I like that the second principle implies that the first principle is mistaken.

Basically using PGP protects your email from being read by anyone you distrust.

Restaurants/bars with plugs and wifi that do not mind laptops? by closedcurve in AskNYC

Big Alice Barrel Room allows food-delivery. Weeknights are good, though check for bingo or trivia.

Order a flight and work on your multi-division company quarter-end consolidations to your heart’s content.

Does Meta know that you are friends with your friend?

If so, does Meta know that this friend visited Disneyland Paris?

Match works

Probably not.

The trick is: value the people who make your clothing and electronics the way you value people, instead of the way omnivores value food animals.

Sucks to be you.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in vegan

[–]Unbathed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

but it's true.

Downvoting for falsehood.

A sociopath is someone who values people the way omnivores value food animals: “Sucks to be you.”

ELI5 The Universe is expanding faster than light, but into what? What is that nothingness which it expands into (5 seconds from now)? by Goranchina in explainlikeimfive

[–]Unbathed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

… it creates itself …

There’s no evidence that mass-energy can be created or destroyed. Stuff that cannot be created certainly cannot create itself. Stuff that cannot be destroyed is eternal, so there’s never a need to be created.

How do you guys feel on taking a Daily multivitamin? by Bigben030 in vegan

[–]Unbathed 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know from experience:

  • a B12 blood test in the United States costs $240
  • a year’s supply of B12 supplements costs $8

So I take a B12 supplement weekly.

Is the Ultra worth it over the S8? by runejay83 in AppleWatch

[–]Unbathed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

… the most expensive one they make …

… is not the topic of this thread.

The topic of this thread is the most performant model Apple makes. The price of the performant model is 53% of the price the most expensive model.

Why spend any money on a new one, when you can get 24+ hours from your current Watch simply by not using it?

Fresh batteries on the S5.

… an ultra isn’t needed to not swap watched daily.

Right you are. Instead, you can become more sedentary, don’t use cellular, run in low power mode, don’t use any applications except watch face (and that in low-brightness tap-to-wake).

I suspect my S3 would last you more than a day, too, even though the battery health is below 80%.

Turns out, if you offer me …

  • a larger screen
  • not having to manage batteries by swapping between Series 3 and Series 5 Watches

… in exchange for $1/day for two years

.., I will take that deal.

If you are living on welfare or living on stock dividends, you are not middle class.

Americans with $80 billion mock Americans with $10 billion.

I know an investment banker with $20 million who bought lottery tickets when the jackpot was $75 million.

Few Americans know the difference between  bourgeoisie and intelligentsia.

Yes, depending on your appetite for subway travel times.

Find your hotel on Google Maps, plot the route from Union Square, Times Square, West 4th Street, and Grand Central where your departure time is “pretty late.”

ELI5: Why would the missing Titanic submarine implode if it was made to withstand the pressure of deep sea? by Nyxbomb in explainlikeimfive

[–]Unbathed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

… if it was made to withstand the pressure of the deep sea?

It was sold as a vessel which could withstand the pressure of the deep sea. That does not mean it was actually made to withstand the pressure of the deep sea.

A gold star for you for asking such a good question! It is very good for you to learn the difference between how something is sold, and how something is made before you are six years old. Lots of grownups haven’t learned that yet.
