Alanna Ubach is a national treasure.

Sure, not saying they’re going away, just that investment in the new option would be how I would spend my money.

Ebay, of course

A periodic table doesnt dictate marginal rate of return on mining the element.

Consult a periodic table on which element conducts electricity best and then explain why copper is the most commonly used metal for wires.

I only play BAR in skirmishes, never online. Love the game, but so rarely play as to not know how to co-op well.

That being said, this is how colonial era wars worked. You’re the battery that was India in WWII? Or are you the UK making units?

Sodium-ion and maaaaybe iron are promising, with sodium-ion making the most headway.

Not quite widely commercially available yet, but I wouldn’t invest heavily in lithium is it was me.

How is something dressed like a road cone hard to find?

None that I’m aware of going back a few generations. No one else in my family has this at all, and I definitely had some of the “should we worry about this child?” stuff for a while.

The cleaning fingerprint thing isn’t unreasonable in some rare contexts, but thouching all keys on a full keyboard is where it really goes off into paranoia.

Disabling fingerprint biometrics at night…why? What’s the risk you’re worried about? Someone breaking into your house to use your fingers to unlock your phone while you’re asleep? You can get hacked much easier without anyone ever being in your home. Anyone in your house can use Celebrite without touching you.

I’m a privacy and security enthusiast, and I agree, this sounds like the edge of needing to talk to someone. Theres a lot here that no one worried about their security would ever do.

I believe it’s a sensory processing thing since I also have strong ASMR, but I do what I guess might be called “tagging” by some, which is that rubbing the hems of things made with certain fabrics between my fingers or toes, where fingers meet the hand, is incredibly self-soothing. Great when tired.

Not all fabrics are the same. The hems of jeans are usually the best. Needs to be relatively stiff fabric, and sharp corners also do it. Canvas is good. Dress pants, linen, and light fabrics just do nothing.

As a kid my parents had some terrible polyester blanket with a defect where the middle of the hem on one side was some think plastic thread that was like fishing line. In one area it was really tight and bunched up. It was a high I rode until I wore a hole in that spot of the blanket.

Your friends are idiots. People watching is a normal human trait.

Einstein did the same thing.

That being said, I have various clothes because of weather, and generally expend next to no thought on what I wear in as far as people are concerned. It all mostly goes together, so it’s just grabbing whatever feels right in the moment with no wrong answers other than weather factor. I probably spend more time thinking about what I’ll make for dinner, or how to word a single email to touchy snowflakes.

Yep, you’re right. My mistake.

Yep, my bad math. Good catch. Far more worth it.

Not really. For a paltry $6 million gross, this wouldn’t be worth the risk from lawsuits. Regardless of what people signed from the preorders. Plus, have you meet any of his diehard supporters? They’re certainly on board with this. They already buy watches and other crap.

While I appreciate the money laundering suggestion, there’s much easier ways to do that at a larger scale. The crypto scam, for example.

Edit:yep, $60 million. My bad math. Far more worth it.

Holy shit, the comments on this post have me worried for you all.

Sao Tome is clearly a finger… Or not.
