It’s shockingly tricky to answer precisely, but the commonly held value is that a human brain runs on about 20w, regardless of the computational load placed on it.

Pangrams! My goto has been How quickly daft jumping zebras vex! for a little while, it’s just so silly.

how the did i end up 4 comments deep on a topic about a fuckin american celebrity

Well if I’m remembering right: you didn’t understand an article, pretended you did, were condescending about it then hastily attempted to save face by trying several times to reframe the issue.

I’m really not the right person to answer this one, I’m in this as deep as you are with just as little an idea as to why.

The July 2025 data shows that Windows’ market share on Steam dropped by 0.44% while Linux’s market share grew by 0.32%.

While okay this is growth, it’s not exactly meteoric. Hopefully the trend picks up steam (cough) as the win10 EOL approaches.

In defense of the generally indefensible masses of reddit, Hansen is hardly a figure above criticism. Fetishizing vigilante justice, embracing of the far-right, his emphasis on spectacle without regard for the community, that time where they more or less killed a guy… Child molesters are horrible (tho why we keep electing them, I’ll never know), but we don’t need to hail and laud someone as our champion just because they agree.

Hansen’s documentary has an opportunity to shed light on online grooming as a pervasive problem endemic to all online spaces but instead appears to further his usual moral panic about how there’s people lurking behind the bushes, waiting to nab your children while they do the things they enjoy. His productions have never been better than any other schlock reality television, but with a veneer of legitimacy from his LARPing with law enforcement. Targeting a popular piece of pop culture, instead of an expose on say grooming rings on discord or the constant abuses of children from religious institutions as facets of the ever-increasing access children have to unmoderated online interaction seems to be just as morally vapid as his work has ever been.

It’s always saddening to see people regurgitatating the kind of jingoistic rhetoric alt-right parties the world over rely on, as some kind of edgily scathing indictment of just american culture. If an american were to discount everyone from a culture like this, it’d be quite rightly called out as unacceptable. Why is the same behavior somehow acceptable just because it’s perceived as turnabout? Doesn’t that paint them as identical in rhetoric, but somehow even more bitter in motivation? Just disappointing…

Okay sure, let me clarify again: An article which is extremely supportive of Pedro Pascal is a comedically bad choice to go with when you’re attempting to establish the legitimacy of the claim that “most people” are sick of him (which remember, was the initial position taken which people are arguing against).

Ah perhaps I was unclear: I am perplexed by your decision to use that article as support for your position, even more so given the recent revelation that you read and (presumably) understood it. It seems rather self-contradictory, given the content of the article is a fairly scathing indictment of the very concept of the “backlash phase”.

Boy so you just didn’t read that article at all, didja?

An actor single handedly keeping a good 40% of the LGBTQ community off the ledge right now. Also he played The Mandalorian, and is a very vocal supporter of queer / trans rights (his sister is trans)

You know previously to this admin, there were a couple programs I knew of where they’d quite knowingly release these accounts then monitor the activity, to stay ahead of the various bad actors. To my knowledge, both programs have been canceled by the trump admin, but those accounts are still very much around just now they’re totally unmonitored. Wankers.

The Bible doesn’t say God stopped at Adam and Eve.

Yes, but I wasn’t talking about just the old testament, as that’s not the claim you made.

From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands.

It’s pretty explicit that he didn’t make more than one man. Or maybe it was just a biblical harem anime?

It was a promo stunt from the company that’s selling the aftermarket parts for the CT - and watching their other videos, basically everything they’ve done to it is cosmetic. Camper bed, goofy bumpers, locking plastic wheel covers, tie rods that are a whopping 4mm thicker… and that’s it. No reinforcing of basically any other components, and it really shows.

Lmfao buddy, so what does it say then? Because I’m getting the feeling you’re not exactly familiar with anything to do with linguistic theory, and it sure would be easy and satisfying to disabuse me of that notion. Look at me, I’m right here, calling your bluff while taking a biiiiiig ol’ sip of my coffee. Make me eat my tasty (and context dependent) words, and pull a comedy spit-take in the process! The power is yours, the ball is in your court, dazzle us oh knower-of-truths!

Nah fam, this is near enough a perfect universal truth.

It quite literally is. All encoding of information is definitionally contextual, language (formal or not) is no exception. This doesn’t change because the language is spoken.

They do change contextually, though? That’s sorta the whole basis of language.

… What?

It’s not much different from western cultures, though india does have a problem with sexism in (and outside of) the workplace. But are you really arguing demographic semantics to avoid the point at hand?
