"I have to admit, when I first glanced at the title, I saw “BETTY White Paint”. Wait — she has a paint named after her???\n\nSeriously, though, cool idea (pun intended). You can actually see the difference in the shade. It’ll be interesting to see how things work out. \n\nBut Betty White paint would be cool, too.",
"Literally cool.",
"there gonna need to incorporate that paint color into the Fibertite roofing fabric their standing on.",
"1% of the Earth's surface is about 2 million square miles, or about 2/3 of the contiguous US. That's a lot of fucking paint.",
"efficiency probably goes down as it becomes dirtier too.",
"Still though, seems like such a simple measure to make an enormous difference.",
"They’re",
"no one said it isn't.",
"Someone explain black body radiation to me again.\n\nHow is it cooler than the ambient air temperature? What if I put it in a dark room? Won't conduction make it the same temperature?",
"I’m in that classroom at 0:26. Bastards used the only shot where his head is blocking me lmao.",
"[This cited answer says only 3% of the surface of earth is covered by urban areas.](https://www.quora.com/What-percentage-of-Earths-land-is-used-for-infrastructure-like-roads-buildings-all-pavement-etc)\n\nSo basically every structure, everywhere, painted white.",
"No one said someone said it isn’t.",
"TL;DR: This paint reflects almost all of the incoming radiation, so solar radiation barely heats it up, and it also emits radiation due to its own temperature which is a result of heat transfer from the surrounding air and things it’s touching, allowing it to get even cooler than everything around it.\n\nMy understanding is that the paint reflects a wide range of radiation (ultraviolet, visible, and infrared) while also emitting as much as possible. Emitting in this context includes radiation due to its own temperature, even if it’s only room temperature, which is surprisingly a lot (about 450 Watts per square meter). Most objects do not emit this radiation well and have low coefficients of emissivity/absorptivity.\n\nFollowing this logic, objects around you reach room temperature by means of conduction or convection (and radiation if they don’t reflect it), but if they have very high coefficients of emissivity, they will lose some of this heat as it’s being “pumped in” by means of radiation just because they are at some temperature above 0 Kelvin.\n\nAgain, this is my understanding, but while it seems counterintuitive, things are only at room temperature or outdoor temperature because they emit radiation about as well as everything else around them. If you can increase the emissivity coefficient relative to everything else, the overall temperature of the object will drop until a new equilibrium is reached (at the expense of radiating everything else around it or, hopefully, radiating back into space so it doesn’t heat the planet at all).",
"Not to mention the unstudied ecological impact the run off from this paint will have. Not every country had the same resource capacity to keep up with maintenance. I wonder how many people would refuse the colour on there home?",

"Better White Paint sounds like the name of a They Might Be Giants tribute band.",
"Nobody said that somebody said that someone said it’s not",
"Sure, but that's if you only want to try and stop global warming with only paint.\n\nIt would be a very useful tool in hot areas to reduce or even ditch the need for air conditioning.",
"Wow...too ugly for PBS News Hour?",
"Doesn't the heat just dissipate into the atsmosphere around instead? I'm unsure whether this would actually achieve the desired effect on a global scale.",
"No need to paint him in a negative light",
"I'm not saying this isn't a good idea, but it gives me very much \"just put a big ice cube in the ocean\" from Futurama vibes.",
"Not a problem. The idea is to cool the earth back down to where it was. Once the process is started, it is easier to keep up the momentum and paint will play less of a role.",
"I really hope this comes to market.",
"There could be a knock on effect. If your house requires less energy to keep cool, then you don't need to run your AC as much, which translates to less fossil fuels being burnt.",
"Way cool",
"I wonder when this paint will be commercially available?",
"I always get suspicious when an engineer makes a bold claim about a field outside their expertise.",
"But someone said that nobody said that somebody said that someone said it's not.",
"No. That's not how it works. Sunlight is not hot; it's, well, *light*. When sunlight strikes an object and is absorbed, the infrared radiation in it vibrates the molecules in that object, thereby converting the light energy into heat energy. When sunlight strikes an object and is *reflected*, that radiation is never converted into heat, it just stays radiation and is sent back out into space. This is how [global dimming](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_dimming) works.",
"We can even get people globally vaccinated, the logistics of this would be unfeasible.",
"I think that saying that it is \"cooling\" might be misleading. I suspect that the underlaying mechanism is that higher reflectivity means that it's rate of heat absorption is less, therefore leading to a lower temperature than surrounding material that has a higher rate of absorption. \n\n\nThink about it in the extreme of using black paint, we would expect an object that is painted black to be \"hotter\" than the surrounding because it is absorbing more energy; in this case the \"whiter paint\" reflects enough energy to be cooler than the average object around it.",
"Wouldn't a mirror chrome surface reflect even more?",
"Wow, no \"white power\" comments? 😯\n\nGood for you, reddit. 🙂👍",
"You’ve pretty much got it, but it’s even more complicated than that. I think another good way to explain it is that materials can be “white” or “black” not just in terms of visible light, but also ultraviolet, infrared, etc. This paint has the benefits of being “white” to ultraviolet and visible light, but being “black” to infrared light. This means that all the ultraviolet/visible light from the sun is reflected, while the infrared light from the sun *and* the infrared radiation that is innate to all objects at any temperature above 0 Kelvin is absorbed/emitted. \n\nNow it would be ideal if the paint didn’t absorb infrared radiation, but in order to not break Kirchhoff’s law, the absorption and emission coefficients must be equal at any given wavelength. In order to get the extra “cooling” effect of radiating due to temperature (think of a red-hot piece of metal giving off heat just because it’s hot, but instead of being red-hot, it’s just room temperature and still gives off heat), the object must be able to emit radiation really well in the infrared spectrum, and therefore must be able to absorb it, too. \n\nIf the object the paint is painted on conducts or convects heat from its environment, the paint will emit this energy as infrared radiation due to temperature far better than most other materials and therefore be cooler than its environment.",
"If it's not called Vantawhite then that's a waste of an opportunity.",
"I'm sure that the process can be scaled up significantly. But let's take their current rate of production, which is said in the video, of 18 hours to make 50-100mL which covers a 3\"x3\" square.\n\n18 hours to make 3\"x3\" = 288 hours per square foot = 8,029,440,000 hours per square mile = 1,580,996,736,000,000,000 hours for 1% of earth's surface.\n\nConverting 1,580,996,736,000,000,000 hours into more easy to understand units = 180,479,079,452,054.8 years.\n\nFor reference: \n\n* The universe is 13.77 Billion years old. \n\n* After 100 million years we will no longer be able to see galaxies outside of our local cluster due to the expansion of the universe.\n\n* After 1-100 Trillion years stars will cease to form as the supply of gasses needed will be exhausted.",
"X",
"Seems weird to complain about painting a lot of places when we are telling everyone they should be switching to whole new cars.",
"Not even worth doing that math. That involved 1 guy making it in a lab in beakers with very little automation.\n\nThe bigger question than time is almost certainly the cost compared to regular paint and how it compares to the opportunity costs of other green technologies.",
"Exactl. It’s such a benign, not to mention cheap thing to do to mitigate climate change.",

"My uncle was a pastor, and I vaguely remember him giving my parents some sheet of paper that had all sorts of satanic symbols so you would know what the symbols meant. I only remember it because it looked pretty cool, all the different pentagrams, lol. Yea, before video games were the target, it was music. Hell, Elvis was attacked for it too, it's not just the 80s.",
"Xians attempt to blame Satan for the world's problems to distract people [from the real source of evil](https://satanslibrary.org/ExposingChristianity/EXPOSING_CHRISTIANITY_MAIN.html). Xianity is a scam that depends on people's ignorance in order to function.",

"For anyone curious what it was like during the Satanic Panic, we're in one right now.",
"Not the point of the title. Currently people point to video games and try and make the case that it is then which is causing violence amongst youth. Thirty five years ago, people pointed to metal. That's the point of the title. (And while there were video and arcade games back then, it was nowhere near as ubiquitous as now)",
"We all owe Dana Carvey. \n\nIn the 80's the satanic Panic was crazy. Any kid that was slightly out of line and the religious right could always be armed with something to attack them with. Music, D & D, comic books, any sort of youth culture was linked to Devil worship and adults had an excuse to bully. It all could be traced to communism as well.\n\nEvery few months a mimeographed article or a cassette recording would get passed around and even sane parents would be turning on their kids. The parents would placate the crazy aunt or someone on the school board and make their kids burn everything they had.\n\nWhen Dana Carvey did the church lady on SNL it was like all that crap melted away. Most of the parents knew it was just a wedge or excuse back then, but now they were disarmed. Around 87 the mind control was suddenly gone.",
"My parents actually encouraged me to play back in the day. They said it improved my reading comprehension. Also having my pop read the lyrics to creeping death and him realizing its about the 7 plagues of isreal pretty much got them off my back",
"I recall conversations with parents in the late-70s about violent video games leading to violent behavior. And by \"violent video games\" they were referring to Space Invaders - where you shoot pixels at descending glyphs. Cartoons were blamed for violence before that. Television itself. Radio plays before that. Women being allowed to read books was apparently going to lead to the end of society. \n\nPearl clutching parents have always thought what kids enjoy would lead them down the path of violence and ruination. Imagining that this argument began with the current batch of games is to ignore a rich history of fear and shame-mongering fostered by small minded people, regardless of what age you live in.",
"I love the guy that thinks the Eagles of Death Metal are actually a death metal band.",
"The game that started the whole violent video games panic, Mortal Kombat, was released in 1992. The Satanic Panic started in the 1980s",

"Wait? Does Kiss not stand for Keep It Satanic, Sister?",
"The projection is pretty rich considering what was going on in the Catholic Church and evangelical circles at this time.",
"I remember back in the day my sister got a hold of a vhs tape with that mullet mustached doofus from the very end of the video talking about Satan inserting images and working through these bands to put in backwards messages. It was very entertaining, in a \"laugh at how fucking stupid these people are\" way. \nThere was a part where he played something backwards and it sounds like \" yeeeeep wop tis wop shh\" and he says \"now very easily, you can understand that he is saying \"give yourself to Satan, he is my friend\"\" or some other bullshit like that. \nThe lengths that these assclowns reached was impressive. \nIt reminds me now of the anti gay preachers that talk about homosexuality being a sin, and how you just fucking know that those guys can't get sucking on dicks out of their head so they preach about it.",
"Actually? Yea.",
"Holy sh1t. Behold, folks. A real specimen, in his natural habitat, though he appears to have wandered about of his safe space. Fascinating!",
"Dude, are you seriously even in the same conversation? Get the fuck outa here with your bigotry",

If \"Smells Like Teen Spirit\" announced alternative rock's \"Here we are now\" moment like a ton of bricks, then those opening notes of the Shins' \"New Slang\" cooing softly in Portman's headphones declared indie rock's arrival like a handful of feathers. Within months of the film's festival-circuit premiere and art-house run in the late summer of 2004, the Garden State soundtrack was hovering high on the Billboard chart, thanks largely to this relatively new invention called the iTunes Store. Suddenly, the Shins, Iron & Wine, and scene forefather Nick Drake — all featured on the soundtrack — were a mere Nelly's Suit away from being No. 1 in America. It's amazing that the Garden State soundtrack, originally just a mixtape the dude from fucking Scrubs made for himself, was the catalyst for indie rock to officially enter the mainstream, but thanks to it, the door was kicked open for Arcade Fire and Bon Iver to win Grammys, for Vampire Weekend to score a gold record, and for Gotye and fun. to rule radio.

They have to be good at all of the above. \n\nThe Fremen meanwhile train for **none** of those things. They ambush people in the desert, and they fight in the extremely hot and barren desert landscape. They have the most experiance fighting in those extreme conditions.

I'm waiting on McMaster support to get back to me with the weight of a roll of netting to see what type of support structure we'd need.\n\nYou could use steel cable, like they use in building bridges, but that would require building massive support columns along the sides of the pit, or equally massive columns in the water, or both.\n\nThen you'd have to pay for construction and installation.

Obviously would need some sort of superstructure to keep the netting from drooping into the pond, but honestly it wouldn't be anywhere close to a million dollars, as we'd cover about 50 greenhouses a year or so, and that certainly wasn't anywhere close to a million. Ours cost us 200$ or so a roll, although I'm guessing on the sizes, just knew we got a shitton (like, have to use the frontloader to move it) for 150-200$ depending on the quality/shade amount/company, and that was \"premium\" netting as well.",

"> Ground Water Extent\n\n> The extent of ground water refers to the amount available, typically measured in terms of volume or saturated thickness of an aquifer (body of ground water). Concerns related to extent include aquifer depletion and excessive ground water in aquifers.\n\n> Aquifer depletion. Stressors that can deplete aquifers include changes in precipitation and snowmelt patterns; withdrawal of ground water for drinking, irrigation, and other human uses; and impervious paved surfaces that prevent precipitation from recharging ground water. Some deep aquifers may take thousands of years to replenish. Some consequences of aquifer depletion include:\nLower lake levels or—in extreme cases—intermittent or totally dry perennial streams. These effects can harm aquatic and riparian plants and animals that depend on regular surface flows.\nLand subsidence and sinkhole formation in areas of heavy withdrawal. These changes can damage buildings, roads, and other structures and can permanently reduce aquifer recharge capacity by compacting the aquifer medium (soil or rock).\nSalt water intrusion. Changes in ground water flow can lead to saline ground water migrating into aquifers previously occupied by fresh ground water.\n\nhttps://www.epa.gov/report-environment/ground-water#:~:text=Some%20consequences%20of%20aquifer%20depletion,in%20areas%20of%20heavy%20withdrawal.",

"It's insane how the average American tolerates (and even incites) racism.",
"Wow seriously dude, not cool",
"YOU are scum!!! You sit back and let the machine fuck you and your family over and over while these people fight against it!!! You are a COWARD, a FRAUD, and a FAKE PATRIOT, and you should be ASHAMED!!!",

"The dogwhistling on this video lmao",

"I like this kind of, distanced, reality that you live in. What did Louis do to make people steal from his store? Louis is a man. That owns a company. That sells shit. Like every other buisness. You don't have any right to take what is not yours.",
"Dude fucking died in 1892 so it has nothing to do with him, and everything with it being from a corporation. Stealing from a corporation is NOT the same as stealing from people because corporations are NOT people, and if you can’t understand THAT, then capitalism has completely swallowed your peabrain whole",
"https://i.imgur.com/dUHRJoD.jpg",
"You literally just proved my own point, i already knew this and it’s what i was talking about. This was done so that corporations could have more power and influence over the populace. The fact that you just blindly accept this as okay tells me everything i need to know",
"Today I learned that showing criminals stealing, is racist.\n\nToday I learned that stealing from rich companies, is OK. \n\nToday I learned that if you cant afford something, its ok to take it (without paying for it... duuh!!) \n\nToday I learned that im racist. \n\nFor me stealing is stealing but fine! If you are better off than me I guess I will just enter your home and take jewelery, electronics and what-not because I need it...I dont have it...you have it...you can afford it to buy it again...so obvious thing to do is to take it from you. God forbid if you would try to defend your property - that would make you white supremacist obviously. \n\nI like how many of you escape what this video is actually showing but instead hang on a stupid title of this vid on YT. So as long as the title is bad, everything in this vid is a-okey.\n\nObviously this will be downvoted because \"racism\" and \"poor blokes\".",

The reason people are upset is because we are drowning in media depicting property crime by the poor when the main problems we face are the less showy crimes committed by the rich.\n\nIs organized looting wrong? Yes. But where we focus our gaze says a lot about us too.",
"Ye you do that...hang on a title of a video and not video itself. Thats the way to do it. \n\nVideo is racist because it has stupid title. \n\nVideo is racist because it was posted on a YT channel with content that you don't like. Would it be less racist for you if it was posted on any other channel? I can look for it on other channels or news networks if it makes you happy...however does it change what was actually recorded? No it doesnt. So shut up.",

"The title is literally racist and if you can’t grasp that putting “REEEPARATIONS” in the title of a video about black people robbing a store is racist I don’t know what else to tell you. You simply need educated and the mods will do it for you. Less money going to racists the better. You can easily find surveillance footage of people robbing Louis Vuitton that doesn’t give views and revenue to racists.",

It was also weirdly cathartic to explore mental health/anxiety issues I've dealt with my whole life. Recognition from 3 film festivals so far. Premiering at the Another Hole in the Head Film Fest on Dec. 4. \nSynopsis: A wannabe superhero gets a call from an old Tinder date. She says she’s pregnant and that he might be the father. He then fires up his anxiety-powered supercar to find out whether the baby is, in fact, his.",

"While the game does look like fun, why are the opponents so much worse than you? They can barely aim or react.",
"Because I move like the wind. Silent but deadly. 😛",
"When I started I didn't react much either.\nI think it's because your armour can be any color and the way you see opponents & know it's shooty time... Is by a thin colored outline around the player. \n\nEarly on I was legitimately questioning if someone was a real opponent or if they were on my team. It just takes a few games to get used to, and then it's actually quite nice!"

Seems more related to his libertarian/originalist views than anything.\n\nDidn’t endorse anyone in 2016, but noted he liked Sanders despite some disagreements.\n\nI don’t know if he’s worth the demonization you’re casting on him. He’s not Ted Nugent.\n\nIn 2018, he said this in regards to politics:\n>\tGuthrie contacted publication Urban Milwaukee to clarify his political stance. He stated \"I am not a Republican,\" and expressed deep disagreement with the Trump administration's views, especially the policies on immigration and treatment of detained immigrants by ICE. Guthrie further clarified, \"I left the party years ago and do not identify myself with either party these days. I strongly urge my fellow Americans to stop the current trend of guilt by association, and look beyond the party names and affiliations, and work for candidates whose policies are more closely aligned with their own, whatever they may be. ...

