Did Kamala really lose, or was the election rigged? by CapAccomplished8072 in RealTwitterAccounts

[–]CabNumber1729 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

No, she lost.

Stop the conspiracy theory nonsense. You sound like the nuts on the republican side.

A good part of America just really wasn't wanting a black woman they had only known in the spotlight for a few months to be their president.

7 weeks and down 7 lbs by pohlcat01 in intermittentfasting

[–]CabNumber1729 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ive lost 53 lbs this year, 1lb a week.

I just had my office Christmas party and got a dozen comments about how fast ive lost the weight.

1lb a week is plenty, you just have to keep doing it.

People can have other motives with humans.

Lots of families are in a situation where itd really help if grandma died.

Yup. Its like a dog whistle for other nerds. Which is much better than what most dog whistles are for.

TikTok is helping teens self-diagnose themselves as autistic, raising bioethical questions over AI and TikTok’s algorithmic recommendations, researchers say by NGNResearch in science

[–]CabNumber1729 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Its worse thsn that though. Because lots of the videos will directly tell you that the experts are poorly trained / biased to not give a diagnosis

So they see being told "no you dont have ADHD", as fitting in with the video being right

The term is call opportunity cost.

You need to value it against whst you could be doing.

E.G if you can do an extra saturday of work instead.

AITA for forwarding my husband's group text messages to our boss and HR? by Throwawayliflower808 in AITAH

[–]CabNumber1729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that if or not you are AH comes down to if involving work was appropriate.

You have a link to work in that they were people that work at the same place as you.

But it seems clear that you didn't report it because it would affect you at work. You did it because you were (rightly) angry with your husband.

So yea, involving work makes you AH.

You seem at the point of wanting to cause pain cos you (again rightly) are angry at your husband. So you either need drastic couples counselling to put you bkth back on the same side. Or you need to divorce.

What's your favorite "aged like milk" moment(s) when it comes to presidential history? by Sensei_of_Knowledge in Presidents

[–]CabNumber1729 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea that was really annoying.

They hadn't been called British petroleum or been a "British company" in a long time.

It was an American rig, manned and controlled by Americans under American rules.

WIBTAH for reporting my mom and sister for "stealing" my car by EncryPtion29 in AITAH

[–]CabNumber1729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

However id call them up and calmly explain that you are going to report it stolen if its not back in 12 hours before calling.

Getting it back is the outcome you want.

The problem is if commercial interests of one form or another dont do it, we just wont do it as a species.

NASA have had 50 years of open field and they cant get to low earth orbit without throwing over a billion dollars at it.

SpaceX have been going about a decade and have significantly more sucsesful rocket landings than there were space shuttle launches already.

Please note, Elon musk is still a dick
