- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 4 days ago:
Ambient air temp when the bottle is cooling probably also plays a role, more or less shrink before it “freezes”
Yeah I agree with that. Also maybe inconsistency with the plastic batch.
But also milk jugs are blown directly from pellets, no threaded blank. Water bottles and pop bottles go from threaded blanks though.
I don’t remember seeing washing but I guess that would be on the filling side, (jugs are made on one side of the plant then go through a wall to the clean side) I don’t think I’ve seen that for milk.

I was wondering that too, fake redaction on false allegations and unverifiable allegations, real redaction on allegations that can be corroborated.

I think they might. We should find someone from Dunedin.
- Comment on Why are there so many Christmas songs, yet hardly any New Year's ones? 2 weeks ago:
They reference sleighs because they are (were) a practical and fun way of getting around in winter. Sleighs are associated with Santa but the songs aren’t about his sleigh.

Lots of Christmas songs are actually just winter songs.
Frosty the snowman
Jingle bells
Winter wonderland
Sleigh ride

- Comment on Anon is a linguist 2 weeks ago:
Honestly I agree, I only pointed it out because of the irony of a pedant insisting others ought to use words according to their formal definitions while misusing formal English.
“Right” is a bad word to end a sentence with“Right” is a bad word with which to end a sentence because it can be mis-parsed as as an invitation to agreement.

I feel like I’m walking into a trap here but:
This pedant is using an adjective as an adverb.
(…)you don’t conjugate your verbs right.

- Comment on Shout out to my engineering homies. 4 weeks ago:
The sooner they hire someone the less time they spend understaffed and the more they have to pay whoever the hire. It’s not a huge difference but it is also not zero.
- Comment on Shout out to my engineering homies. 4 weeks ago:
It just won’t affect the company whatsoever.
When does a company decide to recruit? It’s when current employees can’t handle the workload and/or move projects ahead on schedule.
Not being recruited increases the hiring cycle time and means the development falls further behind schedule.
It’s not nothing.

I’m not even a ham and I know Baofeng are infamous for spurious emissions. Have they been getting away with it by just not telling the FCC that they’re selling transmitters?

Most modern scholars consider this epistle to have been written after Paul’s death, although a small and declining number of scholars still argue for Pauline authorship.

- Comment on Insuranace is a joke 2 months ago:
Same model year doesn’t mean same condition.
A used car with lower mileage, documented service history, and a dealer warranty is worth a lot more than one without those things.
But also OP is right insurrance will generally offer the least they think they can get away with.

John 8 starts with the pericope of the women caught in adultery, one of the edits I mentioned…
Do you know what John 10 doesn’t say?
The father and I and the holy ghost are one, and three, but most of the time one. 3 persons, one being. Like why didn’t he try explaining it to someone that wouldn’t try to kill him, and that was writing things down…

the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins
He says the son of man has the authority to forgive sins. If he is trying to explain that he is god, he is doing a terrible job. To me it seems like he is saying “you think only god can forgive sins, I’ll show you you’re wrong”
If someone were to wrong me, would my child be able to forgive them? Nope.
You’re saying that your omnipotent god can’t authorize someone to forgive sins on its behalf?
