I’ve heard this is basically the same reason why autocad will never move away from their fucking terrible UI. Too many people have spent too many hours getting really good at using it, and the investment cliff is too big now.

Did the Proud Boys not understand

No

Between Anonymous, Occupy, and proud boys all using the same mask, the only shared symbolism for the Guy Fawkes mask is really “resistance” of some kind. Which is so broad, it’s hard to call it a symbol at all.

It’s achieved by saying, “I know you don’t really mean that” when someone says some weird shit

And what if, as frequently happens, they do in fact mean it?

So, how DO you have a conversation with a group that thinks you or your friends aren’t people?

Yep, this is a huge fucking problem.

Top bad the often proposed suggestion of “let’s just skip right to the end” isn’t actually a solution.

Person A wants to kill 1 million people.

Person B wants to kill 50 million people.

You: “what’s a trolley?”

“Unlike Kamala, I will support Israel’s right to win its war on terror. They have to win! And instead of pandering to the Jihad sympathizers and America-hating radicals, we will deport them.”

• D. Trump, verbatim, on Nov 6th.

But yeah no, this will definitely improve things.

Most people don’t want to break the sacred bond of pretending you’re busy, because then next time, they might get caught for doing the same.

Most dangerous thing anywhere is cars, tbh.

Step 1: don’t invade poland.

Step 2: stop being Nazis

There, that’s how Hitler could have won.

And extremely predictable

Lipo’s can absolutely burn your house down, but only while overcharging. Igniting a battery while you’re walking around with it will at most burn your pants down, not kill you.

You can absolutely make a lipo battery “explode” by overheating it by drawing too much power. But it’s the kind of explosion where it spews hot gas and maybe catches on fire. You’ll definitely get hurt, but that’s about it.

You can do MUCH worse by overcharging it. (note the size of that battery). There will eventually be a fireball if you overcharge it and keep overcharging it when it’s already swollen to a balloon. But you generally don’t charge stuff while it’s in your pocket.

These were actual killing-people-explosions. Lipo batteries don’t do that.

Secret backdoors… And planted plastic explosives.

Because they have a LOT of money riding on convincing people not to vote blue. Gee, I wonder who benefits from that most.

Surprise, Space Karen, places other than the US have actual employee protection laws.

In addition to hazardous materials regulations, I also do workplace safety, and this doesn’t surprise me at aaaaall. People get really casual around stuff that kills you slowly.

I mean, spent fuel is actually quite lethal when not packaged, but you get something like 300-400MWh out of a kilo of fuel. And that’s significantly more than I’ll use in my lifetime.

I’d gladly keep a kilo of dry-casked spent fuel in my house. It’d make an excellent coffee table or something, if a bit hard to move. I would absolutely not put a lifetime supply of benzene anywhere near my house.

Edit: it would make a shitty coffee table. 1 kilo of uranium oxide is just under 100ml

That’s uhh, not what that says. One of the two mentions of half life are your body converting cyanide into thiocyanate, which will kill you and depending on your last bowel movement, make your corpse into hazardous waste itself.

The other mention is hydrogen cyanide in air, which is lighter than air and will decompose back into cyanide eventually, scattering it over a large area. Which will technically make it go away from your site, but spreading toxic waste over the countryside is illegal for a reason.
