I’ve tried talking to trumpers to point out the double standards, contradictions, and outright lies. They don’t listen, just ad hominem or whatabout out of it.

I am jonesing for this game so bad

I think you mean against him, but regardless I think that asylum claim would be an uphill battle in many countries

Ah instead of running a dehumidifier 24/7 like some people I know, makes sense

What’s a dew point ventilator for?

Interesting question, I found this

You can’t make a baby with two moms by simply fusing two eggs or adding one egg’s DNA to another’s.  Even though the resulting embryo would have the usual 46 chromosomes, this wouldn’t work.

The reason isn’t some special string of A’s, G’s, T’s or C’s found in dad’s DNA.  No, instead it has to do with chemical marks found on egg and sperm DNA.  This methylation (as the marks are called) makes the DNA from each parent unique, and you need both to make a baby.

What these marks do is affect how at least 80 different genes are used.  In science speak, these genes are imprinted.

As you may remember, we have two copies of each of our genes, one from each biological parent.  The chemical marks shut off either the copy from the egg or sperm, depending on which has the marks present…

If an embryo’s DNA came from two parents of the same sex, then both copies of some of these imprinted genes will be shut off.  And for the rest of these genes, both copies will be turned on.  Embryos simply can’t survive when so many genes are out of whack. In fact, diseases like Angelman syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, and Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome can happen when just one of these genes isn’t passed on properly.

I never thought about that, but it makes sense

Crashing waves at the beach. Seagulls are little assholes but they add to the effect for me

Yeah maybe to their three mile island project. What a weird sentence. Just a few years off from our Weyland Yutani future

Gotcha, sounds like we’re measuring two different things then

79,000,000 / 2,550 = 30,980

I just got an email from Reuters just the other day saying they’re implementing a paywall. Looks like they’re trying to find multiple new revenue streams

That’s roughly 30k for every employee laid off

Apple One is expensive but my whole family uses it and the only offered service I don’t really use much is Apple News.

Legends: Arceus was ok but I tend to agree

This perspective is hurting my brain

Definitely try to use examples to help them get a glimpse into the issue. I like to explain documentation errors by pointing out when what are supposed to be sequentially recorded timestamps are recorded out of order in my work’s database. Sometimes the data quality isn’t there.

Mad at the quality of technology posts.

Makes another low quality post.

Yeah…
