I turned em off when my boss at the time noticed I was always playing FFXIV. I wasn’t always actually playing, I used to leave it open almost all the time. Why was my boss and I in the same discord? This was early COVID and we used a discord to shoot the shit. Also almost all of us games, including said boss, and I probably wouldn’t have really gotten in trouble anyway, but I just explained I leave it open a lot and he accepted that without qualm.

People still will, because lots of people spoil, some like watching streaming etc. When new stuff comes out and I’m not ready to start it, it often also involves stop visiting certain communities, discords, etc.

It shows anger issues and a proloclivity towards disproportionate retribution. Most people wouldn’t kill an animal for a simple chip/fry heist.

Except earlier it said to have no idols. The cross is an idol. You can appreciate a sacrifice without using the tool that caused such sacrifice as a form of worship. If you rather jumped in front of you and died to a gun shot, he sacrificed his life to save you and you would be appreciative. Would you then wear a gun necklace around your neck to show you love your dad and the sacrifice he made for you? By sanctifying his murder weapon?

Oh, it seems I said it in a way that sounded like all my teachers were like that. Not so. I meant I only remember the passionate ones. My 8th grade science teacher, my 10th grade chemistry teacher, my high school sociology teacher, my 11th grade American History teacher and my 11th and 12th grade Electronics teacher are the only ones I have significant memories of.
They were all passionate teachers that loved teaching, not just following a program or book. They taught with experiments, examples, etc. Even when I did things wrong. For example, the 8th grade science teacher. One experiment had us making H20 and NaCl from HCl and NaOH. We’d mix the HCl with a glass stirrer, and I started putting it in the Bunsen burner’s flame making it blue.
Teacher caught us and had us stay after class. But instead of just a punishment or lecture, they instead brought out a bunch of dangerous to burn items including magnesium and gave us protective gear, then demonstrated why putting random things in fire was bad. It was an excellent and very fun way to teach us a lesson.

One placed laid me off. I was a senior telecom/network admin in IT, so while I wouldn’t have due to personal morals, I definitely had potential to, with even just my badge access.
They gave me about 3 weeks, with no access. They told me I was gone officially at the end of the month and my would be paid normally until then, after which severance would kick in, but don’t come in.
I think that’s a fine way to do it.

The only person I’ve had this reaction from was a genx man yelling that he wasn’t being emotional but instead logical. Said man did the standard co.plain about wife and say women are emotional, and also argued that animal abuse shouldn’t be punishable by law because animals don’t have souls.

Now we know why teacher isn’t teaching math, but they should definitely not be teaching reasonableness either.

I have metal versions. I don’t really use em, but they’re for stuff like alcoholic drinks or whiskey on ice but for if you don’t want it to get watered down, just cold. I have two that look like metal golf balls and 6 that are small cubes,and they generally just sit somewhere atm.
I’ve used em to cool booze before, but I haven’t drank any high percentage alcohol in a while.
- Comment on Anon visits a guy's house 3 weeks ago:
My ice cubes are small enough that rinsing them would waste more water than just tossing the very few that fall. I toss em in the sink.

You probably think no one wants to hear it when they disagree, but more likely what works for you doesn’t work for everyone. As the person replying to you exemplified. There isn’t a one trick for everyone in these kinda of things, and anyone who claims there is is either ignorant or scamming.

Bunch of Klansmen(some who knew Ron Paul and one of those started Stormfront) really overestimated themselves, yeah. They got caught before they even left the US kinda hilariously.

Well, there was Operation Red Dog by 13 (3 being agents so really more like 9-10) people who tried to take over Dominica and make it a white ethnostate…

Check your weight in the morning then later in the day. It always fluctuates, with your overnight fast/ not drinking water making you lose some weight if you couldn’t gain any but could still lose weight, you’d eventually wither away.

My issue with 6 is that it feels like a monkey paw. There are times we shouldn’t be happy, like tragedies happening to others, deaths ,etc. While being overall happy in life sounds great, always happy sounds like a cognitive issue.

I don’t use it, but I assume the writes for you was to imitate VS Codes GitHub copilot. While it will suggest code in stuff like scripts, you can absolutely ignore it

I understand the appreciation of the…“theatre” of wrestling, but I can’t get past how much it destroys their bodies. I don’t watch football either. I could watch fiction about both.

Eh, that’s your view of it. I first came across this joke in high school, with our chemistry teacher. He didn’t do it to feel superior; if he wanted to do that he could humiliate us in different ways. He used it as a teaching opportunity to show how a slight exaggeration on true facts and a complicated sounding word could confuse people.
He probably also did it to show us why learning some chemistry nomenclature could help us out. He was a fun teacher that loved showing us the joy of science, not a condescending asshole.
You seem to think we all enjoy tricking people, but there are several comments here explaining the joke for people who don’t get it. If they weren’t here, I or someone else would have. Not everyone who has a little fun with something someone doesn’t know yet does it maliciously.
The whole 1 in 10000 xkcd thing is something I love, and whenever my fellow IT people get angry that some client doesn’t know something we find obvious, I counter that there’s tons of law, fashion, medical etc stuff we dint know but our clients are experts at.

Very intelligent people can like childish fart jokes and dad jokes. It has nothing to do with their intelligence; people just have opinions on humor. I don’t like scatological jokes, but I don’t try to define someone’s intelligence with it. That would be extremely stupid, as they are not related.

Ehh, too jingoistic for me. I don’t really like flag based outfits unless it’s something like the Olympics, but I also mostly dislike that too (not the athletes, but the organization and the damage it does to areas it’s held in).

I sometimes ask questions, and sometimes I’m forced to because the original answer somehow misinterpreted my query. I also do searches like you mentioned, but I don’t exclusively do one of the other.

I had googled for it and saw people say they tried support and couldn’t get it, so I didn’t myself, but I guess I should have tried anyway.
