  • No, I could se this... Fill up a full page and then it jumps to the next, blank page. If she can't see that the first page exists, she may have thought she just erased all her work by typing one too many keys.

    Source: I work in IT and pretty sure I've seen exactly this. Lot's of flavors to the human experience, lemetellyou.

  • That's a smoke screen. Another is the "liberal brainwashing machine" school system scare. What they fear is the statistic that higher educated individuals trend towards populism and progressivism. They see higher education of youths as a threat to their political base, which turns into "spineless parents sending kids to liberul brainwashing camps funded by the gubmnt."

  • And you get to make one of those cute "Resolved; for record keeping" tickets to fill out your day :) This is why I actually give out my direct line. If anyone gets upset at not being able to reach me, I can just say tons of people have that same number and are trying to reach me, and I'm never bored from 8-5

  • Not to mention that if he is off of any 1 ballot and loses, he has ammunition for another Jan6. If he has a "fair shot" and loses, there is less plausibility and (hopefully) fewer followers in the repeat.

  • Which this probably is if they want to pack as much data as possible in one unit.

  • Question: We've seen sand-filled missiles due to corruption and cronyism, and they were actually transfered to the front line expecting to be live munitions. How many Russian ICBMs do you think are truly functional between the "new" ones and the 70yo cold war hulks?

    To be clear, I don't revel in the idea of a war between the Ruskies and NATO, but Putin is certain to be wondering this, too. How effective are his strategic assets, truly? I'm sure the CIA has figured that out and is guiding US response on that intel. They know exactly how far an insecure dictator can be pushed.

  • Hey OP, that site has enough trackers on it to give me cancer. Can you link an alt from a more consumer friendly source?

  • Clippy never had a voice and tbh the one that comes to mind for him is not very easy on the ears. Like downpitched spongebob.

  • Titan A.E. - The last great Don Bluth animated film that sank Fox Animation at the box office is still an incredible hidden gem from 2000.

  • You neglect the versatility of our tabboo language, too!

    Take English's favorite swear: Fuck.

    Fuck is:

    • Noun - "You sick fuck."
    • Verb - "I'd fuck it."
    • Adjective - "A fucked-up situation."
    • Superlative - "Un-fucking-believable."

    It can be used to express:

    • Joy - "Fuck yes!"
    • Horror - "Oh fuck..."
    • Sensuality - "Fuck me~"
    • Resignation - "Fuck me..."
    • Anger - "Fuck you!"
    • Condolences - "That's fucked..."

    And that's just scratching the surface!

  • Some retired old fart who can't be bothered to learn fancy-schmancy Web 2.0. Rock on like it's '93

  • Yeah... I wouldn't enjoy it as much if it was "honey I shrunk my little bro."

  • Public media does not mean there isn't someone powerful pulling the strings. Public works aren't funded by us, they're funded by the agencies that reserve the right to pull said funding regardless of public support. We fund those agencies.

  • It's entirely subjective, like wine tasting. Sweetness in such a bitter drink is more about what flavor notes exist that your brain associates with sweetness. Apple spice coffee, cinnamon, nutmeg, and certain floral notes like vanilla will pull "sweet-adjacent" associations in your mind that form a melody with the taste and smell.

  • I've wanted to do this for some time, but everyone tells me there's no way to make it work without constantly updating the blacklist. Is it really such a hassle?

  • We have that one. It's a tiny indie gem called No Man's Sky, and, get this, there's no cutscene when you leave the planet!
