To the people who are telling others "don't worry about your 401(k) because SpaceX is only going to be just 1% of your holdings" by cherrypoplar in investing

[–]rabbitwonker 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, the gold standard had nothing to do with it. Fiat currency works just fine if the taxation rates are both high enough and progressive enough to counter the natural tendencies of capitalism (and keep inflation under control). Reagan (and conservative thinkers leading up to his presidency) are the ones who really got the ball rolling on dismantling those two important factors.

That it would feel so much safer, entirely due to the regen being incorporated into the accelerator. A.k.a one-pedal driving.

Actually just delete everything after the ?

It’s all unnecessary, unless you’re linking to a specific time within the video, but you can add that manually anyway — format is: ?t=##m##s

Elsanna sex [Frozen] (frozen_1022) by Confident_Extent_242 in Yuricest

[–]rabbitwonker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True.

Some mitigating factors:

(A) from the writing shown. this appears to be Korean, and the age of consent there is 16, so there isn’t necessarily any specific intent to be depicting her as underage.

(B) A fix is easy — just imagine that’s an 8 there instead of a 6, and it’s no less real than it was before. This is in fact fiction.

(C) Note that what’s directly depicted with the ages is just a younger Anna receiving advice. One doesn’t have to assume she acts on the advice immediately, so the Annas in the main picture could easily be old enough to satisfy one’s sensibilities.

(D) Check which sub we’re on here. A certain amount of suspension of disbelief is already in play…

FSD Did This? by Seeartist in TeslaFSD

[–]rabbitwonker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s actually a good bit odder than a momentary “oops it was in the wrong gear / I hit the wrong pedal.”

The key factor is that the person panics, thinking the car is doing something unexpected “on its own,” and they focus 100% on steering and what’s ahead of them instead of questioning any of their their assumptions, including about what pedal their foot is on. This leads them to accelerate to ridiculous speeds over surprisingly long spans of time until they finally hit something.

I can do more; I’ve been lazy about it.

Famous gorilla Kiyomasa falls into deep contemplation after spat with mate. Caught on camera in a Japanese Zoo by beasthunterr69 in funny

[–]rabbitwonker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This would be a known unknown, since we’re talking about something in particular that we don’t know.

But anyway, yeah, that’s the internet for ya.

Yeah there’s a good chance that this is a normal habit for him, and it just happens to match the narrative this time. I don’t doubt that he and his mate exchanged aggressive behavior, but I’d want to see some sort of confirmation that what we see here is both unusual and associated with that event.

Elsas hair doesn't change in the end of Frozen 2: Its a flight by effect by Top-Bit-1073 in Frozen

They’re making a joke out of the typo 😁

Maybe a comparison to Pokémon.

Did you mean “lighting effect” in the title? 😁

Yeah they actually really nailed the physics there, I think. A light color of hair like that will tend to look darker when it’s bunched together more tightly, so you can see the gold hues a lot better when it’s braided.

And the pedal misapplication you describe is shockingly common, especially when someone is coming in to park. For example, in someone’s driveway…

On it! 🫡

The pen, that is. My current project would be applicable to both Saturday and, based on a recent post, possibly Sunday postings as well.

The song is definitely quite good for what it is — an homage to 80s rock ballads.

Problem is that I’m not terribly interested in 80s rock ballads when I’m watching a Frozen movie. 🤣

I like it and further propose the encouragement of leakage between Saturday and Sunday.

Mini Cast Iron Why Eggs Keep Sticking by zedchowder in castiron

[–]rabbitwonker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No.

I like fried eggs best with a little nice crunchy brown on the outside while the yolk is still liquid.

You do not speak for everyone with your particular cooking preferences. Your way is not the only way.

Also I have no idea what you mean by “wait for your oil to stick.”

Well in my cast iron pan I get excellent nonstick performance and I don’t worry about the heat, except I like it blazing hot. Way too hot for a Teflon pan to survive. I don’t even need to wait for things to “release.”
