If you’re doing a factorial the long way, is there any reason to multiply anything times one? It seems like you could just skip it, but I’m not a math guy.

Throw his ass in the volcano.

It’s always confused me when people make a huge distinction between friendship and romance. By my thinking, a romantic relationship is a type of friendship. Like squares and rectangles.

The idea that you could be in a committed relationship with someone who’s not your friend seems bizarre and hostile somehow.

AI =/= shitpost, rather AI == shit.

This is DEI for robots. If you have to lower the standards to qualify; you don’t.

There is an English equivalent: burgher. (pronounced like hamburger)

It just means a “person of town”. And you don’t have to memorize ludicrous French spelling.

If insurance companies were getting hosed by injured people, why don’t they look into ways that cars might cause fewer injuries instead of abandoning the injured?

Capitalism is the enemy of reason.

As someone who’s worked in restaurants what I recognize about this bathroom is all the beautiful tile. What that means is that somewhere in the house, there is a hose that spits boiling hot water. With this hose you can clean and sanitize a bathroom stall without ever having to step inside of it.

The first restaurant I ever worked in was a fast food joint and they cleaned the whole dining room this way. They had that water heater turned up to fuck-you and it was a little scary.

I know that Xwitter is usually a reliable source, but 1000nm is outside visual range and therefore not green. Green lasers in the ~500nm range will absolutely damage a camera sensor, but you’ll need good aim and sustained illumination.

In both instances, you’re the moral agent who gets to decide. And it’s not our advantage in intelligence or wisdom, it’s our advantage in mass.

Morals have power dynamics, CMM.

Fun fact: strip clubs don’t employ the girls.

They’re “independent contractors” who actually pay the house to use the stage or the VIP rooms. This creates a natural filter so that girls that are less popular make less money until they move on. In a mid-sized city like mine, you’ll have a hierarchy of clubs from the one with the richest clients and the hottest dancers, to the poorest clients and lest attractive dancers. Also there will be a club where black dudes are more welcome. (often the “worst” club)

So, stripping was gig work before the term. And it’s no surprise that extra-exploitative labor practices were tested out on women first.

I just wanna be clear, I’m not downvoting Sarkeesian, I’m downvoting AI slop.

Why is Hitler popular in India? Is it just an anti-British thing?

I know that some Irish and Indians sought alliance with Hitler to aid in their own liberation. Finland did the same thing, not because Britain was an Allied nation, but because the USSR was.

This is a classic example of the decline of the American standard of living!

Boomer misogynists were able to hate their wives. GenX hated on their girlfriends. GenY is forced to hate women in theory.

The responses to this post are why I like lemmy.

I read this meme and dropped in here to pile on the Christian, only to find out that ya’ll are more knowledgeable and kinder than I am.

Tax that peckerwood until he starts singing spirituals.

No TERF is a feminist. It’s just in the name. Like how North Korea calls it’self “Democratic”, and the Nazis called themselves “Socialist”.

What’s going on with Dawkins? I have followed his decline with interest.

I saw a YT video last week that referenced Dawkins’ work, and I was like, Oh yea, he used to be a respected scientist before he became an Epstein Island public bigot and TERF. Fame did to Dawkins what the One Ring did to Gollam.

If you’re explaining, you’re loosing.

This doesn’t make any sense. China is running out of land? Solar panels are the thing taking up too much space?

Better to build the parking lots on water so that valuable land can be used for solar panels.
