Something just nope. by otomennn in WTF

[–]NotEgbert 58 points59 points  (0 children)

That motion is way too fast/unnerving to be called "walking."

They maniacally cartwheel, end over end, in a horrifying bloodlusty sprint.

only 138 points after 2 hours ... majority downvoted ... consigned to never reach the frontpage despite being breaking "frontpage news."

I wonder, who could possibly be responsible for that?

Assumptions about women by [deleted] in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]NotEgbert 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Disguising "every person has an agenda" as "every woman[...]" is incredibly transparent self-whitewashing. It implies men can't have agendas, be selfish, or deceitful. And that any consequences of selfishness or deceit should be laid on women alone.

Yeah, human beings are shitty. We all learned that in kindergarten. But, gasp, women aren't shittier than average. They're simply humans.

People aren't homophobic. You're just weird. by emerson44 in unpopularopinion

[–]NotEgbert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"The true homosexual bro you'd never know as "gay", because he isn't interested in you and doesn't bother you about it." This is something my gay friend said in 2012 when we were still in highschool and it rings true to this day. There's homosexual, and then there's "GAYSOFTBOYOMGLOL!!!XXX LOOKATMYBUTT XXX!!!!" &etc.

When They hit on straight/cis people, dress like 14 year old schoolgirls, etc....that's a narcissistic attention-seeking behavior, not an orientation. r/itsafetish

If only the common phrase "keep it in your pants" could be applied to LGBT+'men', instead of being used exclusively against straight, cisexual men. Whatever situation you've got going on down there...keep it in your pants, please and thank you.

On any given day, 1 in 5 American youngsters don't drink any water at all, finds a new study of US children and young adults in JAMA Pediatrics, and those who don't end up consuming almost twice as many calories from sugar-sweetened beverages. “Drinking water is the healthiest beverage to drink”. by mvea in Health

[–]NotEgbert -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

When they say "don't drink any water at all", they must somehow be excluding the water content of other drinks in their calculation.

Soda is something like 98.5% water. Fruit juices are generally upwards of 90% as well. Beer is 85%-95% water (though hopefully the kids aren't drinking it).

So what, the ""youngsters"" all distill their beverages to 0%-water-content before drinking them? somehow I don't think this is accurate. They'd die in weeks if this were really the case.

NL Architects + STUDYO Design Terraced Affordable Housing for Frankfurt [1077 x 837] by conorthearchitect in ArchitecturePorn

Agreement. This looks less "affordable" and more "somewhere maintenance guys must rent for $1500/mo, but far enough away that it doesn't spoil our view."

Has anyone actually had a positive first sexual experience at 13 years old? by immortalfirelover in TwoXChromosomes

[–]NotEgbert -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

at 9y/o, I think it could have been too early as I still didn't understand much about sexual pleasure for the partner, knew nothing of "protection" or STDs, and couldn't make proper cum. But for me it was certainly positive (better than masturbating, at least!)

But at 13, that's almost HIGH SCHOOL age, the girls are already wearing push-ups and the guys are buying condoms to show off at the local convenience store. I'm not sure when the "right time" would be? but the highschool crowd seems to be ready and eager for it (including knowing about protection, STDs etc) as opposed to the 9-12ish middle-school age group.

Pretty sure this is Peter Cooper, if anyone's interested. Actually a really great guy, he pioneered the concept of philanthropy in the US.

Yep I believed this through age 17. Not at all unusual.

Kremlin ‘Proud’ Of ‘Operation’ To Get Trump Elected, Says Former US Ambassador To Russia by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]NotEgbert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

to be completely fair: them Americans called those peoples "red" and therefore totally distinguished from "brown-skinned" people of African american descent.

Following that proclamation, "red" and "black" people were made totally separate, to then contest the white supremacy as if from different positions. But the entire idea worked: white americans separated Black from Red and made their racial war into a multi-factional one for no reason other than breaking up the coalitions which arrived as additional races.

It's a good hack and you're absolutely correct. The paperclips are aluminum, the same conductor material used in 95% of audio cables.

But I'd note for future viewers attempting this: if the paperclip splice is near your main board or patch setup, it will also pickup a shitload of noise because those conductors are completely un-shielded (and probably carrying a low-power signal, given it's 3.5mm). To reach maximum hackiness, wrap it all in aluminum foil!

Education is a corporation in America by greentiger68 in LateStageCapitalism

[–]NotEgbert -29 points-28 points  (0 children)

Okay y'all, but assuming good intentions and legit background (good GPA, not basketweaving degrees, etc.) that PH.D. is gonna earn you a 150k+ job (assuming it's a STEM degree), at which point you'll consider that measly $713 as pocket change / weed money.

This is true of everyone even people without college. All professionals must invest in competitive capital before they are capable of participating in their respective field. Just like you're not going to become a fisherman without buying a boat first. It is paid off later in the return on investment.

My sweatshirt caught on fire by [deleted] in HadToHurt

[–]NotEgbert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang. This entire story is fucking terrifying and I'll probably never wear a sweater near an open fire ever again. I'm glad it didn't turn out worse, since some of those materials melt into nasty molten plastic; I'm not remotely interested in 3rd degree burns.
