What's your opinion on eugenics? by detty in AskSaidIt

[–]Musky 9 insightful - 2 fun9 insightful - 1 fun10 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

I value the idea of selectively breeding humans to improve the race as long as it's done voluntarily, but at the same time I'm not so sure what we would select for would be ultimately beneficial, like the now much maligned Red Delicious apple that were selectively bred for decades to look better but unintentionally became horrible tasting.

Often people say they want to breed out things like drug addiction and mental instability... but would a world of normie NPCs really be an improvement? I'm pretty sure we wouldn't have most of our modern technology if we had been actively engaging in eugenics for the last 80 years.

Eddie had a low cost boat home before Janice that he could afford on his disability checks, even if he had to shit in a 5 gallon bucket.

Now he's homeless again and the only way he's going to be able to find a place is with roommates.

On the bright side, he's too busy or too dead to spam us.

Public facing subs aren't supposed to ban people on here unless they're breaking the main site rules. Now u/neolib said that isn't a rule, and frankly I don't care to check for how reliably the rules are enforced anyways, but it's at least a convention of the site.

Subs that want to have their own weird rules can't be on s/all.

This site, Saidit.net, has almost officially become as bad as Reddit with as many retarded far-rightists on here. by Mcheetah in Random_Shit

Is saidit just a place for a group of a few people to stand around and judge posts by others? I don't see much activity here, not to many posts and just a stale environment. by CivilWarrior in AskSaidIt

[–]Musky 5 insightful - 1 fun5 insightful - 0 fun6 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Alas poor Saidit, never before has there been a tale of more woe, not even of that underage slut Juliet and her pedo boyfriend Romeo.

Any time this site starts to get popular things go tits up. Drama, bad luck, bad actors, and bad management have kept it down.

We have had as many as 76k regular users (when the Ice Poseidon 2 community was banned and migrated here) and as few as 20-30, several times now, that frankly I didn't think the site was going to bounce back from.

There's a couple things working against the site at the moment: we have no dev, we have hardly any administration (which is a mixed blessing), few mods, spammers, Edward (although he's apparently too busy with his schizo girlfriend Janice rn to try and sabotage the site), being blacklisted on Reddit (apparently mentioning us will catch people a ban), and that goddamned Cloudflare check.

Still, there's probably at least 100 regular users at the moment. It's not dead, but it is very... cozy. We were just pushing 200-250 before the overzealous Cloudflare protections went up again and that was just a few weeks ago iirc. We can't seem to break that, and I wouldn't be surprised if we are targeted when we hit that meager threshold.

Although it's nice to have an idea who you're talking to instead of randoms all the time, and to know the same users for years, it's not great for conversation. I could probably tell you exactly how most people here feel about any given subject. A lot of us agree with each other, but it's disagreement that sparks more lively discussion. And probably nobody is ever going to change anyone here's mind so if you're debating, you're doing it for fun.

Personally I love this place. I'll be here until I die or the lights shut off. I've had a lot of wonderful memories, conversations, and met a lot of great people here.

We used to have lively conversations in chat that almost never ended. Cheers to schizo Weegs, the raccoon loving Phooey, the Santa looking Canadian revolutionary Jason Carswell, sexpot Mel, the flamboyantly homosexual co-founder D3, confused trans furry Vulptex, former drug bon vivant Zom, Usher who told everyone she was a dude forever, the people I am forgetting, and the people still there.

We never truly appreciate something till it's gone.

But yeah if you just got banned from Reddit and want this place to be similar, it's not. Learn to ban evade. SaidIt might grow on you if you stick around. A handful of people can really drive this place forward when the will to do so exists . Who knows, maybe we still haven't seen peak Saidit.

What supplements do you take? by Musky in AskSaidIt

[–]Musky[S] 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

I take 50,000 IUs of D2 once a week. I heard about the vitamin K being needed for the D to be utilized.