"All true in that \"cherry pick context and following events and statements to increase outrage\" kind of way\n\nFor instance, changing party because he said there were enough good people in the Democratic party and the Republicans needed some\n\nOr supporting Ron Paul purely for antiwar, then reversing course after Republicans became what they are now",

Our upstairs was literally open to outside so it was that cold inside, our bathroom pipes were frozen, etc. We contacted the news to do a segment (which worked and made the contractors actually finish closing and insulating the units), but in the meantime, my dad, brother, and I all slept in the basement where it was tolerable.\n\nWhen I was introduced on the news segment, I was given the caption of:\n\nBEARKIN1\n\nLIVING IN UNFINISHED BASEMENT\n\nEdit: [Proof](https://i.imgur.com/g2kuYM1.jpg)\n\nIf enough people ask for the video, I'll post it",

"I already knew before I worked there though, because it says in 2 spots on the page that it's sold by a third party, says on the checkout page that it's sold by a third party, when you choose the shipping it gives you an obvious third party shipping charge, specifically separates the item from all items sold by Walmart directly, and gives you a big yellow warning box when you go to finalize the checkout saying \"THIS IS SOLD BY A THIRD PARTY VENDOR YOU CANNOT RETURN THIS ITEM TO WALMART AND ARE SUBJECT TO THE THIRD PARTY RETURN POLICY\".\n\nThere is literally no way to miss it unless you actively choose to ignore every line of text on the page.",

Not an easy fix my ass...",

"Just some backstory. \nSo, I work at one company of many in the [Hunts Point Market ](https://huntspointproducemkt.com) in the South Bronx, NY. And I have a produce route myself. \nI shot this video real fast while walking between my truck and the store where I purchase a lot of my stuff. \nThis is relatively slow compared to the previous day (Sunday night for Monday of thanksgiving week) where we can do almost double this amount of volume. This video was shot at about 1 am on a Tuesday morning before thanksgiving. \nIf you live around NYC, there is a good chance that some of your produce on your table has come through this market. The trucks from here go as far north as Albany, NY, and Boston, MA daily and as far south as Maryland and west as Harrisburg Pennsylvania on the regular. \nI Think it’s the largest wholesale Produce market in the world.",

"I haven't watched this scene in many years, and a lot jumps out at me now.\n\n1. This is a remarkably challenging scene to film. You've got a set of child actors using live flame. Arrows. I think they used an air ramp to throw a double for Sarah Miller into a lake. Actors falling off the bench, pie launchers. It's pretty wild that they managed to shoot this.\n2. Their eye for satirizing white Connecticut culture and their recognition of Native genocide is pretty advanced for the '90s.\n3. Addams Family is every bit as dark as I remember. Wednesday does not fuck around. They're really set to murder these these m'fers. I don't think you could make this today, due to the routine nature of mass casualty events.\n\nAlso, the title has a typo. Addams has two \"D\"s.",

They weren't. People were very well aware of the controversy around Thanksgiving, just like they are today. They just didn't care, just like they don't today.\n\nMark Twain in his autobiography (p. 1924, but written way before):\n\n>Thanksgiving Day, a function which originated in New England two or three centuries ago when those people recognized that they really had something to be thankful for—annually, not oftener—if they had succeded in exterminating their neighbors, the Indians, during the previous twelve months, instead of getting exterminated by their neighbors, the Indians. Thanksgiving Day became a habit, for the reason that in the course of time, as the years drifted on, it was perceeived that the exterminating had ceased to be mutual and was all on the white man's side, consequently on the Lord's side; hence it was proper to thank the Lord for it and extend the usual compliments.\n\nThe fourth Thursday of November has also been unofficially recognized as the National Day of Mourning since 1970 by several native groups.\n\nThe People's History of The United States (Howard Zinn) had been out for at least 10 years and was already required reading in a lot of colleges.\n\nPeople always make similar claims about how \"The Simpsons predicted it! The Simpsons knew!\", but in reality The Simpsons were documenting the conditions of their time. It's America that hasn't changed since then, no matter how much we want to pat ourselves on the back. We're not more aware of our problems, we've just refused to fix them or change anything in the last 30 years.",

"I think for 2. it's not so much that it's advanced.... it's that either more people spread it now or more people care? Or maybe the care is much more easily seen vs when we didn't have social media.

Although if you want to talk about the morality of it, as much people don't like to hear it, I don't think being attracted to a 13 year old is even immoral in and of itself in the first place. This depends on your definition of morality but personally I can't see a world where something that doesn't cause some form of harm to someone else can be immoral. It would either be moral or morally neutral, the majority of things falling under the latter.",

"> and their recognition of Native genocide is pretty advanced for the '90s.\n\nNot really, the 90s was when the last Politically Correct culture movement was popular (the term coined at the time), before it faded away again in early 2000s. During that time a lot of social issues were brought to the forefront including past injustice to Native Americans. \n\nThey even made a satire movie about the 90s culture being so PC, called PCU (Politically Correct University) https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110759/\n\nBefore that the last big social awareness movement was in the 60-70s and people talked about native american genocide then too (example, in earl 70s Marlon Brando declined an Oscar and instead had a native american woman to speak about their plight. https://www.newsweek.com/marlon-brando-boycotted-oscars-native-americans-418545\n\nThis stuff goes in waves. If you follow South Park the last few years they had PC principle character came onto the show (reflecting what's going on in current society again) so in many way we are in another PC wave, but it has a newer branding now... \"social awareness\" \"woke\" whatever the label is it's the same overall concept of being empathetic of other peoples burdens in society and wanting to make things better for them (past and present and future). \n\nIt seems like every 2-3 decades this happens, basically each major generation jump. It's when people are trying not to be anything like their parents, until they get 2-3 decades older and age and work and personal life stress sets in and most of them lose their activism and sense of social justice. Maybe it's better that activism is for the young anyway, since it requires energy and a less jaded perspective.\n\nWith each of these waves some things change for better, then everyone forgets and and most of it goes away. Then everyone remembers again a couple decades later and some things change and then everyone forgets and it goes away again. The expression of \"those who don't study history are doomed to repeat it\" harkens true today. As does the joke version of the follow up \"those who don't study history are doomed to repeat it, but no one listens to people who study history\".",

"I couldn’t stop thinking about how sometime before this, she sat in a salon chair for four hours to get her hair braided.",
"Discovery writers just make up reasons as to why Burnam is the best at whatever task they want her to do and have her shake it off if it goes wrong.\n\nThey do this a lot. \n\nOlder trek would've had one of the bridge crew do the task, almost getting them killed and resulting in them having to stay in sick-bay for a bit.",
"New Trek sucks and I'm sick of it.",
"That's wouldn't stop your lungs from rupturing",
"I mean.. you can actually stay conscious in space for upwards of 15 seconds and survive for 1.5 minutes... This is more realistic than the people who immediately freeze or expand, like in Total Recall.",
"New trek is lazy, pandering, trash.",
"So say we all.",
"I really enjoyed the [moonwalk scene](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTPw2kp3OiI) in For All Mankind.",
"oh shit it's harley deen",
"You die because of you blood boiling/evaporating due to lack of pressure faster than the 1-2 asphyxiation time. It think your blood will rupture your veins before you freeze or lose air.",
"Nah, the whole scene was slowed down...\n\nYou can survive up to around ~15 seconds or so without a space suit, she was wearing a suit, and was only her helmet that needed to deploy - if it did so within ~15 seconds she would be fine!\n\nStop picking at tiny details, and just enjoy the show for what it is!",
"There are whole story lines on why genetically modifying humans is illegal. You should look up the story’s of Khan and Bashir.",
"Anyone else hearing a light Star Wars theme/rip off starting at the 45 second mark?",
"The scene looks dumb, but this video is pretty dumb too. You can absolutely survive for a few seconds in the vacuum of space - even the old Trek clips used in the video say so. And the clips they keep replaying from Discovery show exactly that. A person surviving in space for a few seconds. They even had a weird sci-fi face mask for part of it.",
"This was just making fun of star wars doing the same thing though right? Like the scene is 1:1 the same thing that happens in that scene, almost shot-for-shot, and the [music is clearly a callback to Leia's theme](https://youtu.be/UtkuZbcZORE) and the Force theme.",
"Big time. Note for note. Thought the exact same thing.",
"They absolutely do not modify humans.\n\nThat's like #2 in the whole star trek universe.\n\n\\#1 do not violate the prime directive\n\n\\#2 do not genetically modify humans\n\n\\#3 If you somehow end up being transported back in time, you'll somehow appear back on earth at some point in history every.time.",
"Everyone talking about the depressurization, and nobody mentions the astronomically low probability of her jumping out of the craft with the perfect trajectory to enter that opening? It's like throwing a dart and hitting a bullseye while skydiving.",
"The borg would have no problem in space. All hail the hive mind.",
"Your lungs wouldn’t be at any risk of rupturing unless you were dumb enough to try to hold your breath.",
"That's some thumbnail. Was this video targeted at children? Why the big eyes?",
"it looks like Michael did in this scene. It's hot garbage",
"I thought duct tape could do anything",
"I like Discovery, especially the last season, but OP is right about Burnham. Too much of a screen hog and the rest of the cast is weaker as a result. Also that trill kid is just a new fuckin Wesley Crusher.",
"That's because it's Princess Liea's theme. Whoever posted the video added that music to reference this scene from The Last Jedi: https://youtu.be/6WzSdfKS1w4?t=71",
"CRAP!",
"Space is horrific, and will kill you in a damn hurry. But it is not instant. If you take appropriate actions first - you can survive a few seconds. \n\nFor All Mankind and The Expanse are two shows that show the effects of vacuum on a person pretty accurately. Some of the walks were more ‘successful’ than others, but all resulted in horrific injuries.\n\nBut, ultimately, Star Trek is space fantasy - they can do whatever they want at this point. Very *soft* science fiction.",
"Yes, and it doesn't even pander to the people who watch it!",
"That was one of the only scenes in a tv show I can think of that legitimately made me cry. An entire season of growth and character development, all for that glorious finale. >!I think my wife actually cried out when it showed they didn’t make it.!<",
"Would you kindly blur out that spoiler at the end? Thanks!",
"It's like they watched the expanse and were like \"I want that\"",
"Done!",
"Lower Decks is Old Trek, and knows it.\n\n.\n\nMariner: So, was the Titan as awesome as everybody says?\n\nBoimler: Eh, it was a bunch of complex characters thrown into heavily serialized battles which always ended in mindblowing twists and made me question the basic tenets of my reality. But who cares about that? Tell me more about this puppet ray! That's the kind of stuff I live for.",
"It's not Star Trek anymore. It hasn't BEEN Star Trek since Enterprise wrapped up 3 seasons too soon. The movies were a horrendous waste of great casting (in my opinion, obviously), and Discovery is just a mediocre sci-fi series that only pays the sketchiest homage to what Star Trek has always been. Burnham will never be one of 'The Captains', not ever. Abrams is a fucking oblivious moron and how anyone thought he was worth hiring after the Lost debacle is beyond me.",
"*THIS* IS CETI ALPHA 5!",
"Like the only scene I remember from Titan A.E. was the one where they do this. One of them makes a point to the other to exhale before the glass breaks (cause you're not holding your breath in space and you'll hurt yourself trying) and uses a fire extinguisher for thrust. They both pass out by the time they bash into the back wall of the other ship's entrance and the guy that tried to hold his breath ends up recovering in medical for it. Neither of them are in any shape to get up as soon as they land.\n\nIt seems about as accurate as this can be in that exposure alone is survivable, but staying awake longer than a few seconds to get *out* of it is a tall order. Both shows basically eject them directly towards the only safe direction they can land in.",
"That's not what it's criticizing. It's criticizing the notion that you can go unconscious due to loss of pressure but then regain consciousness seconds later and be totally fine with no mental or physical health effects.",
"lol okay that makes sense. Didn't know it was added",
"People are really butthurt about Discovery in particular. There are any number of ridiculous scenes that demand you suspend your disbelief in all of the previous Trek series.\n\nThough it would be pretty gross to see those Burnham scenes if they were closer to reality. In tests done on dogs in the 60s,the dogs survived longer than 90 seconds in near vacuum. But they inflated like bagpipes and simultaneously projectile vomited and defecated. Poor dogs...",
"You wouldn't be \"fine.\" That's what the clip is pointing out. You'd still get nasty radiation burns and a lot of cellular damage from the 15 seconds in which there is no pressure keeping your cells in their ideal size and shape. And you aren't gonna just regain consciousness after a catastrophic collision and atmosphere breach on your ship and brush it off with an \"I'm fine\" be doing some Superman acrobatics.",
"Pretty advanced tech for a show that takes place before the 1960s Star Trek",
"Wasn't Harry Kim left in space for about 4 minutes then resurrected in Voyager? I would say Star Trek plays it fast and loose with space for a while.",
"She might have gone unconscious due to the impact?",
"If the expanse can do it, so can star trek. It even makes more sense in star trek, on account of the handwavium technology that is excluded from the expanse.",
"Thanks!",
"Enterprise already did this with Captain Archer. It was in that two-parter with the genetic supermen.\n\nHe did survive being in space without a suit, but only for a few seconds. Mind you, I believe he had to be rushed to sick bay.",
"Star Trek Discovery is hot dog shit. Truely awful. If you're bored see how long it takes you to get banned on r/startrek for saying how bad it is. The mods run it stricter than a Cardassian labor camp",
"You can, if it's only a few seconds.",
"Woah l wonder if those crazy suicidal Asian kids have tried this?",
"The fuck are you talking about",
"I'm trying to like discovery... but I honestly don't give a fuuuuuck about any of the characters, the story, or anything. It's just so boring and uncompelling. Even the visuals, which by all accounts are pretty flashy, feel pointless. Like are they in Tron? What the hell is happening? \nShe wasn't knocked unconscious from what I can tell, the canopy of her ship was shattered, then there was a slow motion shot which could have been a second in real time, then her magic spacesuit happened. I think it's more an issue of what happens to you when you are fastened inside and pressurized air pocket that suddenly expands, and how do you magically end up being pointed in the right direction after being thrown around.",
"Didn't think I'd like Lower Decks, but goddamn that show had me laughing hard.",
"God what had happened to Star Trek? This is just so not it.",
"May the force be with you",
"You're telling me a space suit can block radiation so strong that it would give you radiation burns after 15 seconds of exposure without the suit? That's a *shit-ton* of radiation.",
"Lower Decks is the currently running Trek. Discovery is just a crappy YouTube fan show. No one can make me think otherwise.",
"It infuriates me. They have something that a lot of people want, and they change it in the hope that more people might want it, but by changing it they ruin it for the people who wanted it in the first place. \n\nAnd it happens with everything now. TV shows, movies, books, clothes, food, cars, electronics, software, tools, toiletries, furnishings, you name it.",
"Discovery is a joke.",
"Discovery is such garbage. ‘Oh! We can just teleport the whole ship anywhere we want!’ So wtf happened to that tech a century later when Picard was slow boating it around the quadrant?\n\nFucking hate that show more than I hated Scott Bakula as a starfleet captain.",
"More people need to talk about this show! One of my favorites from the past year.",
">!So, they did not survive? Fuk it looked like they made it.!<",
"the total recall one is hilarious and so ignorant.",
"Did she say she’s logged more TV hours on board than anyone else?",
"Not to mention that’s not at all how physics would work in space.",
"You do have some time you can survive in a vacuum, something like 30 seconds or so.\n\nThese are highly trained people, years of training before they even become ensigns.",
"Do people realize how short a few seconds is?",
"Pretty sure that also had long lasting effects on those dogs",
"It’s because they think all the old Trek stuff is boring so they need to shove this shit into it to try and make it ENTERTAINING!",
"She should do a sex scene in space.",
"LMFAO",
"Haven't you heard? She's just better than everyone else. Even when compared vulcans who are mentally and physically superior to humans. Not because she earned it, just because.",
"They thought everything from the OG series to TNG was boring so they shove a bunch of action sequences into this shit because they think it makes it more entertaining which it doesn’t.",
"LMAO",
"Lazy writing and wanting to have their new characters be amazing is the reason. The new writers are forgetting having challenges is what makes it interesting. Them being able to do almost anything because of plot armor is not a good story.",
"Her space suit wasn't sealed. If it was sealed, she wouldn't have any pressure or radiation concerns and wouldn't lose consciousness in seconds.",
"She's a blatant Mary Sue.",
"The youth in Asia that keep talking about killing themselves.",
"What universe shattering force are Burnham and Co. takin on this season?!\n\nI see the dutch angles are back too. Very cool!",
"This is nostalgia bait for TLJ... I think art is dead.",
"> Stop picking at tiny details, and just enjoy the show for what it is!\n\nNostalgia baiting garbage that doesn't even pay service to its predecessors?",
"Watched the TNG episode Disaster just last night. In one scene, two members of the crew have to put out a fire by opening the cargo bay and being exposed to the vacuum of space. The doctor explicitly explains what they should expect to experience and how to survive it.\n\nGood stuff.\n\nEdit: oh yep, it's used as a clip in the video. Nice.",
"What about Picard?",
"Thx",
"Well first off you can tell she's holding her breath, so her lungs are bruised if not ruptured. Might have the same problem with some ribs. Also a bloody nose, temporary to permanent blindness, hemorraghing all over her body, deafness, swelling of all exposed tissues and cold boiling of the moisture in her nose, just from pressure. \n \nAlso looks like there's a sun nearby so she's zapped with solar and cosmic radiation, and intense ultraviolet and infrared light, cooking her on low. I believe suns also emit microwave, so she might be cooking internally too. \n \nAlso we can't overlook the fact that all this occurs in the wake of a vehicular impact. She may have spinal damage, fractures, bruising, more traditional hemorrhaging, dislocations, sprains, cuts from broken vehicle fragments, internal organ damage, and all the other goodies a rapid change in momentum in a vehicle gets you.",
"And she's a better fighter than a Klingon warrior, even in space, when she's in an unarmed Space walk suit and he's in full armor and have a bat'leth.",
"Should it be Jesus Burnham or Michael Christ?",
"Would this make her a Mary Sue?",
"That's not how any of it works.",
"Not in the cases I'm talking about. The writers just need an excuse to keep the focus on her, so they explain her skills with throwaway lines.",
"ITT: People that say they hate Discovery but still clicked on this.",
"They jumped to the future at the end of the 2nd season. Then the plot really turned into a mess. >!All the dilithium in the galaxy was mysteriously destroyed in “the burn” and they reveal that it was caused by feelings.!<",
"Discovery gets such vitriol on reddit because there is strangely a racist and misogynistic group who claim to like Star Trek.\n\nedit: Here they come!",
"Star Trek was basically a scifi drama but this is trying to be Marvel action heroes or something lol",
"In the 90s we still believed humanity could be better in the future. Now we know we're fucked.",
"That channel is so salty about Discovery and like yeah, I don't like it either, but I stopped watching it. Discovery fucking sucks so don't watch it, stop bitching about it constantly. Just watch the old series over and over again like I do.\n\nThere was a period when there was no new Trek and only the old series, just pretend it's like that again.",
"Nah I’m good",
"Ugh. It was a tough slog through the first season. I gave up when they ended up stranded in the future. What a mess of a show.",
"It starts off just feeling like parody, but it really turns into a proper TNG era Trek show by the end of the first season.",
"funny, i remember phisics work the same anywhere ... no air pressure, blood boils at normal body temp. But ok, if You say so :)",
"The series is awful more about messaging than good stories and ideas",
"The expanse had a pretty good/realistic depiction of unprotected spacewalking. You don't stay conscious for long but you go blind pretty quick as your eyes deform.\n\nBut you don't immediately freeze or explode or die. As long as you exhale beforehand and dont stay out for long, you have a shot at surviving.",
"I'm also suspicious of Dukat's portion mentioning explosive decompression - is going from 1 ATM to 0 ATM \"explosive\"...?",
"If it's very fast, yes. \"Explosive\" isn't a very scientific term. A balloon \"explodes\" when popped. If the air getting sucked out was enough force to do structural damage, or even just to move objects around, that might be enough to call it \"explosive\".",
"Interesting stuff here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncontrolled_decompression#Myths\n\nAnd I've read about this one before in the past (NSFL-territory): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byford_Dolphin#Diving_bell_accident",
"Bro, the show is bad. Quit trying to dismiss it's critics, cause the show is hot garbage",
"Thanks op. you shared with us your lack of knowledge. That was a kind gesture. I hope you have a nice day.",
"A difference of 1 atmosphere absolutely will not cause the body to explode, that's correct. I must have misunderstood what you meant. \"Explosive\" decompression doesn't refer to the human body exploding, though, just so you know.",
"Wishing everyone a wonderful day 😊",
"The Expanse is great at this. The episode where they are heading into a fight so they all put on spacesuits and then depressurize the entire ship so they won't have explosive decompression... I knew it was good.",
"Discovery doesn't have the same feel. I still enjoy the action. But it's definitely not the same. \n\nI've had this same problem with superhero movies screwing up so many details. But it's all justified with the multiverse. A sort of ex machina effect. (Sorry im not sure about the correct term). Just think of it as a parallel reality. It doesn't have to follow any of the \"rules\" then.",
"> God what had happened to Star Trek? This is just so not it.\n\nGene roddenberry died. Everything after him has been a crude impersonation, and yes I'm including 'The Orville'.",
"I can't remember if this was why but at some point she had to have her DNA repair because of radiation damage.\n\nI thought that was pretty cool.",
"Well, that fucked me right the hell up.",
"Technology from the 32nd century doesn't explain her kicking out of her chair and getting enough momentum to go skydiving in space.",
"We've had cases of people exposed to complete vacuum and this is not what happened.\n\nYour lungs may be damaged if you're holding onto air but your veins will for the most part stay intact. You may still die from an embolism and you'll probably at least experience bruising.",
"EV",
"The Orville at least attempts to live up to his vision. STD just craps all over it.",
"They want it to be Star Wars. They want it to be an Action Series. They don't want it to be a cerebral drama. And we probably won't see that kind of Star Trek again for a long, long time.",
"I wonder when the mods were usurped by CBS overlords? Must be a good income.",
"They hyped up Picard as a 'return to form'. Got the same 'Action Flick' garbage, just with an awkward looking and elderly returning cast.",
"> Stop picking at tiny details, and just enjoy the show for what it is!\n\nA brainless CGI filled action series that stamps the name 'Star Trek' on the tin despite it having nothing in common with the series?",
"Enjoy 🤣🤣🤣",
"Physics*\n\nYour blood and the pressure of it within your veins are part of your own body’s internal pressure, and so it would not begin boiling inside your body. That is a common myth, just like the instant-freezing trope. \n\nSource: https://youtu.be/pm6df_SExVw",
"The expanse did a scene exactly like this, but waaaay better.",
"I… yeah, I mentioned the expanse. 0.o",
"I think there were thrusters on her iron man nano tech armor that's in Star Trek for some reason... but only sometimes. Other times there is no suit like that. Whatever is the easiest way to get the fucking script done and out the door with the minimal amount of thought possible. \n\nContinuity, logic? What are you? A fucking nerd?",
"I just got tired of all the \"The Universe is going to end if we don't do the thing!\"\n\nGet me to care about the characters before you give me a Universe ending plot line.",
"You must be real fun at Star Trek parties.",
"Probably more fun than the parties themselves.",
"I like it when Red Letter Media drops a season review of Discovery or Picard and the mods start banning anyone and everyone who dares post it. The Dominion has no tolerance for dissent!",
"For fun i like to freedive, but that's normally on full lungs. On *empty* lungs, while swimming around, in an otherwise non-hostile environment, my time underwater is only like 30 seconds. Remove the water and gravity, put a full blast oven on one side and liquid nitrogen on the other and actively try to suck the gasses from my tissues... instant panic and death.",
"You can. But to be able to react with perfect accuracy and timing in the midst of an explosive decompression like in the bee? The mask comes in automatically and that part is fine; Makes sense that 300ish years in the future we'd have some tools for that. Cool. But she has almost no disorientation, acts immediately, and can propel herself with perfect accuracy to safety. And remember there's hundreds of pounds of atmosphere, shattered glass, metal, all that rushing about. None of that impacts her. \n\nAnd it shows her being calm, cool, and perfectly capable. As she is with everything she does from breathing to beating the crap out of massive klingons in 1v1 melee. Burnham is borderline perfect, other than the little \"I don't get along with authority\" shtick that hardly ever actually comes up.",
"Dude, I'm happy there's more female leads and POC in Star Trek. TOS and even TNG to some extent was \"white guys do cool shit while everyone else kinda hangs around\". \n\nDoesn't make Discovery good. They mangled everything we knew about Klingons in S1, played fast and loose with the timeline repeatedly, turned Burnham into some kinda space jesus....and let's not talk about the super awesome flippy space drive that magically all rules of warp travel obsolete, or how damn near everything is a section 31 black site. How they retconned and re-retconned Pike, or the fact that the empress of the entire mirror universe decides she's gonna pretend to be a starship captain and somehow her universe is just fine without her....\n\nLike TNG had entire bad seasons. DS9 had a lot of bad moments, voyager was half-crap, and TOS is an overly romanticized mess. But I'd take any of them over the edgy fanfic that is Discovery.",
"Hard disagree. As much as I love Gene's vision, it hampered the franchise more than it helped.\n\nLet's not forget that Stewart, arguably the best actor in the captain's chair, wouldn't have had a role if Gene was left to do whatever he wanted. Because Stewart was *bald*, sin of sins! The Borg never would have been allowed to remain. One of Gene's rules was you were never allowed to have a threat remain beyond that episode. \n\nI agree that the darker and more serious tones after Gene's death sometimes went too far, but some of the best moments in the entire franchise were late TNG and all through DS9, both of which were after he died.",
"Picard had moments. The problem was 2 minutes of good storytelling and acting slapped into an hour of crap is...well...crap.\n\nI did love them forever for showing us what earth cities were like in the Federation, though. It was nice to see a little of this so called utopia.",
"I only watched season 1. I clicked on that spoiler. What the actual high holy fuck did I just read.",

