I’m not sure gators understand the idea of not being hungry.

Wow, I didn’t know that was an option, I thought we did 4k, then skipped to 6k and 8k. What’s the actual resolution on that thing?

No one wants to impress Jodie Foster anymore.

There were 2 confirmed assassination attempts on Donald Trump last year and potentially one more where an armed and suspicious individual was trying to get into a location where Trump was but the individual claims he wasn’t planning anything malicious.

Wikipedia reports ~8 more incidents during the years where he was involved in his first presidential term.

I think Biden only had the one with the box truck.

I don’t think there is a good one. It sounds like this is another one of those things where the rules were mostly relying on the idea that the people wouldn’t elect someone who was expected to try to do something like this.

51% disapprove and 44% of approve. It is kinda crazy that we only have 5% left who still just aren’t concerned one way or another.

Shit, I think we’ve all been asking ourselves that on a regular basis for years now and here we are still regularly surprised.

Man, that rumor may have spread nationwide, or else I think I knew that guy.

Yeah, it’s kind of hard to come up with a cutoff. There’s lots of really old vague theories that had the right idea. Eventually you get to the point where you’re thinking that there was probably a caveman somewhere who built a fire in a cave and wondered what would happen if the whole world filled with smoke.

From a science perspective, Svante seems to have mostly had it, but applying the science really started to coalesce in the 1950s. The American Petroleum Institute actually funded a study in 1959 to figure out if they were really going to destroy the planet. Their findings were a bit more extreme than what actually worked out, they thought New York would be underwater around 1990, but it pretty well established things.

Ocarina of Time soundtrack lives in my head rent free too. For me, its usually Lost Woods, everyone who played remembers the tune even if they don’t know the name.

I know this was a joke, but I was kinda wondering when we first started talking about Climate Change as an issue.

It looks like some guy in Sweden named ‘Svante Arrhenius’ was the first to really get everything properly worked out and documented back in 1896, but the first time it really started to go mainstream seems like it was with ‘economist William Nordhaus’ back in 1975 just feeling like it might be starting to become a real problem.

Not sure if this is optimistic or not, I feel like it’s going to suck for awhile until we just don’t trust anything digital ever again. There will just be an assumption that anything digital is not real. We’ll go back to “If it’s on the internet, it must be true” being a joke. Also not sure if that’s a good or bad thing.

Haven’t seen one exactly like this, but looks like a lock out tag out deal.

I feel like banning all direct links gets you 90% of the way there. No referral codes, if a user wants to find your site, they have to go looking, automated spam is harder, etc.

I disagree with calling her a clown, but I do worry that it would be hard to get the american populace behind her as that is not an uncommon opinion. A large part of it is likely based on her gender and age, if she was a 60-year old white man with the same ideas, we likely wouldn’t have this problem.

We tend to underestimate how large reddit is and also tend to overestimate how much the quality of the communities we participate in affect the average reddit user.

It grew pretty heavily in 2024, there are other places that collect stats too, but in most ways that you can easily measure, it’s moving in that direction. 2023 did have a small blip in comments posted per year, but it got back on track fairly quick.

When I upgraded from a Pixel 6a to a Pixel 8, I was really surprised to find out that not only was my phone slightly smaller, it also had a slightly larger screen. I’m not super happy with google, but the things they focus on with the Pixel line has me pretty bought in.

For me, I’ve always gone by the typical english definition of “combining and heating” ingredients.

If you’ve combined more than one item together and applied heat somehow, that counts as cooking, otherwise you’re doing something else. Like, if I made myself a cold sandwich, I wouldn’t say I ‘cooked’ a sandwich and the same for if I threw a burrito in the microwave.

So, from that, as long as you either warmed up the beans or threw the bread in the toaster and those items weren’t pre-combined somehow, I’d personally say you cooked it.

Don’t threaten me with a good time.
