How far we have fallen...

57FkMytWjyFu··on People are losing control over phones

People aren't drawn to apps, they're forced into them via dark patterns. Immersive is another word for imprisoned.

57FkMytWjyFu··on FDA says marijuana has a legitimate medicinal purpose

The product made by that university was whole plant, ground. It might have been paid to grow it, but it wasn't any good at it.

KMFDM sucks! 'Our music is sampled//Totally fake It's done by machines//Cause they don't make mistakes'

57FkMytWjyFu··on Trident missile test fails for a second time in a row

Seems somewhat related to the miserable paint and preservation on the hull.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Why Charging Your Gadgets over 80% Is Such a Bad Idea

Maybe to you. At $150 per kWh, I'd call them expensive. Especially if they only last 2-3 years.

I just had an under-warranty 1500 watt battery replaced in my mower.

Batteries are expensive.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Ask HN: Alternatives to the Pomodoro technique?

For me, the problem with a digital clock is that the hours are signed duodecimal, and the minutes are sexagesimal. If I start from base ten mental math, the last half of every waking hour vanishes, in a divergent erroneous ratio.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Ask HN: Alternatives to the Pomodoro technique?

Your search term is 'body-doubling', where you feel like a slacker if someone is watching you not hustle while they hustle.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Gödel, Escher, Bach is the most influential book in my life (2022)

I like them apples.

57FkMytWjyFu··on WJLX owner reports seemingly impossible theft of 200-foot radio tower

Would that kilowatt still be present if you steal the input power cables first?

57FkMytWjyFu··on Majority of America's underground water stores are drying up, study finds

No, it isn't easier, it's done on ships for lack of choice.

57FkMytWjyFu··on No one should be the second person to die on a dangerous street

Safteyism is economically infeasible, and a blog post isn't going to change that.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Majority of America's underground water stores are drying up, study finds

You really don't want to mix salty water with machines unless you have to.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Oxford researchers use hedgehog crash test dummies to limit lawnmower injuries

If you really want your hedgehogs, put your forests back.

The Scots have plenty of hedgehogs they don't want.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Show HN: WingmanAi – Upload text conversations and get reply suggestions with AI

Maybe don't feed people's private messages to an AI without asking, thanks.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Oxford researchers use hedgehog crash test dummies to limit lawnmower injuries

This is like expecting Teslas to swerve for squirrels.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Cannabis Crunch: Thailand's Sudden Reversal on Marijuana Legalization

I think you want to take a closer look at that 0.2 number.

By this metric, ditch weed (wild hemp) is classified as a narcotic.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Flipboard Begins to Federate

No, I don't.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Flipboard Begins to Federate

Perhaps you assumed that I just threw that link in there, and it had nothing to do with my comment.

Here is a sample of text from it.

"Unwanted 3rd party apps from Microsoft or Flipboard."

57FkMytWjyFu··on Google's Stadia Controller salvage operation will run for another year

Dormant bluetooth my ass.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Flipboard Begins to Federate

57FkMytWjyFu··on Most people don't realize how much progress we've made on climate change

Do you think concrete is recyclable?

57FkMytWjyFu··on Most people don't realize how much progress we've made on climate change

Have you ever ridden a bus? You can't decentralize public transit.

Also, do you know the impact of tearing up old cement and putting new cement somewhere else?

People are cray, man... we have to make do with what we have 9 times out of 10 rather than tear it up and replace it. "Strong Towns" and the like are full of it.

57FkMytWjyFu··on Trim – Cancel unwanted subscriptions and negotiate lower bills

Will it tell you to cancel itself? Seems counterintuitive...

57FkMytWjyFu··on All-new 2025 RAM 1500 Ramcharger Unveiled With Unlimited Battery-electric Range

Unlimited seems a bit of a stretch. It's "up to 690 miles".
