Disappointing fact: Half of the "facts" here are nonsense. A nice idea for a thread has been wasted. :(

Fun disappointing fact: the main contributor to wasting the thread with un-facts is the OP.

About 3,500 gallons if water is needed to produce one pound of beef.

I wonder how much you need to make a McHorse burger?

O.J. Simpson was considered for the title role in ?The Terminator,? but producers feared he was ?too nice? to be taken seriously.

How many types are there? Migraines are the worst, right? Unless you've been hit in the face with a planet.

yeah, and it doesn't work n migraine type headaches.

other than that there'sa few physical based, stress based and such.

These chemicals calm pain, from a minor headache to arthritis or migraines, and with no secondary effects. Migraines also disappear because the pressure in the brain's blood vessels is lowered while we have sex.

I have no proof of this myself, I'm just pointing out what it says.

1. Racoons are the only animal with a bone in their penis.

2. Your heart stops for a millisecond when you sneeze.

3. Wearing headphones for just an hour will increase the bacteria in your ear by 700 times.

4. A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why.

5. Ethernet is a registered trademark of Xerox, Unix is a registered trademark of AT&T.

6. Bill Gates' first business was Traff-O-Data, a company that created machines which recorded the number of cars passing a given point on a road.

7. The original IBM-PCs, that had hard drives, referred to the hard drives as Winchester drives. This is due to the fact that the original Winchester drive had a model number of 3030. This is, of course, a Winchester firearm.

8. The duckbill platypus can store as many as six hundred worms in the pouches of its cheeks.

9. The Declaration of Independence was written on hemp paper. :woot:

10. A pig's orgasm lasts 30 minutes.

11. Black women have more orgasms than white women. (size doesn't matter.)

The average person expels flatulence 14 times each day.

Provided there is water, the average human could survive a month to two months without food depending on their body fat and other factors.

It cost 7 million dollars to build the Titanic and 200 million to make a film about it

OK had to check just to be sure so Ill post a direct quote

the $7.5 million US dollars Titanic cost to build in 1912 would be roughly equivalent to $174 million today.

Fun fact: I greatly contributed towards getting VMWare ESXi/Vsphere within Hyper-V working successfully! http://communities.v...tart=0&tstart=0

Both Hypervisors FTW!!

The male Argonaut squid produces sperm in a specially adapted penis which is then detached from the body to swim by itself to a suitable female, who will be automatically impregnated by the separated penis.

The male can only watch his sexual encounter as his disembodied apparatus makes its way solo and carries out the sex act for him.

Hopefully, he will have selected the right female, as it takes a long time to regrow a new detachable dingaling.

    • Hello, Were you using a product or service from one of the companies affected by the Klue data breach?  See https://klue.com/blog/an-update-on-recent-klue-security-incident for the company's public statement.  That blog post does not list affected customer. From looking around at reports, I created this list: Gong HackerOne Huntress Insurity Jamf LastPass OneTrust Recorded Future ReliaQuest Salesforce Snyk Sprout Social Tanium It is likely there are other companies affected as well.

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers by Karthik Mudaliar SpaceX reportedly wants to sell mobile phone plans directly to consumers in the United States as part of a wider expansion of Starlink. According to a report from the Financial Times, SpaceX president Gwynne Shotwell discussed the plan with investors during the company’s recent IPO roadshow. The company is also said to be considering building a terrestrial mobile network to complement Starlink’s satellite coverage. The plan is quite different from how Starlink currently operates in the U.S. mobile market. SpaceX already provides satellite connectivity for T-Mobile’s T-Satellite service, but T-Mobile remains responsible for the subscription, billing, and customer support. A Starlink-branded mobile service would give SpaceX control of the customer relationship instead. It could also turn the company from a partner of traditional mobile operators into a direct competitor. T-Mobile also began testing its Starlink-powered satellite service in early 2025. The beta was initially limited to text messaging and was also available to some AT&T and Verizon customers. The service has since expanded to support limited data access through selected apps, including WhatsApp, Google Maps, AccuWeather, and AllTrails. It is designed to provide a connection in areas where normal cell towers are unavailable, rather than replace a conventional mobile network. However, if SpaceX actually has a plan to serve nationwide, it needs to do more than just satellite networks and actually support on-ground operations. It can also partner up with existing carriers and become a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO). With that said, SpaceX has already spent heavily to support its mobile ambitions. Just last year, the company agreed to acquire wireless spectrum licences from EchoStar in deals worth a combined $19.6 billion. EchoStar's spectrum includes AWS-4, H-Block, and AWS-3 frequencies that could be used for both satellite and terrestrial communications. According to a SpaceX securities filing, the Federal Communications Commission approved the transaction in May 2026, although it is not expected to close until late 2027. There's no official statement by SpaceX for now. Pricing, availability, and other details remain unknown. Source: Financial Times

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
