Tangental, but I thought it was 5. Somewhat diminished, then.

Yeah. That's why he tried to assassinate the conservative candidate, right? Trying to associate someone who was mentally broken enough to attempt murder to an entire political bloc is missing the entire point.

I know cats that blink the middle light if you brake hard.
EDIT: I'm not fixing that typo

I thought the same thing about blinkers and turning the wheel.

Maybe, but the point is that it's open. There's a much higher chance that one of the companies that builds parts will make good decisions.

I was cleaning out a chemical storage closet at work. A hydrogen chloride container leaked out onto some iodine containers. I picked one up (bare handed) and sat it down in the grass. About thirty seconds later, I noticed the steam boiling up from around the bottom of the container. This is about 45 seconds worth of contact.

To be fair, this works with humans, too.

When I got out of the military, my outprocessing included a briefing about how to get interviews with federal organizations. One thing they taught us was that you can copy the job description, paste it into your resume, and set the font to white. The automated systems at USA Jobs would register a match to the job description and rate you as a better candidate and the human screeners were so overworked that they would just go with what the computer says without checking.

Wow. I thought they were just dumb. That makes it worse, I think.

Well shit, I accidently deleted the one without the corrupted image. Here is the original if it matters to anyone.

Piracy is coming back, and this time the tech has matured.
I held on to hope that this would be satire way too long. Then I remembered what group I was on.
There are so many layers of fuckery here. For instance, 1. Bobonic Paige isn't a thing, 2. Plague doctors with scythes weren't superadvanced reptiles spreading poison during the middle ages, 3. The bubonic plague isn't viral anyways, 4. What the fuck are you taking about????

I didn't know it existed
There's this whole Jack Chick knockoff world that has been around for decades despite having the worst arguments.
At first, I thought this was satire. It wasn't. He's seriously asserting this as a response to The Problem of Evil.
Seriously. The thread has a plot thicker than a soap opera.
Name says it all. I want to download my watch later list.
I recently heard that the nerves controlling the pinkie and ring finger are intertwined to the degree that it's almost impossible for most people to move the pinkie and ring fingers without the other. Does it count as "independent" if one twitches while the other does the real moving? I think I may finally be special!
I spent so many hours playing the original KSP on Linux, only to be gravely disappointed by their decision to cut out Linux from KSP2. Has anyone got it working through proton or the like?
I loved using hoppy.network to build a tunnel to my VM on my home server over the last year, but there are better options than 8 dollars a month. The service needs to be available to the wider internet, but run on my home server. I can use Linode to get the job done at 5 a month, but my home server is an 8 core, 16 thread Zen with 24 gigs memory and that's a single, low-priority Linode instance with less storage than my server has working memory. I've considered using Tailscale, but that solution strikes me as hacky. Any suggestions?