"You lose heat **slowly** due to radiation. It does not freeze you in seconds, or even minutes. Only your corpse would freeze.",
"Exactly my point.",
"Wow that hasn't been remotely true in over a year.",
"Maybe not, depending on how well you can hold your breath. A sissy might exhale and suffocate before the gasses in their blood come out of solution and they suffocate that way. Also cosmic radiation doesn't do shit *on earth* because we have the ozone layer to protect us. It also protects us from the pure infrared and ultraviolet light of the sun, and not even that. You can get a sunburn on earth in a short time. The ship in the background is lit at a near equivalent brightness to earth, so she's exposed to that level of UV and IR but without the ozone and atmosphere to buffer. Microwaves don't do anthing *on earth*, because of local atmosphere. In space they aren't dissipated because there's *nothing to dissipate them*. \nEverything you know about these forces is mostly in the context of how they behave on this planet. Everything that's common on this planet works differently in space, from speed to liquid to heat. For example, some liquids freeze, others instantly boil, and you can absorb heat infinitely but never cool down naturally.",
"The microwave in your house is specifically tuned to the frequency of water, whereas the microwaves in space are all over the spectrum. They wouldn't heat you up at even close to the same rate. The IR would be a problem if you were sufficiently close to a star but they are easily blocked by clothing or anything substantial. The UV would burn you long after you died in space or would give you cancer. Cosmic rays would would give you cancer. These aren't Chernobyl levels of gamma rays. \n\nI think hypoxia would be the cause of death. You would have a good 15-45 seconds before you passed out.",
"Because of plot armor time travelling magic?....",
"You realize Discovery is not the first Trek to have time travel \"magic\" right?",
"Fuck this show and everyone involved with it.",

If they don't work with space agencies and astronauts to make improvements then I agree. It is simply NOTHING but a bullshit marketing ploy.",

If someone other then this man actually gave a shit Ray would have a belt, they would have the simple things these people wanted. A microwave cloths. So don't judge unless you are helping them like he has.

The reality is he's helped raise them money through viewers and they are looking to buy land near them to move to a bigger property. If that doesn't happen he's suggested a trailer to help them. But the decision is theirs. \n\nNo one else would be helping them in any way if he didn't decide to upload a video. \n\nLet them suffer in silence?",
"I'm worried about Ray's knee. I wish they had some sort of home care helper ~ that should have been the first step but hopefully Mark does something. He's certainly in a position to... however, the family may have also expressed they don't want a caretaker. Who knows. Just hope Ray feels better.",

"My family flipped their shit when my mom made fresh cranberry sauce and served that instead of the canned ocean spray.",
"This is really solid advise.",
"Fucked up Mac and cheese. That is some BS. Went and did some shit on her own. Nah\n\nEdit: dats what the video said. I am merely transcribing some.of the monolog",
"She only added cream cheese? I mean a little bit is fine, but to only use cream cheese? Yikes. I would make her clean the place, too.",
"I always thought I hated cranberry saucd but fresh cranberry sauce is delicious and the canned stuff is almost completely inedible",
"Lol. My wife ONLY experiments with her dishes. Never follows the recipe 100%. Has to do her own thing. Can't help herself.\n\nEdit: why the downvotes? I love the break from tradition. We love doing our own thing, creating our own traditions, being spontaneous. Those who don't approve are boring.",
"what an annoying bitch, glad that's not my mom",
"Wanda Sykes makes a good point",
"Mom had her heart set on that mac n' cheese and you let her down. \n\nHappy Thanksgiving, lol.",
"This is why I always go straight to the classics on holidays. The pressure of smoking a turkey for the first time in your life and trying to time it with all the other food is just way too much. I actually have mock thanksgiving with friends or my girlfriend leading up to today just to hammer out all the details before hand.",
"I was placed in charge of this year’s turkey and I decided to spatchcock the bird to cook it better and I’m terrified. If it doesn’t turn out well I’ll be crucified.",
"This really wraps up a lot of feelings on the subject of cranberry sauce.\n\nhttps://youtu.be/scVpoA6HkOk",
"Glad you aren't around to fuck up our Mac and Cheese.",
"At first I thought it was scripted but it definitely isnt",
"\"nice recipe\" and \"from instagram\" are wholly incompatible. Maybe you did a typo or I misread haha.",
"You can do it!",
"This reminds me of one time my dad and I were cooking thanksgiving. We're like 4 hours into cooking and he's like, \"do you think I should add a little hot sauce to the gravy?\" I was like \"hell yes\" and he takes the hottest stuff we have and tosses a few drops in there. Needless to say we instantly ruined 4 liters of gravy. \n\nWe had frozen stock so we quickly made new gravy and served the hot stuff to the side. No chance we're going to ruin peoples thanksgiving meal by experimenting after that one.",
"nah, fuck her\n\nShe sounds so ungrateful that someone else decided to cook something for her. Fuck this bitch and her ungrateful ass.\n\nIf you didn't like it you at least try it and say \"nah not for me\" and explain yourself like a fucking adult. Not throw a tantrum like this ungrateful twat in the video.\n\nGo ahead downvote, doesn't change that I am right.\n\nEDIT: To clarify real quick I agree with the point, but I disagree with the childish temper tantrum. This is like some kid complaining that Mom got \"great Value\" instead of \"Tyson\" chicken nuggets.",
"This guy fucks with the Thanksgiving.",
"I love this video! It captures pretty much exactly when my wife and I had our first thanksgiving, and I thought I'd be cool and make cranberry sauce.",
"I did that last year and everyone said it was hands down the best turkey they ever had. Cooks perfectly and quickly. You'll do great.",
"You misread",
"We experimented this Thanksgiving...\n\nPumpkin cheesecake. \n\n..... IT WAS AMAZING!",
"I dunno man he experimented with the Mac n cheese on Thanksgiving of all days. Fucked the whole damn thing up. Mmhmm",
"Thanks for the encouragement haha it came out great! People were raving. Definitely the way I’m cooking turkey from now on.",
"I think my cousin finally pulled the master move this year over our dressing. I love my Aunt but she does not season her dishes. So it's a bland dressing without parsley, rosemary, sage and thyme. So my cousin just finally made some stove top dressing and it got ate more than the original dressing. I may have to call them later and see if they are alright.",
"That is amazing.",
"Spatchcocking (which for those unaware, means removing the spine so you can open the turkey up and lay it out flat) actually makes it much easier to cook. You're unlikely to end up with uncooked parts. I'd say the biggest things to worry about would be overcooking it as it should cook faster than normal.",
"I tweak and bring out new recipes all the time. Sorry, I don't want dated \"traditional\" stuff because guess what mine is better. As if some 1950s version can compete. It's good to be the host.",
"Who the fuck makes mac n cheese for Thanksgiving?",
"The more she talked the angrier she became 😂 they really wanted mac \\&amp; cheez 😆藍",
"southern people\n\nWhere I am from its common to have tamales on Thanksgiving/Christmas.",
"Nah fuck you",
"Millions of people",
"Did that with my chicken today and it was one of the juiciest ones I’ve ever had. Cooked evenly and I completely smothered every inch of it with compound butter.\n\nEvery 20 min I’d use a baster with a needle to re insert any of the drippings directly back into the chicken meat. So. Damn. Good.",
"Have you also never heard about Murica's sweet potatoes and marshmallows? That shit is fucked up.",
"It was edited it after, I can see that.",
"People for me",
"You’re almost completely right. Just switch that canned is goodness and fresh is trash.",
"Finally, a comment in the spirit of Thanksgiving.",
"I like quality food what can I say. Don't live in some flyover state eating shit assembled from can or whatever.",
"She's playing it up, but the underlying truth is there.",
"nah man you def have never been yelled at like someone like that.\n\nThe two \"you don't experiment at Thanksgiving\" have completely different cadences(one slightly joking then getting more serious) and you can hear someone in the back trying to defend themself and she is talking over them.",
"This was all in love. You just don’t understand auntie’s like that, who pop off when she has a drink in her hand. It takes an old bitch like this to keep traditions and good recipes intact. Reminds me of my family matriarch. RIP Great-Grandma ❤️",
"Black people.",
"Exactly nothing pisses me off more than that. I have been in that exact situation. This moron should be fucking thankful that she has food and family together in the first place.",
"Nah she just a bitch who needs to learn when to act like a fucking adult. I can tell you from growing up with people like that. Nothing makes you doubt yourself more than some screaming old bag like that.",
"What do you mean?",
"I just bought a few turkey beasts and smoked them. Was super simple. Just put a dry rub on it and let it smoke for w few hours. Tasted a whole lot better than traditional oven too. It's so hard to screw it up too as long as you got a thermometer.",
"I mean if we’re being real, she cooked everything else, it blows my mind that people honestly get on Reddit and the smallest things set them off. Imagine your mom cooking an entire meal and telling you to clean and you go off on her lol. \n\nMy mom, cooked, worked , cleaned and looking back on it , I would’ve volunteered to do all three lol.",
"I just imagined you with a pan full of shitty Mac and cheese, yelling at your family about how they should be grateful you made something.",
"You’re not right…you just think you’re right.",
"I literally just sent a text asking my friend who I’m having Thanksgiving with if the mac n cheese is ready.",
"My wife and I did a massive spread of homemade Chinese food today for Thanksgiving. We fed three families. It was a hit. We got burnt out on turkey last year and had made up our mind to do something non traditional this time. I don't want to do Chinese food again though, it was so labor intensive.",
"So, it's just some wet bread? Ewwww\n\nI don't get why people just refuse to season stuff. The only thing I can think of is that they can't tell how much is too much and have screwed up too many dishes so they just don't touch salt and pepper.\n\nBut if they're cooking, I'm keeping my mouth shut unless I know they're cool with comments.",
"Well my family and I can't live in good intentions, Marge!",
"I loved the gradual change to Wanda Sykes in her voice.",
"Fuck this mother! Her child tried something new and innovative and, while it likely might not have turned out the way they wanted, at least they tried to keep things fresh and grow their culinary skills.\n\nThis is fucking abuse.",
"Who the fuck thinks mac and cheese is Thanksgiving food? Jesus, do your mashed potatoes come from a box, too?",
"Once I started making cranberry sauce I was both willing to eat it and unwilling to eat it. Delicious, but dear lord no jam should need that much sugar to get there.",
"They definitely don't understand. Just another sad low life who spends most of their time on reddit looking for something to complain about. I honestly pity them and those around them.",
"I’m sorry no one in your life knows how to make fresh cranberry sauce.",
"Who’d want to deal with the ungrateful bitching?",
"You literally just copied one of the top comments from YT, word for word here. Why?",
"Lol I massively experimented this Thanksgiving. Hopefully this is the last one I’m voluntold to host!",
"I know. This is the kind of woman that would offer the whole neighborhood a plate at thanksgiving, because it’s the right thing to to. Most people won’t understand.",
"Yeah because it's all about how much food I want to eat and not about family! Fuck everyone else if I don't enjoy every single side dish!",
"Fucking weird, okay well now I know.",
"I will never do anything to disappoint Auntie Carmel.",
"It’s all about the food processor. I’d be clueless without it.\n\nEdit- Unless you boil the cranberries of course. I like to make it fresh.",
"Everyone thinks they know how. They don’t. Because it’s not possible.",
"Maybe not so much Instagram as TikTok (though it feels like everything is interchangeable now) but the number of \"anti-clout\" \"\"recipes\"\" I see shared with complete credulity is terrifying.\n\nNobody was making nachos on a granite countertop like Coldstone ice cream.\n\nNobody was adding milk to spaghetti. \n\nNobody was putting gummy worms in the toilet.\n\nUntil these assholes started aiming for \"anti-clout\" for the shares and knowing how easily people can take shit like this at face value, and how easily that turns into other disinformation being taken at face value. It's insidious and alarming, to say the least.",
"Mac and cheese *is* Thanksgiving food, and I don't see the connection between that and making instant mashed potatoes.",
"Marc Rebillet vibes",
"Dude. Does this woman have a go fund me? I feel this so much I need to support this woman somehow.",
"you.....you know you can make mac and cheese at home, right? Like it doesn't have to be the blue Kraft box.",
"You're not right... you just think you're right.",
">Literally its the most awful experience\n\n:|",
"That's what my brother did. He wanted to smoke the turkey for this year dinner. So three or four weeks ago he smoked one to practice on.",
"Sheeesh someones drank so much koolaid that they need to make a thanksgiving and general decency discussion about politics.",
"Thats exactly why I always make two. The traditional, I know everybody will love and the \"a·vant-garde\" one I really want to try.",
":)",
"Something tells me it's not really about the macaroni and cheese.",
"We do Friendsgiving in the summer or early fall and it's an easy experiment time.",
"Hahahaha",
"I feel the opposite. It's the day of the year with the largest number of dishes. A single bad one doesn't ruin the meal, and requires almost no performance of the begging off and polite hints that normal people do instead of having shitfits.\n\n\nIf it was the turkey, though, I would get it.",
"How to tell someone hasn’t had the real Thanksgiving Mac",
"I made the crumble topping for my mashed potatoes with salt and vinegar chips instead of regular. Nobody tried it, and it was fucking amazing. This was all unintentional though.",
"I think the only bad part is asking someone to make a dish then sending them a recipe to use. You want mac and cheese I'm gonna make mac and cheese but don't try to dictate how I make it.",
"Certainly warrants making a scene during a family holiday because a side dish wasn't to my specific tastes!",
"I grew up in Texas, I never had nor did anyone I knew.",
"She needs a YouTube or podcast",
"My Fontina, Gruyere, Cheddar, and Manchego mixed in a bechamel, then baked with a panko crust, Mac and cheese slaps. You’re loco if you think people eat boxed on thanksgiving",
"found the american\n\n\n\"i'm not like all the others\"",
"I like both. Both are good. Different, but good.",
"Nah some people know. I had some delicious fresh cranberry sauce today.",
"No ones enjoying the bitching, not even them.",
"fuck I miss Christmas tamales. when I lived in the bay there was a block mom who everyone would do this with. almost getting misty thinking about it lol. now I live 800 miles away and nary a tamale in sight, sweet or otherwise.",
"Yeah, I can do that any day. Who on Earth thinks what was missing from Thanksgiving dinner was another carbohydrate?",
"I have a friend who has a night before Thanksgiving party it's his practice for the event. Several turkeys one to deep fry one to smoke the rest for the next day. He also says bring it and we'll fry it.then well typically get pretty drunk pass out around his house. Then if you end up there around 9am or are still there you get a bloody Mary listen to Alice's restaurant and start smoking a turkey.",
">\tMy Fontina, Gruyere, Cheddar, and Manchego mixed in a bechamel, then baked with a panko crust, Mac and cheese slaps.\n\nSo do my ancho and guajilo enchiladas, but I don't serve them on Thanksgiving because that would be literally insane.",
"If you can't make cranberry sauce without a can opener, why would I believe your Mac and cheese isn't made from orange powder?",
"&#x200B;\n\nOh, your family’s out of control, but we can’t blame you because you have GOOD INTENTIONS!",
"Ugh, I'm so pissed the store is closed right now you guys.",
"This is family drama disguised as a mac and cheese issue. She seems like the kind of person who isn't happy unless she gets to start a fight and \"win\".",
"Story time, gather round.\n\n\nThe year was 2012. The Earth had come to an end because of the Mayan calender and the LRC opening up a demon portal.\n\n\nI was living in Jacksonville FL, with my ex and her daughter. I had gone vegan that year and we had decided to do a vegan Thanksgiving on our own and if family wanted to come over, they where welcome!\n\n\nSo we spent pretty much the day before and all morning making from scratch, everything vegan Thanksgiving dinner. The main course was mushroom Wellinton.\n\n\nMy mom and bro and her family all show up and smash all the food. I mean they fucking ate everything and we had left overs for maybe a day or two. My brother took 2 plates home with him because he was stoked on it.\n\n\nIt was a good day. My mom later told me that she and my brother where going to show up, placate us a little then go eat Chinese food.\n\nI am no longer vegan. Currently eating some delicious Mcdonalds and red bull for dinner cause I am working",
"Canned cranberry sauce takes like stinky feet/socks.",
"i'm not big on the manchego, but the first 3 w/a bechamel I use in my \"secret\" mac n cheese recipe, and people fight over the leftovers.\n\nI still get horrified that people think homemade mac n cheese is just putting a cheeselog w/some noodles and milk in a dish cooking it then mixing. uggggh cheese pasta glue",
"That's when you become the tamales block mom and spread the joy to your new community.",
"Is there a longer video you watched?",
"I prefer smoking 2 little ones to one big one. Seems to cook more even, even spatchcocked. With the big one, the edges were a bit overdone, but with 2 12 pounders, everything was good. This is the third time I've done it this way.",
"You wouldn't happen to be my sister-in-law, would you? Your husband forgot to put the pumpkin pie in the oven and you had to wait, but you loved your pumpkin cheesecake.",
"You gotta use gelatin to achieve the desired consistency without just making it into a syrup basically by adding more and more sugar until it thickens",
"The key is a TON of sugar/sweetener. Cranberries are incredibly tart so they need a lot of sweetness to balance it out. Not enough sugar and it will taste bad or no better than canned.\n\nIts not meant to be a healthy food at all.",
"You probably don't deserve her then.",
"I stand by her as any good husband should.",
"I'm confused. Who is using canned cranberry sauce here? I certainly don't, and there's no mention of cranberry sauce in the video, canned or otherwise, so what exactly are you talking about?",
"Damn that's some potent hot sauce lol. Spicy gravy... idk how I feel about that",
"> dressing\n\nI had to google this. Who the hell calls stuffing dressing? You stuff it you don't dress it lol",
"I'm pretty sure they just don't know better lol. Or they are dumb. I had a roommate who claimed he couldn't stand the taste of real meat and food. Pretty much ate only [Zap Ems](https://i5.walmartimages.ca/images/Large/212/144/999999-717854212144.jpg). I swear to god I would take him to get groceries and he would just buy 20 of those and some drinks lol. And he wonders why he always felt like shit lmao. That guy was a massage therapist too (or at least in school to be one), you think they would be a bit more health conscious",
"Ooh, the Max Miller recipe or a different one? Have been meaning to try that dish",
"Everyone should just make Jean Pierres turkey and leave it at that.",
"a1 sauce actually, pls, and a coke to dip it in as well. thanks.",
"TRUTH",
"Some people sub orange juice for some or all of the sugar since its so sweet.\n\nI suppose you could sub honey as well. It would be an interesting flavor adjustment.",
"LOL this guy doesn't have Mac and cheese on Thanksgiving. Everyone point and laugh.",
"I agree with your edit. The original had a different tone.",
"They edited after I posted the reply, it was a typo on their part.",
"It was \"da bomb\" hot sauce if I remember correctly. I don't know what we were thinking for real, we rarely modify recipes.",
"Holy shit.. this is hilarious 🤣",
"the famous \"da bomb\" from hot ones? yea that stuff was ruined also because I've heard people say the taste is just like battery acid",
"Honestly, how did we get here? Where everything is a performance now. Like you need to bring you A-game to every goddamn aspect of life, but in like a modern neurotic way.",
"I thought she was joking at first. But there's real anger in there.",
"But she’s so impolite! s/",
"The kid got sent off with a recipe and decided to go with a recipe off TikTok that was only cream cheese and mac. She doesn’t sound like your spontaneous, creative wonderful wife at all.",
"My comment was supposed to be a light hearted one. People take things seriously on here and downvote at the slightest reaction",
"Pro tip: experiment, but do it with a small amount at a time. \n\ni.e. Separate out a cup and mix in whatever you want in it. Taste it, and only add it to the main pot if it works.",
"Different subreddits got different vibes. ITT: intensely passionate opinions about macaroni.\n\nIf this were a cooking sub, you’d probably get people more receptive to your blissful domestic processes.",
"Hall nah. You do not experiment on Thanksgiving.\n\nI saw a recipe for Turkey on the internet that looked good. Wanted to try it.\n\nDidn’t try it for the first time on Thanksgiving, because I’m not a fool like that.\n\nI did a test run two weeks before with a chicken to see how it turned out.\n\nIf you’re cooking on Thanksgiving, you only do things you KNOW work.",
"And then there's my family, where every year is a different meal. \n\nWhile I'm welcoming any snark, it's always good. Some dishes don't go as well as others, but there's always next year.",
"Subtitles please.",
"So you're saying conservatives are asshole who treat everyone like shit? Okay",
"For many, the Mac and Cheese is as important as the turkey. And if one person was tasked with it, it's equivalent to fucking up the turkey for everybody.",
"This is the only time I'll mention it because it's relevant and thanksgiving is about being thankful, but yesterday my mother made chicken fried rice for thanksgiving. No seasoning of any kind.\n\nNot even peas. Just some chicken with heat applied to it for a bit, scrambled eggs, a couple baby carrots sliced up, and pre-frozen riced cauliflower. \n\nI'm thankful I didn't have to cook. Could I have made a better meal? Absolutely. Am I going to complain? Hell no. I put sesame oil, soy sauce, msg, and black pepper on it, ate it, and thanked her. \n\nI'm thankful I don't have to eat turkey for the next week. I'm thankful I didn't have to fake pleasantries for extended family. I'm thankful I still have a mom. Hell, I'm thankful for my ability to be thankful.\n\nJust my two cents. Y'all have a good night.",
"If your life revolves around one side dish and that side dish isn't Sweet Potato Casserole then you need to just STFU.",
"I'm vegan and I make mac & ch'z about 30 different ways. The best versions contain little or no plant-based cheese. I have my secrets!",
" Fresh cranberry sauce with the zest and juice of one orange will change you. \n\nIt's amazing how not awful it can be.",
"That is so downplayed you must be British.\n\nCanned cranberry sauce is sin made food, the bad sins like pedophilia and talking in the theater not the good sins like anal sex.",
"Just buy pure Capsaicin if you just want heat. It tastes not great but drop for drop it is the most spicy you can get.",

