Revan343,

Shitty modern electric stove tops use infrared radiation. Good modern electric stove tops are induction

Revan343,

Right? Why wasn’t that the headline?

Revan343,

If you’re male, just tell them you’re gay, they’ll piss off .

If you’re female, tell them you have anemia

Revan343,

Oh me too, absolutely; if you’re A or O and RH- I’ll take your blood; Canadian Blood Services are more discriminatory though, they’re somehow still in the gay AIDS panic phase. Which they should have gotten over decades ago

Revan343,

Oh did it? That’s cool, I somehow didn’t hear about it

Revan343,

I once duct taped a pizza to the inside of my jacket to smuggle it into a theatre

Revan343,

The girl I was going to the movie with thought it was hilarious, so it got me laid.

The pizza was from Little Caesars, so it wasn’t really any worse after being sideways for a while

Revan343,

That would have been smart, but at the time ‘funny’ was more important than ‘effective’, and again, it was a Little Caesars pizza; it was not significantly harmed by being sideways for 20 minutes

Revan343,

Well, again, it’s Little Caesars; duct tape also would not impact the quality of the pizza.

…are you from somewhere that doesn’t have Little Caesars? If so, understand: their pizza is best described as ‘edible’

Revan343,

Exactly

Edit: The meme that comes to mind goes something like

“Have our pizza, it’s hot and ready”

“Is it good?”

“It’s hot and ready.”

Revan343,

Really probably one of my best moments as far as sexual conquests go, the other was when I made pancakes well enough that it was apparently a turn-on for her.

Revan343,

Smokers actually save the NHS money

Revan343,

Lol, Republicans need to answer yes

Revan343,

Exactly. LLMs are just a Chinese room

Revan343,

Pedals on a smaller car or sports car tend to be small and very close together

Exactly. Nobody is making this mistake in a semi, with the throttle and brake all the way on the right and the clutch (if it exists) all the way on the left, and a huge gap in between, but a little car, and big feet? Absolutely

Revan343,

Very tangentially relevant xkcd

Revan343, (edited )

He would no longer be a convicted felon if the conviction was overturned on appeal, but that unlikely scenario is the only future where he isn’t a convicted felon

Revan343,

Does the mandatory national service pay $30+/hour, with raises if you stay voluntarily after the mandatory period is finished? That might do it.

Revan343,

Adding to the Mint recommendation, Xfce edition if you’re partial to Xfce, or LxQt if you want to try something else lightweight

Revan343,

The next president, they’re going to be able to appoint a couple of justices

That being the case, maybe Biden should stop trying to throw the election

Revan343,

Quassel nowadays, because I’m on my phone more often than my laptop. Back when I say at a keyboard more, it was irssi, no contest

Revan343,

I have a similar ThinkPad, I run Mint with LxQt, though xfce is a good option too

Revan343,

Diamond saw blades are about to get cheaper

Revan343,

It depends; if a company can use this to make them stupid cheap, then selling them stupid cheap to undercut all their competitors could still make them more money than keeping the price the same and pocketing the saved production costs.

Revan343,

And organize

Biden says ICC move on arrest warrants for Israeli leaders "outrageous" (www.reuters.com)

WASHINGTON, May 20 (Reuters) - U.S. President Joe Biden on Monday slammed the International Criminal Court prosecutor’s application for arrest warrants for senior Israeli officials including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, calling the move “outrageous”....

Revan343,

Except Israel isn’t a legitimate nation, they’re a colonialist apartheid state

Revan343,

Hamas is also the elected representative government of a population. Not recently elected mind you, but they were elected

Revan343,

I like the way you think

Revan343,

and they’ve never actually heard anything from the new testament

Except Revelation. Shithead churches tend to be very into Revelation

Revan343,

And how is this allowed?

It isn’t.

Revan343,

Tobacco tends to contain high levels of Polonium-210, which is radioactive and decays into lead, so.

The problem with cigarettes mostly isn’t additives, it’s the above, and the fact that smoke in general is bad for you, and contains all sorts of nasty chemicals

Revan343,

Battleshots only requires two pizza boxes, a sharpie, and a bunch of shot glasses, all of which are also generally on hand, at least later into the party

Revan343,

God dammit that makes me want to start drinking again

Revan343,

They don’t really need to be that straight, and you can always use a square liquor bottle as a straight edge. Somebody brought a bottle of jack

Revan343,

I just did, I’m a week sober. Damned chess shots, ugh.

Revan343,

But will you think of that when you’re drunk, or will you default to the Jack Daniels?

Revan343,

Ah, I use them at work, and then they come home in my pocket, so I tend to have them everywhere

Revan343,

I do, everything at Tim’s is garbage, why would their lids be any different?

Revan343,

Naw, they’ll wait until everyone evacuates, and then bomb wherever they evacuated to

Revan343,

You’re right, it’ll be both; it’s not like they need to conserve ammunition, America will always send them more

Steam HW survey: Mac are 1.35%, Linux 1.90%... but is the industry reacting to this? (store.steampowered.com)

The PC gaming industry (AAA and such) seems more sensible the economy of money around the Apple Platform, for sure. But we’re talking about iOS gaming… not exactly what keep the industry busy with complex technologies like RayTracing, cutting edge PBR textures and gigallion of cinematic rendered Quadruple-A art assets....

Revan343,

I am shocked that the people who are more likely to know how to file a good bug report end up filing more bug reports

Revan343,

We don’t need a foreign grocer, we need a publicly owned option

Revan343,

I do quite like co-ops, but I was thinking a crown corporation, just because that way they’d have the scale to seriously threaten Loblaws and the like.

Of course, the problem with crown corporations is that as soon as the Conservatives get into power, they’ll sell it for pennies (and probably to Loblaws)

Revan343,

I would make the comparison to SaskTel or Canada Post

Revan343,

Yeah. We could have been Norway, with a ridiculous sovereign fund, but instead the right wing gave it away

Revan343,

A national crown corp could pull it off just as well as a national private corp like Loblaws could

Revan343,

I’m mostly in agreement, and would prefer worker-owned co-ops over crown corporations in theory, my only issue is one of scale, and that’s unfortunately where a crown corp wins out, unless UFCW starts opening union co-ops across the country to compete with Loblaws.

Which they should, but UFCW doesn’t have the guts to try

Revan343,

It will be if Poilievre wins the next election
