HubertManne, to nostupidquestions in Why do people throw out old motors, bicycles, anything metal into rivers and lakes instead of a junk yard or the trash system?
HubertManne avatar

HubertManne, to showerthoughts in It makes zero sense that the room people associate with hygiene and the room people defecate in is for a majority of people the same room
HubertManne avatar

my brothers house second bathroom was split into two with one being a sink and toilet and a shower in the room with the laundry units. Its actually great as it virtually give you three bathrooms in the sense someone can shower while another person is using the toilet. well I guess that can always be done but uh. its better.

HubertManne, to patientgamers in What free2play game are you currently hooked on?

HubertManne, to aboringdystopia in High inflation made finances worse for 65% of Americans last year

yeah I guess the question is are you typical. I have been losing since 20222. It was sorta end of 2021 but its the start of 2024 now so about 2 years. Mostly I have been steady since 2013. No real significant growth but no loss. There is an outlier with 2020 as I was let go with decent severance for covid but then actually found a new job in my field pretty quick and then we had the covid stimulus. So that was one of my best years ever overall. Oh also before I was let go I ironically had a lot of overtime (yes I had an enviable hourly full time tech job so got overtime but also a severance going out). That is really an outlier though. I started my current career track after moving into tech in 2000 so had a lot of growth between 2000 and 2012 as I established myself in the field. Now a good amount of effects are personal and unique to me. I would trade post 20000 though with two more 90's economy decades but I would trade them all for the horrible 70's if it meant our use of plastic was minimal and we still had decent regulation and taxes.

I wonder how it will effect their watershed. Especially given how big they are on farmland.

HubertManne, to asklemmy in You can create matter.
HubertManne avatar

Some people are answering as if you can transmute stuff and yes if that is the case I would remove a lot of pollution but if its just create I would work on getting enough money to buy an island and then claim I had come across large deposits of rare earths and tritium and stuff to make sustainable energy as cheap as possible. maybe carbon fiber as well as it can make many things more efficient and use less power. I would ahead of time have the formulas for many types of munitions as well to handle the assaults the oil companies would throw at me.

HubertManne, to science in How the US used science to wage psychological war
HubertManne avatar

I remember in the 80's they used science to wage optical warfare.

HubertManne, to linux in Ultramarine Linux 40 Released!
HubertManne avatar

I go the opposite way. Why have a ton of people making the same tweaks when someone can just roll a distro with the tweaks at the get go. puppy linux was like an extreme version of this.

HubertManne, to unpopularopinion in Microsoft's screenshot everything feature isn't so bad
HubertManne avatar

HubertManne, to asklemmy in What are you currently excited for?
HubertManne avatar
