re: AI answers the ultimate OT question: Can a 100 unarmed men defeat a gorilla in a fight?
Posted by rintintin on 4/28/25 at 8:11 pm
quote:
100 men weighs almost 10 tons. All it takes is 100 to charge at once, get the gorilla down, and everyone jump on top of him. You will have a bunch of casualties but a gorilla does not have the strength to overcome 10 tons.
This
If the men are completely fearless of death then you dogpile the gorilla and suffocate him.
If it's normal bros who want to go home later and play video games then 1,000 wouldn't be enough.
The psychological aspect is everything in this scenario.

The essentials are pretty cheap and the house wives in yoga pants are elite if you're in a good area.

Funny prank but as usual today's generation has to film everything and ruin it.

re: Which drives an economy more - Greed or Envy?
Posted by rintintin on 4/22/25 at 12:16 pm

Envy leads to punishing success for the sake of the unsuccessful. It destroys incentives for improvement and progress. Envy is for the losers in life who want to stay losers.
This
Over time envy leads to policies that penalize success.
At the extreme it leads to socialism and communism.
It is by no means an economy driver.

Sure, it "can" be made.
It's the effort of making it that is the main issue.

I moved to MN and let me tell it's hard as hell to get good ingredients for Louisiana cooking.
I found one little grocery in the hood that sells good stuff.
Also some Asian markets will have LA products.
Otherwise I buy stuff online.
I've all but given up on good French bread though.

I've seen more people pass out in church than anywhere. Fanning is probably more helpful than you think.
re: I had no idea Grok was an app. Not sure how the rest of my life unfolds
Posted by rintintin on 4/20/25 at 9:33 am
Grok is awesome. Way better than Chatgpt IMO.
It has completely taken over all of my Googling. Google has been reduced to basically maps and shopping.

re: M.I.P. - alcohol seizure in Florida (Spring Break)
Posted by rintintin on 4/20/25 at 9:21 am
Brings back memories of high school spring break when cops made us watch as they emptied every drop of alcohol in the hotel bath tub.
We were able to get a few cases in a hidden bed compartment but could never retrieve them. I always wonder how long those cases sat there unfound.

These political influencers have realized they can make way more money by being outlandish and controversial than reasonable (ala Alex Jones).
The script is to get recognized and gain an audience through normal media channels. Then branch off with your own thing, become a loon and become filthy rich.

Went to Cambodia some years ago and loved it. The temple ruins are incredible. Super nice people.
The killing fields are horrible though.
Also we got bed bugs which was quite a treat.

re: For those who watched the BCS era…and argued for a playoff system and players getting NIL
Posted by rintintin on 4/15/25 at 9:55 pm
I've been a very strong proponent of a playoff, but yes I kinda miss the old system now.
It was silly and didn't make sense but in a fun and entertaining kind of way.
It's no longer unique and all the NIL bullshite waters it down even more.

re: Americans spend an average of 5hrs 16 mins on their phone each day
Posted by rintintin on 4/12/25 at 10:56 am
Just looked at mine and I'm at 2 hours. Pleased with that.
I've made it a point to decrease phone usage. Similarly I read before bed and really avoid all social media except this site occasionally.
It's really because I've become uninterested in alot of internet content. If I'm not researching or planning something then I'm typically not on my phone.
