A hotdog is a taco.

"Worker bees can leave

Even drones can fly away

The queen is their slave"

Yeah, I buy a case of these every so often. The label is goofy and probably made by someone who didn’t realize what they were implying chemically, but the ingredients are 100% coconut water. No added sugar. No pulp. Good source of potassium. Really delicious.

Technically not from space since the lower stage never made it past the Karman line, which is 100km above sea level.

10yo me realized that other sized batteries that were also 1.5v could be used as well if I had enough tape and aluminum foil, so then all the flashlight D batteries around the house started to go missing as well.

You could probably write a Hashcat plugin to brute force that pretty easily. Something that tries groupings of keys that are adjacent to one another on qwerty keyboard layouts.

I know this is just for laughs, but from what I’ve read, Jupiter’s gravity well does about as much harm as good.

I’m a long-time Samba fan, but even I wouldn’t run them as DCs in a production environment.

Exactly this. Myspace was great for meeting new people. They even let you search for people in a given area by age, gender, interests, etc. Facebook, from what I remember (deleted mine years ago), was actively hostile towards you meeting people on their site, to the point that if someone added you that had no mutual friends, the site would ask if you knew them in real life.

Yeah, the CAN-SPAM act, as far as I understand it, doesn’t allow them to force you to make an account just to unsubscribe.

From what I’ve read, YouTubers don’t get paid from views that use an ad-blocker, but they still do from views that have premium, so my justification is that I’m helping support the creators I like. I’m also paying for Nebula, which some of the documentary-style creators upload to as well now.

I’m one of the dozen people that bought premium to not have to deal with it. I’m just patiently waiting for alternatives to become more viable so I can jump ship entirely. YouTube is the last remaining Google service I still use.

We still use on-prem Exchange with Microsoft Office at work, and it’s really becoming a problem. Microsoft already auto adds shortcuts for 365 (which we don’t use and doesn’t work with our setup), and the “Mail” app (which also doesn’t work with out setup), and now I have to explain to people to use the regularly titled Outlook icon and not the “Outlook (new)” icon (which again, won’t work with our setup).

See, this is the problem. You either risk getting a ticket by keeping up with the 15mph+ people in the left, or you deal with grandma and grandpa doing 10mph under on the right. So a lot of us end up having to leapfrog back and forth. I just want to maintain my socially and legally acceptable 4mph over.

I agree. I’ve found that a lot of the subjects I hated in school, I ended up finding an interest in later in life on my own. I now think it had a lot more to do with the method of teaching than the material itself.

You mean we’d be in control of the means of production? That’s an interesting idea. We should come up with a recognizable symbol for this new concept. Something simple, like two silhouettes of tools, maybe crossed.

Guessing you mean in your post-2001 books, but this comment has me imagining a Black Mirror style thing where there’s this future prediction in everyone’s school books that all the teachers refuse to talk about.

That only allows DNS-based blocking of domains, which isn’t going to be nearly as effective. A lot of modern ads are served up from the same domain that you’re visiting. Browser-based ad-blocker extensions are in a position to block domains, URLs, and specific parts of the HTML DOM itself. This is going to sound rude, and I’m sorry in advance, but when people bring up pi hole, I assume they aren’t very knowledgeable about how things work.

I started doing this a few years ago, and it made a world of difference. I dislike the whole process of using regular floss; having to wrap it around my fingers and then try to maneuver it around inside my mouth, all while staring at myself in the bathroom mirror is a mental burden. Now I just keep a bag of floss picks in easily reachable places where I tend to spend the most time, and I’ve ended up with really good flossing habits.
