  • physics: laws, unless you look reeeeeally close, then it's all about probability.

  • these people are the worst

    Jump

  • I've been playing pokemon champions lately and you can really tell when the game decides not to match you against a bot because the difficulty goes from 0 - 100 instantly.

    tbh I like the idea of populating the lower ranks of the game with bots, I wish the game would be honest about it instead of trying to hide it.

  • Alternative Headline

    Jump

  • non-sapient animals have no concept of consent, people reveal their prejudices by what intent they read into their behaviors.

  • Think Bold

    Jump

  • Too many billionaires? We released wolves into the highest income neighborhoods in America, and you wouldn't believe what happened next!

  • NASA scientists says astronauts should not masturbate in space

    Jump

  • On the ISS, they sleep in sleeping bags enclosed in a little padded soundproof capsule. I feel like you could zip yourself up, with or without a partner, and make it happen.

  • A Nasa engineer named Smythe answered questions from Conan O’Brien on his podcast Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend in 2022.

    man says funny thing on comedy podcast, more at 11

    there is simply no way that nobody has had sex or masturbated in space. i know it's against the rules but they sent a married couple up there at the same time once!

  • Humans are part of the ecosystem.

    Jump

  • this is correct but the layout kind of implies that the indigenous group are the eco fascists and vice-versa

  • Lmao

    Jump

  • (and asparagus staging in real life would require jet turbine fuel pumps that are physically impossible I was just joking)

  • Lmao

    Jump

  • I've played kerbal space program with increased gravity, you just have to use asparagus staging, no prob!

  • Heart of Darkness

    Jump

  • i get that this is just an edgy joke but the evidence that most computer programmers really wish they were antebellum south slaveowners continues to grow

  • fried circuits

    Jump

  • I only support good things, and don't support any bad things.

    The only reason you think this is "frying people's circuits" is because they immediately recognize the dumb game you're playing and either try to shake you out of it or immediately dismiss you as unserious.

  • Gotta go fast

    Jump

  • They're pretty neat. Since the molten salt core stays hot for a while after the sun goes down, in some high-output high-storage setups they're cheaper than traditional PV panels + batteries while providing the same power.

  • Is Lyme Disease recognized in the US?

    Jump

  • In the US it's not so much about lyme disease being denied as it is about chronic lyme disease being denied. People who catch the disease sometimes experience long term symptoms that don't go away after the initial treatment which can be debilitating.

    That said the "denial" doesn't come from the medical establishment (our CDC has a page talking about it that's pretty informative), it comes from insurers who refuse to cover long term treatments and doctors who aren't up to date.

  • Retaliation strike

    Jump

  • The joke is that America is the child with the fake steering wheel.

  • Just shave it bro

    Jump

  • GOD tier sideburns tbh

  • Iran war cuts off helium from Qatar, and shortages will start to bite in a few weeks, threatening chip supply chains that fuel the AI boom

    Jump

  • I've read that ai chips can't be used for anything but ai, but maybe that ram will hit the market and be useful for something.

  • The Best Laptop of 2026 was Made in 2016

    Jump

  • hel yea my thinkpad t480 is a little younger than that but it's top tier, had to reimage a bunch of windows laptops today and got reminded just how slooooooooooooow corporate hardware can be i can't believe people work with that and just accept it as the way that computers are

  • Which career path is not ruined by AI?

    Jump

  • Physical stuff. Electrician, plumber, HVAC. I do IT and networking primarily on the physical side which is an option. I wouldn't suggest buying fully into the "trades make lots of money" propaganda but once you're established you'll be comfortable and they're all jobs that can't be automated or offshored.

    Be realistic about the pay drop though if you decide to go this route. I would kill to be a slop dev because it would pay like twice what I'm getting right now, but I'm still pretty junior in my field.
