I would love to know how much of a roll that meme played in her choice of degree. Like, in the parallel universe where everything is identical up to this fire, but this picture wasn’t taken (ie, the camera didn’t work or something), did she still choose that degree?

I mean, OP provided a source link.

I close my eyes, take slow deep breaths, and with each breath slowly count up and down from 0 with the high number increasing by one on each cycle. Eg. 0 1 0 1 2 1 0 1 2 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4 3 2 1 0… It requires just enough concentration to keep my brain from drifting off to other thoughts (usually), but is boring enough that I rarely get to 9 without falling asleep. If find my mind does wander, I just try again.

That’s an absolutely fair point.

Nevertheless, my overall point stands. Each fast food place I worked at had their own chain specific jargon. Nobody used, or cared about, sit-down restaurant jargon.

I mean, the guy who used the restaurant term was giving directions directly to a restaurant.

A “fast food joint” is not a restaurant in that sense. Nobody with any common sense would expect a bunch of kids working their (likely) first job for spending money to be up on, or care about, restaurant jargon.

So, they are dependent on each other.

That means you’re waiting to use the bell until you’re right behind people. That’s missing the point of the bell entirely. You’re just grasping for excuses to have music regardless of how rude it is to other people on the trail.

I’ve got a bell on my handlebars for that.

People around where we live mount Bluetooth speakers to their bicycle and ride around on nature trails sharing their music with everyone because who the hell goes out in nature to experience nature?

Also, the paper casually mentions how rooftop solar reduces the cooling load of the building. What I didn’t see acknowledged was that that extra cooling load (presumably traditional A/C) on a building without rooftop solar moves the heat out of the building into… (drum roll), the surrounding environment. So… the heat still got to the surrounding environment, it just took a longer path to get there.

Or force them to get a gay marriage.

He’s not just any idiot. He’s the most idiotic of idiots. He’s an idiot the likes of which the world has never seen. Experts have told him that they’ve never met an idiot more idiotic than he is.

In the third paragraph you mentioned “tux” but I’m guessing that you meant “tmux”. Just a clarification for readers not familiar with it and want to look it up.

Intentionally targeting civilians isn’t war, it’s a war crime and it’s terrorism. Ukraine has nothing to gain by committing war crimes and everything to lose, such as support from their allies and thus, the war.

TIL how to spell beaucoup.

I don’t usually run, but when I do, I run a mild/moderate fever.

Most? 🙂

True story, about 20-25 years ago, a radio station in my home town was playing ads for some new local business doing web design.

After hearing the ad on my drive to work for the umpteen billionth time I finally got curious and went to check out their own website (I they’re charging people to build websites, they’re own website must be a pretty awesome demonstration of their skills, right?)

The website looked like absolute garbage and, upon viewing the source, the meta tags clearly betrayed the fact that it was created in Word.

I can only imagine how much money they were paying to run those ads. I even considered the possibility I was being pranked somehow.