"Amazing video! Thanks for making my Friday morning",
"Jesus Christ she sounds like a bitch",
"Nope, sounds like others tried it out this year too.",
"That's the one.",
">sweet liberal potato ass\n\nWhat a weird insult. I mean, good for you for trying to do a Thanksgiving-themed insult but who doesn't like sweet potatoes? Honestly it reads like you're saying they have a sweet liberal ass.. Like a \"dang get over here with that sweet pumpkin pie ass\" kind of vibe.",
"Because that sauce was only made to kill your tongue, it’s like a joke item to buy and have “fun” with. Real sauces actually try to have a good flavor on top of the heat",
"Happy Thanksgiving everyone 😊",
"I like both. But the canned works better for the next-day \"everything on the table sandwich\".",
"Not everything, just maybe 2 dinners out of the year that can't be fucked up. 363 days of the year I'm eating pizza over a sink like a rat.",
"Tart cranberry is the right way. \nIt balances out the sweet Mashed potatoes and gravy.",
"Stuffing is done in the turkey, dressing is when its prepared outside the turkey",
"This would be exhibit A of my response to \"why don't you call or bring my grand babies around?\" This is some toxic bullshit.",
"Put one standard bag of cranberries in small saucepan (~ 1 quart), cover with brown sugar. Add 2 shots of spiced rum and a capful of triple sec (1 shot rum 1 shot grand Marnier if you got it like that). Boil until it looks like jam.",
"Many years ago, I made the mistake of being in the US over Thanksgiving. I, of course, had no idea. The first I knew about it was when I tried to eat and found that the hotel restaurant was closed. WTF America? I ended up flagging down a passing police car, and asking where I could find somewhere that might be open and serving food. Fortunately I had a car because they directed me to the only open place they knew, a Cracker Barrel some miles away. I had the macaroni cheese. So yeah, that's my experience of Thanksgiving in the US.",
"da bomb is not hot sauce. it’s capsaicin infused bile.",
"There is actually a geographic line where people say stuffing/dressing.\n\nIt can be a distinction about being cooked inside the turkey or not but it mostly depends on where you grew up",
"Canned cranberry sauce is literally 40 weight percent sugar. It’s about as high as you can go before the recipe starts to resemble a lollipop.",
"By the end she was yelling at Larry David",
"Why would you list them out of order like that? It's *always*: parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.",
"If you paid attention, the supposed person who made the mac n cheese said they made it before Thanksgiving.",
"Sounds like someone’s made shitty Mac and cheese before",
"I feel what this lady is saying (not cooking tik tok styrofoam and melted plastic macaroni and cheese for Thanksgiving), but this country could use some manners. She did say it eloquently still.",
"Thanks, I needed that after walking into a morning of drama about last nights drama.",
"The would be what we'd have normally done but we clearly weren't thinking at that time",
"Sadly (and hilariously)I think it is about the macaroni and cheese.",
"I just did my second year of spatchcock turkey to rave reviews. It really is a cheat code.",
"I'd normally agree with you, but she said that they specifically gave a family recipe to follow and told them not to put cream cheese in the dish. That person was outnumbered at least three to one and still did it their own way. If everyone says to follow a family recipe and they cook a different recipe that's disrespectful.\n\nImagine you wanted your steak medium rare but someone said they have a great well done recipe. You insist that you like your steak medium rare, but they cook you a well done steak that you don't like. Being angry in that case isn't being ungrateful, they just wasted a steak and disregarded your preferences entirely.",
"Anything commercial with cranberry has a lot of sugar or other fruit unless it specifically says otherwise. Cranberries are too tart to sell otherwise.",
"Nothing says 'day of thanks' like raking someone over the coals for not making a side dish to your exact specifications.",
"I'm sorry, were you there?",
"You want it made by an exact recipe, you make it the fuck yourself. If you ask me to make a dish, I'm making it my way.",
"Where did you get that info? Cause it ain't in the video.",
"It's like jelly vs jam. They're similar but different enough. I actually prefer the canned cranberry sauce, but the real shit is good sometimes too.\n\nJust comes down to preference anyway. Who gives a fuck",
"It's Thanksgiving dinner. Cook for the crowd, not yourself. \n\nI literally just had to do this yesterday. I was responsible for the mashed potatoes and have a garlic parmesan mashed potatoes recipe from Alton Brown that I like. Everyone else wanted plain mashed potatoes because they thought it would go better with turkey gravy. So I brought plain mashed potatoes.

"Yes, on new years eve",
"Yes, [here is a parody in German](https://youtu.be/NkS4H5fLcq4)",
"Dinner for One. You can watch this at multiple times or the night on NYE on public broadcasting channels in Germany",
"[Someone uploaded a post-production color version of the one from 1961!!](https://youtu.be/LM1paBIfDVA?t=19)",
"Not only german, generally lots of european countries have this as a tradition. In Norway it's tradition to air it on the 23rd of december (despite it being a new years eve party in the sketch). One year our national broadcasting channel tried to let it be known they would not be airing it, aaaaand.. they were forced to change their mind after thousands of complaints.\n\nGo figure.\n\n>It has become traditional viewing on New Year's Eve in European countries such as Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Estonia,[1] or on 23 December in Norway, and, as of 1995, was the most frequently repeated television programme in Germany ever.\n\n>The line \"Same procedure as every year\" (in the original English) has become a very popular catchphrase in Germany. The phrase has entered everyday vocabulary, and is used in newspaper headlines and advertisements.[22] This is also the case in Norway, Denmark and Sweden where the phrase has become a running joke about Christmas itself.",
"Wow - didn't know it was that wide spread. I'd heard of it as a kind of charming oddity. They are British comic actors in the film but, for the most part, no-one in the UK has heard of them or seen the film. It certainly isn't part of the Brit Christmas traditions.",
"Here in Australia, we watch it on new years eve. It's been shown on that day for 30 years on public tv.",
"It's not just a German tradition, it's actually a German production!\n\nThe recording was produced by the NDR, the public broadcaster for northern Germany, in their studio in Hamburg.",
"Did not know that. Fascinating! So why produce it in English?",
"Well, the actors were British, the author was British ...\n\nIf you want to read more about the background, it does actually have its own wikipedia article:\n\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinner_for_One",

"> No legs? Swing and a miss.\n\nThey explained that in one of the build videos.

It would be massively front heavy and likely to tip over with legs.\n\nAlso there is a \"Power Loader — Weaponized\" variant toy which does have tracks which they also used for justification.",

My main memory was trying to sit on some high up place but slipping off and falling on the floor, much to the amusement of those around me. I liked the music there at that time, but that scene went a bit too minimal for my taste later on. There is a good compilation called *Tresor II - Berlin Detroit - A Techno Alliance*.",

It felt truly dark, filthy, and grungy with some great bands; the place felt like a labyrinth that night, I completely lost myself in it. Would love to go back.",

"its an old blues standard and its originally from a female perspective, its about a house of prostitution. The Animals got it from Dylan, Dylan got his arrangement from Dave Van Ronk, Van Ronk got from black blues musicians.",

