@evacide I would love some unsolicited advice, but I understand it's a privilege.

A really stupid comic/meme with a surprising amount of scientific knowledge in it. I've been laughing about this all day.

Fun science fact I learned this morning. Every frog species can be traced back to a common ancestor in what is now Poland. Isn't that amazing? It means every frog is a tad Pole.

Vivian, Musk‘s trans daughter, has things to say about the Musk biography that portrayed her as brainwashed and a cause of trauma to her father (rather than the other way around) on Threads https://www.threads.net/@vivllainous/post/C-jgBWQxyRs/
@stux If this is real, the number of possible hydraulic and mechanical failures that could easily kill those people is a long one.
@marti Well, you do you, but if you can't tell the difference between Democrats and Republicans in what they do and intend to do I think you're either not serious or only considering very few specific - and important - issues. Either way I don't think this conversation can change it.
@marti Who's "he"?
@marti I would say Obamacare is better than lowering taxes for the rich. Gay marriage is better than invading Iraq. They don't do the same things. There is a difference.
@marti Feel free to block me if you like. Stopping aid discourages Israel and I also think it should have been done a long time ago. Presumably it's the election that's preventing it. And I don't think Democrats are great, I just think Republicans are far worse.
@marti @rebeccawatson I think what you mean is: you can't fix all the things, even the important things, with a single vote. And that's definitely true. You can't really stop Israel from doing genocide if they're _really_ into it, unless you're willing to invade it. You can't just fire all cops and start from scratch. But you can gradually improve things with a lot of effort.
@greegreehoist Yes, there is. But anything beyond that would be my opinion.
@zaufanatrzeciastrona No nie wiem, tam wydaje się nie poszło nic ważnego w tych dokumentach, więc wydaje się nieco podejrzane.

As NZ households face a cost of electricity crisis, an Aussie mining company is set to jump on the Fast Track Approvals process to greenlight a Seabed Mining project, which would PREVENT an Offshore Wind generation industry from being established in Taranaki.

Chess hasn’t been updated in almost 200 years and it’s obvious the devs have abandoned it. The greedy creators took your money and laughed all the way to the bank.
I remember back in 705 AD when chess was fun. Then they started adding stupid features no one wanted like “castling” and “en passant” instead of listening to player feedback and fixing game-breaking bugs. I’ve been complaining for years about the collision-detection glitch with the horsey. The ‘clipping-through-pieces’ bug has been abused to death and the lazy devs refuse to fix it.
Don’t support this awful behaviour and boycott this company.
@aliss And of course now they're adding AI to it, like losing to strangers wasn't annoying enough.
@sjvn Surprisingly, they're the same species.
