Gen Z definitely drinks a lot, at least in my personal experience, but studies agrees with the comic, so I guess it would depend on the country/age group

try out Gallery (yes, it’s really called just “Gallery”), I’ve found it to be the best one out there, even better then aves

furiously searches for that one video from 5 years ago

yeah you should absolutely support your local library if you can, I’m just an introvert who doesn’t like it

try anna’s archive and sci-hub next time, they usually have most papers for free

headlights?

hell nah I’m just gonna sip on some water and patiently wait for the moment where I’m suddenly treated as their savior for still being able to drive

x: your eyes are as bright as a star

my dumbass: actually, did you know that the sun outputs 3.83×10²⁶ W? that’s so much that the energy output by the Sun in just one hour could power the Earth for about 56.1 trillion years at the current global consumption rate. Or, if you …blah blah blah something something Kardashev scale…

yeaaaa not my proudest move

as someone who just doesn’t like the taste of alcohol, being the only sober guy in a friend group where everyone’s drunk sucks so much

it’s not a logistics nightmare, we used to do that until plastic gave us the idea of single use containers, many restaurants still do it with larger 1L bottles

also, while yes glass does have a really high melting point, most plastics never get recycled and instead get burnt, releasing a lot of toxic chemicals in the air (and even if they weren’t, you can only recycle some types of plastics, and even if you did, new objects can be made only by some percentage of recycled plastic, and never 100%)

FYI cans have a plastic liner to prevent acidic foods from dissolving the aluminium, so there’s still some plastic in it (much less then fully plastic bottles tho)

TL:DR cloudflare made a new recaptcha which does some complex math and other stuff on your browser, which done once has no noticable effect but if someone were to scrape websites at an absurd speed it slows everything down significantly.

this is not only cool because you don’t have to manually solve the captcha, but also because it allows for low-speed scraping to be feasible, with tools like flaresolverr

usually college networks have a Mac address whitelist, so you need to turn off Mac spoofing in order to connect

yuuupp

time to see if countries have learned their lesson or if we’ll have another fucked up generation

holy shit why have I never thought of this before (seriously, I’m not kidding)

reading the article, it looks like part of the benzene somehow made it to the final product, and that’s why it needs to be replaced
