Nah, we'll do like we did with the Spanish flu where we put our heads in the sand about a new flu strain from a farm in Kansas and name it after the first place to publicly acknowledge it exists.

Ok random question: the Walgreens near me almost never asks for my ID when I pickup my Adderall, is it really not required for that? I thought it was a hard rule to check ID for any controlled substances

The Titanic probably wouldn't have sunk if it hit the iceberg head on. Clearly the Tesla simply mistook the train for an iceberg and itself for an ocean-liner and opted for a more ideal collision. The driver should have disabled 'sea mode' if they didn't want that behavior, it's all clearly spelled out in the owners manual.

If it's not fully capable of self driving then maybe they shouldn't call it full self driving

Maybe it shouldn't be called full self driving if it's not fully capable of self driving

8 minutes? Damn, it takes me that long just to boil water on the stove

Forget 75°, just 65°C (150°F) will give you third degree burns in 2 seconds:

Most adults will suffer third-degree burns if exposed to 150 degree water for two seconds. Burns will also occur with a six-second exposure to 140 degree water or with a thirty second exposure to 130 degree water. Even if the temperature is 120 degrees, a five minute exposure could result in third-degree burns.

here's Destin from smartereveryday experiencing hypoxia. he's told to his face that he is going to die if he doesn't put his mask back on and get some oxygen, yet the whole time he has a giant grin on his face

I'm staunchly opposed to the death penalty, but if you're going to kill someone nitrogen induced hypoxia is one of the most humane ways to do so.

nah, it was digitalcore

lies, sometimes I still need to flip usb-c to get it in. there's still a hidden dimension there, it's just better hidden than before

I've only been part of one private tracker, and I got kicked from them after not logging in for a month despite meeting ratios. haven't bothered since then

There's other antidepressants that don't do that. Mirtazapine for instance helps sleep, and has no real impact on sex. It'll make you hungry, though. Buproprion will mess with your sleep but not sex, but you'll have no appetite. They all have their own unique collection of side effects, well worth looking into other options if SSRI's aren't well tolerated

Ah, right. How could I forget. Systemic issues are solely the fault of us as individuals for not singlehandedly solving them ourselves

every barrier helps, most suicide attempts are impulse decisions. forcing people to jump 30 feet into a net before they can jump a lethal distance makes it that much harder to follow through.

A "no stupid questions" for Linux would be super helpful. A big one for me is shell commands. Like are shell commands different between distros, or do I have to install something to have certain commands? How do I even know what commands I do have?

Idk about other phones, but at least on my pixel the volume down button is also a shutter button. And double pressing the lock screen button opens the camera

too many bits of magnetic gunk collect on those for my liking. Not as much of an issue on laptops, but with a phone carried in a pocket all day it quickly became an issue for me

Idk of any phone that had them built in, I just used one of those magnetic usb adapters you find on amazon

Even if they gave us a second usb-c port instead of a 3.5mm jack I'd be fine with that, don't make me choose between charging and decent audio

If they gave us a second usb-c port instead I wouldn't complain so much. So dumb that I have to choose between charging and audio

Big difference between being walking distance from groceries and needing to drive there. Bagging a few days worth of groceries is a lot faster than 2 weeks worth
