Some people don’t attach value or sentimentality to $5 valentine’s day cards and would rather just spend time with their partner and spending time picking out a good card for each other can be fun. I personally like the funny ones so it can be fun to pick those out, show them to your partner, have a laugh together, and then put them back. The card brings the same amount of joy, but you don’t have to spend money or throw it away later.

Blasphemy! How can you look at that perfect hairy specimen and not think that is a good shape?

Storage units are terrible about this shit too. They advertise $30/mo and after fees you’re paying closer to $50/mo.

To be fair, I suspect the average adult in real life probably only remembers, and uses, 5th grade math.

At least you still get a cookie!

My belief is that the animus towards the Satanic Temple is a mostly projection at this point.

My belief is that it’s pure ignorance. Do you think this guy actually looked beyond the name to learn a little more about the organization and still decided to bomb the place? No, any Christian that hates the Satanic Temple does so purely based on the name and their assumptions.

Maybe the smart TV’s are being subsidized by the money they make selling the data they collect from you?

It’s a tough job, but somebody’s gotta do it.

Cheaper than a kid!

For those that are confused by the name change, Jack is an old nickname for John. It was most popular in the 17th century and has been on the decline since, so I don’t think many people today use it that way anymore. Or any people younger than 70, anyway.

Of a similar origin, there’s Jim for James, Dick for Richard (giggity), Harry for Henry, and Sally for Sarah, among others. I think some of these are more popular than others, but it seems to me that they are mostly out of use in general, though some of the nicknames live on as normal names.

Oh shit, I think I just discovered a kink. I have always enjoyed ripping open those bags, but I have never had the opportunity to rip fishnet stockings. Now, it occurs to me that I may really enjoy ripping open a pair of fishnet stockings to get to the…fruit…inside.

And mods. There are a TON of mods for CS1.

But what am I going to do while I’m pooping!? Read the news!?

He’s a laid back Aussie dude that does mostly ocean-based solo beach camping catch and cooks.

I’m on the other side of the world, half a days travel from the ocean, so his channel provides me an interesting and often beautiful perspective of a life very different than my own.

With the amount of trash in the ocean, I wouldn’t be surprised if even an uncontacted tribe is running around in mismatched sandals and drinking out of old plastic bottles.

A guy I watch on YT has done a couple of short shipwreck survival challenges on some of the little islands off the coast of Australia. He starts barefoot and with no supplies and within an hour of scavenging the beach he has a pair of sandals, a half dozen bottles, both plastic and glass, and usually some fishing line or rope.

Thanks for the sources; however, the National Library of Medicine is using data from 1993 and the other doesn’t specify by how much the violations rates are increasing or what the rates even are and the link to the underlying data appears to be dead.

edit: I had time to look into this further and it appears that it was very common to fudge the paper logbook, but as of 2017 they’re required to use electronic logbook devices (ELD’s), so that is no longer possible. Yes, sleep deprivation due to violating the hours of service regulations was definitely a thing in the past, but I can’t find any data that indicates that it still is.

Where are truck drivers staying awake for 24 hours? In the US, there are daily and weekly limitations and rest requirements, including a mandatory 10hr consecutive rest period every day.

It looks like it could be a frame from a deposition for the 90’s MS antitrust suit.

I think that they’re making perfect the enemy of good…and they can because people keep throwing money at them. Most dev teams don’t have that luxury.

It sounds like you could have always bought the ones that you want!
