Wait, my body's own heat is enough? Always has been.

☝️🤓 Just about all thermoplastics are recyclable.
…they just aren't being recycled, because it's expensive, energy intensive and overall not a great solution to a problem that shouldn't exist in the first place.
I'm currently weighing the odds of possibly saving a deer from becoming road kill, against the inconvenience of wearing a jacket as a deer.
I am unironically undecided.
I mean… the Finns are using paint for a similar purpose.
If I read the cited sources and they turn out to be a bunch of untested hypotheses based on poorly conducted studies… I'll be mad.
Just skimming through it makes a bad first impression.
…I'm not even trying to be derisive. I'm just really angry at how much "there's a study" has become "there's proof". And I shouldn't even be mad because communicating that difference should be the authors' job.
If you value your time, don't read any further because I'm just going to vent a little:
So I lack any formal education (apart from ficking school). The best thing I can say about myself is that I can hold and mostly understand a conversation with people who are actually educated in their field.
But some studies are bad. Like bad-bad. So bad that I think, most people who can read should be able to recognize their flaws if they actually read them.
For example:
I read a study a while back about genetic (as opposed to learned) prepositions of monkeys in relation to their biological sex and preference for toys.
The methodology was bad, but here's the shittiest part imo: At the end of the study, the researchers found that of the 130 or so monkeys, only about half showed any preference for any kind toy. So the researchers excluded the unbiased monkeys from the test. Of the remaining monkeys, still only the males showed any preference for the "male" toys. So the females were also excluded. In the end, only 30 monkeys actually counted, because they showed the hypothesized difference in their preferences. And even those only showed a delta of 10-30% in the time they spent with the toys.
The study should have concluded that most monkeys don't give a shit if a toy has wheels (like a shopping cart, which apparently makes it a "male" toy) or if it's soft, like a plush (which is "female" because boys would never touch a plushy, of course).
Instead, they found that their hypothesis turned out to be correct, after disregarding anything that invalidated their hypothesis.
Where did I get this study from? From social media, of course. Where a bunch of meat heads "proved" that all women genetically want to be tradwives and trans people don't exist or some shit.
Fuck everything about this.
Man. Last time I just wanted to check if my new laptop was working properly, so I booted up it's preinstalled Windows. I literally had to look up how to get Windows to get me into Explorer without creating an account or connecting it to my network.
It took me about 25 minutes and Windows was already installed on the damn thing.
It took 15 minutes from booting a prepared Fedora stick to logging in.
I honestly believe that, by now, Linux is no more difficult than Windows. People are just not used to the differences.
Die Pointe ist rassistische Stereotypen. Scheint einige Menschen mental und humoristisch komplett auszufüllen.
Im Orginal war der "Witz" noch ein anderer, mit andren Stereotypen; kann mich aber gerade schlichtweg nicht mehr dran erinnern, was exakt es war. (Vermutlich besser so xD) Ist auch nebensächlich, inhaltlich war's dasselbe und exakt so "lustig".
Dafür ist die Reaktion, wenn ich mich richtig entsinne, sogar der exakte Wortlaut gewesen.
"[…] und dann flüchtete der Schwarze mit der Melone."
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…mit der Melone."
"…"
"…der Schwa-"
"Hab' ich schon verstanden. Aber wo ist die Pointe?"
"Ach, mit dir kann man solche Witze nicht machen."
( Leider basiert auf einer wahren Begebenheit ._. )
Tbf, furries are ⅔ LGBT.
There's research on that. Thanks, Canadian goverment.
Edit: ITT: Someone spends 10 fucking hours responding to every single reply thats even remotely empathetic towards furries, while being a wedge-issue little shit. This is so sad.
Furry or not; we are stronger together.
Nono, it's:
"I need to format stings with values from a dictonary. What should I do?"
"Use Django. It has a templating engine."
This is based on a actual exchange I saw on XDA
It does.
Look up sourdough recipes. The bacteria and yeasts will eagerly eat some longer-chain carbs. They aren't picky. Same goes for commercial supermarket yeasts.
