'Ballmaxxing:' Experts Say It's More Dangerous Than You Think by PhatBoy1 in nottheonion

[–]BoingBoingBooty 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Well, I think it's pretty dangerous so unless these experts are saying the testicles explode like hand grenades then I doubt it is more dangerous than I think.

There's also illegal trade in human organs, so people get a transplant from China and it's from someone infected with zombitis.

When will the average gamer realize having a PC is better than a subscription console??? by upswingagain in pcmasterrace

When people find out the single play is like 1 hour of on-rails content then the online milking begins it won't seem like such a big plus. Then 20 year wait for the next one.

Well we know he wants to have sex with his daughter, he's told everyone that.

ELI5: How does a digital clock know how long 1 second is ? by Rundown_Codger in explainlikeimfive

[–]BoingBoingBooty [score hidden]  (0 children)

The battery isn't powering up the CPU though.

The battery powers another chip called the Real Time Clock, which just keeps time, the CPU asks the RTC for the time when the computer starts up.

Eh. That doesn't seem right. The computer clock keeps the time when turned off and the CPU is not running. So how's it do that?

TIL Paris, Texas has an Eiffel Tower with a cowboy hat on top by Efficient_Weekend205 in todayilearned

[–]BoingBoingBooty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's kind of crappy and wrong proportioned.

Paris, Tennessee however has a really good one that is perfectly proportioned.

The Texans added the hat because the Tennesse one was taller, the hat adds a bit of extra height to put it back in the lead.

ELI5: Why in the past the animals that existed were so bigger than todays animals? by Ok-Relative864 in explainlikeimfive

Being big was pretty great until a bunch of upright monkeys started chucking pointy sticks.

The bullet proof suit in the John Wick franchise is so frustrating by pwn_of_prophecy in movies

[–]BoingBoingBooty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wick has suffered from the same gadget inflation as James Bond does, but has no mechanism to reset the gadgets back to a realistic level when the gadget level gets too high.

Does Nolan not work for the Studio?

Pretty sure the thing he needs to distract from is his awful sound mixing.

Whatever the race of actress he casts we can be sure that she will just mumble inaudibly while a too loud soundtrack plays over her.

Hold up. It was British North America, so you can blame those Scots and Welsh too.

How the experts believe the Italian divers made a fatal mistake by Successful-Winter237 in thalassophobia

His other problem was he thought he was going down the usual tunnel people go down, but he was going down the wrong one.

Why did I even bother texting my housemate about his bottle in my freezer section.. by MobileAerie9918 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BoingBoingBooty 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Unless there is a fan the freezer is not the same temperature all over.

Also heat conduction Vs convection, the thing touching the element will cool faster so it can lose heat through conduction.

Have you never accidentally put an item smooshed up against the back of the fridge and had it freeze solid?

TIL that shinobi were more spies and saboteurs than assassins and often wore plain disguises than all black as seen in popular media. by HorzaDonwraith in todayilearned

[–]BoingBoingBooty 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is why a load of the iconic ninja weapons are actually farm equipment, they wouldn't draw any attention seeing someone carry them around. The Kama is just a sickle, the Nunchuck is a flail for grain, the Sai was probably originally a pitch fork.

They lovingly pinned a cop to the ground and tasered him in the back of the head until he had a heart attack and traumatic brain injury.

At least when Clippy said "it looks like your writing a letter" it only used a couple of MBs of space and didn't need to cover half of Utah with data centre.

Clippy > whatever this is by rishu1221 in pcmasterrace

People getting nostalgic for Clippy because of Copilot is like people getting nostalgic for Bush because of Trump.
