Humans should lay eggs
  • Once you get it about 2/3rds of the way out, simply relaxing causes the rest to come out on its own.

    The hard part of pushing out a baby is far less than 2/3 of the baby. Once you get past the shoulders they just slide out. And they are pretty slippery with all that amniotic fluid.

  • Barcelona is turning subway trains into power stations
  • Are they generating more power than they are spending by making the train go? Has Barcelona mastered perpetual motion??

    It's good thing, sure, but it's no savior. The blurb makes it sound like it's a net gain of energy, and that's impossible. It's not free energy. It's just upcycled waste.

  • In the doghouse [Clearly Confused]
  • Well Billy, it's when a penis penetrates persons vagina or anus without using a condom.

    Have fun now explaining condoms or why they would put a penis inside someone, to a person who is still learning how to wipe their own ass properly.

    Part of the reason why parents dodge these questions is because they know that more questions will follow, and while kids absolutely should be learning about sex (as in, having healthy sexual relationships) from their parents, that's a conversation that's better started a little closer to puberty.

  • California governor signs law banning all plastic shopping bags at grocery stores.
  • We have more trees, yes, but we have fewer forests.

    Forests are where the biodiversity is. Not monoculture straight-row tree farms.

    And we've gotten rid of a lot of old growth forests before we came into renewable forestry. That's partly why lumber these days isn't as good (quality, in general) as it was 50 or 100 years ago.

    And we're still tearing down old forests. This time, it's to grow soy to feed to cows.

  • Rockstar Games DDoSed Heavily By Players Protesting New AntiCheat Code
  • Nobody likes cheating.

    However, a lot of people don't like anti-cheat mechanisms that are essentially rootkits, and especially nobody likes when a product is changed long after it's release in a way that makes it unusable (as the new anti-cheat forbids Linux).

  • TIL if The Bare Naked Ladies had $1m when the song was recorded, and parked it in S&P500, they'd be rich.

    While $1m USD in 1988 is worth only $2.6m in 2024, if they just put it in the S&P 500 back then and left it there, it'd be worth over $44.6m today.

    I don't know if the Dijon ketchup is really worth it.
