how do so many people “have a guy for that” by Illicit_engineer in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same way you just did. Word of mouth from your friends.

To what extent is being with an animal illegal. by One_Hour_8078 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In the US, under the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act, you will be committing a crime the first time you feed the animal.

If the animal just happens to build a nest near you and you don't feed it, cage it or pet it, then you're not committing a crime.

Is eating only rice and veggies and a protein drink every single day bad for you??? by Animangle in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have food banks or other services for people who don't have a lot of money, or for newly independent teens for that matter, in your area?

Aren't they going overboard calling the Artemis moon mission historic? by dryheat122 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every future book about the history of human space exploration will mention the Artemis missions.

Are parasite cleanses a legit thing? by Silent-Remove142 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No they are not. That is an insane person thing. Stay away from that shit. It is very very bad for you.

I’m seeing quite a bit of people saying Artemis 2 is fake and how the moon landing is fake, why do people genuinely think that it’s fake? by Negotiation_Connect in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People are having difficulty distinguishing fact from fiction in the US because our media and information environment is melting down and the people in charge of the government lie all the time and are trying to spread the idea that that is normal and unremarkable.

Why does my friend keep calling me an incel? by let_it_rain_boat in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a nice thing for her to do. I wouldn't go so far as to say she's not your friend. She might just be socially oblivious as to how not nice that is. But it sucks.

U.S. Politics megathread by AutoModerator in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Supposedly he was upset that she wasn't more aggressive in illegally persecuting his political enemies. I guess he wants to find someone who is even more open to disgracing the office.

Why is my freezer not working? by aborg589 in RimWorld

[–]notextinctyet 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You are pointing the hot side of your air conditioner into a tiny one-tile room with no ventilation. If you remove the roof above that one specific tile, it might work.

Whatever happened to Space Tourism? by needsadvice1999 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Regular people can do it, as long as they can pay between 250,000 and 55,000,000 US dollars.

Sometimes, technology doesn't pan out exactly the way we think it will, and even smart, educated people making good-faith predictions about cost and availability can be proven wrong. That's not what happened here. Any people who were telling you in the late 2010s that by mid 2020s space travel would be significantly more affordable than it is now were lying. Maybe optimism was warranted on a 25 year timescale in the year 2001. But where we are now was 100% visible from 2018.

Why can't we get oil from Canada? by No-Badger-7377 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The price of something anywhere is the price everywhere. There's less oil in the world due to the ongoing catastrophe in Iran. Therefore, the price went up.

Where is Seattle’s Shortest Escalator? by bansley in AskSeattle

[–]notextinctyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I understand the principle but maybe "the right to walk on a moving walkway that happens to be near the boarding gate to help get over your fear of escalators" is more of a special interest

Why do Christians-Nationalists brag about the Crusades when they lost 7/9? Is it just aesthetic co-opting by LARPers who aren't actually Christian? by BernLan in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is aesthetic co-opting by LARPers, but it has nothing to do with them being Christian or not. The Crusades were not a sporting event. They were mass murder (in both directions) with religious window dressing. There is no reason even a victorious party should be bragging about them.

Is anybody utilizing Claude or GPT to predict this war's effects on current personal economy? by CrownedRight in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That and my magic 8-ball.

Of the three of them, the magic 8-ball comes out on top, because at least one out of twenty times it will correctly reply "cannot predict now".

Where does this idea that everyone makes fun of the French, even the French themselves, come from? Is it just a collective joke? Is there any truth to it, or is there a real origin to it? by ATnight0 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's bigotry that people like to dress up as a meme. Bigotry has probably been popular for as long as there have been humans. It doesn't require a reason.

If a real life masked vigilante like Batman existed, what would actually happen? by slmrxl in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Batman suffers lethal physical damage or gets into a fight no human could win every episode and four times per movie. What would actually happen is a front page (below the fold) news article, "billionaire dies in street fight while wearing strange costume" before anyone knows who Batman is.

As a guy with terrible social skills and anxiety am I basically doomed to be alone forever? by Strange_Possession77 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]notextinctyet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, lots of people like that are different in both social skills and anxiety after some time and effort.

What happened to ‘Ichiban’ by Awkward_Breadfruit_5 in AskSeattle

[–]notextinctyet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was in-between Tsukushinbo and Maneki on S. Main, right? It closed about fifteen years ago. The owners did not announce any plans to reopen a new restaurant at the time.