Maybe I'm too European for this, but I would never have thought of putting sugar in regular bread. Even milk buns don't have added sugar in them, unless you count lactose.
…I'll have to try this, because it sounds off to me. Like putting a dishwasher in the bathroom. Not really insane. But I'd quietly judge someone who does that.
Edit: Not great for bread.
"Unfortunately, the Cybertruck is BEING made political."
"I sleep and drive soundly knowing my Cybertruck existing in the world is itself a giant self driving stainless steel middle finger to all the snowflakes and communists out there."
"Super straight" in profile (very unstable).
SUVs, anyone?
No?
We also have crossover SUVs.
Maybe a SUV mixed with a coupé?
Still no?
How about a Combi mixed with a SUV?
Our cheapest option?
That'll be 30.000€.
Electric? No. That one isn't electric.
For that you'll have to upgrade to our eSUV.
Why… why are you leaving?
Can someone explain to me why Skoda has such a bad reputation? I really noticed this when I had my Skoda Citigo, which is basically the same car as the VW Up! or the Seat Mii.
But somehow people singled out the Skoda as the worst.
What is the point of paying for the pipe if you don't use everything you can?! There is no reason they shouldn't push it through faster.
This is the reason why I leave the shower running in every hotel I visit. And at the buffet, I tell the waiter to fetch me a trash can so I can actually get rid of the whole thing. If I can, I usually leave both a heater and an air conditioner running in the hallway.
Edit: Wow. I had completely forgotten about this comment. I really didn't think anyone would take it seriously. I work with networks. I know we're not literally going to run out of internet. But everyone treats bandwidth as this freely available resource. Advertisers, consumers, creatives and Jürgen. Fuck you, Jürgen. We both know that downloading 6 fucking MB every time someone wants to queue up the database is fucking insane, as is your reliance on client-side bullshit.
Anyway, whenever a anything loads slowly, think about why. Bandwith is not free. It's a maintained resource.
"Du kannst dir meine Klabusterbeeren vom Arsch pflücken und behalten!"
Tja. Wird wohl heute doch noch die übrig gebliebende Flasche Cocoroco geext, um das wieder zu vergessen.
Also als jemand, der inzwischen 3 Mal auf'm beleuchteten Fußgängerüberweg umgekachelt worden ist: Mich sieht man scheinbar auch nicht.
Und wenn ich an den Natenom-Beitrag denke, dann sieht man auch Radfahrer in Warnveste mit eingeschaltetem Licht bei guten Bedingungen nicht.
Die Mutter von 'nem Kumpel sieht beim Einparken nicht mal durchgängige, 1,8m hohe Wände.
Wenn's danach geht, dann müsste die Welt eine komplett glatte, asphaltierte Kugel sein.

DSW:
Eine helle Nutzerschnittstelle in einem hellen Zimmer schont die Augen. Anders rum, anders rum.
Pluspunkte gibt's für einen Bildschirm, mit vernünftigem Weißpunkt und einem automatischen Nachtmodus zum Abend.
EDIT: hsdkfr734r@feddit.nl hat eine enorm wichtige Frage gestellt und ich schäme mich etwas, einfach so Halbwissen weitergegeben zu haben. Diese Weißheit hatte ich vor bestimmt 'ner Dekade (+/- 'n Jahr oder so) gelesen. Ich weiß aber aktuell nicht mehr wo und kann diesen "Fakt" schlicht nicht mehr mit vernünftigen Quellen belegen.
Hinzu kommt, dass damals™ mein mentaler Medienfilter deutlich schlechter war. Joar. Ggf. erzähl ich Schwachfu. Recherchiert das lieber nochmal.
Why is everyone in this thread Richard Byrd?
Most people I know wear t-shirts at home in winter and heat up the house to compensate, wasting energy. This meme is clearly aimed at them.
If you live in arctic conditions, then you probably already wear more than a shirt, even at home. If not, then feel adressed as well.
And to the many people who are currently raising their babies at home: Scandinavian practices be damned. I understand that it's not too practical to regularly wrap up your baby so that they can withstand freezing conditions. Fine. Turn up the damn thermostat. You already have a screaming infant at your hands.
Everyone else: stfu.
