  • holy shit the usb-to-AC cable is real

  • people are expected to teach their kids to wash under the foreskin, and some people apparently think it's just dandy to perform genital mutilation on their children, so no: teaching them to shave doesn't register on the weirdness scale.

  • and this is why people need to be informed of the ultimate legal loophole: the law is simply a collective agreement, if enough people make it clear to everyone else that they think the law is nonsense we can just change it regardless. It's not a magic document enforced by fae.

  • "this is not what we meant by brain plasticity"

  • i assumed it was just glass or similar, maybe the same material as those moisture-absorbing silica packets

  • weeds are plants with the capacity for spite

  • that's where you just stop trying to process things, if someone tries to talk to me while we're walking next to a loud road i just give a small laugh and shout something like "AFTER THE TRAFFIC ENDS"

  • yeah but you don't eat the pinecone lol, you pry it apart to get to the non-wooden bit, because basically the only things that eat wood are fungi and beavers.

  • there's still a lot of people who live in a place with a yard, and if most of them come together to require the ability to keep chickens there then it'll be untenable for that permission to be denied by HOAs/landlords/local government

  • lmao, oh the horror, a leftist on lemmy

  • that's moving the goalposts, the previous poster claims that you simply cannot tell the difference between sounds that don't exist in your native language, which is fucking obviously false and they should be ashamed of posting something like that

  • ...what kind of pine nuts are you eating? the ones i've eaten are just seeds, not made of wood. i wouldn't want bark or wood chips in a salad, would you?

    the plane is a classic example of survivor bias: only the planes that didn't get shot in critical areas returned, but at first the response was to add armor to the places that got shot the most, which is the wrong action since clearly if they got shot that much it didn't really matter for the survival of the plane.

  • i have no clue where the fuck people get this idea, it's clearly nonsense since people pick up accents just from living in a different country for a year or two

  • i've never understood this, i'm slightly older than 9 months and i've been perfectly able to pick up new sounds, and people learn new languages all the time..

  • dwarves all have a chronic case of flabby repairman asscrack

  • only the woody things survive, because they're woody and thus pretty difficult to put in a salad

  • are you being intentionally obtuse? yes obviously we don't have androids that can do ALL the work for us, but we have robots that can do a hell of a lot of work for us, and especially the laborious and monotonous work.

  • absolutely not, the best shitposts are genuine works of art and take tons of effort

  • what are you on about? ever look at a modern factory? they're filled with robots that do enough work to replace 10 people.

    obviously under capitalism this work just goes into making rich people richer, which is why we need to get rid of capitalism so these fancy robots we've built can actually let us live chill lives with minimal required human labour.

  • i feel like flying is something you either do fairly regularly, or you haven't even considered setting foot on a plane for 10 years.
