Growing up, everyone felt pity for them, as they grew up sheltered and not very well educated. In modern times, I feel like this has been magnified significantly.
I’d only do it if your kid was getting the absolute shit kicked out of them at school(s). Social media makes it extremely easy to get chain-bullied at multiple schools even with a transfer or two.
Modern glassholes
It’s always a safer move to wear protection. If you’re monogamous and your partner hasn’t had any illness recently, it’s probably safe to do raw if they do a good clean out first.
4.15, PNW, today. Typical range is 3.80 - 5.30
We’re a car-light household, so it doesn’t affect us too much. I still want better mass transit options, though.
It really depends. Can they see my flings and hookups and everything in real time over the course of my life? If so, I’ll need 30+ post-death years to get over the embarrassment.
You and me both. It’s especially fun when you work in multiple timezones and some also have standard or daylight time on top of that. Really adds a layer to that shit sandwich of 12 hour time with 12am/pm confusion too
Install some solar panels!
Fwiw, you can’t see the sunrise from a windowless cubicle anyways. You now get a bit more daylight after work!
Definitely a tough situation. I hope things work out well for all of you. I’m also extremely curious about what animal John has for his fursona.
FWIW, I’m not too worried about John’s dating life. The furry community is pretty strong and cross-functional, and there’s a ton of hobby overlap with furries and other hobbies and sports. Especially if he’s bi, there will be others that he will meet, and he’s young. Hopefully his depression gets better.
I want to grab mgsv when it drops below $20. $20 for a 2015 title feels a bit steep.
I just don’t really know how it’s really going to work. Couldn’t you just design your own parts with one weird bit of geometry and the computer wouldn’t recognize it?
Like, I get you don’t want ghost guns, but it seems like the bigger prize is going after illegal and currently legal guns that are actually used in mass shootings. 3D printed stuff seems like small potatoes compared to the daily casualty rates.
I think the Valve era was pretty incredible.
Left 4 Dead, Team Fortress 2, Half Life + HL2, and Portal + 2 all pushed the genres forward or were utterly unique for their time.
I can’t think of any other dev ATM that was doing what valve was doing in the 00s and early 10s.
Definitely fine. I fill up my car like…once a month, if that.
They’ll probably just beg for bailouts while laying off workers, and those workers will blame the company more than those who they voted for (or didn’t vote for, last election).
Mine failed that way, yeah. Though I think it was user error after trying to repair a mouse that wasn’t designed to be serviced officially. All the rubber wore off the wing, so I had to disassemble and replace it with a generic part. The left and right clicks are a bit spongy now, and middle click only intermittently works now, but the mouse is grippy again. I wish more mice were actually repairable.
It’s annoying to have mice that break down and need to be repurchased instead of a few replacement parts. 90% of the mouse was fine.
You will drive and you will like it! Sounds like it basically kills off biking and scooters in its entirety.
I generally recommend repotting in a mix of bark, it’s probably getting aerial roots because it wants a bigger pot.
These generally grow on trees and need humidity but not extended soaks- I water mine once a week under a grow light with 80% bark soil. High humidity with very little actual standing water. They’re sort of like succulents, in some ways!
Sometimes a bit of cold is fine for these plants. I believe some need a week of cold in order to flower consistently. Our drafty house is perfect for this- temperatures around 15-21c
Here is mine- the soil is out of focus, but it’s primarily bark with a very small amount of other soil to keep some moisture in. I probably need to repot soonish!
And the more connected ones you put in, the more people will use them, and the less you have to invest in road maintenance from car wear and tear.
It’s a phenomenal idea to reduce maintenance costs, reduce traffic, dollars spent on police/fire/ems visits to crash sites, and fewer dollars spent on public health due to vehicle emissions.
And it saves riders a shitton of money in gas, car maintenance and potentially insurance, if they only need one car instead of two.
