White background? Interesting.

"Americans" is a stupidly large and diverse population to say anything meaningful about. It's extremely unlikely that that any population of humans of such a size doesn't include some individuals who are more extreme than you, both more and less, for almost all traits.

You're less likely to observe introverts than extroverts because one of those types will tend to do things in a way that are less likely to get your attention. You might well be experiencing observation/selection bias, possibly also reinforced by confirmation bias.

But whatever you think to be the "typical", even if you could estimate it using some unbiased sampling method, it is often not a helpful way describe the whole population, or at best a reductive "average" that has limited useful applications.

TLDR - human populations are diverse. I don't think any nation has ever effectively brainwashed or eugenicised their population into a single homogeneous group.

You've got to stop all those who put: abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz

That's my password for most things, any hackers die of RSI before they get in.

Does that say "Sir Ballin' wielded the Lance of Longpenis"?

Modern depictions aren't pron enough.

At least those are handling actual data you're doing serious work with.

Chrome is something I'd mostly be using for a few bits (well maybe Kbits) of reference text. I blame the websites as much as chrome itself. I assume the OS is smart enough to cache that somewhere though when I want the ram for something else.

MS teams is just siting there eating c.1gb for nothing but to be an annoying pos. Outlook doing the same but not as much resources I think.

But it's true when I have to kill a task it is much more likely to be one where I've knowingly put several GB of data into ram to do stuff with.

The ifixit toolkit has it - well with a hex shank.

But the last time i actually opened that hatch, i had to split a sliver off a wooden stick (coffee stirrer).

Well, its on lemmy and you're several comments deep.

You're almost bound to hit a vein of unsolicited socialism/communism by that point - it's basic geology.

It seems to me that quite a lot of people want flies and that's why quite a lot of resources are put into that type of shit.

I was trying to explain to this dude in the pub - who didn't understand my explanation that I don't have a hairstyle - that I thought vanity was a waste of resources, and he looked at me like: "but everyone wants to look good, right?" He was confused. I was confused.

I'm confused, how does any of this help me determine whether that dude is a skilled lover or not?

I tought you had to play blackjack/ pontoon/ 21 to count cards?

I disagree that it's conservative. It's nazi/ authoritarian/radical. For 50 odd years afer ww2 the cons knew this was a daft tactic. Prior to that (well prior to 1790 ish ) con/feudal/landowners managed their serfs and peasants, they didn't want infighting. (outfighting, thats a different , maybe lucrative albeit lottery).

Cons are just common or garden cunts. populists are serious, they can mobilise labour .

The traditional cons wil ride the wave because they have no choice and no friends. until they realise they'll be expropriated eventually, which the nazis won't do until after they have critical mass. Fucking con Niemollers

cheap and easy.

It's many thousands of years of solar power , concentated in to a storable, portable and fairly accessible and transmutable form.

Countries don't "generate" coal and oil, they suck it out of the ground. It was generated by thousands to millions of years of life and accumulated geological processes.
