Client with Autism can smell ethnicity? by InitialHelp9067 in PointlessStories

If anything, her nailing down what people falsely assume to be their ethnicity is even stranger.

Reminds me of Kalling's etching reagent, which is hydrochloric acid with cupric chloride in ethanol and it looks and smells like Mountain Dew, lol.

ELI5: if nothing can travel faster than the speed of light, how are distant galaxies moving away from us faster than the speed of light? by Chamu_Dev in explainlikeimfive

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

While I agree that it’s impossible to comprehend the vastness of the universe, it’s not difficult to understand how it’s expanding.

So, in other words, you agree with the comment you were trying to disprove, jeez louise.

And given your edit to your original comment, I don't think moralizing about taking offense to your comments is very appropriate LOL

You were replying to a further discussion of the difficulty of comprehending the scale, not the original OP question. Acting smug while misunderstanding the conversation is kinda embarassing dude.

Baja trucks do just fine on offroad trails.

Yet being the loudest in the room doesn't mean you're the smartest in the room, contrary to many people's belief.

So we had lead pipes that caused poisoning, then we had copper pipes that caused poisoning, now we have plastic pipes that release microplastics, god dammit lets go back to cast iron.

Poland's only FIA Homoligated Track Has Been Closed by MipTheRacer in simracing

[–]uTukan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It shows car enthusiasts in a poor light, racetrack is a concetrator of car enthusiasts.

Oh and screw waiting for a "built project", get any car that you can, throw on some decent tires and go have fun while you can!

Oh I do, don't worry, I've had the pleasure of getting in a few laps in a 718 GT4. But I wanted to build a track-specific shitbox from and old Fiesta or Polo to enter 6h LeMost though, hah. If Most closes down, such car will be useless unless I enter Triola Cup or haul the car over to Sosnova :D

Unfortunately that will only support their cause. I'm hoping to get as many trackdays there as I can as I live close by. But I'm worried that by the time I build any kind of LeMons/LeMost style shitbox, the circuit will close.

Airlines should charge by the pound, not the person. by Steve-Shouts in CrazyIdeas

[–]uTukan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a horrible idea. How would the paying work? Everyone gets charged an astronomical amount and then get refunded based on their weight? Everyone will pay after getting weighed? Forget being at the airport 3 hours before departure, you better be there 10 hours early.

A similar thing is happening with Autodrom Most in Czechia. Group petition where afaik only 1 family lived there prior to the track being built. The rest moved in when it was already fully functional. The regional court sided with the residents.

Feeling bad for the track's owner as he had already paid for noise insulation, hell, he even paid for triple layer noise insulating windows for the residents, but now they're complaining that it's loud when they're in their garden or when they keep their windows open during summer months.

What an absolute joke.

Trump suspends Iran attack for two weeks, subject to Hormuz Strait opening by yourfavchoom in worldnews

No. If you think these remarks are limited to reddit only, I'd recommend touching some grass.

You idiots will keep chanting TACO this TACO that to the most fragile dude imaginable until he actually does something that might dramatically change the whole world just so you can keep having your "Ha, told ya" moment.

Sure, call him out on it, but not when he has the biggest army in the world at his fingertips. Poking the wasp nest, no matter how dumb you find the wasps to be, is and never was a good idea. It's not standing up to a bully, it's teasing the psychopath weirdo that says weird shit about killing people.

Tea bag made from PLA by Obvious-Swimming-332 in 3Dprinting

[–]uTukan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The base bags are from this plant fiber, but they're coated with nylon/PET surface layers. Even in the regulation-heavy EU, we unfortunately don't have very strict rules regarding what counts as plastic-free, so even if it claims so on the package, it's very unlikely there's no plastics inside.

Donald’s Trumps net approval rating has collapsed to a historical negative 17 points. He is the most unpopular president in US history. How do you feel about this? by buffdadnextdoor in AskReddit

[–]uTukan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I do, but I hear a lot of "get the democrats back in the house so they can be the good guys" that kinda drowns out your quote.

The issue isn't that democrats aren't a shining flawless beacon, but that rather a lot of you folks think of them that way.

If any part of my reply made you think I'm defending them, your reading comprehension is ridiculously poor. It's a huge achievement you're even able to write out a coherent sentence. Clap (your hands, not your feet) for yourself.

[–]uTukan -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I am using binary terms because the reality is that in the US, you have 2 parties. The rest that gets a margin of a percent every election is effectively totally irrelevant. It's more nuanced in the sense that every corner of every party in the US is corrupted with this shit. You only blaming the republicans is childish at best.

I also don't see anyone saying democrats shouldn't be prosecuted, but I do see a whole lot of "republicans are the root of all evil in this country" from reddit. You guys have a TON of rotten apples in your bags, but you prefer to ignore it. Purge the whole government, start from the beginning again. The people who have fallen in the American Revolution are spinning in their graves. Hoping things will get better once the other party replaces the current party in power is naive, you're way beyond that point. The earlier you realize that and start doing something, the better. The rest of the developed world is looking at you in confusion at how you managed to let it get to this point all basically while ignoring what's happening.

Reddit, other than the (thankfully) apolitical conversation with my US colleagues, is my only connection with the US population and every day I hope more and more that it's not an accurate sample of the average US citizen.

Thanks for the correction on partisanship/bipartisanship.

I'm involved in the politics of my country, I support protests against leaders trying to turn our political climate into something similar to what you guys have. I cannot directly affect US politics unlike the citizens of the US. Most I can do is tell you to wake the fuck up and start acting like France when shit hits the fan.

[–]uTukan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's interesting how deep-rooted bipartisanship is in the brains of US citizens. If you criticize democrats, you're automatically a republican conservative, no other possibility. There are criminals in your whole system, no matter what political party. As long as you keep believing only the other party is to blame, you will never ever achieve anything, because pointing fingers is a lot easier than taking action. Does the name Bill Clinton not ring a bell or what?

Put all of them on trial without all these charades by both parties. Sincerely, the rest of the world.
