“If I have to crack open your nuts, I will!”

Same, except from the pipe for me. A nice high quality tobacco from my favorite pipe really hits the spot sometimes, plus it makes me feel classy as hell.

Hot take: AITA (and even moreso those “Reddit Stories” channels on TikTok and YouTube) is just The Jerry Springer Show for Gen Z.

Oh believe me, even though I thought it was a good read, I have a lot of criticism for the story. God forbid literally any kind of emergency happens and additional fuel is needed to avoid catastrophe. I get wanting to maximize space for supplies, but the risk far outweighs the benefits of operating on such tight margins.

!Yes. She goes willingly after learning her brother is on the colony that the pilot is sent to bring supplies to. The pilot allows her one last video call to him before she is jettisoned.!<

I can tell you from experience that there’s a 90% chance she absolutely was trying to draw you in to sell you something

Does it taste like spam? Where did you find it at? I’m not even sure I’ve seen this at specialty stores around here.

True trash-tier software and hardware. Last year I was having trouble with frequently dropped packets from my office computer. I thought it was a Spectrum issue until I tore everything out and started testing all my ports (modem, router, wall ports, etc). I FINALLY narrowed it down to the relatively new TP-Link dumb router I bought. I threw that piece of trash in the garbage.

Never again.

Same deal here. I went to a college party with an acquaintance and he did a line for the first time while we were there. He made SUCH a fool of himself the whole night. I’ve been deterred ever since. I never want to lose complete control like that ever.

The invite finally came through! Thanks a bunch!!

I did automation work for a sewage treatment center that did regular water testing as part of treatment. Most of these kinds of jobs are automated for the most part. There’s always a human operator present to supervise and to do some small function that is still cheaper to have done manually instead of by machine.

Woah, this hasn’t been on my radar at all. Thanks for being generous and sharing!

If you’re still giving out invites, I’d like one as well!

I had to switch from kdenlive to DaVinci Resolve recently and it breaks my heart. I’m by no means a professional, but I am a heavy user who is frequently sifting throughout footage. Unfortunately, crashes are still very common for a power user. After encountering a memory corruption bug for the second time that resulted in lost project work (despite saving to disk!!!), I had to switch to something better.

Debian user here. This is scary accurate.

Last month, the power adapter to my router died out of nowhere. I wasted a ton of time troubleshooting literally everything else other than the power adapter because I’ve never had one die before the actual device itself.

Of course none of the other adapters I had on hand fit. I had to order a new one…

I’ve also been with Premium since the YouTube Red days. It was nice to have peace of mind of no ads on my TV (didn’t need PiHole) and mobile devices (iOS was wrestling with device adblockers for a while). I was grandfathered into the old pricing model until recently. It’s still not that bad per person, but if they raise it too much more, I’m gonna bail.

You ain’t lying. Most of the bartenders at my favorite bottle shop / brewery are teachers doing a side hustle. They need the money.

Want your teachers to stop doing OF and more on the side? Pay them better.

Considering that this picture wasn’t taken in the USA, I’d say that’s a success on the Americans’ part to anticipate stupidity.

It’s up to the other branches (typically the executive branch) to enforce Supreme Court rulings. Back in the day, when states were way more independent, that’d probably mean mobilizing the National Guard. Nowadays, all the Federal gov has to do is withhold federal subsidies and any state (especially Alabama) will cave quickly.

So, with just one sink, I was doing this maybe once every few months, so maybe 3-4 times a year per sink. Now that I have family staying with me, I have to do this 3-4 times a year per sink. Not bad, but if there’s something I can buy or do to get my time back, I’ll take it.

As far as I know, nothing out of the ordinary is causing the blockage. It’s some combination of hair, soap scum, and toothpaste. It usually all accumulates on the stopper before it even gets to the P-trap.
