It’s probably attempt suicide. There is generally an order of magnitude between attempt and commit. But I’m not downplaying how shitty it is tho.

They just interface with the shape of the mouth so well. Truly the best strawberry!

Your parents did right. Nobody wants the old Costanza wallet syndrome https://youtu.be/9sz2HDRJkUQ

You might be surprised to find out who the “one of you” is!

This is exactly it. Hurting things, destroying things, these are pleasurable behaviours. Look at how young children play, how we have to teach them to be gentle with animals until they can develop enough empathy to be trusted.

Empathy is what counterbalances the pleasure of sadism. If you feel bad you hurt something, that’s a pain that is much greater than the pleasure a normal person gains from sadism.

Some people, on purpose or by accident, have shitty empathy.

The idea of letting young engineers at a university design production equipment is WILD to me. Universities make PROTOTYPES. The gap between prototype and reliable production equipment is so big you could drive a bus through it.

A good production engineer is worth their weight in gold but when you have shitty ones you’re better off letting the workers run the ship. At least they know what’s happening and where the hangups are. You’ll know a good engineer because they’re down talking to the lead hands on the shop floor because they want to understand what’s actually happening and run ideas through the shop before they fuck with things.

I use duck duck go as well. I wish it wasn’t just anonymised Bing search. One of these days I’ll look into an open source independent search engine.
