Care to elaborate "MFA via SMS only"? I'm not in tech and know MFA through text is widely used. Or do you mean alternatives like Microsoft Authenticator or YubiKey? Thanks!

Ditto. I'm the same as OP. Paid off student loans in 2019 and now I just have a mortgage. Let's forgive everyone's loans plz.

Mediocre bassoonist here.

I really like folk instruments. I've been working on learning accordion, but I've put it down for a while. I'm going to make serious study a goal in 2024. Although I don't know what I'd do with it!

I'd like to learn to play to play the hurdy-gurdy or one it's relatives, the Balalaika , any fipple, or any of the hammered dulcimers.

In practicality, I should be a better keyboardist though

Linguists aren't sure the second part is "hold".

Liberman (Oxford University Press blog, Feb. 11, 2015) revives an old theory that the second element is the Proto-Germanic instrumental suffix -thlo and the original sense of threshold was a threshing area adjacent to the living area of a house.

Ancient words are weird; meanings/ spellings change and are lost to time. It's what makes it all so interesting. You're not wrong, but this might be a bad example.

Hitchhiker is spelled with two hs in the middle?

As for threshold, it's an ancient word...

Yes, my stone is a full carat because my husband wanted a round number I guess haha. Anyway, it does look rather opulent given our economic status, but I Iike it and it fit his budget.

I was going to mention this. This squeaky metal door/gate noise is so overused in the XFiles that if I hear it in a movie today, I want to walk away. It's been 30 years! Get a new door sound.

Similarly when they walk in the house but don't shut the front door again, or open the fridge but never close it. I'm like waiting the whole scene to get back to that and missed the entire dialogue.

Wouldn't that be double jeopardy? Or no because he wasn't tried? Genuine question... I don't know a lot of the details.

Until 10 June 2014 it was not possible to register a domain name directly under .uk (such as internet.uk); it was only possible as a third-level domain (such as internet.co.uk).

Perhaps these sites were registered before 2014...

I have a moissonite ring, but it looks very much like a diamond. If you're looking for something different, I would check antique stores or estate sales to look for a second hand gem. You can always have it put in a new setting if the ring is too dated for your tastes.

Kind of an inside joke at our house, but the theme to the original Blob. It is so goofy for a terrible "horror" movie. Enjoy!

I'm interested to know if the number of students taking the test has remained the same. If that number is dropping, it may skew the scores and tell a different tale.

Great question! I'm a woman. Generally my riding pants don't have pockets and when I wear jeans I can't trust the shallow pockets to keep my phone secure. I don't normally wear a jacket when riding.

Also, not that you mentioned this but I wanted to bring it up, I don't like wearing headphones in traffic for safety. I have worn wireless earbuds, but they fell out too many times and I'd have to go back and search for them.

You've heard of elf on a shelf, now get ready for ...

I'm only in the office once a week. Outside of the winter months, I ride my bike about 4.1 miles (6.6 km). It takes about 25 mins and I cut through a park and church parking lot. I do have to cross one of the busiest roads in my area, with the help of a light. That part is not pleasant. I recently got a phone mount, so now I can listen to the news on my commute as well. The worst part is getting to the office sweaty and having to change into nice office clothes in a bathroom stall. I am the only person who rides to work at my office.

I still use my Hotmail account. I created it 9/12/2001. The shock must have been so great that I needed to make my first email account. Why yes, the handle is related to Godsmack's second album.

Thanks for clarifying, I didn't understand that in the article.

So long Radio Free Europe

Some older films can get creepy without gore. Check out the French film Diabolique (1955) or Wait until Dark (1967) with Catherine Hepburn.

Some Halloween movies that are just on my fun list: The Stuff (1985), The Stepfather (1987), Hider in the House (1989), and the Blob (1988).
