  1. Re:So why are fish eating plastic? on Fish Are Eating Lots of Plastic (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    So you eat plastics too? Well, I suppose it's got some vitamins, too... I'm glad someone is taking care of our environment. Thanks!

  2. Re:As an American who's born the brunt on Fish Are Eating Lots of Plastic (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    Isn't it quite a bit harder to live from paycheck to no paycheck? You make it seem really hard to live from paycheck to paycheck. Just quit ffs.

  3. Re:I have a solution on Fish Are Eating Lots of Plastic (washingtonpost.com) · · Score: 1

    "A fish will eat whatever can fit into its mouth." Sounds more like humans to me. Just add "fried" to it.

  4. Re:Stole the plot of WARGAMES on AI Could Lead To Third World War, Elon Musk Says (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1

    True. I thought Mask was a visionary, but with all these meaningless dribble that he puts out lately he diminished greatly in my eyes. To the point that I think he's stupid, really. However, I wonder if his words have been interpreted correctly in the media. It's easy to go from "I think..." to "I'm certain..." when it comes to media.

  5. Re:Well thats not creepy at all... on Facebook Has Mapped the Entire Human Population of Earth (cnbc.com) · · Score: 1

    I can tell you how. X+Y=XY In other words, you've been mentioned. And yes, that is creepy. :/

  6. Re:This looks like it would inflate and stiffen. on Elon Musk Posts First Photo of SpaceX's New Spacesuit (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    It made me wonder what your toilet looks like.

  7. This is so easy to explain. Is there something you don't like to eat? Broccoli maybe? Well, his daughter doesn't like meat the same way you don't like broccoli. I also cannot stand the taste of meat. Easy, eh?

  8. Yes, they will tell you because they have to tell you. Otherwise you'd serve them something that they won't eat. How's that a joke? How do you treat people with allergies? "I cannot eat peanuts" - "ha ha ha, you cannot eat peanuts, have just a little!" ? How do you know I wouldn't throw up or get a diarrhoea? You just don't force people to eat anything they don't want to eat. It's simply thei choice and you should be able to give people a choice. I don't find this the least funny. And no, I wouldn't mind you eating this fake meat. Enjoy it all you want. It's just that I can't. I hope this is easy for you to understand?

  9. Same here, bro. :)

  10. I would consider it ridiculous to eat this after so many years being vegetarian and vegan. There's just no need in me. However, I think it's a positive thing to have for those who, for some to me unknown reason, still crave meat. Maybe it is a way for them to eventually become vegetarians at least... who knows?

  11. Re:I'm not sure on Google Invites Users To 'Check If You're Clinically Depressed' (theverge.com) · · Score: 1

    Of course, because it's healthy and it makes you feel good. It's a natural anti-depressant.

  12. I get none of this on Debian Linux with Firefox ESR and I usually reboot only if there is power outage, or I go away for a longer period. Maybe it's time to switch?

  13. Dystopian *future*? on Jonathan Coulton's New Dystopian Album Becomes a Graphic Novel (jonathancoulton.com) · · Score: 1

    "a corporate-owned dystopia where humans have become dutiful, unthinking, unfeeling worker bees attending to menial tasks amid a culture engineered to keep them unthinking and unfeeling..." I don't think that's future. It's the present.

  14. Those were the days... on What Happened To Winamp? (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Those were the days... but today I use whatever is there to play music with. Usually VLC. Dedicated music players have become obsolete IMHO. VLC does it really good and it also plays every other thing I throw at it. Really, I can't understand the need for a dedicated MP3 only music player. It's so 90s.

  15. Linux-XP Frankenstein... on Ask Slashdot: What Would You Pay To See Open Sourced? · · Score: 1

    I would like to see a Windows XP/7 "desktop environment" with Linux underneath. It would get rid of many Windows file system and OS shortcomings while giving us a very usable and simple to use OS. So simple and so "unobtanium", eh? :( Although I must admit I really love MATE DE and it could become just what I'm asking for really soon. Almost there.

  16. I don't need a study... on Energy Drinks May Trigger Future Substance Use, Says Study (medscape.com) · · Score: 1

    I don't need a study to tell me that people who like to use substances will eventually use other. more potent substances. What are these people paid for again? To do useless studies?

  17. Don't you think... on WordPress Bans Fascist Website Linked To Charlottesville Killer (fastcompany.com) · · Score: 1

    Don't you think it would be advisable not to give these creeps any more news coverage? It's too much and people are people. Some could decide that these nutwits are victims and worth considering joining their ranks. Just ignore them. Far from mind keeps them - far from mind. Easy.

  18. Re:Already Failed. on 64-bit Firefox is the New Default on 64-bit Windows (mozilla.org) · · Score: 1

    My experience with Firefox ESR on Debian Linux is quite the contrary: very stable, rather normal RAM usage and I do visit "strange" websites regularly.

  19. Re:Black Screen on 64-bit Firefox is the New Default on 64-bit Windows (mozilla.org) · · Score: 1

    I've never seen anything like that in Debian Linux with Firefox ESR, ever. It's also been very stable. I always tell people to use Firefox ESR.

  20. Re:time and distance scaling on Astrophysicist Believes Technologically-Advanced Species Extinguish Themselves (sciencedaily.com) · · Score: 1

    On another note, about our superb immune systems, if you're allergic to peanuts and you eat a peanut, what will happen? Now give a peanut to any animal we know... it's complete BS.

  21. Re:time and distance scaling on Astrophysicist Believes Technologically-Advanced Species Extinguish Themselves (sciencedaily.com) · · Score: 1

    Are you an alien? Cause we're not all that resistant. How about I put you in a cage with a hungry lion? Would you survive?

  22. Re:Critical thinking should be taught from the sta on Study Finds Vaccine Science Outreach Only Reinforced Myths (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 1

    Indeed, we should teach kids critical thinking instead of filling their heads with fairytales.

  23. Re:What could possibly go wrong? on NASA Looks At Reviving Atomic Rocket Program (newatlas.com) · · Score: 1

    Getting married could kill you, too. If your wife is a serial killer. :/

  24. Very good thinking. Have you read some Jiddu Krishnamurti lately? I love this guy's philosophy.

  25. "It feels like the producers and directors are making these more for themselves than for the audience?" Actually the problem is they're making these movies for the *general* audience, catering to the lowest denominator. That's how you get so many dumb films.
