I guess they don't consider it bluesky defeating twitter if twitter is commiting suicide. Sounds like pedantry to me.

I pirate all the time. Until recently mostly on public trackers. Had malware once when I was like 12 and that's about it. Sounds like a skill issue. Also, most cracked games get updates.

Fair enough. Yeah, I thought that maybe there were still small, unclaimed islands out there where you could have a small farm with solar power and shit and be self sufficient.

I have a question about the fun fact. Trying to better understand it. If I were rich enough to buy an island and move to it, would that be the new last place to be settled by humans? If no, why not. And if yes, then surely there's at least one example of someone doing that since the 13th century.

I'm not talking about repainting anything, why are you moving the goalposts? Just buy a white car AND use a visor, what's wrong with that? And in the future, if this stuff is actually good, maybe all cars can come already painted with it?

Maybe the fact that the experiment was done when outside were only 20-22 degrees made the difference less noticeable? Otherwise I can't explain why all the other tests I've found said the difference was 5-10+ degrees.

Could you link one of these? All the ones that I can find say there's quite a bit of a difference

Mythbusters did an experiment with a black car and a white car hitting in the sun. The black car was 12 degrees Celsius hotter. Claiming that the paint makes no difference is such a weird take. I thought this was common knowledge as well as many people I've met avoid darker colours in summer and such.

Not saying getting 10 mil likes is easy, because it's not, but that ratio of likes to views is pretty low in your example. Mr beast has 30 mil likes for a video with 150 mil views, for example. (Which, in all fairness, has a much higher ratio than average, but still)

Elections are this sunday. Nobody's been elected yet.

He's literally using the wrong pronouns and name for his transgender daughter. He's literally said he agrees with JK Rowling's transphobic comments.

You know how after a certain time has passed it's no longer a spoiler to talk about how Vader is Luke's father? Well, there's certain stuff that's so obvious and widely known that people will stop believing that you don't know about it and will assume you're trolling.The fact that you keep insisting that you haven't seen evidence of him being queerphobe is on you at this point, imo.
