Y’all got any more of them x3 jokers?

There’s always a relevant xkcd
God, I spent so much time I didn’t have playing KSP.
On the plus side, I did learn the basics of rocket science, so it wasn’t a total waste of time…
Not to mention “barley in middle school”
I don’t know about you, but I think that’s pretty good for a cereal crop.
It’s actually not (just) the acidity. Pineapples and several other tropical fruits have an enzyme called papain that breaks down peptide bonds in a rather unique way, to the point that the texture of the meat can become quite off-putting if the enzyme is not used properly
Edit: acidic or not, it’s definitely best not to put any sensitive parts of your anatomy in pineapple juice
Thanks! I knew I recognized the guy and the quote, but I couldn’t place it until you gave me the Banksy quote. Thierry is a real piece of work.

You’ll be hard pressed to find someone deny basic science in today’s world.
They didn’t outright deny it (out loud), but they cast doubt and equivocate about the parts that don’t agree with their preexisting worldview.
Jesuits have done some decent work for humanity, but they are not scientists, mostly because they start from a premise they want to be true and find evidence for it instead of the other way around.
Edit: in fact, why did knowledge need to be “curated” through the Dark Ages? I’ll give you a hint: it starts a “C” and ends with an “atholicism”
Not OP, but mine was really pretty manageable. 2 days of sitting in an easy chair and icing my balls, 2 days of “walking is fine, but avoid any sudden movements,” and a week of “it’s a little sore, but it doesn’t really hurt.” After that, it was about 2-3 weeks where I didn’t really notice it unless I moved the wrong way too suddenly (whereupon I’d get a quick twinge, but nothing too bad).
Really a pretty small cost for the benefits. I don’t really like painkillers, but I do recommend some THC gummies for the first week and a fresh series to binge
I get that! I’m partial to “getting two birds stoned at once” and “people in glass houses sink ships” myself.
making gang bucks
I think you mean “like gangbusters,” but it’s totally possible “making gang bucks” is a term I just haven’t heard before.
Cheers!
I’m inclined to agree with you, but Valve doesn’t often miss
I used Sync at first because of the similarity to reddit, but I finally got tired of the obnoxious ads and the hypocrisy of using an ad-supported app to browse a completely ad-free service, so a month ago I switched to Voyager and I haven’t looked back. It’s not perfect, but it’s a lot better than Sync and it’s ad-free.
I have tons of playlists and saved music on spotify; how is Tidal at importing data from other services? It’s not really a deal breaker, but I’m really picky about my music (so I don’t really care about “radio” features or curated playlists), so it’d be a real pain in the ass to start from scratch.
Depends. The cheap houses, yeah, there’s as fair bit of noise, but you can’t hear everything. From downstairs, you can hear when someone walks across the room above you, but not when they’re walking in other upstairs rooms. And from rooms on the same level, you can hear if someone is talking loudly in the room next door, but not enough to make out what they’re saying unless they’re yelling.
Well-built houses or buildings made for occupancy by multiple families usually have better sound insulation between the rooms/floors/units, so it’s not always an issue.
Edit: the plus side to that is I know all the noises my house makes at night, so as a light sleeper, I know when something is wrong in the middle of the night, and I only need one decent sound system for the whole house, which is great for listening to records while doing housework.
You know, while sitting around avoiding work on a Monday, I remembered my source: some British dude living in the American Midwest talking about random words on YouTube (I think his channel is “Lost in the Pond” or something like that). The specifics he referenced were “axe/ax,” “kerb/curb,” and “tyre/tire.” In each case, there was a settled spelling shared by British English and North American English (the latter of each pair), and for some reason England made up a new spelling or reverted to an even older spelling in the 19th century (Wikipedia source)
So I wasn’t completely fabricating things, but it was much more specific than I remembered.
There you go. That’s what I get for trusting random bits of unsourced memory.
yet another instance where American English decided to be different for the sake of it, without any rhyme or reason.
I actually read somewhere that lots of those instances were actually England deciding to be different so they could look down on “the colonies.” The extra u in color and favorite, all those random e’s, etc. were actually added later to look “old-timey.”
Now, on a lazy Sunday afternoon, I can’t be bothered to actually find a source, but I remember the source being trustworthy, so take that however you like.
I’ve only ever heard it used in pulpy adventure stories/comics like Howard’s Conan world (some of which do admittedly have some if that implicit racism common to fiction from that time). Has it become more explicitly neo-Nazi?
