America has lost its f*****g mind. (feddit.de)

Hey, German here. What the f*** are Americans doing at the other side of the Atlantic? Some of you already know this monstrosity. I did’nt. This is a Ford F650 Truck and when I stepped out of my Youtube Bubble I realized, it was marketed as the “biggest, baddest Truck on the road” for the everyday American. Are you guys...

Sarmyth,

It’s a commercial vehicle that requires a special license to drive legally. It’s a good instinct to be terrified to drive it if you don’t have a CDL.

Sarmyth,

I drive an ID.4, and I always feel like I am just a little short on space. My wife has an older Ford Escape hybrid, and it’s just a little bigger, maybe a foot longer, and it holds things like Christmas trees, bed frames, etc, better with the seats down than I do. And the number of times I’ve felt like I was just a few inches too narrow to really pack the car with totes for camping, etc, is frustrating.

I’ve always had an SUV. I dont think I would function in my everyday life the way I do now with a smaller vehicle. I fill the back seat with the seats down full of packages pretty regularly. I love the car but different strokes for different folks.

Sarmyth,

But that’s not a method of killing someone, which was the only requirement of these options.

Sarmyth,

I was gonna say… things were looking pretty great today.

DeepSouth (www.westernsydney.edu.au)

A supercomputer capable of mimicking the human brain is set to be activated in 2024. The DeepSouth system, developed by researchers at the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems, uses spiking neural networks to efficiently emulate large networks of neurons, rivaling the rate of operations in the human brain. This...

Sarmyth,

I’m glad I’m not the only one who immediately thought, “AI hillbilly.”

When picking a mind to emulate, it is just practical to start simple.

Sarmyth,

I have them both running. The only thing Plex does better for me is remote access. Everything else like UI features, collections, series identication, and CPU usage has been simpler and better looking on Jellyfin.

Sarmyth,

No, it is typically the case that “men’s sports” are actually open to anyone able to compete, and women’s sports are just for women. There are very few sports where a professional female athlete can compete alongside professional male athletes.

Sarmyth,

Hmmm, I didn’t say anything transphobic, though. Just because you don’t like what I said doesn’t make me a bigot. Grow up.

Sarmyth,

Again, nothing I wrote is transphobic. You just don’t understand how sports work. The only manner in which sports are segregated is women’s sports. Any woman can play for the NBA if they are good enough. Any woman can play for MLB.

Women get their own leagues in sports because they wouldn’t be present in professional sports at all if it was all a strict meritocracy.

This article of running explains a lot of the factors. I chose running specifically because it’s a non impact sport where, presumably, the gender size differences would play less of a role.

Mens larger hearts let them oxygenate their blood faster, and their blood can hold 11% more oxygen. Recovery from injuries is quicker as well. A lot of these factors are a result of hormones present throughout their lives.

These are facts. What you make of those facts requires logic.

Now, reread what I wrote and cite back to me a single reference I made to trans people.

The post I responded to was stating that there is no reason to split sports by genders. I can tell you that without a doubt, there is a reason to provide women’s sport leagues, and that reason is to prevent their wholesale exclusion from the competitive sport environment.

Depending on when a person transitions in their life, there could be gigantic physical advantages reaped. I don’t think it’s my role as a man to declare where the line of acceptable advantages is in women’s leagues.

Sarmyth,

Why even be on a social network?

Sarmyth,

You refuse to read or provide anything to support your argument, which thus far is just that I’m a bigot… I think you are acting out your own prejudices.

The bigot here is probably you. Reflect on your behavior because if you think you are an ally to trans causes… I’ve got bad news for you…

If you just like reading your own opinions parroted back to you, I recommend just sticking to Microsoft Word.

Sarmyth,

Cruise ship captain went on 58 cruises this year!

Sarmyth,

I don’t know how, but somehow, this will find some way to not work with dark skinned people. Every time we try some detection shit, it ends up being racist.

Sarmyth,

Is Jewish Elder a title, or are these just old jews putting on airs?

Sarmyth,

I’m still trying to convince my wife that we can wait til our kid even asks to go to Disneyland before dropping that level of coin on a trip. I don’t remember my early childhood trip to Disneyland, but I remember my early teen trip fondly.

Sarmyth,

I do, too, but mostly because it makes me laugh. I especially like watching the dumpsters at work getting picked up and then dropped back down harshly and rolled back into the wall like someone throwing a shopping cart into a corral. Peak IDGAF with a potentially lethal machine. Not even sarcastic here, I love it.

Sarmyth,

LOL, definitely not, but I remember the 90s as well when every stoner wouldn’t shut up about weed bringing anti carcinogenic. Weed kills people beside the user. It’s still hugely safe, but bad decision-making under the influence of weed has probably killed more people than caffeine. You could argue the caffeine didn’t kill them. Their other health condition did. The same way we could argue weed didn’t kill anyone, but the drug trade did.

Sarmyth,

We can blame whoever we want, but deaths are deaths. We can even go further and say that the deaths to user ratio makes the disparity even greater.

Hell, we could go completely nuts and say the stamp tax on tea and other goods leading up to the American Revolutionary War led to the creation of the United States, and therefore, all deaths resulting from the actions of the US could be blamed on caffeine.

Sarmyth,

Whoosh

Sarmyth,

Too true. Upgrading to NVMe was the most noticeable speed boost I’ve experienced all at once in my history of building my own rigs. It’s was like black magic. Wouldn’t shut up about it to all my friends for a month.

Sarmyth,

I like to imagine healing magic as almost a targeted time reversal. Otherwise, things get would get strange when people are overhealed.

My head cannon is also that repeated magical healing increases the risk of cancers and defects when it is shown as a form of natural regrowth. It’s totally worth using in combat if the alternative is death, but you risk shortening your life with repeated use. This helps explain people having sick battle scars and other wounds in most fantasy settings.

The other explanation that would make sense is that healers are exceptionally rare, but since we are heroes in these stories/games, it just doesn’t seem like it to us.

Sarmyth,

I feel like that opens up the opportunity to say they experience rapid aging in that area as well, accelerating cell divisions, right next to areas running at normal speed. Probably wouldn’t be great for the circulatory system.

It’s fun to think about