"Robert Rodriguez on the cut.",
"That is such an amazing scene. It’s really a short film to start a movie. I love the entire movie, but I can watch that scene in particular over and over again!",
"I was 10 at the time this movie came out. I effing loved it and remember Salma Hayek's first dancing scene igniting something inside me. 😂",
"I watched this movie with my best buddies the night it premiered in the theater when I was 17. It was practically a religious experience.",
"Wow, they show agonal breathing in this :O. I think thats the only time I've seen it in a movie :o.",
"Love this film \n\nI watched this with my family after days ago big mistake",
"When I find someone I know hasn't seen this movie, I watch it with them without telling them what kind of movie it is just to see them lose their minds halfway through.",
"Tarantino as an actor is underrated.",
"One of the things that made [Tina's Death](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1MLLMASSXSg) in *A Nightmare on Elm Street* so scary to me when I first saw it is the *sounds* she makes. Most horror victims get out one good \"EEEK!\" and it's over. Tina takes a long time to die and not only is it gory as hell, but she has these gasping, heaving *shrieks* that make it clear just how close to the end she is.\n\nNot sure if it's precisely agonal breathing, but it sure makes the scene effective.",
"Great opening scene but I am partial to Ryan Phillipe telling an unknown Sarah Silverman that he is going to \"[\"Fuck Start Her Head\"](https://youtu.be/9w6UUkkOmgo).",
"Salma Hayek in that scene has been cemented in my mind as the definition of perfection.",
"I can't take Clooney seriously as a bad guy.",
"Just watched Desperado. He is definitely not a good actor.",
"Good thing they censored all the bad words.\n\nNow I can show this clip to children",
"Not even in *O Brother, Where Art Thou?*",
"Thats like panic. Aganol breathing is like... this strange like gaping and gasping when you're basically brain dead. Its like the last bits of your functions playing out even though the rest of the person isn't 'home'. Its a really horrible thing to watch, so I really don't suggest looking for it. Usually what its attached to are videos that will scar you forever. So... yeah.",
"I disagree. He's not a very versatile actor, but I totally buy him as a psychopath. He's great in this movie.",
"Link is dead? I'm getting \"Video Unavailable\".",
"It the opening scene to [The Way Of The Gun.](https://youtu.be/OGsm1g3Ow8k)",
"Thanks, that worked!",
"Unknown? I already had a crush on her for 6 years by this point.",
"Go watch Destiny Turns on the Radio and get back to us on that.",
"If you're saying he's a bad actor, I won't disagree I guess. But for this movie, he's on point. Jesus, everyone wants to be an authority on subjective subjects. LOL",
"> \"Insert quote from linked video\"\n\nwhat a riot",
"I thought he was perfect in From Dusk Til Dawn but not so much in anything else though.",
"James conn was epic as the old wanting to retire bag man also.",
"Was he even really that bad ? I mean didn't he do some white collar crime like practicing dentist without a state license or something?",
"It's crazy how much better of an actor Clooney is than Tarantino. Tarantino is clearly working so hard, and Clooney is just not pushing it at all.",
"It feels like a mashup of scripts and the first half is excellent, the second half...ehhh.",
"It was ridiculous",
"Anything else?\n\nHe delivers some of the best scenes in Reservoir Dogs (monologue at the start). And in Pulp Fiction, the scenes with Mr Wolf.",
"I forget what really good editing is like. Great job.",
"Reservoir Dogs is still my favorite film of his but not a fan of his acting or character in that one though. Sorry if I upset you in any way. The Destiny comment was really meant more as a joke.",
"Fuck censorship.",
"I saw it that way during its original theater release. Literally the only thing I knew about it was that it was a “Quentin Tarantino movie“.\n\nIt was about 15 minutes before I was sure that the vampire stuff wasn’t a character’s hallucination sequence that was going to end any second now.",
"His cameo in Django with the questionable redneck accent was painful.",
"All the bleeping actually ruined the scene. \n\nEven \"I've had it with these monkey fighting snakes on this Monday-to-Friday plane.\" was marginally better, if only for the comedic effect of the obvious overdub.",
"Man, I came across this movie on tv the other day and knew nothing about it. I started watching and was really into it. Then all of a sudden, it goes off the rails... I had to turn it off. I was left wishing I could see a second half to the movie I liked so much",
"Wow he is just terrible. He’s in it for the camp not the quality",
"They remake it in the opening of the series. Watching them side by side shows how QT is so good.",
"I think it ignited something in all of mankind.... some womankind too.",
"He can definitely act like he is turned on by young women’s feet and a total creep really well.",
"He was an extremely minor con man, yeah.",
"No. That is half the scene. What the hell?",
"Foot fetish?",
"The best movie to do that with people is The World's End(2013)\n\nIt's a straight sad sack man boy drama until the twist and it is so worth it to spring that on people.",

"I had some chucklefuck spoil the massive twist in this movie for me when I told them I was seeing it that afternoon, so I have never ever enjoyed it and an dismayed I was robbed of that enjoyment.",
"This is when I still liked Tarantino. I feel bad for the clerk now though. He didn't deserve that and Clooney shouldn't have a redemption arc.",
"Interesting!",
"I always figured he had some bet with someone about being able to say the n-word in front of Samuel L Jackson, then goes off like a 3 year old who just learned to swear..",
"Was going to comment that ‘Way of the Gun’ had my favorite opening scene. Good call out!",
"Mr. Falcon",
"awesome genius fallguywork too.",
"Old is an adjective\n\nAnd it's James Caan",
"Who's laugh is that?",
"This whole movie was written so tarantino could suck salma hayeks toes",
"The popcorn was a nice touch",
"Fuck shitty corporations",
"Missster F!",
"Saving private ryan is on a whole nother level.",
"Not sure of the downvote here, it's a fine idea.",
"I honestly thought this movie was terrible. Saw it in theatre. But to be fair, movies that just roll from scene to scene with flat characters just to set up a \"this looks cool\" scene without plot or three dimensional real characters isn't my thing. Like I thought Atomic Blonde was terrible also in that way. This movie is like it was written by two 15 year olds. \n\"Dude, ok, next we got this guy and he has a gun on his DICK!\"\n\"Haha, that's awesome man. But the strippers are all vampires!\"\nThis is how I imagine the writers room. Although in this case it was probably loads of cocaine and Sergio Leone references",
"I saw this movie opening night without knowing anything about it. I hadn’t seen a trailer for it. So I was shocked during the bar scene. Loved it.",
"Is that John hawkes? This is the second time this week I found out he’s a bit in something I totally didn’t know he was in. Other was Congo.",
"George Clooney is the worst damn actor. \nIf there was ever an actor who just played himself in every effing movie, Clooney wins the award.",
"This is a horrible take. \nClooney isn't an actor. He plays himself in every single film. You could put this same character in 'up in the air' or 'oceans 11' or any other damn movie except for brother where art thou",
"This movie was the perfect mix of boobs, gore, and dick-gun-jokes for my adolescent brain.",
"It took Clooney dozens of takes to get his lines out correctly.",
"Tarantino wrote it but Rodriguez edited it.",
"Same here…and I took a girl to it on a first date! 🤣\n\nShe was not the edgy type. Didn’t get a second.",
"Salma fetish.",
"He couldn't even win a fight with some pomade wearing dandy.",
"Kids, if you set your mind to it, you can achieve *anything*.",
"Without censorship you pussies :)\n\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3c6wBIMwrY",
"One does acting full time, the other writing and directing full time. A firefighter will be better at firefighting compared to a police officer lol.",
"What specific parts do you mean? I wanna learn more about editing and so what makes it better than others?",
"Yeah, this scene hits different since the time I saw this shit IRL. So many movies leave you fucked up for some time now and they did nothing before.",
"Also he seemed to really hate his lines. But then, there were some dumb fucking lines.",
"I remember a TV station wanted to show Saving Private Ryan and Spielberg said sure but you cannot censor it. The TV station decided not to show it because the F word was said 2-3 times and refused to air it without it being censored\n\nI still think about that hand to hand fight scene near the end when the guy got stabbed in the heart",
"Maxwell",
"Big topic/ question! I’m sure there’s a forum for just that topic. \n\nThe most obvious was the use of cuts back and forward with the opening of the safe to build up suspense.",
"What about Clint Eastwood? Owen Wilson? Chris Tucker? Anthony Hopkins? Samuel L Jackson? Those guys don’t really modulate from performance to performance, but they’ve all made some good movies. Actors with tons of range or actors like Daniel Day Lewis who can change their physical appearance/voice to disappear into a role are amazing, of course, but I also don’t think there’s anything wrong with movie stars who have a persona.",
"Hell yeah watching that in theaters had me fucking dying",
"The whole movie should've been about these two on the run doing crimes, with Clooney's character slowly realizing Tarantino's character isn't just a criminal but a psychopath.",
"If you say it's the \"best opening scene ever\" which is already a silly subjective statement (not saying this opening isn't amazing), how about do it justice and show the clip from when it starts with the cop walking into the store and having the humorous conversation with Benny, instead of starting with the cop getting shot. Those first few minutes are what make this whole scene even better.",
"If you have not seen this movie, don't look it up, don't look at pictures or reviews or anything, just go sit and watch it.",
"That was australian. And no less painful for it.",
"> Anthony Hopkins? \n\nYes, Silence of The Lambs, Remains of the Day, The Father, same fucking performance all the time...",
"Lol what. He's terrible. Especially in this.",
"You guys find weird subtext in shit that's not there.",
"The movie would have been a forgetable crime flick without the second half.",
"I don't disagree. But saying Clooney is an actor is an insult to actors. \nHe isn't. He is a personality. That's it",
"We thought you was a toad.",
"...do. not. seek. the. treasure!",
"Listen to his line about living or dying and tell me he wasn't trying to get it over as quick as possible.",

"Mother Nature reclaiming what is hers when we abuse her. F around and find out!",
"Sure. One way to look at it... But we still celebrate birth like it is some sort of miracle. That we somehow need a fuckton more of us on this planet. Well, 7+ billion people gotta eat. The most fertile land is in the valleys. It's real tough to grow crops along mountain tops.",
"Then why are all the First Nations bands in this area completely cut off from food, fuel, fresh water and medical? After their communities were burned out 5 months ago. Pretty sure we’re all in this shit together right now.\n\n[scenes like this are playing out across the Province](https://vm.tiktok.com/ZM8t1G3Tg/)",
"Who do you think is being hit the hardest right now?\n\nI've got friends taking donations to cover fuel for flying float planes in for emergency relief to these now VERY remote communities.",
"Telus has dropped a bunch of Satelite Phones to @west_coast_pilot on Instagram. He is trying to get them distributed to First Nations communities without communications. He has a list of bands they are still trying to reach to figure out their needs. Not sure if your float plane friends are working with him or not?",
"So stupid. So braindead. What the hell do you think YOU know about anything here? Your opinion is a joke.",
"Love how this is the comment you chose to reply to. definitely stupid",
"Since I've never seen a post with the first 2 and only comments with a down vote total of -12 and dropping, I'm gonna comment with a cut and paste of post I made in /r/flying. Hopefully this isn't all negative from here...\n\nA local pilot, @ west_coast_pilot is an absolute legend. I know this post will reach people who have no idea what British Columbia, Canada is up against right now, so here is the situation…\n\n\nLast week, we were hit by the equivalent of over a month of rain in just 24 hours. An Atmospheric River with warm temperatures that melted several feet of fresh snow at the same time. All of that water hit land absolutely devastated by forest fires over the past few years, including massive fires last summer. Land that used to absorb water that now repels it.\n\n\nThe resulting floods destroyed highways, rail lines, power lines. It damaged critical infrastructure like pipelines. It flooded farmlands and destroyed our dairy industries…\n\n\nVancouver, a region home to millions of people is (was) completely cutoff from the rest of Canada. Every road route to or from was damaged. Some so severe they will take months for just temporary fixes. Others have been completely destroyed.\n\n\nThe region is facing food shortages and the government has implemented fuel rations, which backfired and caused panic buying. Our ports are congested because rail isn’t running, so bringing in more supplies is difficult. Some supplies are spoiling on the docks or on ships. Communities are evacuated and others are completely cut off from re-supply. To make matters worse, these are areas that get cold. Really cold and winter is setting in.\n\n\nSo that is a quick overview, because I know most of the world has no idea. Hell, most of Vancouver still has no idea. It’s surreal how normal life feels Downtown with so many people suffering and losing everything just half an hour down on a flooded highway away.\n\n\nSo, needlessly to say, people need help. And that’s where people like @ west_coast_pilot and @ turbolyft have been coming to the rescue!\n\n\nThis week, British Columbia’s General aviation community stepped up! Private pilots showed up enmass to help ferry people out of Hope British Columbia, a town with a small grass strip where thousands of people were stranded.\n\n\nThen, yesterday (few days ago now) Shaun organized 30,000lbs of food and supplies delivered to his hangar in Langley, BC. Then organized 24 private planes to ferry supplies to Merritt. He organized volunteers to unload the planes to get them quickly turned around for more loads, and even a local Sikh Temple to help pay the pilots fuel receipts!\n\n\nThen, he organized helicopters to ferry those supplies directly to communities cutoff and needing aid. He has been orgainzing flights for people stranded around the Province and to get Medications and aid.\n\n\nThis is Highway 8, a minor highway connecting small communities in the mountains to two major highways. (I was mistaken in the audio. This is the Nicola River. [I thought it was Spius Creek](https://imgur.com/a/3rviZon) just further south that is running just as hard.\n\n\nMore flights are being coordinated for communities waiting for the roads to open. If someone has the links, please post them\n\nOh, and if anyone has the phone numbers for Ryan Reynolds, Seth Rogen, Steve Nash, Pamela Anderson, David Foster, Nelly Furtado and some of the other British Columbians who could get the word out how bad the Province has been destroyed... I know Michael Bublé is being defrosted either this week or already was last week.\n\n[Local New Story on the area](https://globalnews.ca/news/8401069/highway-8-residents-destruction/?utm_medium=Facebook&utm_source=GlobalBC&fbclid=IwAR2JYYWKE1_aq49k53wh9Z42sWn22ODl8dwcqqLHMUIzPBRIegDmfiJdkoY)\n\nEdit: Ryan Reynolds tweeted about BC this morning! Whoo! Thanks Reddit!",
"Unfortunately society doesn't run without fuel right now. Name me one large excavator or bulldozer that runs on electricity. Yes, it's coming, no, it isn't here yet. \n\nWithout pipelines reestablished in this country, fuel stops. If fuel stops, work stops, if work stops, highways and railways knocked out last week don't reopen and Vancouver dies or has to become refugees of Washington an Oregon.",
"Well it is time to get some boats it looks like.",

Thankfully we knew another spot on another river not being evac'd that could use the stuff.\n\nThey lost horses last year in the fires. It's been hit after hit for them.",
"🤦🏻♂️\n\nYeah… the river has always been exactly where you see it now. They just let it lap against the side of the highway, eroding as it pleases. /s\n\n[For Steven Rice, a local farmer and director for the Thompson Nicola Regional District’s Area “I,” the damage hits literally close to home.](https://globalnews.ca/news/8401069/highway-8-residents-destruction/?utm_medium=Facebook&utm_source=GlobalBC&fbclid=IwAR2JYYWKE1_aq49k53wh9Z42sWn22ODl8dwcqqLHMUIzPBRIegDmfiJdkoY)\n\n“The river has been moved, literally moved.

I can’t even begin to tell you the amount of hours I worked up the manning…. The First Nations bands were absolutely amazing and hospitable even during such dire times. This is so hard to see.",
"No, I'm from Vancouver. But now that I've been here. Hugged the people while tying to help them get back on their feet, I'm deeply emotionally invested. I honestly feel like chicken little back in Vancouver, where everyone is just living life. You know, it's tough to find some meat back in Vancouver, and a lot of gas stations are out of gas. but beyond that, life is normal DT.\n\nI just wanna bring some awareness to the destruction up here so they can get some help.",

"I was wrong. It is a river. We delivered supplies to a farm a few miles south before going back for another load of supplies. I asked the Spius Creek farm if it was the Nicola River, because the creek was raging like a river. \n\nSo, I was confused because the Spius Creek dumped into the Nicola River a few hundred meters down from us. \n\nWhen we arrived with the second load on the Nicola River, the people were already evacuated and I thought it was also along the Spius Creek. So we decided to take the generator onboard to the first farm, since we knew theirs was knocked out in the flood and filmed along the way.",

"Holy shit I had not seen that pic yet, I've seen some pretty crazy localized floods, mainly the Oyster River, we had a storm a few years back that completely carved new paths and bends in the river, the amount of trees in the estuary was insane, I honestly can't even fathom what's been washed out, I'm sure we will see the logs and trees come up island eventually but the amount of silt looks almost CGI, out of this world for real, Hard to look at and not feel something, everyone who moved here had to take those highways in (assuming they Uhauled it or drove) leaves you speechless, Crazy, the long term effects are going to literally be insane, like you said Lost farmland and the salmon runs just finished as well, history in the making!",

