Dachshund spines just existing damages them.

🤣 exactly! Like, way to show your bias there folks

Kind of a shit article. Refers to the candidate as a “failed rapper”, calls ranked choice voting a “confusing system” but I suppose it’s at least getting the word out

Which is crazy because like… you think they would have heard of linux before

Is this Zuck as a Navi?

Love caving videos and love magnus. Thanks for posting!

No, but it is an extremely common replacement for regular sugar, so common as to be near unavoidable.

THE BROODWICH CANNOT BE TAKEN APART OR DISASSEMBLED

I can’t wrap my head around how it would ever be better to have a landlord than to own the dwelling yourself.

There’s only two situations that I can think of, and one of them kind of only exists on paper.

One is that some people genuinely want to be a bit more nomadic and not be as tied to one place. Getting to the point of signing a lease does take time, but not nearly as much time as closing on a property, so some folks want to rent because it provides them a bit more freedom of movement. I tend to believe this group is very small compared to the genealogy population.

The other is that people will say “oh when you rent you aren’t responsible for maintenance/ repairs/ upkeep because you don’t own the property so you don’t have to deal with those things.” This is true on paper I think, but a lot of places allow lease agreements to shift some of that responsibility back on to the renter, and I’m sure most renters will have plenty of experiences where something breaks and then they have to fight with their landlord for ages and then nothing gets done so they end up just saying fuck it and fix the damn thing themselves so they can just go on living their lives.

Obligatory reminder that saying the USPS has “struggled financially in recent years” is straight up sanewashing misinformation. They used to be one of the only public services to actually be profitable (not that i think that should matter; government shouldn’t have any kind of profit motive) and the only reason they aren’t technically still is because Republicans have been trying to privatize and ratfuck USPS for decades. A few years ago they passed a law requiring the USPS to fully fund retirement pensions for the next like 70 years, thus on paper the service now looks like it’s in the red.

I know jellyfin has apps on Android phone and Android TV at the very least.

Apple seeds dont typically grow in to apple trees with actually tasty fruit

Yeah, as a fan of red ales, i don’t drink beer much anymore…

It’s crazy, I’ve seen you comment something similar on multiple posts in this community and yet you’ve only posted one here and it was over a year ago. Quite the entitlement.

Yep exactly what I was trying to get at

Can’t believe no one has mentioned this yet but my big one is physics in microgravity. There are some that do it well (like obv Apollo 13 given how they filmed it, and The Expanse is usually pretty good about it too) and plenty that it doesn’t really matter but there’s a bunch of movies and tv shows that hang major plot points on poorly thought out physics. The worst offender imo was ironically the movie Gravity, where a major character dies because apparently when two people are tethered to each other in zero-g and the line goes taut they don’t just bounce back towards each other, oh no, because there’s an extra special force that keeps pulling on the futher person so he has to make some dramatic self sacrifice. I was so sad because that movie looked really amazing from a cinematography perspective and obviously a lot of people loved it regardless but i just couldn’t get past how dumb that and a few other scenes were.

No doubt, but imo “natural talent” is way less common than just people who have put in the work, at least for musicians in my experience. For every person i know that just started rippin shit from when they were 3 years old there’s like 20 more folks who have just put in the hours. I also think some people who seem to have that natural talent it’s more like they just were immersed in that environment from birth. Music is a lot like a language; you can always learn a new language as an adult but people that grow up speaking it because of their environment will make it look effortless.

Oh sorry i thought you were meaning to imply it’d be too difficult; I see now.

Nah it’s not that kind of game. I’m currently playing with my partner and she isn’t the biggest gamer and so far she’s only had a little difficulty at certain parts. These games are designed very well to be able to cater to those with lots experience.
