- Comment on Green leader Zack Polanski backs legalisation of all drugs 3 days ago:
When I was younger, I’d have thrown my support behind this.
Now that I’m older and world-wiser, I’m much less on board with that. Cannabis? Fine. Heroin? Whatever, you do you. Cocaine? Absolutely not. Not that I’m against cocaine, it’s just that people on cocaine are really, really annoying.
- Comment on The documentation links in PlatformIO are all bit [dot] ly short links 4 days ago:
That’s not wrong, but in this case, PlatformIO isn’t showing these ads, bit [dot] ly is. AFAIK, only bitly gets the ad money.

It’s the VSCode IDE that does it, it seems.

If Paramount doesn’t pick it up, they should at least offer the idea to David Mack or one of the Trek novel authors. Would make a great series.

Lol, of course. I need to do a re-watch.

I’ve heard that before but cannot place it. What is that from?
- Comment on What's the most offensive word I can use that isn't a slur? 6 days ago:
For best results, it depends on the context.
For example, when I’m dealing with people who cannot (or refuse) to do the simplest of tasks, I’ve found myself muttering “ugh, just read the instructions I wrote you troglodyte”.
- Comment on What are your favorite Star Trek books? 1 week ago:
I just started this one yesterday. Enjoying it so far. I’m only a few chapters in, but it definitely fills in a lot of blanks from PIC S1 like “Who is Raffi and why are she and Picard suddenly BFFs?” It puts so much of the first season into context that I felt was missing when I watched it.
Thanks for the recomendation.

- Comment on Where do you guys start in a Lower Decks rewatch? 1 week ago:
I don’t think I’ve done a re-watch of LD yet, but I tend to skip very few episodes these days.
Like, I used to always skip “Take Me Out to the Holosuite” but I didn’t on the last circuit. It’s definitely not one of my favorites, but I did enjoy it that latest time around where I hadn’t before. So now I tend to watch them all even if it’s on my usual skip list.

Probably just smells like old upholstery. Taxidermied animals don’t really have a smell
- Comment on Funniest Exhibit at the Smithsonian 2 weeks ago:
I was thinking that or they just have a lot of them.
- Comment on Funniest Exhibit at the Smithsonian 2 weeks ago:
Neat. I find it interesting that you’re encouraged to touch the exhibit at all. Usually that’s discouraged.
- Comment on what's your take on employers banning the use of languages other than English between coworkers at the workplace? 2 weeks ago:
Not sure what country, but in the US, wouldn’t that technically be illegal (at least between co-workers)? I know some places, such as call centers, won’t let you speak another language to customers without approval (for liability reasons, I assume).
She would get very angry really fast if she heard anything in a language she didn’t understand.

- Not everyone is a goddamned literal Nazi.
Is Disney in the wrong here? You betcha. Are they a shit media conglomerate? Oh, boy, yeah. Are they anywhere close to what’s depicted here? Not even remotely.
Goddamn, it’s like people around here call everything and everyone they don’t like a Nazi. Starting to not even sound like a word anymore.

- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
I can’t speak for your situation, but I do know of too many examples of marriages “just because” that made both partners completely miserable for decades. And their disgust at each other definitely was not good for the kid to grow up around.
If she’s someone you could see spending your life with, just not right now, then it’s worth considering. But either way, I would advise against agreeing to a shotgun wedding.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Sounds like her parents are trying to force you into a shotgun wedding.
Ultimately, it’s up to you if you want to go into a marriage that is very much going to be unhappy. Personally, I’d just setup child support arrangements and discuss with her what role, if any, I would have in the child’s life.

These are the shitposts I live for. Not the shit that should be in the political memes community. Thank you!

I mean, I wouldn’t say “don’t celebrate it” but just because someone else is a piece of shit isn’t a blank check for you* to be a piece of shit.

That’s like asking if every racist joke should be applied to everyone of that race. That’s kind of how stereotype-based “humor” works.

Norf F.C or “Goalposting” is the nickname given to a series of drawings and illustrations originating from 4chan’s /pol/ board satirizing Northern English
Yes, 4chan’s /pol/ board is certainly a mighty fine moral compass you’re referencing there. /s
- Comment on [Eagle screech] 4 weeks ago:
Not saying any of it isn’t accurate for a portion of the population. But it doesn’t apply to everyone (we’re not a monoculture / planet of hats), and to paint 347,628,682 people with an ugly stereotype is, well, kinda racist / xenophobic.
- Comment on One transaction only at the ATM 4 weeks ago:
For regular debit/POS transactions, yeah, I think that’s universal. For ATMs, though, I think it depends on the ATM software, right?
Is it only your bank’s branded ATMs that do that?My credit union doesn’t operate ATMs and just reimburses the fees, so I use any random ATM when I need to do something other than a deposit. Some ATMs let you me multiple transactions, some don’t. Some don’t even let me transfer funds, but those are usually the dinky little ATMs you find in “convenience” locations.