"im a tree planter and firefighter living and working in BC. After the fire season we had this year, i knew it would gonna be a mudslide season in late fall, but i dont think anyone could have seen it being this bad.",
"There’s four highways gone. And countless homes and lives disrupted. BC has no road access to the rest of the country now. \n\nGood thing we’re arresting climate change protestors though. What a relief.\n\nEdit: the lower mainland is cut off from the rest of BC. Not all of BC. To be clear.",
"Canadian Thanksgiving was last month.",
"I really want to see the video of a cow on jet skis please!!! :)",
"The screenplay was started in the early 1900s and leaked in its entirety in the 70s",
"That was super nice",
"Oh it was. It was well maintained and a blast to drive in nice weather. Always really enjoyed the drive in Summer and Fall",
"This is textbook hindsight bias.",
"[As well, parts of the Cabot Trail in Cape Breton are out of commission](https://globalnews.ca/news/8401715/atlantic-canada-cleaning-up-rain-wind/) (but the tourist season is over, at least). #NSStrong.",
"Guess what? It just for renewed for 100 new seasons and some spinoffs. The whole idea is having to decide what's worse: Having no water for months and years, or getting months and years of water all at once. \nI can't even continue joking. It's too serious. And it is only gonna start happening more and more. Good luck out there.",
"When events like this happen every few years, it's hard, but society can handle it. But when the number of refugees exceeds capacity, and it happens often enough that people start to lose sympathy and resent the influx of displaced people or ignore all the GoFundMe pages, that's when shit will get bad. And when the government can't mobilize enough resources and people to help, that's when it will get worse. Get ready.",
"Stop saying that! The “lower mainland,” as they call it - Vancouver, Chilliwack, Abbotsford, Hope et al are cut off from the rest of BC, and is from them, but area-wise, it’s a very small portion of British Columbia.\n\nA very important portion; a great deal of what we sell to and buy from China goes through that area; it’s our main Pacific seaport, and the main source of BC’s dairy and fresh produce…but BC is not ‘cut off’ from the rest of the country.",
"It really was a lot of fun. I drove it a few times over the years. It used to have a rail line as well that was decommissioned quite a few years ago. Sadly it will likely take quite a while to repair it as it really isn't a major thoroughfare. \n\nFortunately....Highway 97C which runs from Ashcroft to Merritt is very close to it and it offers up some pretty spectacular driving conditions as well. If you ever get the chance to drive it...or ride it...then I highly recommend it.",
"\"Whoopsie daisy now the cars in the river\"",
"That seems like a very significant part of the population.",
"Agh yes, climate change, global warming, etc etc. The event that has been perpetually 5 years out if we don't act immediately since the 1980s.",
"The only thing worse than the devil’s advocate at a Reddit party is the finicky commenter. You’re not wrong. But I’m sure the residents being washed out of their communities aren’t in the news being like, “don’t worry—it’s only the lower mainland that’s cut off!!”",
"It's a farce. Been hearing about it for 30 years and everytime something bad happens its always whatever the new buzzword is for climate change. Even if it is real ot doesn't matter unless we could get India, China, and Russia on board. They won't be.",
"I don't get it. It looks like a normal road in Edmonton.",
"I have to imagine that the engineering standards for these highways are about to get a serious re-think.",
"There is plenty of destruction from this in many areas of the province , I have been cleaning flooded homes on Vancouver Island and watch an 80 ft fir with the roots pass bye me on the ferry last week with tons of debris . I hope we survive the next wave of storms . Check on your neighbours be kind and remember Covid doesn’t care about you so mask up and get vaccinated we don’t need outbreaks in the middle of this .",
"ya veo buen paisaje",
"Dudes gonna flex when he's with the homies",
"Wow",
"At one point they all were but I think they cleaned up highway 3 and 7 so truck can at least move. Essential travel only. The rail line just came back online and we got another big dump of rain yesterday and and another one tomorrow. \n\nWith any luck this will be a cold winter and the rain will be less but that comes with its own issues.",
"Look at all the mud coming out of the squamish and cheakamus. I hope the barrier doesn't go",
"Not to burst your bubble, but the cows weren't ON the jetskis, the farmers took in jetskis, grabbed a lead, and brought them to higher ground.",
"https://amp.knowyourmeme.com/memes/thats-the-joke",
"I think 99 is open now too.",
"I am not understating the effect it’s had on them, and of course the rest of the province is affected as well. But what you said was wrong. Thank you for editing your comment, but it was careless. \n\nMy pointing out a glaring error or deliberate mistruth is not ‘finicky,’ unless you consider truth and accuracy ‘finicky.’\n\nHave you looked at a map?\n\nWhy did you write it that way?",
"Yes, it’s the majority of the population, but it’s disingenuous to say “BC is cut off from the rest of the country.” If you look at a map, compared to the rest of the province, it’s a tiny part.\n\nI’m not downplaying it; it’s a huge disaster with big repercussions for the whole province, but that was just wrong to say.",
"On some level I think there's a valid disagreement about BC being its people, or its borders here. But I totally get your point only if it's semantic.",
"You should listen to your username more.",
"If they had said “Western Canada’s largest city is cut off” I would not have argued. \n\n“BC is cut off from the rest of the country” is just stupid.\n\nPerhaps Vancouverites think of themselves as ‘BC,’ (I doubt it) but the rest of the province would not agree.",
"Yep, who cares if the people are all going to starve as long as the land can still be accessed by marmots in Alberta ~_~",
"I like to write about the big provinces the same way the rest of Canada writes about the Maritime and Atlantic provinces (there’s 3 Maritimes ones and 4 Atlantic ones, for future reference).",
"That makes no sense.",
"Welcome to Reddit, where everything’s made up and the points don’t matter. - Drew Carrey, basically",
"Even if global warming was real ?? Look at this: [https://i.redd.it/5d65yn1v1ln61.jpg](https://i.redd.it/5d65yn1v1ln61.jpg)",
"Absolutely... I'm up in PG and anytime I went south to Van or the island, I would route through 5a, or Hwy 8... the twistier the better, and this one was a real gem. Just had to watch out for livestock!",
"Should also note, as someone who grew up on the sumas flats, flooding come May is an annual concern throughout the impacted areas. Depending on snowfall this year and how spring plays out the temporary measures will not withstand the spring run off if we have a cold winter.\n\nIf the rain holds off through the next month it's only buying a little time for us. Come spring it'll get worse and we'll be trying to rebuild next summer under threat of fire and heat.\n\nIt's awesome to see everyone helping these people, while also disheartening to see the greed from residents in less impacted areas (I live in Victoria now) . It's only likely to get worse though.....",
"Mother Nature doesn't care either way. There is no karmic motive here, just physics.",
"This is natures way of telling us that we angered it one too many times, and now we pay the price for it. Never forget that the 1 percent are responsible for 50 percent of the global co2 emissions.",
"Karma for not respecting canadas indigenous population",
"Sorry about the conditions out there, but that last part gave me a chuckle. Hope it improves for you up there.",
"I guess you've never heard of weather [modification](https://youtu.be/v67nPTG3Pno). What could be happening is there are some powerful people with top secret technology that are manipulating the weather while pushing a made-up story called global warming. \n\nThey do this so that they can normalise the use of electronics for everything like cash and cars. They tell you that these electronic ways safe and clean, what they never tell you is that they can also always be hacked. \n\nIt wouldn't be good in the future if you're driving your car down the road and then suddenly it stops because someone sitting in their kitchen on the other side of the world just hacked into your system. Or if every transaction you made was recorded, why in your right mind would you trust strangers with that information, just because they work for the government? They know all about you, what do you know about them, nothing.",
"So as a result, fucked them over even harder, cutting off their communities, contaminating their drinking water and destroying their nations? You've solved it.",
"Canada was burning up and now lacks foliage to stem erosion control combined with escalated storm activity. Think you’re going to see more of this. I also hope everyone is ok, but, seriously, this is not a random anomaly.",
"We often take for granted things like roads being intact in America, and should remind ourselves not all countries function as well as ours does. Count your blessings. Praying for the British Columbians",
"This road has been here, without any major construction for 70 years. We build in this country for 200 year events. This was almost 12 inches of water in 36 hours that was warm. It melted several feet of fresh snow and fell on land decemated by massive fires last summer that evacuated the entire region and burned down entire towns. \n\nWe aren't some backwards 3rd world country with dirt roads. This is ground that doesn't absorb water combined with a fuckton of water.",
"> BC has no road access to the rest of the country now.\n\nI'm pretty sure there's still road access through the US.",
"Climate change. The fires were never this bad, the flooding is unnatural, it's unexpected.\n\nWe'll fix it, obviously, but here's hoping this doesn't become an annual event.",
"So there’s powerful people who’ve been pumping chemicals in the atmosphere that is warming the planet? You don’t fucking say! Do you think the powerful people should stop modifying the climate?",
"I corrected this in my edit.",
"It isn't random, no. Physics isn't random, it's precise, even with complex systems that seem random.",
"It is. I love the area for rockhounding and would camp in these areas. So peaceful. Such a tragedy."

"Liberals should be a lot more welcoming to conservatives, we just got done with so many years of turbulence culminating to violence, a ton of people are on the fence, generally open to new perspectives especially after what happened. I think the problem is that reddit only sees conservatives through the lens of reddit. Right leaning extremists get so much news-time and clicks these days. there's so much more to take into consideration than political beliefs when it comes to people. when I see posts like u/nfire1 it makes me sad. I really agree with what you said.\nEdit: feed me your down-votes. Give me a valid argument and I'll admit I'm wrong.",

"I'm not even American but you clearly have no idea how their politics work",
"Fallout boy had me dead",
"The only time I have ever personally known someone who has become more conservative is after their life completely spirals out of control and they become hateful and blame their failures on scapegoats.

We are not the damned, nor will we wave the white flag!",
"He makes a good point though. 'all fat people suck donkey balls'. No middle ground, just a dumb statement. I'm Dutch, and either I come across a liberal post and it's everyone on the bandwagon stomping on the conservatives or the other way around. \n\nThen again, reddit is topnotch hive mind bandwagon shit. Express a different opinion and back it up with arguments? NAhhhhh, downvote because we don't do that free thinking here. YoU ThInK dIfFeRenT aNd ThAt'S bAd.",

"You mean coitus?",
"How can you affirmatively say that mean comments on the internet don’t influence your political opinion? There very well may be a chance that it does psychologically does impact you in some identifiable way. \n\nFor instance it’s been shown that outside factors such as your hunger, your sleep, what your previous feelings were, drugs you are on, greatly affects how you interact with people. \n\nIf someone were to anger you by calling you racist, derogatory names, etc how could you know for certain that your political opinion was not affected in some way at that point in time. What I’m trying to say is that humans are not purely logical beings at all. If someone were to personally insult me by going through my post and chat history I know for a fact that I would act more aggressively towards that person instead of having a somewhat civil conversation. Therefore, as a result I can say that at least for me, my political beliefs would be less likely to be swayed and I might very well become subconsciously more aggressive toward some political ideology.\n\nIn layman’s terms if I called you _______, you wouldn’t like me. If you don’t like me you might start projecting your feelings of me onto other people of my (fictional) political ideology called I don’t fucking know “blue wall”. \n\n:p hopefully you respond and read all of this. So often I respond to other stuff opening up the door for discussion and then I get no response…\n\nSort of like the idea of echo chambers as one commentator said above. This country was built on disagreement, discussion, and compromise. But it seems as of late that this is being destroyed.\n\nBecause I’m already being downvoted. Please give an argument for how I am in fact flawed in my logic. The chance to openly discuss politics is open, I may even change my opinion on the matter as well.",

There's actually an old 4chan pol post with directions for \"How to argue with liberals,\" and this is one of the exact phrases, the whole \"go farther right\" deal. The downvotes hit hard because you were talking about him not using his brain and echo chambers while posting what appears to be copy and pasted.\n\nWhat do you mean, it's making you go farther right? A person made a dumb statement, as you said, but shouldn't making such a basic ass statement just indicate that the person's opinion isn't that important? I'm sure you realize that there are some real cooks on both sides of the US political spectrum. Why base your position so heavily on the opinions of the worst people? Most left leaning folks don't usually call people losers. Do you think I'd be correct to base my position on Conservatives off of the absolute worst people on that side? Some random absolutely violent, hateful extremist? By go farther right, what do you mean? You'll care even less about what happens to weak and needy people? Vote for legislation that makes it even harder for people in need to get assistance? Weaken labor laws and environmental protections as much as possible to ensure corporations can do whatever they want, even if it's harmful? If you feel your core values align with the right, you're already there, that's their platform. The only thing further than that is the whole hateful/violent extremist thing.\n\nIf that's the correct path, should I go farther left everytime a Conservative makes a blanket statement about Liberals? What would that look like to you? Would I dye my hair purple and reeee all day about social justice? Would I advocate for giving up all my property and rights to the government and turning America into a hippie commune? Sacrifice some babies, perhaps? My core values are already strongly in favor of having the government work as a tool that ensures that people come first above all else, and a nation where everyone works together and looks out for one another.

The clash was one of the biggest names to usher it in with high profile covers of famous reggae/ska songs like Pressure Drop and Police and Thieves. \n\nSome bands stuck with the cleaner ska sounds like The Beat or UB 40 or The Specials and some leaned heavy on the punk side, like Operation Ivy which eventually turned into Rancid and is the catalyst of most ska/punk you hear today.

"I guess it's a niche topic, but this whole comment chain is pretty much wrong about the history of ska.\n\nFirst wave ska predates reggae and is almost entirely Jamaican, it has no punk influence (it predates punk obviously, by over a decade) and it is not British. The Skatalites, Prince Buster, Toots and Maytals, they were all making ska in Jamaica before anyone British knew much about it.\n\nThe Specials and the whole Two-tone era definitely come out of the mid 70s British punk scene, but a fusion between that and what Jamaicans had brought over at the time. This is not entirely a skinhead thing (which was its own offshoot, and pretty ironic honestly), but more because, the whole ethos behind punk is open to experimentation and accepting styles that are otherwise non-traditional. \n\nYou can hear both that Jamaican sound and that punk sound in the same second wave ska bands. Compare the Specials' \"Too Hot\" and \"Little Bitch\", one is definitely a very Jamaican sound, but the other is just as much that 70s punk sound. This goes on into the 80s\n\nThe 3rd wave is mostly that Orange County sound, (but not all 3rd wave bands were from California. Mustard Plug is from Michigan and they're just as much 3rd wave ska as RBF or Sublime) in the late 80 and 90s (though it's blurry. Fishbone started in 79, when did they become 3rd wave ska?) Compared to that 1st wave Jamaican stuff, the third wave is a lot more punk. But, especially in the 90s, pop-punk was influential, and it had its influence on ska, too. \n\n2nd and 3rd wave ska is punk. Ska is Jamaican originally, but what we think of as ska today is just as much British and American. Ska evolved just like the rest of punk did.",

Like Guttermouth, [I can get along with anyone if I absolutely have to.](https://youtu.be/hj_qbtMtcRE)\n\nI'm not a reactionary anymore. If I meet someone racist, i'll generally just make fun of them a little bit but then have a serious discussion about why racism is a trick the ruling class uses on us silly bastards.\n\nCorporate media are [hate breeders](https://youtu.be/KcxN86BHlJ8).\n\nOld school punks were blue collar youth, mostly [raised by blue collar conservative types](https://youtu.be/nIg85Oi29eE) but weren't specifically left leaning. [Straight edge](https://youtu.be/gsAu-nOg3Tw) kids were fairly conservative.

"I'll go one step further, over the last couple years I've started actively listening to a lot of pop and most other genres for that matter. On any given day I could be listening to Taylor Swift, Jeff Rosenstock, The Weeknd, Sleep Token, Modest Mouse, Kendrick Lamar, Streetlight Manifesto, The Midnight, and KennyHoopla. Turns out music is more fun when you stop caring what people think of your musical tastes. \n\nHaving said that, 90s pop was all about boy bands and Spice Girls. It was Britney and Cristina. Pop punk was maybe a bridge, but it definitely wasn't what the music world called \"pop\". Alternative radio stations that wouldn't touch NSync with a ten foot pole had Blink and Green Day on regular rotation. If you live in a world where I Miss You is the only song you know by Blink, I could see how you might make that mistake, but even then it'd be closer to some of the softer songs on alternative radio of the time. \n\nIt's only in the very strictest of definitions that Blink wouldn't be considered punk. Only in the \"has to be DIY, anti-label, anti-success, with musicians who don't know how to play their instruments\" sense, that you could exclude Blink from the punk conversation. And that is clearly gatekeeping. If it's that important to you, leave them off your punk playlists, no one's going to care. But making a declarative statement like this, acting like you are one of the honoured few arbitrators of punkness, is only going to get you downvotes and rolled eyes.",
"Was so much fun!",
"Checking in from North Shore Mass - this was amazing. Loved the sign off.",
"Yeah and to be fair this isn’t really specific to conservative talk radio. It’s all talk radio. I think sports and politics are worse because you get the biggest morons on the phone and the biggest egos on the mic, but all radio people are never listening and just waiting to get their next thought barfed out",
"The world I lived in called Blink pop. Still does. You can put in the general \"rock\" category if you like, but nothing about it resembles punk music except the simplicity of the chord choices, maybe, and that's hardly unique to punk. \n\nVote and roll your eyes all you want, I'm rolling mine harder at the brigade of people who \"don't care about labels and hate gatekeeping\", but absolutely must define their particular favorite pop band as punk to make it feel more worthy.",
"That was one example stupid. \n\nYes, everyone single one was just totally joking. Nobody was ever mad or complained (still complains) about Obama. The only President this has ever happened to in history is Trump. It's a total 'derangement syndrome'!! 🙄\n\n(That was last paragraph was sarcasm. Have to state that for the smarties like you. )\n\nDo you cry everytime SNL does a skit about a former President?\n\nI wish you didn't ride Trump's dick so hard, but here we are.",
"As long as politicians are profiteering from prisons and hospitals, someone will want you to think that it's true.",
"Don't know about Newfound Glory, but I've heard Fallout Boy described as \"bubblegum punk\" and I think that's pretty accurate. You need the bubblegum qualifier for it to make sense though.",
"Oh yeah, makes sense. I fucking hate bubblegum.",
"Point taken",
"Lol, If you're under the age of 50, you miss d the punk scene, and have no idea what it was about. Punk is dead, long live pop.",

Again, what are you brand new?\n\nSteam coming off your forehead every time you see a 1 dollar or 5 dollar bill?\n\nYou are a Trump dick rider. It's all over your comments. You explicitly say the Obama criticisms and jokes were no big deal and you're crying and pissing your panties all over the daddy Trump mentions. Saying everyone has 'TDS'. Lmao\n\nFucking hypocrite.\n\nEither all past Presidents are fair game or none of them are.",
"They are pop, not punk.",
"I consider them straight up pop music.",

"That was the funniest part! And they still didn't catch on lol.",
"Unintentionally doing the Lord’s work. We’ll make sure that’s on your permanent record.",
"Pop-punk, still punk",
"🤌 magnificent",
"Never said I was the one down voting, you're earning those all by yourself from the others in this thread. I'm definitely rolling my eyes though. Is your punk worldview really so fragile that it can't handle a popular band falling under the broad umbrella? Every music genre has subgenres, and not every band that falls under any given genre is immediately identifiable with every other band that falls under it. Is there a problem with both Reel Big Fish and Streetlight Manifesto being considered ska? Are you going to exclude skate punk too? Or is it just pop punk you're not willing to recognize? There are a lot of bands way more poppy than Blink that find themselves under the pop punk label. It's your prerogative if you want to condescend to the masses with your niche opinion, but the only ones who are going to agree with you are the others that are already gatekeeping along with you. Rail against the idea all you want, the large majority of music fans are going to keep on viewing Blink as a punk band; pop punk for sure, but still punk.",

"Hey leave your mom out of this.",

"Ska also has a lot of reggae vibes. A lot of upstroked guitar chords (a skank) in ska vs fast downstroked guitar powerchords in punk.",
"I consider it pop... not pop-punk, so no, not punk.",
"They were on MTV like every day back then and had tons of radio play. They were straight up pop music.",
"What’s with the gatekeeping? It’s widely accepted that bands like Blink-182, Good Charlotte, etc are characterized as pop-punk which is a sub genre of punk music. One of their most popular songs, Anthem Part 2, has an anti-establishment message which is one of the core aspects of punk music.\n\nI’m just sort of baffled about picking this hill to die on lol",
"I dunno. To me, emo bands always sound like whiny douchebags who just got told their grades weren't good enough and they can't use the car this weekend.",
"Well, that's good, Charlotte.",
"You're the one picking a hill to die on... I'm just stating my opinion, no one is forcing you to argue with me. \n\nPop-punk is overly produced, sounds nothing like punk music and is played all over popular media. Anti-establishment? Lmao... literally played all over the radio and MTV while they also took part in MTV type realty shows. \n\n>pop-punk which is a sub genre of punk music\n\nNo, pop-punk is a sub genre of pop music... not punk music. Pop punk has absolutely nothing to do with punk in my opinion.",
"lol okay dude. You’re saying it’s subjective, but you also started this by saying someone was wrong about it so I guess just think what you wanna think :)",
"No, I didn't call anyone wrong... care to try again?",
"Christmas vacation dude. Lots of memorable and useful real life retorts. Plus I can’t steal the heat from the writers. It’s just good stuff",
"THE BLESSING",
"They're both terrible choices. Anyone who's attached to one or the other just because they feel it's a game and their corrupt sports team has to win needs to wake the fuck up.",
"As an American, yes. Yes we are that stupid. That's what happens with a two party system. It's not the welfare of the citizens, it's either my team wins or it loses and I'm going to leave the stadium setting fires in trash cans. Hell I'll probably flip a taxi if my team wins the right game too. This competitive spirit and defensiveness is ingrained into us throughout every aspect of our lives.\n\nEdit: obligatory fuck Kyle Bush/show me your butthole",
"Speaking of echo chambers, I lasted less than a week in r/conservative. I was banned for having the audacity of criticizing Ted Cruz. I guess its not just the rest of reddit that's full of snowflakes.",
"I absolutely loathe this \"if you aren't with us, you're against us\" mentality that has taken over. The same people that bitch about \"EnLigTened CeNtriSt\" are like this, where being nuanced and weighing out options and arguments is a bad thing. Being a centrist is a good thing, dipshits. It means you're willing to consider people's viewpoints while still being able to not blindly agree along party lines.\n\nAnd, for the sake of honesty, the only reason why I singled out Americans was because this was a Biden/Trump thing. I don't think Americans are alone when it comes to blind Trump support/dissent, and they're definitely not the only ones that buy into the \"us or them\" mentality.\n\nI'm just so tired of it and I'm worried it'll take something drastic to get people to stop being so fucking stupid."

