Boomkop3 , to nostupidquestions in Could I patent harmful technology to prevent it from being put on the market?

Pretty sure companies like bp and shell do exactly that. Except the harm reduction is to their oil profits. Can’t have competing tech on the market

bizarroland ,

A lot of people accuse them of this in regards to some sort of like water powered engine. So far the evidence seems to be that there's no way to split water into hydrogen and oxygen that uses less power than the resulting burning of the gas can generate.

I said that to say take these accusations with a grain of salt.

Boomkop3 ,

Oh yea, you may have noticed a tinfoil hat on those telling you that. You can’t make energy out of nothing, splitting it costs as much energy as combining would get you…

…minus a tonne of losses. Not that oil is remotely efficient in comparison.

I heard about solar cell tech and such. Apparently they bought the patents and said they’re going to use it expand into green energy. Which they never did, obviously

you need to get a different device. As others suggested a watch is your best bet but dont expect those options to respect your privacy any more or less than google.

Cowboy hat, maybe?

Edit: No, more like a Mountie hat.

I didn’t know KDE had layer shell 🤔. I knew it had some wlrootsy stuff but that’s interesting. Looks really nice though

There is no competitor, and no other game offers the same raid experience as d2

SteleTrovilo , to startrek in Who had it worse: Enterprise-D or Voyager?

If you’re a crew member on the Enterprise D, you have died. Probably more than once. Between Timescape, Cause and Effect, Yesterday’s Enterprise, and All Good Things, the ENT-D has been blown to smithereens with all crew on board multiple times.

Voyager did this too, but far fewer times that I recall.

A flock of cocks crow at dawn while a murder of crows roost in their nests.

Innuendo in my ass.

If I’d seen this post a few minutes earlier it could have been Good Old-fashioned lover boy in my ass, and a bit later would have been I want it all in my ass.

The Queen back catalogue is full of winners for this game.

Chrome, because Ticketmaster can eat a bag of dicks.

callouscomic , to nostupidquestions in What started “weirdo” as a slur just recently?

It’s always been a slur to differently abled people. Some grow up and go through life hearing it constantly as a way to shrug them off as disposable or something. It’s a way assholes in society treat them like shit.

What’s gone on recently is offensive cause there are real people who through life being called that and other names as a way to disregard them. Having to hear how it’s been openly used lately isn’t great, but people don’t get it. They think some things are harmless merely cause it doesn’t affect them or someone they care about.

infinite_ass , to nostupidquestions in What started “weirdo” as a slur just recently?

I just recently heard it used that way. To describe “conservatives”. Much like “yikes” I guess. They assign a new meaning to it and thus it is so.

Words are different these days. Like, words used to have a secondhand association with reality. But now it’s thirdhand.

language evolves with every generation. this isn’t new

infinite_ass ,

Language evolves with every generation, yes. But I offered something different from that.

I offered that the relationship between word and thing was becoming more tenuous. Like two telephones drawing further apart. The conversation breaking up.

We talk less about reality now. We talk more about talking.

ColonelThirtyTwo ,

And how is calling conservatives “weird” how you describe?

Compared to conservatives calling anything left of them “communist”, calling a party backing a felon president and a vice president that can’t even make small talk at a doughnut store “weird” is very fitting.

infinite_ass ,

Ugh. Too emotional. Too rhetorical.

Mostly Neverwinter Nights.

We’ve had more active players on the server I DM for, so I’ve been popping in more often to run quests and ambience for all the newbies.

This is probably well beyond the scope of what these nights are about, but I do wonder what they did with the “Picard” season three bridge set.

Dave Blass said much of it was packed up in crates and shipped.

To where is the question.
