“a presumed motor vehicle”

Hah dude thinks it’s possible to be out there like Fred Flintstone powering his vehicle with his feet

Been there. Lots of times

Which asian language uses those?

This is a commonly quoted fun fact that is not really true. There are 2 different definitions of calorie. One means the absolute amount of energy in an object, the other means the bioavailable amount of energy that a human can extract from it using their digestive system.

So every physical object that exists has some amount of potential energy contained within it which we can express in calories, but that doesn’t mean it has any bioavailable calories. For example glass has some significant amount of energy contained within it, but it has 0 bioavailable calories.

This “fun fact” mixes up the two definitions, making the statement meaningless.

(Nothing against you OP, this is a commonly repeated falsehood)

Fyi “basil” is not the same thing as “thai basil”

Thanks for the info, but what is the functional difference to the end user?

I’m not clear on what the distinction is that you’re referring to. How are the Linux window managers different than the win/mac ones?

There are tiling window managers for win and mac too, so i don’t think this meme makes sense

If a motor is performing a job task then by definition it’s not idle

OP didn’t ask what you seem to think they asked

No, that’s not how it works, the cops have nothing to do with it. You tell your defense attorney that you were watching youtube, your attorney tells the judge you need those records from google, the judge’s court sends a warrant to google inc., then google sends those records to the court.

The police have nothing to do with it. They aren’t used to obtain records, that’s done through the legal system like court orders

I literally already said the answer to that in my original comment.

Are oceans getting saltier? The glaciers that are melting are pure freshwater

EDIT

I’m not an expert but from a quick googling it seems the oceans are getting LESS salty

How DARE he make life better for everyone by doing something wonderful that happens to make a couple of people’s commute 15 seconds longer. How DARE he!

1. Stop dismissing that men have problems which require addressing

A lot of people say things like “men have it the best, they don’t need help!” That’s nonsense. Everyone who is dealing with problems and is suffering needs help. Helping men doesn’t mean you stop helping women, we should help everyone who needs help.

2. Stop purity tests and infighting

Progressives today are truly awful when it comes to this. I’m not talking about including nazis, I’m talking about attacking people who agree with you on 90% of topics. Like if someone thinks trans people should be totally treated as the gender they express in every facet of society, except they shouldn’t be allowed to compete in women’s physical sports competitions.

3. Messaging needs HUGE improvement

This is another one that progressives have a terrible problem with. They do a terrible job of letting people know how they’re being helped, and they also use language that gives the impression that they’re against you. For example “the patriarchy” is a terrible term that makes men feel attacked, even though that’s not what it’s about at all. What most people actually mean to refer to is “gender norms”, meaning concepts like ‘men should fuck a lot of women and not express their emotions’. “Gender norms” is a much more accurate term and it doesn’t make men feel like they’re being attacked.

Oy, dude, no. You couldn’t prove my point any more clearly

Ridiculously pretentious comment, and at least half of it isn’t even meaningfully true.
