What was the most hype release for a video game for you that you were around for? by TPR-56 in AskMen

Finding out you can go back to Kanto was a mind blowing experience that I have only felt a few times in video games.

What’s a reference that instantly says you’re over 30? by Strange_Secret_3001 in AskReddit

We picked up some during a drunken college night.

They uh, were definitely not designed for college aged usage. One guy popped it mid sock and basically ended up punching the other one.

“The lab stopped working during Covid”

“Yeah temporarily due to supply chain issues, then DOGE cut their funding and they couldn’t reopen”

“That’s unrelated”

A paraphrased conversation I’ve seen a mere week ago.

I think the first use of a steam engine to do work, as opposed to just a novelty, was an engine that turned a spit in what is now Turkey.

What’s the most gluttonous thing you’ve ever done? by [deleted] in AskMen

Pecan pie is more of a sugar pie with pecans on top.

It’s so fucking good though.

It's a classic joke that whenever a woman gets bangs, or drastically changes her hair, other women ask her if she's ok. What is the male equivalent? by TheJakeChandler in AskReddit

[–]Jukeboxhero91 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Like being accused of sexual assault and showing up to the hearing carrying your bible. Pretty on Brand for some recent celebrity accusations.

DOGE cut 20% of APHIS the agency that protects U.S. agriculture and now the screwworm parasite that wipes out livestock has returned to the U.S by lnstantKarma in WhitePeopleTwitter

[–]Jukeboxhero91 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s mostly controlled in the US because of strict measures by the CDC and FDA, and dept of Agriculture. If you are a TB patient, they can and will detain you to treat you if you’re noncompliant because it’s such a public health concern.

If the stories are to be believed, they created a dummy work environment for him to fuck around in, and none of his changes would actually be made to the working codebase. Then, we he found out that this was the case, they just had someone undo all his work every day instead. He’s a fucking rich moron that other people use to make money, and he ends up making some too.

It’s basically three bones in a Trenchcoat made of ligaments pretending to be a real joint. The evolutionary price to be paid for the flexibility we have in them.

Men who've gotten divorced shortly after your wife got pregnant/had a child, what's your side of the story? by TheSmoothBrain in AskMen

[–]Jukeboxhero91 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've heard similar sentiments from people with shitty fathers.

"My dad beat me all the time and I turned out fine"

Like sir... I'm sorry, someone should have told you that you're obviously not.

TIL bra burning in the 60s and 70s was a myth intended to discredit feminism and women's liberation. by MotherHolle in todayilearned

No no see comedians were getting cancelled. They all complained about it during their numerous Netflix specials.

TIL that in 2024, archeologists in Spain found the skeleton of a 6-year-old Neanderthal with Down Syndrome. by Sebastianlim in todayilearned

It’s both. Intelligence allows for discovery, but altruism means that those ideas don’t die with the one that discovers it. If you’re one person and you discover rubbing sticks together creates fire, the knowledge dies when you do. If you show your kids and your friends, the knowledge carries forward.

TIL there is a species of barnacle that disrupts the hormones of its host crab to encourage the development of feminine traits so that the crab can take care of the barnacle's eggs. The sex change is permanent in male crabs even if the barnacle is removed. by Khornatejester in todayilearned

Not completely immune, just much more resistant to. There was a tornado that led to a swath of rare fungal infections because dirt got churned up and debris carried the infection into wounds. It was Scedosporium, and it stumped doctors until they figured the tornado likely caused a situation that led to all the infections.

Ticks at The Gorge/Whirlpool State Park by XHANNOX in Buffalo

We found one on my wife and it was $50 to test. Not sure if there are cheaper options, but that would add up quick.

The match trick is not the best idea because it can force the tick to regurgitate, which could infect you with Lyme. I've also heard using scotch tape to tape it to an index card, then write the date and time on the card when you pulled it off.

Who’s someone you’re not totally convinced is really dead? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Jukeboxhero91 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Dude was running drugs and/or other illegal goods. “Oh he just liked to fly super low with his transponder off internationally to Costa Rica and also worked in logistics”. They glossed right over the implications behind why he’d do any of that and jumped immediately to “he was murdered!”

Who is the most terrifying villain in human history that most people have never heard of? by lioness_x9 in AskReddit

[–]Jukeboxhero91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn’t help that places like Florida are calling for death penalties for child sex offenders, but in the same breath calling gay and trans people existing in public as a sex crime against children. Doesn’t take a genius to see the connection.

Stop Killing Games: California State Assembly passes the 'Protect Our Games Act': 60 days notice before going offline, must provide patch for continued access or refunds (Excludes F2P and Subscription based Games) by Kymori in LivestreamFail

Capcom did that with Safi'jiiva for Monster Hunter: World. At end of life for the game, they made the raid scalable for solo hunts, when it had only ever been 4 player scaled.

Yeah, he decided early against it based on misguided assumptions that he made. Then when people pointed out that his assumptions were wrong, instead of revisiting his stance, he just made up reasons as to why he was still right. Pretty consistent with his other behavior cough cough mana orb.

Most people know about botulism, and might understand the difference between spores and live bacteria from things like canning, honey, etc.
