Nope, just a driving joke
Doesn’t matter who’s at the wheel. But it looks kinda cute

Pretty sure your answers didn’t get into poll percentages, too. Guess that’s how 100% support rates are calculated!

I did mention them. Not always plenty in a particular subject area, often takes a lot of time to get published.

Going open access is great, and that’s what I do, but it has to be said a lot of grants do NOT pay for open access publications, and diamond open access (free for authors and readers) is quite rare and you can wait eternity to get published.
So, it has to be paid straight out of personal finances.

You’ll likely kill the motor or drum elements. In essence, your washing machine is an unbalanced centrifuge that tries to release the energy differential by moving the entire thing.
If you restrict its movement, the whole load and the respective mechanical stress will fall on parts moving and holding the drum. They are not meant to hold that kind of load and will break quickly.

Could be my professional deformation as a food technologist, but for some things, most notably baking, I absolutely demand proper measurement.
With enough things considered (for baking: weight of the ingredients, gluten strength and moisture content of flour, yolk to white ratio in eggs, fat content in milk, humidity, leavening/baking temperatures, steaming/not steaming, moisture of additional components, order of assembly - measure as much as you can) you’ll always have a perfect bake instead of “oh, ended up not quite as I wanted, but okay”.

Nah, you don’t understand!
It’s gays everyone’s so concerned about. Lesbians were always the exception, for obvious reasons (fulfilling predominantly male fantasies of two sexy girls playing with each other, while not being off-putting to most women)

Nah, I mean it
No point being harsh on yourself if it doesn’t work anyway. Some people benefit from the OP kind of motivation. For others, it only makes things worse.
Ultimately, it’s not you who should adapt to any slogan, it’s the slogan that needs to adapt to you. I, personally, find gentler ways work way better for me.

You are not running out of time, but having it done makes you have a good rest instead of procrastinating in fear. It’s so much worth it and is very rewarding! So go on, buddy, male your tomorrow a little shinier 🌞

So, RSI or neurodivergence? Or both + total inability to use voice input and formulate basic data lists while working as a programmer?

What kind of prosthetic would you even need to compile a list of sources? And why there are only 2 references listed as 100% total?
This is either an AI bot or a person who lost any ability to proofread, even. Either way, this is 100% AI answer that didn’t cross a human head.
I would suggest instance admins to ban this account.
- Comment on Yes, yes they are 1 week ago:
AI answer is not and should not be taken as a proof.
Even when it’s right on the base thing (more rigid neuron connections), the rest is filled with mounts of nuances it fails to describe.
If you want to use AI for that, I’d suggest asking it for original sources and reading from there, at least.

PvP can be honorable and joyful and rewarding too, if you don’t play with assholes.
Often times, even losing the match may leave you with a sweet aftertaste. Like, yeah, they got us, but it was beautiful and honorable and your teammates were there for you. With you.
Once you get the right people, every match will be like this. With randoms…it’s very occasional, but it happens, too.

To be fair, and, like, a heterosexual man in me would love to agree with you, men are different, and so are women.
Big part of why women often appear more attractive is because culture puts more pressure on women to take very good care of their looks. When men do the same, they can look very nice and attractive.
Besides, look an antique history and its medieval and modern heritage. Men can absolutely symbolize beauty.

To be completely honest, any OS change does come with some friction, and Linux is certainly no exception. Should you ever try this again. give it two weeks, and you’ll learn the best practices.
Until then, good luck with your existing setup!

You’re either serious about it and trying to turn a friendly game meme discussion into some kind of battle, or you’re trolling and doing so with 0 finesse. Keep your game a little higher.
Either way, since you love being contested, here are pre-1963 ship figures for Battleship, dated early XX century:
Hasbro hasn’t been first in that, either. They are just large enough to dictate what is considered to be “official”. And this is far from isolated case.
- Comment on battlecheat 3 weeks ago:
Certainly not just a house rule, I’ve met it everywhere.
And, as it seems from further down the thread, it seems to be the difference because large parts of the world rely on Hasbro’s Battleship as the rule source, while the other seems to play by older rules (by the time Hasbro/Milton Bradley released the game, it was already almost a century old).
Others from Spain and Germany also seem to know that rule, but it was not in the official Hasbro version of the game. This is what appears to make that difference.

Soviet, in fact. We also don’t typically use a board, we just use a white checkered sheet of paper.
