  That’s how it got knocked over, they built pylons, the damned Protoss moved in

  I am absolutely certain that’s what the paperwork says :)

  seems like they should have driven in some pylons before the foundation, of course, the REAL worry now is what about all those other ones?

  Wordle? not good. I get to do have 10m of fun every 24 hours.

  Wait, that’s not notably different then IRL right now and i get to do nothing for 23+ hours.

  Hell, I’m just glad some of the 90’s stuff managed to make it to that status.

  Smells Like Teen Spirit is 35 years old. It’s was incredibly hot at the time, but it felt like a gibberish song. I figured by the time I hit my 50’s/60’s it would just have been looked at as some crazy bullshit.

  I’ve reported the disinformation and now i’m blocking you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The price of soda in 2017⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re making some shitty assumptions that someone will read and pass off as fact. Some asshole manager somewhere will read that bullshit and tell a diabetic they can wait to eat because it’s no big deal because wanderingwanderer needs to feel like they said their peace about shit they don’t live with.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The price of soda in 2017⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I wasn’t thinking about that because I assumed

  Don’t go on rants about medical shit you know nothing about before you spread disinformation and get someone hurt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Chef⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I always fucked up making pizza dough. I’d weigh the ingredients to the gram, work it per the instructions, and it always ended up a sloppy mess or dry clusterfuck.

  I finally figured out hydration based on how the dough reacts. It took me 50 pizzas to get it right. Now I don’t even measure.

  But I can only make pizza dough :) Bread works out slight differently

  They almost had alarms once. The fire code requires you to be able to get out in case of a fire. So they put doors in that pseudo lock and have alarms to try to keep people from stealing but allow them to escape in case of a fire.

  In high theft areas or new buildings, they often still work.

  The first time they break or someone disables them they have a high chance of never getting reactivated

  You message is is medically wrong, It misunderstands both diabetes and hypoglycemia, and it gives unsafe advice.

  A diabetic with low blood sugar absolutely does need fast‑acting sugar.
  That’s not optional, not “only if they messed up,” and not something complex carbs can fix quickly enough.

  Hypoglycemia is an acute medical emergency, especially for insulin‑dependent diabetics.

  Complex carbs (starches) take 20–60 minutes to digest.

  A hypoglycemic diabetic can lose consciousness in under 5 minutes.

  Simple sugars are only necessary if they messed up by not eating enough and already have dangerously low levels.

  This is false.

  Hypoglycemia is extremely common in diabetics, especially those using insulin or sulfonylureas. It is not a separate condition. It is a direct consequence of diabetes treatment.

  Insulin overdose

  Delayed meals

  Exercise

  Alcohol

  Illness

  Normal day‑to‑day variation in insulin sensitivity

  All can cause hypoglycemia in diabetics.

  So saying “that’s hypoglycemia, not diabetes” shows a misunderstanding of how diabetes works.

  You should consider educating yourself about diabetic hypoglycemia or insulin_overdose. before you start handing out medical advice.

  It’s about 3x what it was 25 years ago.

  I used to sell soda at work. We’d go buy cases when it went on sale and sell it to the people.

  A sale in 2000/2001 would cost you ~ $0.20 a can. Stuff not on sale would be a touch over a quarter, so we sold the soda for a quarter. Never made any money, we just didn’t feel like paying $0.75 a can when the company stopped giving out free soda and put in a vending machine.

  For the next few years, the sales would be closer to a quarter a can with an occasional sale being closer to 20 cents.

  Costco is currently around $0.61 for Diet coke.

  My misto started doing a 50:50 spray stream after 5 years. I ran soapy water through it and it got better, does need some upkeep though. After 5 years, i might consider it worn out.

  I still have a 2600 and a Nes.

  The joysticks are 80% shot. the edge connector on the nes is about 15 min from wanting to play to getting it to play.

  Come now, child, it’s time to commune with us, the deep ones. We who witnessed the 8088 and Apple II’s in the computer store, the Commodores, the Ataris, the Coleco visions, we who played Pong on the Atari Home Pong console.

  These children haven’t even danced on a home DDR pad, settling for Nintendo and Microsoft’s weak tracking methods.