These two vitamins work synergistically to ensure that calcium obtained from food is deposited in the bones and not in the arteries. Vitamin D increases calcium levels in the body, while vitamin K helps the body use calcium by shuttling it to your bones. Taking vitamin D without enough vitamin K can cause an increase in calcium levels without the ability to use it effectively, which raises the risk of depositing calcium in arteries and soft tissue. Therefore, it is beneficial to take vitamin D3 and K2 together for optimal bone and cardiovascular health.

That's a little disturbing. At least vitamin K is in cheese. I do love cheese.

Don't bother with probiotics, your body is better at sorting out it's own gut biome.

I had noticed probiotics seem useless, although eating my own lactobacillus ferments seems useful for IBS.

And I know whole food vitamin sources are supposed to be better than junky multis but either the RDAs are full of shit or our food just isn't that nutritious anymore but you can't hit the RDA with whole foods and still consume a reasonable amount of food.

Have you noticed any benefits from vitamin E? I used to take it, at least the one form, but I never noticed a difference.

My garden update from today: I see a bell pepper! Two pepper plants survived the winter! by In-the-clouds in gardening

[–]Musky 3 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 0 fun4 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

My parents have a singular serrano plant left but it's a very productive plant, we have a hard time using up the harvests, and it's been alive at least three years now.

I have a serrano plant that's even older, but it's a tiny bonsai like plant. It's got 7 peppers and that's yuuuge for it.

And I'm trying to replace my Filipino pepper plant. That one must have been six years old before it died. That was sad, I loved that plant, but they live 3-9 years so I guess it was just its time. I don't know if this was normal but before it perished it did start putting out way more peppers than usual. A last gasp chance at propagating offspring perhaps.

So, they will eventually die, but you can definitely keep the same plants going for years.

I have read suggestions about pruning them way back before overwintering but I've never done it. And we don't exactly have proper winters.

If they ever revolt against humanity, it would cost us deerly.

I'm down with the gay rights movement so long as it's for ensuring that gay people don't need to deal with intrusions into their private life resulting in them losing their livelihoods and their ability to choose who they want to live with without government interference

That should be a human right.

There should be no special privileges or protected classes.

Everything is either a human right or it's nobody's right.

Those cats of mine were indoor cats too. I had no idea how they got them, the food is a possibility.

These are Nigerians where a lack of proper sanitation makes them more susceptible.

I took dewormer when my last pair of cats had persistent worms. I don't know if it was hypochonria or not, but worms crawling out of their butts freaked me the f out. The tests were always negative for parasites but I also recently found out the doctor wasn't using the proper protocol for testing.

Russia isn't invading or conquering Ukraine. Russia is devouring and absorbing Ukraine. by jerryk in WorldPolitics

What NATO still doesn't quite get, is that all they're doing by "helping" Ukraine, is hurting the Ukrainian people,

The US calls the shots, and I believe they know exactly what they're doing. It just isn't what they sold everyone on, which is fairly understandable as broadcasting your plans to your citizens broadcasts it to your enemies as well, and also because people are stupid and saying the war is for "democracy" is a good way to get public support.

Tying up Russia is important to keeping Chinese aggression in check, and I think it's fairly likely there's a backdoor deal to hand over Taiwan as soon as the US builds up our semiconductor industry. We saw Chinese saber rattling over Taiwan, and they quieted down when we devoted billions to domestic semiconductor manufacturing. That's obviously another thing that wouldn't be announced to the general public.

Now there's two hitches in that plan, One, do we really want to hand over Taiwan even if we do manage to build up similar chip making capacity domestically -- in case it needs saying, letting China have Taiwan before this happens is an existential threat to the US with only 2 solutions: bomb Taiwan's manufacturing sector ourselves, or start WW3, and that first option ain't great because China will still have an edge in that scenario.

Second hitch is that the US is likely never going to get domestic production up to what it needs to be fast enough to make China happy. Still, it buys us time to bullshit.

And it's important we don't strengthen China's position by allowing their biggest strategic ally to be unhampered by not having to kill hundreds of thousands of Ukranians.

We took an opportunity, a costly one, but I don't think it's a dumb decision at all. Lives may very well end up being saved in the long run.

Would China even had agreed to this hypothetical deal over Taiwan if their buddy Russia was available for a fight and they didn't have economic problems?
