Just because you don't understand the science does not make it magic. The force is described as a biological phenomenon that the Jedi have some understanding of, whether the audience learns about it or not is irrelevant, it's science fiction by definition.

Quote the script where magic is ever mentioned in the films. A light saber is a device with a button that Luke has the knowledge to repair.

Put it in your fantasy section if you want, I'm not even arguing it's not fantasy, but it's undeniably science fiction.

Laser swords and biological powers beyond our current grasp of the science behind them define it as science fiction.

I get it's the quirky pickme trend to argue over this and I agree about the fantasy elements but don't be the 'actually' guy in the room.

Nike marketing aside, sketchers are child abuse.

Americans signing for credit card purchases.

But maybe that died in the past few years, it's been a while since I've visited. You must have tap by now, but if not... awkward

And I'm just being cheeky

You still need to wipe after using a bidet. Whether you're wiping water off your butt or poop, I highly doubt in either case anyone is using that towel on their face afterwards, so it's moot. You're either keeping poo towels or you're wiping with paper that gets flushed with the poo. If you think the former is more developed then so be it, but my diet doesn't necessitate power washing my asshole after pooping and keeping poo towels is a non-starter for me.

Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.

Diversity is paramount for social media, otherwise it becomes an echo chamber or worse.

Say what you will about the average redditor, but remember at a certain point they're just the average person.

I mean, love me some Linux nerds and Germans as much as the rest of you but lemmy needs more.

Go find a 30' stick and let us know if you can point it at the moon.

You might be shocked to learn that books is art, too.

With his stance against trump, he has people at the office saying things like, "I don't like Ford but I'm happy he's standing up to Trump" and I think Doug knows that's the best popularity boost he's going to get in the foreseeable future.

Have you heard of books?

You honestly think they would approve a paying customer's claim for euthanasia?

As a Canadian I feel like I just saw a rat scurry under my bed while I'm snuggled under the covers.

It was definitely something weird that everyone would tell them was the obvious thing.

Canada - Telus/Koodo

$40 CAD/mo

70Gb up/down/mo

Unlimited calls and texts in Canada, voicemail, call control, and free international sms

4G LTE but often connect to LTE+

Average speed test 180 Mbps up/down

Oh no! Who will deliver my recycling, now?

WebEx is night and day better than everything else imo. The only advantage teams has is NDI, but otherwise it's a complete joke in every other comparison.

Basically, the US banking system is made up of many smaller banks, unlike most other countries where there are fewer, larger banks.

This coupled with a large land mass with high population makes it more difficult to make the expensive infrastructure upgrades necessary for modern banking innovations like tap to pay and the loss of the need for physical signatures.

Many of these innovations are only making it to the US now because of larger foreign banks entering the US market, as well as the plummeting costs of technology.

Make sure you're well hydrated (with water), eating healthy and regularly, getting regular exercise and have a good sleep schedule. If those are all solid, talk to your dentist about sleep apnea and if a sleep appliance might be right for you, as you may not be breathing well in your sleep.
