even that gets vague do reactive video game NPCs get counted as “AI?” Or all of our search algorithms and spell check programs?

At that point what’s the point? The disclosure would become as meaningless as websites asking for cookies or the number of things known to cause cancer in the state of California.

I think the point is it doesn’t prevent wide spread use. If a plant resists cultivation then it’s not worth it to try to farm, either industrially or in your back yard. Especially if you’re trying to farm for sustenance.

Yeah, you can’t just lay down electricity, especially not practical electricity it requires a ton of diverse knowledge from many different studies. What I would do is give them the concept of using steam to power to spin wheels or create an engine. Then use gear ratios to show them how to scale it up. Idk if they had found neodymium magnets back then, but teach them how to use them to heat iron by spinning them on the end of a steam engine and you’re starting to cook with electricity.

Again, getting to electricity from there is still a whole fucking chore. But hopefully you could rely on science to advance way faster from your advances than if you weren’t there.

Actually, the most important thing you could give the greeks is the concept of the modern scientific method. That shit was invented so late and just skyrocketed science (literally) the moment it was refined.

Just write a book about everything you remember about a null hypothesis, randomized blind trials, control experiments, variable control etc. if you can squeeze any bit of statistics out of your brain, even if it’s just making a graph, you probably advance the world by thousands of years.

If those couple of lines couldn’t be determined to be true without the 83 page setup then it took all 83 pages to prove 1+1=2

Doubling down on not paying for her food when there was no indication that he was expected to was definitely strange. It’s a perfectly fine thing to be uncomfortable with, don’t try and force the fault on her.

I helpfully tell people why they’re misinformed cause I think learning is for everyone.

Oklahoma is his mondo dumpy rumpy takin a poo

On the bright side, my nuts don’t stick to the side of my leg anymore cause I sweat PTFEs.

Just turned 30 on Saturday. I haven’t written my book, played my guitar or finished the dozens of projects I have lying around like I planned to do for the last 10 years.
