i did that once. it did not work as well as i had hoped. i’m still not sure why.

just post them in some science or health community, depending on how close it gets to people’s everyday-lifes

i get a bad hangover from alcohol, but not the next day, but immediately, like 5 minutes after drinking.

theoretically, the thing that should happen as europe imports more from china than it exports to china, is that there’s a net flux of currency into china, which would devalue the euro and inflate the yuan. this should increase price levels in china while also lowering them in europe, until production capabilities can shift back to europe.

renewable energy took a long time to take off because the cost of it had to fall low enough first, which can only happen through substantial subsidies, which only germany and china were willing to do. germany cancelled the project sometime around 2012 while china pulled all the way through.

IMO the best way to get rid of cars (in your own life) is to not live on the countryside.

the best recipes have no more than 3 ingredients, and the instruction is literally to just mix them cold. if you have to heat some up, do not use more than 1 pan.

would you like to know whether you’re speaking to an actual human on the other end of the line?

“bot speak” becomes unintelligible to humans.

at some point we will give a name of this phenomenon of internet users who are completely undecipherable for normal people … and call it autism (/hj)

It’ll be bots writing articles for bots, bots summarising them for other bots, bots commenting underneath, and bots measuring the engagement.

huh that’s weird, it’s not paywalled for me.

uhh, the bots are requesting multiple sites in parallel, not in series, so it’s difficult to say “hey look, that user moves through 5 pages per second”. instead, you’d say “hey look, there’s 5 users each crawling through 1 page per second”.

today i learned - for stuff that you learned today
showerthoughts - for stuff that you spontaneously thought of (non-political)
uhm … all the transfem communities?

oh and what makes them special: you can learn new things easily :p so it’s like “microdosing knowledge”

uuh enjoying a day in the summer i see >.<

everybody knows that you can’t trust wikipedia for topics where a third-party might profit from manipulating what’s written in the article, such as a company brand might remove criticism from its page. this is basic knowledge i think (or at least i hope)

i’ve become convinced that it’s mostly about the birthrate. people want their kids to have many kids again, but that’s less likely if the kids are gay.

i’ve long suspected that the real reason why we can’t have a casual sleepover at our neighbor’s is because it would weaken parent’s total control and ability to pressure their children to adhere to stupid commands.

yes, and alcohol is a fungus goo

turns out that everything that’s non-vegan has been processed by something other than a plant.

(idk whether fungus are considered vegan. in case they are, even some vegan products are processed by other things.)

that’s exactly how 100% of college discussion groups go
