None of those look remotely edible to me.

Oh…. Chewing… ah… can… can I get another one? This one's…. gulp, a little worse for wear.

Too much fat, or gluten. Depends if you got your liver from the front or the back row on that picture.

This is almost certainly a montage

I've fallen victim to a false friend there, haven't I?

(A Photomontage in German is a forged picture in general). So, let me fix this:

This is almost certainly photoshopped.

Well, Google will probably optimize their shit for their own privacy invasion sniffing tool browser twice as hard as for Firefox and such

Norgur , 9 hours ago

That's a really weird take. Like… what even is the difference supposed to be?

This sounds more like “everything should be as it was back when <insert arbitrary point in time here>! When there were still Webpages, and we were frolicking about the internet! Until the fire nation attacked Web apps took over!”

I mean... What contribution would this code actually be to the audio player world at this point?

Norgur , 7 days ago

I don't think that you could reproduce the llama ass whipping feature even with all the code available.

Norgur , 7 days ago

Cease your heresy!

Norgur , 7 days ago

That's just a lie by the secret llama world government to distract us from whipping their asses.

Norgur , 7 days ago

Not always, since the Llama MP3 that came preloaded was introduced somewhere in 1.xx, yet that's still long enough (from 1998 to 2011 or so).

yep.

“Extra Level”? It's more about taking the burden off the women for me. Why do they, and only they, always have to mess up their bodies?

Norgur , 8 days ago

Oh, wow, do you come off as uninformed! Birth control for women has tons and tons of side effects, and it's in no way easier to prevent successful ovulation than it is to prevent fertile sperm production. In fact, birth control drugs for men have been repeatedly blocked by regulators for having too many side effects, while those side effects pretty closely mirror those of the pill for women. So, interfering with everything from blood pressure to appetite is acceptable when women are affected, but can't be burdened upon men?

Interrupting the ovulation cycle comes at great cost for the body. All the “non-hormonal” ways of birth control we have (except the condom) require either poisonous metals and foreign objects to be pushed inside the uterus, increasing the risk for cysts, causing pain, and regular checkups and painful procedures to be applied or fitted (diaphragm). Or toxins to be applied straight into a woman's private parts (spermicides). Calendar-based methods and “pulling out” have large margins of error, as have condoms.

Norgur , 8 days ago

Yep.

Firstly: Disregarding the discomfort of having to see the doctor and having something shoved inside your body is a weird mistake, especially men tend to make regularly when talking about those things. Having your genitals exposed to and then painfully tampered with by what is ultimately a stranger isn't a thing most people would describe as a pleasant afternoon activity.

The side effects aren't just from hormones. Imagine having to do a prostate exam every 6 months and a metal plug shoved close to your prostate through your urethra every few years (not the same, of course, just an attempt at an analogy, since men are one hole short down there). Wouldn't you dislike that? Many women are really sensitive around their cervix and implanting the IUD can therefore be really painful.

Secondly: Period cramps increase in severity, bleeding increases for most people, and there are hints that those IUDs can increase the risk for cysts, which in turn cause issues, pain and sometimes need surgical removal.

Norgur , 8 days ago

yeah, not wanting 10 children is a matter of cost, of course. It's baffling to me how unreflected and naive opinions regarding reproduction still are...

Norgur , 8 days ago

A “numbers game”? Do you think there are little men in your balls, strangulating every sperm cell when it's formed? Or… do you think the pill works by somehow interfering with the ovum itself?

Because it doesn't. Quite the opposite. Just as male contraception methods don't try to kill sperm, but to shut down the factory. Besides: You cannot measure the difficulty or complexity of medical procedures by how many cells are affected. By that logic, brain surgery would be way easier to do than amputating a leg.

Norgur , 8 days ago

I've got one, but I wouldn't want another one every year, and I certainly would not want to stop having fun times with the wife either...

Norgur , 8 days ago

1. why is your experience the norm and what I say "pretty rare" not the other way around? Or do you consider "two women I know" a representative group? Are "two women I knew" more significant than what professionals will tell you?

Paragard side effects can include:

spotting between periods

irregular periods

heavier or longer periods

more or worse cramping during your periods

pain when your IUD is put in, and cramping or back aches for a few days after

2. Was that a copper IUD (which was what I wrote about) or a hormonal IUD?

Norgur , 8 days ago

Woah there, you shouldn't berate someone, belittling them for being “too young” and then act like a child in the supermarket when they didn't get the Matchbox Car they wanted. Jeez!

The Hippocratic oath is not a thing in most countries and not applicable anyway. If it was, kidney transplants would be done without a doctor present (in the US that is, don't overestimate your little made up oath ritual internationally)

Norgur , 7 days ago

While that is indubitably correct, the only jurisdiction I know that makes binding references to whatever is used as “Hippocratic oath” is the U.S.

Well, your response is telling as well. You night not notice, but there is a serious twist in your logic: why is it on McDonald's to feed the homeless? It shouldn't be and they cannot be called out for not doing it. By blaming companies for stuff like that, you obfuscate where the blame should really go: everyone in any form of government and everyone supporting bullshit narratives that social welfare and capitalism are polar opposites and cannot go together. Don't waste your energy on fucking companies. They will not foot the bill the government should.

Norgur , 10 days ago

No, it's not. People will complain regularly about places like Burger King and McDonald's who throw ice cubes into drinks. I, personally, hate it as well. I don't want my water close to the freezing point, and I would rather not get bumped int the teeth by lumps of frozen water that dilute my drink and hurt my teeth.

Norgur , 10 days ago

Exactly. Don't blame fucking companies for doing what companies were always about to do. Blame the government for letting them. If you get mauled by a lion, you won't blame the lion, you (or your heirs) will blame the zoo for saving money on the fence. Why is it different with companies?

Norgur , 10 days ago

there is no defense in there. I never defended the company. I just called your stance that companies ought to do social welfare unreasonable. I very much like everyone to do social welfare stuff, but to blame companies when they refuse to do what the fucking government should is just a pretty twisted stance, innit?

edit: why the duck am I getting down voted for that? If you disagree with me spending my money however the fuck I want (forma search engine for example), at least drop a sentence or two as to why...

Oh, dear… tell me that this is not about the audacity they had in daring to query the brave search API as one of many search engines!
The argument here is beyond petty in my eyes, downvoting and not engaging in a conversation is even more petty….

Going down the only road I've ever known

And I've made up my mind
I ain't wasting no more time.
