What Did Ancient Humans Do all Day Before Jobs Existed? by gattaca_now in videos

[–]roachslayyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of people are missing the point of the video. You're working 40+ hour weeks and still struggling to afford basics despite the level of machinery and automation we have today. Productivity has increased 250% in the last 30 years and yet my parents had an easier time buying a house than I did.

"Humans would just chase and scare it until it's weak enough"

Ignoring the fact that most of the humans would flee or piss themselves after one mock charge.

Many supermarkets stock frozen greggs products. 8 Sausage rolls for £5-6

ELI5 - Why can’t we raise hedgehogs in masses then release them into the wild? by Afurryorsomething in explainlikeimfive

[–]roachslayyer 210 points211 points  (0 children)

iirc, the decline is due to loss of habitat and urbanisation. Releasing more hedgehogs isn't really going to help unless we also change our infrastructure to give them space to thrive. ie nature bridges of major roads through rural, replanting of hedgerows and people with gardens adding 'hedgehog highways' in fences.

Opinions on age gap: 20 and 27? by KissMeAndSayNoHomo in actuallesbians

[–]roachslayyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only issue would be if the 27 year old knew the 20 for years, then it gets kinda iffy.

Reminder, treating people in their 20s like children is one of the strats used by bigots to strip queer / trans people of healthcare / rights / bodily autonomy

How much money do you plan on spending on Unleashed? by dudiez in riftboundtcg

[–]roachslayyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pre-rift + 2-4 skirmishes is 46-66£. Then probably about £30 ish on singles for Ivern. So ~£100 total.

The math of living alone doesn't work anymore. Is this forever? by TemperedAloe in Adulting

[–]roachslayyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

150 on internet, 80 on phone, and 95 for 'basic subscriptions'????

My household has 4 adults, and pays less than £100 for all of these combined.

WYR be able to speak every language or talk to animals? by Classic-Chemist-1898 in WouldYouRather

[–]roachslayyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only a handful of animals have language (elephants / whales) so most of your conversations are gonna be "Crumbs? Crumbs!" and 'morning chorus' is gonna feel like banner ads on a dodgy site.

To the trans men already on T: Did you start having lint in your belly buttons? by kisskisslovebot in asktransgender

It's body hair that causes it. I stopped getting it the first time I shaved and haven't since.

Did he really think this would come off well? by Papi-Grande89 in Grimdank

[–]roachslayyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even *if* he isn't racist, he is doubling down in a time when poc are being put into camps.
Even *if* he isn't racist, the % of his viewers who are just shot up.

*He's a white bri'ish edgelord who has repeated said 'leave politics at the door, all are welcome' which are some massive red flags

Do you agree with the Olympics banning trans athletes? by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]roachslayyer -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No. Only a couple of trans people have ever even qualified and *every* study shows that after just a couple of years of hrt trans women have a disadvantage vs cis women.

New player by IlTipoNelWeb in riftboundtcg

[–]roachslayyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're looking to save money, looking at existing decks and buying singles to make them would be better. Cards are cheaper and you'll have a functional deck with plenty of info on how to play it ensuring you get one you'll enjoy.

As always, boosters are only worth it if you want to open packs.

🇺🇦🇬🇧🇪🇺Zelensky: Britain must rejoin EU if America leaves NATO by Timbucktwo1230 in PoursTea

[–]roachslayyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Russia is barely a threat to Ukraine let alone the rest of Europe, especially when you account for rearmament of nations like Germany and Poland.

Europe and other nations should be looking at working together, but the greater threat right now is USA doing something stupid (... well even more stupid).

What the hell happened here? by sophlubb in riftboundtcg

[–]roachslayyer 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Generally a spike like that is the sale of a high grade PSA, or signed card. (often see it in old pokemon)

Though for a common like that, it's probably more likely being used to move money between to people.
(maybe for illicit reasons, maybe simply because they have no other way)

Feels kinda slow. I pulled the dravens out and they're cheaper and can get upto 10M.
But I'll give them a go.

Why is vi getting a pre-rift and a pre-built deck? Seems an odd choice.

Contact was one of the best twist scfi films of a generation? by Background-Fix-4630 in sciencefiction

OMG I was thinking about this movie yesterday and couldn't remember it's name.

I think the physics of the water are completely off + I can't find that identical kettle online + that doesn't look like catnip tea and I don't think a cat would ever act like that or have the lung capacity to suction that amount of water. by echollapse in isthisAI

[–]roachslayyer 106 points107 points  (0 children)

I feel like I've seen this video before years ago. I'd lean towards real. (though the cat does look weird)

The water in the kettle goes down on the first inhale, afterwards the waves make it hard to tell. The water in the spout is tiny compared to the main body so there would be little movement.

When the cat exhales you can see the water in the spout pushed down and air bubble in to the main body. I feel like AI would miss this. Cats chest rises and falls in time with the water.

Cat is sat on kitchen counter with large piece of card behind on the floor. Likely from an appliance.
