I don’t like Tyson because I feel he preaches an inaccurate version of the scientific philosophy. So many times I hear him saying things along the lines of absolute certainty, because it’s SCIENCE.

Where, we of the true faith, preach: the evidence indicates that this is the most likely to be true, or at least, this model makes predictions about the world more reliably than any other we currently have.

Amen.

Pretty soon that devine right of kings and thing is going to look laughable by comparison.

Kings were nowhere near this rich, or powerful.

While I know that these days, bugs in code can cause real-world harm (personal info leaks, superannuation records lost, lol google), I find it humorous to think of the equivalent, even worse outcomes in my discipline (chemical/process engineering).

“Didn’t do any checks, fuck it, I know this calculation is fire 🔥”

Later: 🔥🔥💥

The number of people he’s said he hates or called names because they’ve either supported the Harris campaign, or spoken against his, seems to be quite a lot.

Baffles me that anyone could look on and think, “hmm yes, this guy seems socially intelligent”, is beyond me.

Australian y’all user checking in. It’s not my fault there’s no plural you in English, and the local (uncommon) variant “yous” has uneducated associations. Which, of course is unfair, but such is language and society.

Anyway, thanks y’all, I’m going to keep using it.

How long do patents last for anyway? Pokemon being caught in balls must be many, many decades old by this point.

They’ve started serving ads when you skip backwards. Drives me fucking nuts.

I was willing to use the mobile app with ads because the interface is slightly less buggy.

Ad blocking on mobile web it is for me now 👍

Yes, but also yes. Whole lot of “light trucks” on your roads with worse crash safety https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jN7mSXMruEo

The commenter doesn’t deserve the downvotes

This is what I was thinking (but the younger age is younger)

In other countries, not only would the voter suppression be illegal, but racial hate speech would also land this fucker in jail.

Our of curiosity, and because I couldn’t immediately find anything. Is MoveOn actively trying to change the voting system itself?

Memes on the internet have taught me angering the swifties is not a good idea

So, if you plan an arson as a protest, is that 8 years or 18 years?

Eating your offspring seems terribly energy inefficient

You mean, as an emotional support vehicle?

I’m on the youngest side of the millennials, when do I inherit, since I often like to phone in, as these days if you want something fixed quick, you’re better off calling (in Australia at least).

Much better waiting on hold for 10 mins than who knows how many business days before the customer service inevitably copy pastes something from the FAQ that doesn’t resolve your problem.

Also, I like to call friends, on the phone. And use SMS 0_0

Again, when can I get my inheritance, thanks haha

A video which puts all the arguments better than I ever could: https://youtu.be/jN7mSXMruEo

But the notion you can only have high clearance by making your hood so massive to the point you can’t see your child as you run them over in your own driveway, doesn’t make sense.

I’d strongly encourage you to give the video a go.

These trucks are now infesting my streets to (Australia) to a lesser degree. It’s an arms race that really needs to be stopped. I hope you consider some of the points made in the video.

You’re right. Literally unplayable

Honestly, good on you so much for sharing. The fact you’re not ashamed and willing to share could save someone from the same attack, and as others have pointed out, even the most security minded of us can have lapses in judgement.

I’m really glad you weren’t screwed in the end.

Power to you, don’t let the food snobs stop you!
