Non-sarcastic reply:

Horseshoe theory isn’t so much about “the far-left is the same as the far-right” as it is about “all authoritarians derive power from the same human instincts” and the further left or right you go, the more authoritarian you have to be in order to achieve the social narrative you’re aiming for.

Edit: misplaced word

They are just different flavor of far right.

It sucks when you’re led to believe you can trust people whom you definitely should not trust. Universities, like all other organizations with people in them, are full of broken people who don’t know how to respect those with whom they disagree. My former supervisor (and underlings) cost me a lot more than thousands of dollars of therapy. But I know I have to forgive them, or else I’ll just perpetuate the cycle in creative ways I can’t imagine.

…coolant to warm enough to evaporate the moisture…

Where I come from, we just scrape off enough ice to see where you’re going, and crack a window to keep it dry enough the interior doesn’t freeze. But, hey, if you know how to leave early enough to get to places on time in a warm cabin, more power to you 😉

…in Chicago … pre-heating the car is a must 3 months of the year.

I don’t believe you’ve lived anywhere cold for very long. Cold places existed long before remote start. The car warms up while you finish shoveling and brushing off the car. You’re warm from shoveling, and the car is ready to go. If it’s just cold and you’re late to whatever, you sit your shivering ass down behind the wheel and drive away anyways…

It probably boils down to the definition of “user” vs. owner/admin/host … But I wouldn’t be surprised if those definitions were unclear or missing entirely.

As they say: Some people want to watch the world burn… Other people want to carry the torches.

I salute your bravery.

The chemistry is substantially different, so we’ll probably have to wait until scientists run some tests to get a more precise set of parameters that affect degradation. I expect failure modes like dendrites are basically impossible with solid-state, but electrode cracking is still possible. There might even be new and exciting ways they can degrade! Regardless, this is still great news.

This seems like misinformation… The House is in recess until September.

There’s a “block user” feature in Lemmy. It’s useful in situations like these. Some people never learn the limits of vulgarity.

Pretty sure they’re either a troll or wildly ignorant. Either way, it’s probably safe to just ignore them.

Ahh, so… crypto, which is based on crypto, can be used to pay for treatments to crypto.

Got it.

Do you mean to say that crypto is based on crypto? Crazy!

Ugh, don’t get me started. By “American Christians” I assume you mean “Christian Nationalists” … Christian Nationalism is about as Christian as the moon is made of cheese:

But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ…

I work at a father son activity centre…

That’s great!

…you would be shocked at how few women I see spending time with their own children!

I’m not at all shocked. Selfish behavior isn’t exclusive to men. Women are also deeply flawed humans.

These are US based and based on separated parents.

I provided non-anecdotal evidence, and you shit on it? What are your priorities?

Selectively observing statistics doesn’t give a good representation of real life, but shitting on other people for selectively observing statistics doesn’t help, either.

If you’ve been alive for more than 30 seconds, it’s not just anecdotal. But to appease the challenge, anyways: https://www.census.gov/content/dam/Census/library/publications/2020/demo/p60-269.pdf There’s a massive imbalance between custodial fathers and custodial mothers. Even worse is the imbalance in child support negligence.

Can we please just admit that there are normal biological/social/economic/perceived/identity differences between men and women? That’s not to say all of those differences are good or desirable, or that they are without variation, but can we at least recognize the state of our world without shunning those with different viewpoints?

Harsh words. After all, Rankine is best.

Turns out there’s a lot of historical context. Also, whether it was God or Satan who influenced David is somewhat ambiguous thanks to quirks in translation.

I display a clock at work that I proudly label as “Standard Time” year-round. Screw daylight stealings.

Audio, like a lot of physical systems, involve logarithmic scales, which is where floating-point shines. Problem is, all the other physical systems, which are not logarithmic, only get to eat the scraps left over by IEEE 754. Floating point is a scam!
