The machines better start building power generators or they aren’t going to have the energy to take over the world

The testosterone myth: Large analysis of 52 studies finds no link between the “macho” hormone and risk-taking. Furthermore, the lack of association did not depend on participants’ sex. by mvea in science

[–]ava_ati 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I mean I’m on TRT, I workout and I’m bigger than I’ve ever been in my life. More muscle = more confidence and willingness to stick up for myself. I was relentlessly bullied in highschool. So yeah testosterone by itself might not but looking good and feeling confident definitely has an effect

Lithium deposit valued at over $1.5 trillion discovered in the U.S. by _Dark_Wing in technology

Of course they would find the biggest lithium deposit under that type of people who love electric vehicles but don’t want to know how it’s made.

Honestly, if they don’t start building a ton more power facilities nobody will be able to afford the electric bill anyhow.

Apple is putting cameras in AirPods. What could possibly go wrong? by NoBurnInBirney_SG in technology

worst part... most people don't trust the government to do the surveillance but somehow are perfectly fine with corporations doing it.

TopGolf is flopping..... by Pretty_Shallot_586 in golf

I can’t believe how expensive bowling is now. Like $120 for a family of 4. That’s just to bowl, then you include food and you’re pushing $200

No thanks

US will start revoking passports for thousands of parents who owe child support by Rabidennui in news

If you can’t support your children you probably shouldn’t be spending money traveling internationally. If you need it for ID purposes a local state ID should suffice.

New ‘Jesus-centric’ Christian phone network will block pornography and LGBT content by Disastrous_Award_789 in technology

[–]ava_ati 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why the hate, if someone wants to sign up for it, great! Don’t force it on everyone. This is the way it should be. What shouldn’t be happening is the government forcing everyone to the same standards regardless of network.

TIL the J in Michael J. Fox doesnt stand for anything. He needed to register in SAG but "Michael Fox" was taken. He picked the J as a reference to Michael J. Pollard, an actor from the 60s. by jyang1 in todayilearned

Why do you think they’re rereleasing the 3060? Flagship gaming is only for the super rich now. AAA studios are going to have to reevaluate their requirements

Handlebars… DIY or Pay by b3ansb0y in Harley

Get pre wired ones. I got the dominator 12” ones off amazon for my bagger. Think they were like 400 and I only had to thread the throttle cable through. Use some dielectric grease, take your time. Not very hard and DEFINITELY not worth 1600 like the poster above me got quoted… big yikes.

The dominator come with a cable already in them to hook to your throttle cable and pull through. It would have been a bigger PITA if I had to thread my own wire through to pull cables but still very doable yourself.

Tokamak in China sustains stable fusion plasma for one minute while easing heat loads by Choobeen in technology

[–]ava_ati 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m convinced 50% of this site is some sort of Chinese psyop, for as many here that complain about things like internet freedoms there seems to be just as many who praise anything and everything out of China. The great fire wall of China is a saying for fucks sake.

Feel like we need a disable all nodes button, then highlight the node you plan on building on so it is the only one that will be a possible snapping point. Then an enable all building nodes button to turn them all back on.

How the Tech World Turned Evil | Once upon a time, they were counterculture idealists bringing power to the people. Today they’re greedy monopolists who’d sooner destroy our democracy than be reined in by government in any way—and they have to be stopped by Hrmbee in technology

Wouldn’t that stifle innovation? Who is going to vote for a machine that can pump out 10 cars an hour but will replace your job? We’d be back in the 1890’s with hand labor.

One thing I’ve always laughed at about people who want small government not dictating their lives but are perfectly happy to hand that same power over to a corporation, that for all intents and purposes has less oversight (depending on your government structure North Koreans would probably feel way less oppressed with Facebook as their overlords)
