Finally my time to shine. Looking wayyy back at the history of their evolution, they come from a dinosaur (the ironically named Steadfastasaurus) which has the first ever example of a "pull switch" joint, which allowed them to fake an attack on prey. You might wonder why you would need to fake out an attack, but the answer is as simple as why boxers fake hits today; that is, their prey was a competing predator. They were known to feast on Pregdonalons which had a slow reaction speed evidenced by their diminished prefrontal cortex and amygdala, so the Steadfastasaurus would lurch forward, provoking the Pregdonalon, before immediately counter striking and having a succulent Chinese meal.
It should be noted that I made all this up and have no idea what I'm talking about

More deaths than births. It just means more deaths than births. Not sure why you assume women need to kill babies for that to be a reality.

One Google search later,
Selling counterfeit illicit drugs is illegal even if the substances used to make the imitation drug are not illegal on themselves

Eh, it's not really that cut and dry. You could debate either way with plenty of evidence, in the end it's really a limit to the semantics of language
Edit: here's a neat article that talks about it

But without the high intensity part. Just starting and stopping something as simple as a walk can increase energy consumption by over 50%, I found that neat. The comparison to a car really resonated with me; I hate coming to a stop because I know it kills my gas mileage, but now I want to try to emulate that in my daily physical activities

Most indoor spaces aren't infested. Having a little hunter around helps keep it that way

I hate this news story. If I wasn't living in this community (Douglas county) I would think it's a good story. However, Douglas county has massive NIMBY policies, including outlawing everything that would allow someone experiencing homelessness anywhere near here. No homeless shelters are legal, no sleeping outside is legal, hell even weed stores are illegal in this massive county, despite it being legal in the majority of the state. Douglas county also created its own health department in protest of mask and vaccine mandates. It's a very affluent deeply conservative pocket in Colorado that makes me sick.
Went to Google Play to complain about Hulu. I noticed Google advertising that over 300 reviews had the verbatim quote "watch and movies that you love". It's always confusing that buggy corporate apps have >95% 5 star reviews until you see that the majority are just completely fake, and no one cares or is doing anything about it.
For context I'm in the US. The last time I used YouTube without an ad blocker, there were 2 ads back to back, and way too frequently. I tried watching on my PlayStation tonight, and not only are they more frequent, *they've increased in quantity by 150%*. It's also very common for the last ad to last 2 minutes to *over an hour long*. What the actual fuck, why would anyone watch YouTube without an ad blocker at this point? It's literally unwatchable Edit: the amount of unsolicited advice in the comments is unreal. I don't get ads on my phone or on desktop, I'm very aware of how to block them. I simply won't watch YouTube on my PlayStation anymore. I'm not looking for suggestions, please stop with the recommendations.
I don't have many people to celebrate with. Part of getting older is celebrating alone, which is sobering and a change of perception. If you're reading this, I hope you're safe. I hope you're with family that loves you, I got you have a friend. The world seems dark, but it truly is safer than ever. Don't give into the media my friend. We're truly in a golden age of information sharing, which makes life terrifying but lucid and evolving.
Has anyone else noticed that the Google Play store reviews are suspicious? Like, you find a scam company or app, and every review you scroll through is 1 star. And yet the reviews claim 95%+ are positive. Is there a way to prove it? I've noticed it for 3 years now, I no longer think it's a coincidence. Something scummy or scammy is going on
Lately I've seen some... Questionable ads, to say the least. Is there no way to report these ads on sync? If there is, am I just dumb and blind? Or is it easier than it seems? It feels like early Reddit all over again to me, hopefully I'm wrong For context, Android user, been here a few months, and I opt out of everything that's easy/simple/apparent to opt out of
