acting like there aren’t stupid people is ridiculous, you’re blatantly disregarding half the population. nice.

and thank you for echoing my sentiment, they need to be engineered FOR, as in, products must be created that accommodate them otherwise they’ll harm themselves and others at every turn.

but you, you’re a snarky one who likes to poke at people but doesn’t like to be poked back at, so, get bent, and have a great day.

gonna block you now.

People really aren’t dumb

I think that’s a really wide open statement that’s obviously missing nuance. There is a tremendous amount of product design that is dedicated to making sure the user can’t use it in a way that’s dangerous or harmful.

there’s a reason for the world around us and it takes different folks. I do consulting, and the engineers (who usually call me under duress) always get frustrated with finance.

it’s funny you thought this was some kind of dunking contest, like, oof, you really got those engineers you wily cpa, haha.

it’s not the flex you might imagine.

why? because it’s all they have left.

demographics are changing. their population is aging. their kids hate the way they live and move away.

volume units. duh.

but only if you take out the meatsacks, otherwise it’ll only hold 3.

4.2 if you take the people out.

imagine spending so many lives re-taking territory you once held to find no new washing machines to steal, just the same blasted rubble you left six months ago?

oof-that’s-gotta-hurt.wav

every time I see this I involuntarily chortle about the buoyant shells

but no it’d still be better than the welded up t62 turtle tank

here’s what I’d like to know: would we perceive any of this pigmentation from the lunar surface?

get fucked

And it is the worst kind of engineers who dismiss that stuff with “omg people are so stupid”. Other (better) companies have worked it out. It’s a reasonable expectation. No ones forcing you to make goods for this market, but the constraints are what they are.

well put. automotive design should start with the ‘so stupid’ crowd and work it’s way up - a tremendous amount of product design is making it exceptionally hard for the user to do something fatal, and Tesla just does not grok this at all.

this cybertwat shit is unsafe at any speed.

They don’t like onions

FIREANTS DON’T LIKE ANYTHING. Even other fireants. So glad they don’t live here.

someone put a hell of a lot of work into sculpting and casting those, then painting them.

they’re hideous but I’m impressed.

evolution is convinced that carcinization is the shit, top of the tier list every time.

it’s not, but evolution is convinced lol

only if, “I’m all out of meth” didn’t work.

edit fat fingers

lol you think people want to come to your party, that’s cute

<play wonderwall> flicks lighter

do all invertebrates molt?

I thought the slime coating took care of that. Boy is greasy like a white castle slider.

aw, did the bidenman scare you son?

jfc, did you really link to 538, a polling org, about the veracity of it’s polling? ok, allow me to retort:

dude. have some self respect. Meanwhile, a wider search reveals it’s not nearly as cut and dry as you portray.

THIS IS A THEME WITH YOUR GARBAGE:

You’re consistently misrepresenting the “OVERWHELMING” evidence and kinda acting like a whiny little bitch who’s angry EVERYONE WON’T PANIC RIGHT NOW with you.

Go huff into a paper sack, you’re gonna have a fit kid.

Gonna block you now, have a great life. I’m sure no matter how the future turns out, you’ll predict the worst so probably be kinda ok with whatever happens lol.

I don’t know how to get through to you that he’s losing.

show me some facts. show me what will override women saying “FUCK THIS” re: ROE and vote them out, like they did in the midterms. I don’t think you’re looking at the entire picture

remember when the polls all promised a red wave? yeah

Smash the glass and pull the alarms! All bets ARE off!

ah yes, let’s panic and run around having a last-minute candidate change lol, that’ll fucking help. or they can continue to let trump be trump while he rapidly implodes.

edit: bruh shut the fuck up right quick didn’t you?