"the best video on the internet",
"Remember many years ago when you could set up your Google homepage with widgets of your choice, and one was a random \"fact of the day\"? \n\nWell, a day or two after my husband returned from his annual turkey hunting trip, he had an extremely vivid nightmare that some ginormous, and apparently deranged, wild turkey was chasing him relentessly through the forest. I woke up to him thrashing around and completely covered in sweat, so of course I woke him up as gently as possible. The fear in his eyes was so genuine that I was really concerned...\n\nAnd then he started to describe his nightmare (while clearly still in panic-mode), but all I could do was laugh, and laugh, and laugh, and then he was laughing too. I mean the image of my goofy husband running at top speed through the woods in full camo, carrying all his gear, with a wild turkey in full strut hot on his tail...If only I could paint the image that is still burned in my head...I am laughing as I write this. \n\nAnyway, a few days later, the Fact of the Day widgit informed me that \"Wild Turkey can run at speeds of up to 23.5 mph\". The look on my guy's face when I relayed that factoid was priceless. I could almost see him reliving that bizarre nightmare in slo-mo, calculating his chances for survival... \n\nSo naturally, I have to remind him of that random fact, each and every Thanksgiving! And tbh, I might be off on the exact mph, but that random, opportune factoid, coupled with the memory of that bizarre nightmare still gives him chills that turn into belly laughs for both of us, so I'm definitely sticking to it! :)",

"Nevertheless, humans are capable of it.",
"This sounds like some bullshit. The goat could've just not done it. Why didn't it attack the chicken? It protects the pack, breaks the fight up does it feel bad for the chicken? Does it just hate commotion? Well I guarantee it didn't like this falcon a bit. You could easily say the same thing about people. Shitheads on reddit downvote and upvote just on their sheer feeling about something, rather than actual facts, is that intelligent? No, it's pack animal ape behaviour\n\nWe're nothing special. Animals are much smarter than we give them credit for.\n\nMy cat brought a young starling inside and played with it once, I had to chase it. ended up killing it just in case.\n\nOne day I heard an unusal bird land outside my door, it was just different. Mama starling was having a look at the crime scene. She was huge, never seen one that large. I realized this damn bird knew more about me than I knew it knew. Some people don't own empathy by the way, can still function in society.\n\nYou give yourself too much credit on this one.",
"Humans do a lot of things that no other animal does or ever has. \n \nAn animal capable of showing emotions that on the surface look like empathy can all of a sudden attack unprovoked or even kill.

Bears don't protect their cubs because they have empathy or love, they protect them because of their instincts. \n \nThey are animals, not humans.",
"A bear mother that protects her cubs from a predator might one day just eat the cubs herself (they do that quite often) when there isn't enough food around. They do that without any hesitation or consideration to what it feels like to the cubs. \n \nAnimals don't protect others because of empathy or love. Any animal that shows emotions that on the surface looks like empathy can still attack you completely unprovoked...even if you have raised that animal from day one yourself. \n\nReal life isn't a Disney movie.",

"zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz",
"I found it boring but also very interesting because really… We should know about how these things work. This is like driving a car & not knowing the basic mechanics of how a vehicle operates. IMO I operate / interact with things better the more I know about/how it works. I’ve always made presumptions about how a computer mouse operates. I have never actually looked it up or been taught etc. how a mouse works so I thought it was worth watching.",
"You can tell by the way it is",
"I understood it but can't explain it",
"Well, I could have done without them calling the old ball mice prehistoric, I know I'm old now but geez. The first optical mice were game changers. No more cleaning the gunk off those damn sensor wheels",
"It’s mind boggling that such advanced tech exists in a $10 mouse.",
"OKAY now it makes sense why my mouse starts acting up when the sun hits the surface beneath it! Funnily enough, I have the same mouse in the video (the G502 Hero)",
"when i saw the title, for some reason my mind instantly went to the old ball mice from like the 486 and early pentium days. i was like well duh, they have little rollers that spin and sends signals.",
"This is essentially why i could never be a teacher.",
"Cleaning that gunk of was soooo satisfying though!",
"The end result yeah, but then there were those parts that retracted when you pushed them in and it was, \"haha missed me\" every pass. 🤬",
"That's why you get a trackball. Feeling bored, just pop the ball out of the socket and give it a good shine.",
"I had an interesting discovery about computer mice when I took mine apart to clean all the fluff out of it. After reassembling it, and successfully testing it, I found I was left over with a small metal spring of about 10mm. So if you are ever cleaning a computer mouse out and you find a small metal spring, just remove it and throw it away, because AFAIK it doesn't serve any purpose whatsoever.",
"The most interesting (and least explained) is the cross-correlation algorithm. \n\nIt doesn't explain how the second picture gets shifted around. Does it do all the possible X and Y movement comparisons? Just 20 plus or minus in each direction means 40x40=1600 comparisons to be calculated and stored, and must happen super quickly. And how does it get the extra 40 pixels beyond the image perimeter? And what if the surface is uniform and there are multiple low delta results among the 1600 comparisons? \n\nI wish that would have been explained.",
"Ball mice felt prehistoric as soon as optical mice came around. At least, that's how I remember the transition.",
"Good questions. Cross correlation does check every position for the shifted image! It's a costly operation but it's usually done by specialized hardware that can do many things at the same time (the dsp). For the extra stuff outside the image, usually a value of 0 is used.\nEdit: if there are multiple points that look good (with small differences), there's still probably one that's better. In the unlikely case of a tie, I guess it's implementation dependent. Something like the first one or the last one found.",
"It is also sped up significantly by using previous information. Most movement that a mouse does is relatively continuous. \n\nSo the mouse can always start the search in the same location as the last \"match\" was found.",
"It knows where it is because it knows where it isn't.",
"the little ball inside. duh"

"Awesome, thanks for sharing",
"Her first couple of albums are brilliant, I highly recommend listening to them.",
"Any specific tracks you'd recommend first?",
"[Super clean version](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DkYPge6ZKSQ)\n\n[Modern Cover by two german bands](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5r3B7yz6J68)\n\n[The DNA version everyone knows](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4jtIDaeaWI)",
"I had a quick look online and couldn't see her name [on the Toms Restaurant menu.](https://order.online/store/TomsRestaurant-177261/en-US/?hideModal=true&pickup=true&utm_source=dd-partner-link) correctly spelled or miss-spelled.",
"I would guess that there's a blurb about her song and its connection to the restaurant on the printed menu. The online menu wouldn't have her name unless they named a sandwich after her or something.",
"Knight Moves and Marlene on the Wall",
"Holy shit that German version sucks. What in the everloving fuck is going on there?",
"I also recommend sampling a variety of her music beyond the first two. For example, In Liverpool off 99.9F°, Widow's Walk off Songs in Red and Gray, or Frank & Ava off Beauty & Crime.\n\nPersonally, I have my favorites, and there are songs that I would not intentionally click on to listen to, but definitely none I hate.",
"I would also add Solitude Standing, the title track off her second album, and In the Eye. Luka was a huge hit off that album, in retrospect maybe suffers a little bit from the 1980s production values, but her lyrics are still absolute brilliance",
"Song about nothing, about the diner which appears in Seinfeld, a show about nothing. 👀",
"I mean it isn't that bad, kind of a throwback to the...*oh god what in the everloving hell who thought it was a good idea to give that man a microphone?*",
"Very nihilistic view.",
"As opposed to which explanation exactly? Was there another post of someone trying to break it down?",
"I love those suggestions thank you so much. I was enchanted with her sound on these two tracks... it made me think \"this sounds like a huge possible influence of Ani DiFranco\", another female songwriter I love.\n\nSure enough, this fun article from '89 mentions the same in the second paragraph.\n\nhttps://buffalonews.com/news/young-folk-singer-ani-difranco-takes-her-shot-at-the-big-time/article_e789482c-9ce9-5d13-8930-f38e79e9b732.html\n\nThank you again, she has a style I probably wouldn't have guessed beyond being only familiar with Tom's Diner.",
"Thanks for the suggestions, I've become a few-decades late Vegafan :)",
"I used to work in a well-known nightclub in Paris and let me tell you, nothing slaps like the bass in this remix. It sounds incredible on a good system.",
"This kind of sent me down journey too. Another recommendation is \"Small blue Thing\".",
"That's a deli thing in New York. Tom's Restaurant is more of a diner.",
"how is it not mentioned in this entire thread or even the video or interview that this is the diner featured in Seinfeld? Especially with the phrase \"song about nothing\" thrown in there?"

"That’s elitist white people humor. I didn’t get it.",
"Don’t you love how people like to lump anti-forced vaccination in to the anti-vax camp?",
"It sucks that it has to happen but clearly people cannot be depended upon to do it themselves. Besides public schools, the military and many professions have a laundry list of vaccines that are required for participants. It’s only now that the right half of the political system decided to make the vaccine a political issue have otherwise rational people gotten silly",

Did they protest the stores? \n\nMy wife is an RN. She was required to have multiple Vax before she could be hired. All the staff did. All of sudden it was a big issue.

"You are the literal embodiment of the video OP posted lmao",
"...did you actually read and comprehend those articles or are you just enjoying spreading antivax propaganda?\n\nA quarantine facility is not \"rounding people up and throwing them into concentration camps\" and requiring people to be vaxxed to participate in social and sporting activities is not \"Places in Europe won't let you leave your home without your vaccine papers\"\n\nYou are either wilfully twisting facts for your own agenda or you're a fucking idiot incapable of critical thinking.\n\nI'm going with both.",
"So we agree on the facts, but you disagree on the interpretation. \n\nThey told the native Americans going to the reservations was for their own good. \n\nThey told the Jews going to the camps was for their own good.\n\nThey told the Japanese going to the camps was for their own good. \n\nThey told the Kulaks going to the camps was for their own good. \n\nOver and over in history we’re told that people with a specific trait going to camps is for their own good, but we’ve learned that’s bullshit. \n\nAustralia arrested a man who was quarantining in a hotel room. They’ve put the people of Australia on a 5km chain around their homes. It is not a leap in logic to cal these camps what they are considering they’re all over Australia. I just linked you a story talking about a specific one. \n\nAs to the Italy thing, you don’t have your pass when you go to work you’re sent home with a fine. They’re expanding policy to cover just about everything. What happens if you refuse to pay the fine? Do you honestly think they’re just let it go?\n\nYou are way too smart to be this naive my friend.",

He did a great breakdance recovery (closest description I can think of) and kept pace with everyone. You couldn't make up how comical it was. Our eyes accidentally (tis London) met and I grinned. Empty stare back. Not even a tut, eye-roll and/or accusatory look at said banana peel. \n\nIt wouldn't have been an empty stare in Manchester. It wouldn't in Sydney. Two other large cities I have lived in. \n\nCoincidentally I was chatting with my (English) cousin's Irish wife about this very thing, people being standoffish in the SE of UK, at another cousin's wedding the week before (the reason I was in the UK to begin with). She struggles with it.",

"Ahoy boys, happy birthday Andy",
"I think Waltz is probably used to it. The guy has spent a LOT of time with Quentin Tarantino…",
"But never right angles!",
"😂😂😂",
"I had a German friend try to make a mom joke once.\n\nHis first try \"your mom is fat\"\n\n2nd try. \"your mother is so fat, I had to rent a motor bike to go around\"\n\n3rd try. \"your mother is so fat I ran out of fuel half way around\"",
"More people of African descent on the planet than in Africa too but the entire planet doesn't walk around saying they're African",
"Yeah. US nomenclature is pretty dumb sometimes.",
"I know. I'm southern myself and I know what you're talking about. Don't go comparing us to the Germans though, if you please. That is all I ask. And yes, the previous two sentences are tongue in cheek.",

"well we're talking about a conversation in the US on American TV discussing the use of language by an American comedian -- why would we be using a British dictionary?",
"and in English Irish can mean people of Irish descent and ethnic tradition, just how it is. What point are you trying to make?",
"[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6az6J38--I](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_4sKTgncbQ)\n\nHenning Wehn (German comic) Skip to 1:10\n\n\"The British say 'German's don't have a sense of humor', I don't find that very funny\"",

"I studied German for about 8 years. Austrian german is so much bouncier than German german. Austrians always sounded like cartoon characters. Lovely people, gorgeous country. But they sound a little silly, if I honest.",
"Newfoundland, land of large dogs.",
"In fairness, Conan had to dig some entertainment value out of that awkward comment. I think he did the best that could have been done. Unless you were interested in the fact that they were wearing somewhat similar color shirts.",
"Everytime there is anything regarding german humor posted on any sub, the same two stupid \"jokes\" appear in the comments. Really shows we don't have any sense of humor.",
"Legally Irish is the original British film that was later remade into Legally Blonde.",
">\"I'm X-ish\" in the US, it is understood to mean, \"My family is primarily of X-ish heritage.\"\n\nDo people outside the USA also commonly do this?\n\nI imagine it would be annoying to people who consider X-ish to be their nationality--akin to cultural appropriation--out of fear that due to US cultural dominance, third parties might assume all people of X-ish heritage--including those still in the home country--to be whatever the US stereotypes is.",
"Guess we're all African then",
"Bc you are done there. No one owes you a smile or any shit. Take your purchases and fuck off, ppl got shit to do.",

"There's more people of African descent in the world than there is in Africa",
"I have every confidence there were in fact 150 Yorkshiremen living in a shoebox 'n the middl'o'theroad.",
"Hitler actually was a German citizen when he became the chancellor and kick-started the whole shitshow that was WW2.",
"Let's see if I can make my point clearer!\n\nWhen someone from Europe says \"I'm German,\" they are staking a claim: that of belonging to the nation of Germany. Do racists sometimes deny this claim on the basis of ethnicity? Absolutely, which is why your footballer is German when he wins and Turkish when he loses. But what's being denied him is \"membership of the German nation.\"\n\nSo when a German-American says \"I'm German!\" what Europeans hear is \"I'm a German national\". To which the instant and visceral reaction is - of course! - \"Lol, no, you're not.\"\n\nTo Americans, this reaction is baffling, because what they are claiming is *ethnicity*, not nationality.",
"Interesting accent you have there…New Jersey?",
"My point was more that if Conan had given him a moment to speak here and there it’s likely we would have gotten something more eloquent than “blue, blue”. It’s really more to do with how these interviews are already loosely scripted, and Conan was just awkward in this case in moving the conversation to the anecdote they planned to talk about.",
"To be fair this was 2011 and Christoph English was not the best.",
"Conan is not Irish",
"i know exactly what point you're trying to make. restating it doesn't make it any less unrealistic. \n\nit's not just a blatantly racist fringe that asks questions like *where are you really from?* lots of people do it without even thinking twice about it. same goes for using terms like \"bio-deutsche\" or \"deutsche kartoffel\".\n\nyou might *say* you dont like it when americans say \"im irish\" or \"im german\" but as soon as it's somebody famous, europeans have no problem saying \"levi strauss was german\" or \"jfk and biden are irish\".",
">europeans have no problem saying \"levi strauss was german\" or \"jfk and biden are irish\".\n\nI'd have no problem saying that someone who was born in a country, grew up in it, and spoke its language as his first language, was of that country, no. But neither JFK nor Biden are Irish, that's a ridiculous claim.\n\nI can't help but feel that you are reading my comments in very bad faith, however. My aim was to try to help the American I responded to understand why Europeans tend to take it badly when Americans say they are \\[whatever\\], rather than simply say they are american.",
"Yeah I'm sure that's what they think too, which makes them assholes with no manners, they're not even more efficient, they're just dicks acting like selling something is them making you a favour. Abhorrent culture.",
"To racist bigots sure.",
"I honestly had to turn the video off because it's all Conan just talking non-stop. I can't even imagine how tiring this is for a guest to deal wtih, no wonder he interrupted him with the most plain statement as possible to try to cut through all the verbal diarrhea.",
"lmfao how butthurt are you to say something like this",
"Both of my parents were born in India, but I was born in the US. What does that make me? And what would that make my children?",
"USA thing I guess. Everybody there is living through their ancestors heritage or skin colour.",
"Give it up for Christoph Waltz -> one of the best actors who speaks multiple languages on stage fluently with excellent acting skills simultaneously",
"What does your passport say?",
"Same thing my grandmother's says, American, but she lived in India for 50 years before moving here -- does that count for nothing? Millennia of ancestry wiped out by a plane ticket?",
"Don't even bother dude. u/EntropyKC just takes offense with how Americans talk among themselves. I'd have you pegged as an Indian American for all intents and purposes. A coworker of mine is in the same boat as you as his folks are ethnically Gujarati so he uses \"Gujarati American\".",
"IDK if that came before him, but if you're going to quote Hitchens, credit the man!",
"Yeah it's weird how some redditers just look for any way to rag on Americans to the point where it makes no sense",
"I wrote there's nothing wrong with being American, you guys are the ones who insist on being called something else...",
"Yeah because I'm not just American. I speak Hindi, I cook Indian food, and I have a strong connection with my ancestry. I'm Indian and I'm American, at the same time, and if you can't wrap your head around that then I'm sorry for you.",
"Well that's different isn't it? The vast majority of people who claim to be Indian in America will be at best 2nd generation immigrants, and more often than not they will be 3rd or later generation with probably <50% Indian genetics who don't speak any Indian language nor will they have ever been to India.\n\nThe same will apply to all the Americans who claim to be Irish, Italian and Scottish - which seem to be the only European nationalities Americans claim to have.\n\nOut of interest, do you have an Indian passport as well? If not, why not?",
"Because I've never lived in India... Also India doesn't allow dual-citizenship so I wouldn't be able to hold a US passport if I did. Even my family that immigrated no longer hold Indian passports."

