Is it considered normal to type out a normal question format when using search engines?

If I were looking for an answer instead of making a funny meme, I'd search "heat movie cast Angelina Jolie" if I didn't feel like putting any effort in.

Then again, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. I've seen someone use their phone to search google "what is 87÷167?" instead of doing "87/167" or like... Opening the calculator....

People do things in different, sometimes weird ways.

Okay I know I like to joke about how bat's look like sky puppers, but this is CLEARLY a bat-canine hybrid of some sort.

BAT-DOG!

Treating a telescope like a jackhammer isn't going to work well.

They just haven't figured out your jackhammer just looks a lot like their telescope.

At first I thought "wow, really? Only 8 seconds?"

Count out 8 full seconds in your head.

Now imagine you're being hit by young teenagers with baseball bats.

8 seconds is a LONG time

You know it's funny, I actually tried two different multicolor pens, but there's a limited size for the pen to fit, and the colors are never quite what you want them to be.

I use pilot g2 pens with a 0.38 tip. The gel pens work best, as there's minimal to no bleeding on the page like markers, normal Bic style pens are too hard on the paper to actually mark anything, and pencils don't auto-feed.

I'm sure a multi-color pen is feasible, and I'm positive I could find the perfect one for a price. But this works for now, as long as I don't feel like adding more than 4 colors.

In my 30s

At this point my wife and I are considering buying property we can put a well and septic on, and park an rv.

The frequent lack of desire for people to experiment and learn anything on their own is very off-putting.

Any time I hear someone say "I didn't think about that" when dealing with a very simple problem, I just want to pull out "How long did you piss on the toilet seat before someone told you to lift it when you go?"

Seriously, I shouldn't have to describe how to remove the ball bearings from this part, because I explained how to do an identical one 2 minutes ago.

I love taking things apart to know what makes them work. Electronics and mechanical devices are fascinating.

And I don't understand how someone can look at things and go "yeah no need to look any deeper, I know enough already"

The USA is kidnapping innocent people off the street and sending them to death camps.

Always have been. Now we're doing it in broad daylight to our own citizens.

I like that handwritten look, but I'm also not dumb enough to use my own handwriting.

My anonymous letters are written with one of those vinyl plotter/cutter things, but it uses a pen attachment to write things instead of cut. It looks very nice when finished. And most importantly, as long as you wear gloves, you don't leave any evidence on the paper.

Note: you can also use it to draw things, but swapping out colors is tedious.

Gotta love all the people who seem to think if we keep doing exactly the same thing (non-violent protests that are out of people's way) and if we ask really really nicely that we will be allowed to go back to a less insane country.

Anyone who wants to sit down and ask ICE to not deport them to a concentration camp is welcome to do so I guess. I'd say "your funeral" but you'll never get a funeral. You'll be dumped in a mass grave or incinerated.

If Obama did it, I'm positive we would have sitting congressional members calling for his execution for treason publicly.

Ah. Well that's a relief, I removed foxit, and never had anything Adobe.

I open the pdfs in inkscape to pull the vector files and save them as an svg. There's probably a simpler way, but this allows me to open the vector in a lot more programs like my laser software and my CAD programs.

The only pdfs that get printed like a normal person are small rc planes and the files are from trusted sources.

It's nice to know I can do a little extra to protect myself from pdf based attacks though, thanks for the info!

Oh damn, that gave me flashbacks of trying to get my page to look the way I wanted it while knowing almost nothing about any type of coding...

You're thinking of Lance Armstrong

He was a tall, bald black man who was a great actor and starred in movies like John Wick, and also did voice overs for tons of games, including Destiny.

Elmo has claimed to be autistic at multiple points. Most recently to my knowledge, to try and excuse his nazi salute.

So when RFK was drooling droning on about how terrible autism is, and how autistic people can't use the restroom unassisted, by extension he was saying Musk can't have a solo bathroom experience.

Everyone, everywhere, has a duty to stop fascism and help their fellow man, regardless of what ultimately insignificant speck of a human decided to put a line on a map.

This is such a weird comment, full of "NiCd batteries aren't good enough so solar/wind are useless because we can't store the power" energy.

It's a test reactor, it's meant to be smaller than the "big boys", and in a few years it'll be smaller and more efficient.

Sure, it's not going to singlehandedly power an entire country, but distributed power is better than localized. 1000 small reactors placed all over means less likelihood of system wide failure than a handful of large ones.

"What were your expectations? "

That the world I was raised to live in still existed?

That the laws I've been told my whole life I HAVE to follow or I will be jailed actually mean something?

That literally any of the lies I was fed about alternative economic systems, religions/nonreligion, or stereotypes were true?

Unfortunately all we have is this shit.

gestures wildly at humanity and what we have done to everyone and everything in our reach

I might need a therapy or two...

Must be nice.

If I pull a gun when ICE thugs roll up on me, I am ABSOLUTELY not going to the gulag.

I will be dead, having been shot 197 times by 3 people who shot 400 rounds each.

But if I'm lucky, quick, and have drilled enough with my firearm, I'll have taken at least one of them with me.

The gun isn't some magic forcefield, and nobody who posts or says things like this is under the illusion that it is.
