The simple fact that untreated rabies is almost 100% fatal means that the vaccine is worth it. Not many diseases are almost 100% fatal, and at least this one's preventable if caught.

I've always been of the opinion that a person's go-to insult shows more about themselves than anything else. Like how the people who shout the loudest about gays tend to be closet homosexuals, etc. Same with pedophiles. And Elon is very quick to call someone a pedophile. His whole family is weird and messed up — his father groomed his stepdaughter (Elon's stepsister) that he raised since she was 4 years old, and they have several kids together — so it wouldn't surprise me if Elon is himself a pedophile.

That's what happens when you hire Stanley Kubrick to stage your moon landing video. The guy's such a perfectionist, he insisted on shooting on location.

I mean, his name's Cillian.

~~Not always. More and more phones in the budget range utilize a "virtual" proximity sensor which actually uses the camera for the same function.~~

You're thinking of the gyroscope, but no. Some phones have a dedicated proximity sensor for things like detecting if you're in a call and have the phone up to your ear, but more and more phones (especially the budget ones) these days use a "virtual" proximity sensor which utilizes the front camera to perform the same function.

You can tell it's a religion because they've got the hypocrisy part down pat.

Considering that this is the most hated person on Reddit other than spez himself, no tears were shed.

Yes to the rice cooker. Also, there's no need to get one of those expensive models. Someone did some blind tests with his elderly Japanese in-laws (so you know they're serious about rice) and they found that the mid-range ones are the best for cost effectiveness. https://youtu.be/WXgFtZK_XxM

It's a matter of preference. Some people may want greater control over what instances they federate with. Some people just want to tinker with the kbin software and play around with it. Others choose to do it so that can have a custom domain or so they can have a username that's been taken elsewhere. The beauty of the Fediverse is that it doesn't really matter that much where you go, since you more or less have access to pretty much everything anyway.

Following in the footsteps of r/pics and r/gifs, r/aww is also holding a poll to decide whether to go back to "normal" or to only feature images of John Oliver, Chiijohn, or their lookalikes being adorable.

Poll is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/aww/comments/14bt0c1

So basically, according to Reddit, they own everything on Reddit. That means all the the CP, hate speech — and in this case, piracy — that are posted on Reddit are Reddit's responsibility. Bold strategy, cotton. They're basically waiving their net neutrality.