"Shameless plug for [Clickspring's reproduction of the Antikythera Mechanism](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZioPDnFPNsHnyxfygxA0to4RXv4_jDU2)\n\nIt really is a fascinating historical object.",
"Great video series too. Also totally debunks the myth that this was just too complicated for ancient engineering.",
"Its insane the precision he can get but just handmade files and a wooden vice. I was especially impressed by the Scorper and trammel video and how he can make precise round cuts on a flat piece of the bronze stock.",
"> couldn't this be part of the art too?\n\nWhy would a piece of art have a perfectly functional gearing mechanism that tracks the movements of Sun and Moon? \n\n> Historians should be cautious not to interpret this as if our ancestors traveled to other planets before NASA did. \n\nNo historian interprets it that way.",
"I doubt that very much lol. They've determined that it was a functional piece of equipment. A prop for a play wouldn't be an intricate device like this with many inner parts. There's really no reason to believe that.",
"I think the most impressive part is always the final polish, and all the attention to detail on even the smallest screws.",
"Tell me you know nothing of archaeology without saying anything meaningful.",
"Lmao, someone's sore.",
"You raised my hopes that he'd uploaded a new video :(",
"> Tell me you know nothing of archaeology without saying anything meaningful.",
"I need you to understand something. This was built in 87 BC. It is obviously a very sophisticated time telling device. A watch of sorts. \n\nWhen this was built the person or people who built it were not interested in “machine art” or “hoaxes” this would’ve taken skilled workers a decent amount of time to make. They wouldn’t waste their already short lives and limited resources making this if it had no use. \n\nThis is now kept National Archaeological Museum in Greece and has been studied and replicated multiple times. \n\nThis isn’t art. This isn’t a hoax. This was a complicated machine that history and time forgot.",
"You're comparing a 1902 movie to an 100BC actual artefact. Hardly the same thing.\n\nPeople have been charting astronomy since time immemorial. Why is it so hard to believe that this Antikythera mechanism was a device for this purpose? It's a highly unusual find. Something so precise for that time period, but isn't that what archaeology is about? It may well just be the only example, or only discovered example of such a device.\n\nThe available evidence suggests it was astromical in nature.\n\nMaybe try stop being so defensive and judgemental and a bit more open minded.",
"> What's the proof it was ever functional? Nobody knows.\n\nYes we know; it has been reproduced. \n\n> Take a look at this science fiction film from 1902 about flying to the moon. \n\nIf you reproduce that rocket it will not fly.",
"This comment is so obtuse it hurts.",
"*I feel* that you are a big dumb dumb with poo for a head.",
"> The researchers found those ancient Greece people's Twitter posts too?\n\nSo let me tell you about this wonderful thing called writing…",
"Dude shut up. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. This is sad.",
"what a strange hill to die on",
"Plot twist: Its the Time Dial for a bronze time machine.",
"Do you understand how ancient history works? \n\nI’m just overall confused as to what you are trying to Imply? We can understand some day to day activities of a Sumerian man, but some thousand years after that you think historians don’t have an idea of what’s going on?",
"I absolutely love this kind of stuff. Some random discovery at the bottom of the ocean and hundreds of years of history is thrown into question.",
"It shows how very little human intelligence has change over all these millennia. They were as capable then, as we are now. All that separates us from them is our accumulated and passed down knowledge. The moment somethings hinders that handing down of the previous generations information to the new one, you force future generations to start over.\n\nImagine how much further humans would be technologically, if we were handed down all this information from their era unhindered right up until now without having to restart so many times. All the wars and conflicts, countries not sharing technology outside their borders before collapsing, the dark ages, etc etc... it all really held us back so far. We had to restart from scratch so many times. \n\nIt also demonstrates how is it would be for us to lose it all again.",
"man, this is by far one of the saddest things that i've seen on reddit in a while\n\nplease, keep going",
"It's a self-regulating mechanism. Universal balance in action.",
"Can't wait until Clickspring finishes his.",
"\"shouldnt exist\" as in \"scientists who know about this sort of thing are not remotely suprised it exists\"",
"Yep. The kinds of mechanisms in the antikythera mechanism were not common (they were excruciatingly expensive in those days) but by no means beyond the capability of the day's mathematics.\n\nSurmising the antikythera mechanism was \"Greek computing\" is a bit like standing around in the year 4,000 saying Millennials commuted in superyachts and routinely went into orbit.",
"Are you mentally unwell? Literally every single person who has read your posts thinks you are a complete moron...",
"Yeah, it's pretty scary how much information could have been lost in the burning of the library of Alexandria.",
"It has been estimated that at one time the Library of Alexandria held over half a million documents from Assyria, Greece, Persia, Egypt, India and many other nations. \n\nBut the idea that the loss of the Great Library set back science and technology by centuries is a nice fable, but not a viable historical idea. The Greeks and Romans were not on the verge of a scientific and technological revolution such as the one seen in the early Modern era - that required a number of unique circumstances which were simply not present in the Roman Era.",
"These never surprise me. Humans gravitate towards coastline where they build civilizations. We've been around for 200,000 to 300,000 years. 90,000 years since our population bottleneck. You go back just 20,000 years and sea levels were over 400ft lower than today. Dollars to donuts most of our history was wiped out by the sea.",
"Science was held back by metallurgy until about 300 years ago.",
"Like /u/spade7891 this is largely a modern myth that's been around a few decades (my HS history teacher repeated it back in the 90s) but isn't really substantiated. The library of Alexandria's collection, like modern libraries, were copies of other copies that were shared around and transcribed from other libraries and collections of the period. \n\nChances are whatever was burned there existed elsewhere and as a result its unlikely that its loss affected humanity's technological progress, which is kind of silly when you think about it; technology isn't this tangible object that can be defined objectively, it's a very abstract phenomenon that even calamities like the [Black Death](https://courses.lumenlearning.com/atd-herkimer-westerncivilization/chapter/the-black-death/) didn't negatively impact, if anything it spurred innovation in labor-saving devices as well as spurring the end of feudalism in Western Europe.",
"He uploaded a \"Fragments\" video 2 months ago after a silence of 9 months.",
"except it can and used things available to us at the time and just tracked the stars moon etc but we still needed to calibrate it. So it's nothing to crazy",
"Bro, you talk like and use the logic of Trumpers. \n\nDon't trust the scientists, don't trust the results of populist systems and everyone is against you because only you can see the truth. \n\nlol k."

"A little research on [https://ozonewatch.gsfc.nasa.gov/monthly/SH.html](https://ozonewatch.gsfc.nasa.gov/monthly/SH.html) and you will see that the Ozone is no better off today than it was when we \"took action\" in the 80's. The only difference is, it isn't exposing over parts of Australia.",
"And that's why interdiction and reglementation is more powerfull than market based solutions and \"self regulation\"...",
"If you watched the video you'd know that these chemicals can last in the air up to 150 years and the stagnation of the hole where it stopped majorly growing was the huge win. Around 2010 it started actually shrinking and by 2065 it is expected to be recovered completely.",
"Reglementation?",
"Its a perfectly cromulant use of that word.",
"French for legislation",
"can someone condense",
"TLDW: We dont hear about the Ozone layer anymore because we solved the main reason why it was depleting. \n\n\nWe used CFCs in alot of our products and this caused a harmful chemical reaction in the ozone layer. The world took action together to replace CFCs with something else in our products so now the Ozone Layer is in a better place. The solution was relatively easy and took about a year to remove a good majority of CFCs from our products",
"Regulation would be the appropriate word in English.",
"and a little more research will show that the \"ozone hole\" is a very long term problem. one that is getting better, not worse. thanks to that cfc ban.",

"The ozone is evil",
"30 years with minimal improvement to worse again... hmm... and they say lets add 40 more, that will be sure to work.\n\nYou don't have to take my word for it... Take a look yourself, and ask why VOX didn't show this in their video: [https://ozonewatch.gsfc.nasa.gov/monthly/SH.html](https://ozonewatch.gsfc.nasa.gov/monthly/SH.html)",

"It’s… wow. Maybe things can get better ❤️🩹…",
"This was before counter-disinformation was so easily monetized. Today there would be a substantial, highly profitable, disinformation 'industry' effectively campaigning against the researchers who identified the ozone depletion problem and what needed to be done about it. Look at how Dr. Fauchi and and others have been attacked during COVID-19. Not because the people attacking Dr Fauchi are right, but mainly because there's big money to be made by preaching total bullsh--t to people willing to read/look at it.",
"Are you suggesting that the Ozone layer was never in danger? The answer is actually that we figured out what was causing it, and took action and it is no longer at the same risk as it was in the 80s. It also has been replaced with Climate Change as the more immediate emergency.",

The only product I remember hearing complaints about were inhalers but I never had an old one. My current one seems to work but I was told the old ones worked better.",
"Could filling the hole make it warmer?",
"> ask why VOX didn't show this in their video\n\nThey did, the graph at 6m40s matches the data from the site you linked, which isn't surprising since they cite NASA as their source. It looks like they didn't include the 2020/2021 datapoints, but even if you include them it shows a downward trend.",
"[There’s a good moment on QI about the guy who invented CFCs](https://youtu.be/gZAnnvSOEmw).",
"No. If anything an ozone hole means [more UV rays](https://climate.nasa.gov/faq/15/is-the-ozone-hole-causing-climate-change/), especially UVB rays. The ozone is located in the stratosphere, which famously [gets warmer at the top](https://climate.nasa.gov/news/2919/earths-atmosphere-a-multi-layered-cake/) due to the increases in UV radiation that is not blocked by the ozone.\n\nIn fact, climate change deniers have tried to claim (among other nonsensical pseudoscientific claims) that the increase in global temperature was due to the ozone hole. That's the reason for the first NASA article I linked to: explaining that there was a warming effect, but that it was insignificant compared to other factors like emissions.",
"Well the Ozone layer is fake news because the earth is flat, there is no antarctica, it's just an ice wall.",
"Well that is just morbidly obese",
"Unfortunately, the Climate Change problem is much more complicated than the ozone problem. This was a relatively easy fix that all Nations could jump on, but Climate Change pivots directly from building a economy (Fuel, foresting, mining and more). This is why there is a focus on cleaner energy.",
"Wait, I thought we weren't actually supposed to solve problems",
"You would think that, right?!",
"> And that's why interdiction and reglementation is more powerfull than market based solutions \n\nWhat gave you that impression? The most glaring confounder here is that ozone hole is relatively simple to solve, whereas co2 is basically intertwined with any industrial activity.",
"This video itself is globalist propaganda. Energy companies and manufacturers have been lying their asses off for decades. They're currently trying to greenwash their image so they float happy little videos like this to convince the public that they're serious about making changes.",
"What? This is literally a word for word copy of the 5th top YouTube comment made days before your own.",
"Thank you for answering my question!",
"Did you seriously just use a thesaurus to sound smarter when saying prohibition and regulation?",
"Yep. In OP's defense, they seem to mostly speak French. Their English is a lot better than my French.\n\nBut it's also weird that they used the word regulation later in their post.",
"Sandi is great but QI just isn't the same without Stephen :(",
"I sure hope not. We kinda need it.",
".",
"It's a karma farming bot. All of his comments are ripped from Youtube comment sections.\n\nGood lookin' out.",
"Humanity will readily band together to overcome a global problem... if and only if the solution is convenient and inexpensive or profitable. (fwiw renewable energy is the next great solution, if we don't fuck each other up before the world tips back cooler)",
"I have now learned of neologisms, and that embiggen and cromulent are such.",
"While disinformation wasn't as easily accessible, it was still prevalent in the CFC debate (and moreso in the lead debate), for a different purpose. While politically-motivated disinformation is the flavour of the month in the social media age, in the 70s, 80s, 90s it was corporate-motivated disinformation. You're a scientist and you think something's bad? Well we can pay 10 scientists to find some good things, and using our connections and influence, ensure they're able to be heard by more people than you. Essentially the lead debate and how industry was able to stifle Dr Clair Patterson for so long gave them the blueprint for rebelling against CFCs, climate change, obesity, and so on. The aim is not to prevent things from being regulated; as they know eventually they will, the aim is to *delay* it.",
"Antarctica is the name of the ice wall that protects us from the white walkers.",
"The older ones... Were amazing",
"So my mom tells me. I'm new to asthma (got my inhaler right as Covid hit the world so that's been fun getting used to.)",
"There was ozone disinfo galore back in the day, right along the same lines as that you hear about global warming. Disinfo was harder to disseminate back then, though Rush Limbaugh did his level best, and the ozone problem was ultimately solved almost painlessly for the general public.",
"im curious as to how this shows anything related to video, it just shows that there is currently a hole, and the shape of it during the days of november...I think we all knew there was still a hole.",
"Not true. CFCs were better than alternatives at the time.",
"Sadly the ozone layer is now under threat from global warming. As the surface temperature of the planet rises the upper stratosphere cools. As a result, over the poles ice crystals attract chlorine molecules the when released destroy ozone. That is why we are now observing a record hole over the Arctic.\n\nhttps://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/we-may-finally-know-what-caused-that-huge-ozone-hole-in-the-arctic-last-year/ar-AAOGp4o\n\nhttps://www.ucsusa.org/resources/ozone-hole-and-global-warming\n\nhttps://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/blogs/climateqa/are-the-ozone-hole-and-global-warming-related/",
"what happened was it wasn't political then. neither side pointed fingers with a \"AH-HA gotcha!\" counter.",
"Market based solutions are a form of regulation, and they are incredibly effective. SO2 pollution was drastically reduced after a 1992 regulation created an emission permit market.\n https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FCJynT4XMAIACjQ?format=jpg&name=medium",
"If this problem was identified today, it would never be solved.",
"> counter-disinformation\n\nWhat",
"I have found it at least as entertaining with Sandi as host as with Stephen. Sandi is so knowledgeable, full on life and when she laughs it's with her whole body.",
"I was in the residential HVAC industry and actually still hold the cert to buy and sell refrigerants. I was still in the industry when R-22 had it's date for being phased out set. \n\nBy the time the date had been DECIDED on, Lenox was already producing systems with their \"Pureon\" or whatever safe sounding name their gave their new product. I do remember the main drawback of that product was that it was a mixture of multiple gasses. \n If you had a tiny leak, one of the two would leak out faster and so since you as the tech were unsure what the ratio of gas was in the mixture, you pumped all the gas out of that bitch and pumped fresh back in. With R-22 in a situation like that, you'd pump the refrigerant into the compressor, seal it, repair the hole, test it for leaks and then once the system had been pulled into a vacuum, you'd open the valves and reintroduce the refrigerant.\n\nSo on an R-22 system that leak would only cost you the tech's time to find it, fix it and get the system going again but on an R-410a system, the customer was buying all new refrigerant on top of the cost of the repair.",
"Fun fact, most pressurized aerosol cans are kept that way with butane or propane because they are cheap.",
"Which is why it was such a joke when the industry said HVAC contractors would go out of business. My dad's revenue did nothing but go up. Not like people, restaurants, factories, offices, etc were suddenly going to stop needing cooling.",
"That is kind of funny - maybe their keyboard autocorrected one and they just overlooked it",
"This was before the Right decided to up their game by going scorched Earth on *anything* the Left supported or was based on science and fact.\n\nIt’s like if a Liberal and a Conservative were trapped in a burning house and the Liberal was trying to get the door open so they could escape, but the Conservative was like “oh no, not on my watch” and was fighting the Liberal tooth and nail to keep them away from that door. You can’t reason with them or appeal to their own sense of self-preservation because the cult leaders tell them owning the Libz is more important than mere survival. Of course, the cult leaders have built what they believe to be a flame-proof box, insulated with all their money, so they’re just shouting commands through the door to their cult members that are willing to sacrifice themselves in the name of Trump.\n\nThey’re literally killing us all.",
"The thinner your hair becomes the more difficult it becomes to do the doo with gelatinous goo (hair wants to stick down flat to your scalp instead of stay 'fluffed'). So for some of us resist the razor types, a fine mist spray works better. And yes, ya'all welcome to read into that however you like with as many snarky replies as you like...in good fun :)",
"Thanks for sharing the expertise!",
"There'd be goddamn dipshits spraying hair spray into the air saying that the gubmint is making it up.",
"You are correct. Back then, the ignorant didnt have much of a voice, today they have facebook.",
"how did they hit different?",
"More force, and it felt like you got a lot more of the medicine. New ones are...anemic in comparison",
"Ooo dude, sorry that sucks. Soo many more people are getting asthma and allergies, its really a true epidemic that isn't getting near the attention it should be getting.",
"Thanks. Basically I have had bad allergies most of my life but outside of \"take Benedryl or suck it up\" I haven't really had any relief. Well it got so bad that I was wheezing a lot and my doctor was like, \"Yeah, you need an inhaler now. Congrats!\" \n\nNow I take Claritin D, have an air purifier and got rid of a lot of the things that were causing my wheezing.",
"At the same time strict reglementation limited the concentration authorized at the plants' exhaust. That's not a very good example to your theory. The emission CAP already forced companies to reduce their emissions of SO2 when the reg came into effect. The market of sulfur dioxyde, just helped smooth the transition for the industries.",
"There are a ton of rigorous empirical examples that emission markets and emission pricing work, you just haven't done your research. But here, let me throw that literature at you to see if it helps.\n\n- [Carbon pricing caused 80% of the CO2 emission decrease in the UK power sector, compared to a synthetic control](https://halshs.archives-ouvertes.fr/halshs-03265636/document)\n- [A carbon tax avoided the consumption of 2.4 million tons of gasoline in the agricultural sector in British Columbia](https://doi.org/10.1111/cjag.12048)\n- [A 18€/ton carbon tax reduced emissions by 6.2% over three years in the UK](https://www.econstor.eu/bitstream/10419/207139/1/1663457328.pdf)\n- [A carbon tax reduced the emissions of Sweden by 6.3% per year compared to a synthetic control](http://digamoo.free.fr/andersson19.pdf)\n- [A carbon tax reduced the emissions in the French manufacturing sector by 1%-5%](http://onala.free.fr/dussaux120.pdf)\n- [A carbon tax reduced the emissions of Sweden by 17.2% and Norway by 19.4% compared to a synthetic control of other nordic countries](http://uu.diva-portal.org/smash/record.jsf?pid=diva2%3A1121171&dswid=-6801)\n- [Increasing a carbon tax by 1€/ton reduces the per capita CO2 emissions by 11.58 ton (panel data with fixed effects)](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0301421519305427)\n- [A carbon tax reduced the emissions of Norway by 3%-4% (cross-sector comparison)](https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/BF02441400.pdf)\n- [A carbon tax reduced the growth rate of emissions of Finland by 1.7% (differences-in-differences)](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0301421511004502)\n- [UK plants subjected to a climate levy reduced their emissions between 8% and 22% compared to a control group of UK plants not subjected to the levy](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0047272714001078)\n- [A CO2 emissions trading system in Tokyo reduced the emissions of the city by 6.7% over three years](https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10018-020-00271-w)\n- [The EU emission market reduced all EU emissions by 10% (differences-in-differences)](http://applications.umons.ac.be/docnum/c7b423fd-d183-486c-9cec-966066b9b364/A48A87F6-2ABD-47EF-97DD-1C34207C2607/4819b016-en.pdf)\n- [The RGGI carbon market reduced the emissions by 19% compared to a control group of states not subjected to it](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0140988315002273)\n\nI could keep going, but the real question is, where did you get this weird idea that carbon markets and carbon pricing don't work well?"
