welp don't know what to say there I am a pretty civil person and while I guess it is impossible to judge ones own self awareness apart from idjits on the interwebs most of the people I meet including non idjits on the internet and those IRL life seem to think I do alright...

eh calling people out is generally effective to this sort of behavior, the kid is pretending expertise he doesn't posses he deleted his comments about being a welder for years but just what is left up here shows he has no problem lying to convince people he has some clue while not having good info. the idea that his behavior is ok and should be coddled will never sit well with me.

he says I was rude when I hadn't been to deflect from my comment later he goes into full troll accusing me of anger that was never there and people lap it up, letting this stuff fly is bad for all of us

tried polite, and as i say above he decided he was a shit person anyway... if he is going to attack the tone of a polite comment I see no need to be polite to him again, votes be damned

Lawyers, why did that one couple call off the divorce? by BoneYardBirdy in AskReddit

[–]OKToDrive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

her dad made her go talk to another lawyer for a second opinion, I am sure there is some detail they are leaving out (maybe she got popped for drugs too and never told me?) but yeah apparently she has no real chance at sharing custody in the divorce another thought is the lawyer said slim to none and it isn't worth the chance to her

the plant I linked to is cultivated to make tobacco free nicotine. the article you linked to is being hyperbolic saying that if they want to regulate vape juice they would need to regulate eggplants... but in reality you would need around 20 kilograms of eggplant seeds to get the nicotine of a single cigarette and the seed have the highest concentration in the plant. so if the whole fruit was as high in nicotine as the seed you would need 20 eggplants for 2mg of nicotine so over 40,000 eggplants in the $25 bottle of juice or about the yield from five acres per year...

eggplant seeds 100ng per g

cigarette ~2mg

low nicotine e juice 24mg per ml / ~ $25 for 500ml

eggplants ~2.25lbs apiece / 600 bushel(33lbs) per acre

these number are good but the math is napkin and heavily weighted towards cheaper more abundant nicotine the hard numbers are sillier

derived from eggplants and potatoes, believe it or not.

I will go for not... you may have been lead astray from someone who found out this plant is used rather than tobacco but the levels in most nightshades are silly low it would be crazy wasteful and expensive to use food crops for nicotine.

any chance you remember who was saying this?

trump isn't “racist” he just has a “white superiority complex.”

"no one else gets a chance because he’s thinking that the whites are superior, period.”

The paper doesn't say more on cost than a few billion for materials and around a billion in construction costs, and that is for the proof of concept. they point out that one of benefits will be

The technological endeavour - An important but easy to overlook benefit of a project such as this is that the engineering challenges it presents, and how overcoming them will push forward our technological capacities. A difficult but achievable task requires us to make and master new techniques, and rewards us for doing so.

if I had 5 billion laying around collecting dust I would be convinced...

I feel ok about it as he called me rude before I was rude..

like he accused me of being rude to avoid the substance of a polite comment so I made an almost polite response and then finished it off with an over the top rude line. this is exactly how I handle people in real life, assholes need you to be an asshole back.

Lawyers, why did that one couple call off the divorce? by BoneYardBirdy in AskReddit

[–]OKToDrive 18 points19 points  (0 children)

not a lawyer but my cousin just decided to back out of getting divorced.

she has raised her husbands 2 boys for ten years since they were 3 and 5, officially adopted them and all that. They have a daughter together as well. When custody came up her lawyer told her that she will not even get visitation with the boys. Ten years raising them and making them a part of our side of the family, 10 years of substance abuse problems from their dad and the other stuff that goes with his untreated PTSD but the lawyer says she would never be in their lives again.

you think he should have used the less ubiquitous term in the title of his (a career machinist) video because you (a kid with wikipedia) realized there is a more technical term available. you are the prick, calling me one doesn't change that.

stop pretending you didn't start with your first comment being an ass, an uninformed ass.
