TIL classical Europe had cocoa and synthetic amphetamines

Hm, which of these are actually stimulants (i.e. substances that increase alertness)? The ones I know seem to be depressants, painkillers and hallucinogens, which seem less useful immediately before battle than stimulants.

It wouldn't be so hateable if there weren't so many good things about it!

I’ll ride his Arch til the day I can’t. Not a scratch.

Riding a vehicle without ever letting it get a scratch in Cyberpunk 2077 is quite impressive. I think I "scratched" Jackie's bike in under a minute when I got it in my first playthrough.

Now I want to know what kinds of stimulants were available to Roman-era Germanic people!

I anthropomorphocized the algorithm for the sake of humour.

smh algo just wants to ride the tube and feeling so attacked right now

I rarely use YouTube as a source of information, it's a source of entertainment like 95% of the time for me and most of the rest is stuff like natural science documentations, which isn't really subject to the kinds of issues you describe.

Maybe it's just a list of their favourite artists to ride the tube to.

Mostly people who are really into music, which is cool, and are chill. I had a flat mate once who was into metal, chill guy but not great as a flat mate (nothing to do with music, just flat mate stuff). I know some subsets of metal draw in people who are the bad kind of weird, but I haven't (knowingly) met those. TBH I haven't met a metal head in years, though (at least not knowingly).

I hate using apps for things that could be websites, to the point that I don't use certain kinds of services that are app-only (e.g. e-scooter rentals).

Baboons are monkeys! But we don't know if she knows that, so it might still be baboons.

There's also a Rammstein song about it ("Mein Teil").

Would be funny to give your enemies a prion disease!

"Despite the fact that for most of human history bodily autonomy [...] was the norm"

LOL

Even the most naive interpretion of my comment would be that I hold both to the same standard.

Which I don't, Biden is just so obviously wrong on this that it feels like a waste of time to even comment on it. But if you're going to comment on it, don't just be so obviously wrong in the opposite direction!

Your brain is being a bro for once! Good job Tar_Alcaran's brain 👍

Well, there's a difference between "the normal version contains some sugar" and "the normal version is almost entirely made out of sugar".

Why can't it be both? He neither did everything, nor did he nothing.

He certainly did SOME things. Not enough, but IMO it's too black and white to claim that he did nothing.
