Considering how much of human effort is just signaling in different forms, this makes a lot of sense. Losing a visual marker of your hard work messes with your established signaling. This makes me wonder what the new signal will be? Fitness clothing has already been taken… Maybe people will wear their gym memberships on a lanyard all the time or something?
The scarf in Shinobi was such a revelation when it came out
It’s worse. There are no innocent bystanders in Hell.
Never seen 3/4" drywall. 5/8" is common in commercial, 1/2" in residential.
Clone High
Duckman
Mostly because both ended with shocking cliffhangers.
So you’re saying it is possible then? That was my only hangup. I don’t have a position on whether we have free will (leaning towards not) for the exact reason we can’t prove it.
How would perceived irrationality be counter to a deterministic universe? It just maybe seems irrational without all of the information, but is still perfectly part of the causal chain.
I get essentially the same, although not being familiar with the references makes some parts unclear.
I’m assuming Michaelmas is a name, but maybe it’s a celebration (like Christmas) and the word term here is implying the author’s feelings about it.
Same with the Chancellor part. What does sitting in the hall mean? It’s an Inn, so not in official capacity then? Is it a metaphor or common turn of phrase?
Is Holbern hill steep? Or is it a famously gentle hill? The use of “wonderful” here tripped me up at first too since it’s so different from how we’d use it now.
What are chimney-pots? Are they just chimneys or something else?
First time? Specifically for the LHC maybe.
It’s why I never got into it even though it’s fun. Long before Steam they’ve had a subscription which is supposedly justified due to Google charging for their API or whatever.
Exactly. I have a batch of cupcakes in the oven so the timer is set for 12 mins, but I also want to melt some chocolate for the ganache while that’s going.
Luckily, my microwave supports doing both, but I’ve cooked at other people’s houses and their microwaves are essentially bricked while the timer counts down which is so crazy to me it’s like they’ve made this appliance worse on purpose.
I get irrationally upset over microwaves that don’t let you use the timer and cook functions simultaneously
The dumb ones are typically “display” monitors, like what fast-food restaurants use for their menus. Likely more expensive, but built better too
Yeah that’s pretty accurate. It doesn’t help that the current internet structure thrives on any sort of engagement so getting some haters means you’re more visible and it becomes a feedback loop.
I’ll try and answer this but it’s complicated…
From what I gather, there are a bunch of different groups that dislike her for different reasons. Some people are just misogynists with fragile egos who can’t take a joke. Some are prudes who think less of anyone who does sex work. Some dislike her political comics for being “low effort”. Some think her comics are unfairly boosted (bots or something I guess??) to be more prominent than they should be. Some are upset over her apparent misandry in one particular comic (and the doubling down defense of it). And lastly some dislike how much “power” she has to quash all criticism/critique/parody of her comics.
It’s messy because the ones in the last couple of groups get lumped in with the ones in the first groups and it gets vitriolic/toxic pretty quickly. You know, like the internet tends to do.
Nurses tend to like the veins in my left arm so I’ve had a few comments on that.
I add some butter too so it makes a bit of a sauce, and don’t be too thorough when draining so that there’s a little bit of starchy water to saucify things even more.
That’s a good point, I was lumping too many people together there. Yes, now how will people show they “suffered” with dieting?
