The dude is clearly underestimating my farts.

Your immuno-compromised kid or spouse - who can’t get a vaccine - may die as a result too.

This isn’t a discussion about where the virus comes from, and debating its source is entirely different than debating the science of effective treatment and vaccines. Promoting unproven horse ointments while speaking lies about proven treatments kills people.

Even if their kids die as a result?

See reddit’s r/pg13nudity

There are quite a few PG-13 where women are topless. Boobs don’t automatically get an R rating. Everything else being equal, I believe it has to be topless in a sexual context to elicit an R rating.

I dropped a new CPU and bent a whole row of pins such that they were just touching the pins on the row beside them. I wondered for a long time how I was going to bend them back and get them all straight again. Managed it with a stiff credit card edge and was so relieved when it booted!

Is the hypothesis that Windows being constantly broken forces you to learn how to fix it ? Because that’s kinda what happened to me 😆

I’d add that PCs also had great gaming, which also encourages upgrading, and PCs have always offered more options for upgrading. You learn a lot and can break a lot doing that, both of which add to the experience.

I’d put it in the lawful category. 4 space indentation and other strict formatting requirements chaffs me to no end, just like a hard-ass teacher requiring name and student number in some specific and strict format at the top of a page.

Investors are the problem?

I for one like stability when my money is involved, and most people do. Most arent looking for the roulette wheel experience. When you have an idiot wielding tremendous power to throw out trade agreements and to inadvertently or intentionally tank certain businesses and industries because they’re significantly affected by tariffs, and from one day to the next they’re added, removed, added again, increased, now decreased… that’s not a place you want your money. And the government’s where those businesses reside aren’t stable either as their future taxes and revenue streams are hard to predict, so their bonds are dicey.

So what do you think investors should do? So what are you doing? Just crossing your fingers and rolling the dice? Got any major purchases coming up? Hoping to retire soon? If you lost your job how secure you feeling about getting another right now? Maybe invest in $TRUMP… I’m sure that will carry you.

Time Machine is just backup software isn’t it? It’s not doing an involuntary index of all your activity and content you interact with, right?

It ain’t high cinema but if want to watch it: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sQ00igUZmCk

I knew there was a reason I love 'em so much!

I don’t doubt the possibility but that’s not the situation here and now with defending Ukraine.

Interesting… I hadn’t heard that. Can it and refineries on the otherend match the volume needed to cut the US off without pain on your side? Honestly hope so. We need to suffer on this side before the idiots that vote for Trump will acknowledge their mistake.

I don’t think anyone’s is worried about the owners of the CA oil. I’m just pointing out we’re not going to see CA stop selling oil to the US because they have no other option. They aren’t going to take one for the team to punish the US, especially because US oil owns much of the CA oil sands operation.

The trouble is they have no one else to sell it to. The US is their only market for it since they have no other way to get it to market.

Except he’s not funding a war, he’s funding the defense of a nation fighting for freedom and its right to exist.

Ukraine didn’t get in this war as a pissing match with Russia. It was wrongly attacked and is a democracy defending itself. It’s had its children kidnapped and its civilians targeted. It will cease to exist if it loses. We don’t have a greedy capitalist funding an unjust war for profit as you’re trying to suggest. Helping Ukraine is the right thing to do. Refusing to help them will simply result in Europe fighting a better-resourced Russia later.

I don’t have it but one of my kids does. She sees colors with certain numbers and letters. Certainly doesn’t seem to have a downside for her and in my reading I haven’t heard of a sensory overload issue. Is this strictly related to the synesthesia or perhaps synethesia exaggerating an existing autistic or ADHD issue?

Your description of hearing shapes and colors sounds a lot like someone with synesthesia, a rare condition that’s seems to have no downsides and only benefits.
