Sounds utterly weird, but I’m intrigued

Oh man, yes. Dream Scenario. It went so very awry when it became clear what it’s actually about.

I don’t need the money but I’ll fuckin take it 😎

Neither really convey that it did hit Earth('s atmosphere) and just burned up harmlessly. The title reads like it missed, in which case it doesn’t make much sense to me to mention Siberia at all.

Why would you share this thought with the rest of us

Actually they misspelled ‘ware’, they’re talking about who the nation’s biggest hero is afraid of.

It’s an API call which emails a guy who just does it real fast by hand

Idk what tank this is, but the M1 Abrams is 26 ft long and the F350 is ~21 with the extra seats, I don’t think the comparison is unreasonable. There might be some perspective distorting things (doesn’t look like a 20-25% difference there) but… Not all that much really.

I think the perspective issue is that the person you’ve dragged down is further back than the bicycle. Try dragging them just in front of the bicycle by the tank and I think they’ll still look tiny.

That does not particularly clear anything up

I don’t really want to be involved in public transport people fuck on. But other than that you’re describing trains. Busses are for short distance travel which I don’t personally think requires much more luxury than a seat and a window.

Instead of “s/he is” you can say “they are”, even though it’s singular. “They” is the preferred pronoun for any situation where gender is unclear or (usually, but not always) for non binary people.

This is a good point. Especially because public transport comes out on top even if you consider them half empty, or cars full.

It seems odd that the average would be a range… Or that the range would include 5! I think 1 3/5 = 8/5 is more likely. Especially since they go on to assume 2 passengers, which would be pretty disengenuous if the average was higher than 2.

I’m sorry it was me. Now I transitioned so I’m the one in the bottom picture too 😎

Very much depends what kind of programming you’re doing. Graphics uses shittons of maths. Data analysis/data science is maths/stats heavy. Other types less so!

If the purpose of a system is what it does, then it seems the purpose of democracy is the self flagellation of the masses.

Idk how easy it easy to just build a nuke… I feel like the long range missile is the hard part, right? The actual nuclear part isn’t quite so complex. Maybe I’m wrong.

Jokes on you, Zuck, I’ve been using it to advise me on my Warhammer campaigns for MONTHS!

One downfall of what I only hesitantly refer to as modern feminism (although really I’m talking about terfs and the terf-adjacent) is that it has painted men as dangerous by default. I’m also a trans woman so I’ve seen both sides of the coin, too… I do feel less safe now, this is true. Many things were easier when I was living as a man. But I was never dangerous or an abuser.

Nonetheless, a former partner used accusations of abuse against me and turned so many people on me. The only ones that stuck by me were former romantic partners, who knew the accusations couldn’t have been true. For everyone else, it was so easy to accept that a man - even a clearly gentle one - would be an abuser.

In reality I’ve been a victim of abuse - physical, emotional, sexual… All long before I transitioned.
