You know, it’s always funny when sci-fi shows have doctors that refer to current year medical practices as “barbaric” or “Savage”, but honestly looking back just 50 years? Same feeling.

200 years ago, the local “doctor” will probably tell you to take a swig of the bottle he just dumped on your wound, because he’s gotta saw it off. Hopefully they at least washed it since it’s last use.

200 years from now? Eh. Doc will wave a light over it, you’ll be fine.

My shower spider gets a reminder of our deal.

“You know the drill. You stay up there, I stay over here, nobody has to be injured today.”

Sometimes the spider decides to come over to my side and gets flushed or squished, but they knew what was expected of them.

Lol. I wasn’t going to be paying full price for a game anyway, but now I’m not paying for gearbox games ever again.

As shitty as things like this are, at least they’re self identifying who needs to be in the Guillotine line.

Just set him on fire here, no need to launch a rocket with all the pollution that will create.

End result is extra crispy lunatic either way.

im guessing some people have political reasons to dislike russia

If you consider trying to genocide a neighboring country “political reasons” I guess.

Manager better be locking his door, replacing windows with walls, and getting armed security that goes with the everywhere.

If my manager pulled this shit, the manager would no longer have a home or vehicle by the following morning. Whether they get caught inside the house doesn’t matter.

Anyone who destroys someone’s life over obvious insecurities “an argument” deserves to have their own life destroyed.

The big one of endgame is Tony Stark commits the single worst crime in the history of the universe by “un-snapping” the half of the universe that was snapped by Thanos 5 years after they disappeared. No accounting for all the people who are dead in the meantime, no accounting for all the awkward conversations of “oh for me I just blinked and now you have two kids and a new wife” or “who are you people and why are you in my house where am I supposed to live now” all because he lacks the imagination to make the universe go back 5 years while keeping Pepper and his daughter the same.

Oh and

. That’s probably more important to most people.

That’s how I felt about infinity war and endgame.

I decided not to watch after finding out it was a 2 parter, then after endgame came out I still hadn’t watched it after a good year and a half.

Then someone spoiled the ending out of nowhere in a post and I decided I’d finally watch it.

I’m impressed you’ve gone this long.

Yeah, I’m getting really tired of people saying “well it’s an illegal order so it doesn’t matter” and not giving it another thought, despite everyone in power treating them as perfectly legal, and nobody doing a goddamn thing to put a stop to it.

If trump issues an executive order calling for executions of minorities, it doesn’t fucking matter how legal it is if the powers that be let people do it, and let Trump stay out of prison.

We aren’t to that point just yet, but I fully believe something on that level is coming, they’ve just got to ease into it so it just doesn’t seem that much worse than the last thing that was done.

Until I see actual consequences that make a difference, my hopes are sitting around 0.

I have everything I need to build an enclosure for my cheap-ass laser. I have things I want to do with the laser when I can use it without smoking up the house. I have not started on it yet.

I have everything I need to make the rc planes I have been designing. Its all sitting on a shelf waiting for me to do my thing.

One of the things has been waiting for me to do my thing since before I moved.

I’ll get to it.

Eventually.

Maybe.

Under five minutes.

I interviewed, accepted the job offer at the end, showed up for my first scheduled shift and found out my manager wasn’t the polite manager I interviewed with.

For the record, I was supposed to start at 9am. It was 8:45 when I walked in.

Manager, literally yelling from about 300ft away: YOU’RE LATE!

Me, confused: I’m 15 minutes early?

Manager: I EXPECT YOU TO BE HERE HALF A HOUR BEFORE EVERY SHIFT, IF YOU’RE LATE AGAIN YOU’RE ON THIN FUCKING ICE

And I turned my happy ass around and walked out.

I don’t care if it was some bullshit tactic to “weed out” people, that is completely unacceptable behavior and in my younger years I have gotten into fist fights over someone speaking to another like that.

I had another job inside a week.

I don’t care if they had someone to fill my spot the next day. It wasn’t worth the time.

An acceptable trade.

Yes. Yes it is.

Personal experience.

I have a 750w inverter plugged into my 12v plug, and it is absolutely more than enough to run the little 500w single plate burner I have.

I have used them together but I don’t do it outside of camping when it’s too rainy to use a fire. It takes forever to cook bacon eggs and pancakes on a single burner.

The barycenter of the earth-sun orbit is within the surface of the sun, therefore the earth is understood to orbit the sun.

The JUPITER-Sun orbit barycenter, however, is outside the surface of the sun.

I liek spec

The interviewee is getting an opportunity.

Yes, thank your masters for considering you for further exploitation

This is normal

This is good

This comment belongs in its own post

Not even close to being wrong. No thank you is needed. Honestly I see no reason to thank them at the end of the interview.

And no down votes from normal people, this is absolutely an insane person posting this.

I’ll probably get down voted for this opinion, but the earth is round and orbits the sun.

Ah. Well that’s a relief, I removed foxit, and never had anything Adobe.

I open the pdfs in inkscape to pull the vector files and save them as an svg. There’s probably a simpler way, but this allows me to open the vector in a lot more programs like my laser software and my CAD programs.

The only pdfs that get printed like a normal person are small rc planes and the files are from trusted sources.

It’s nice to know I can do a little extra to protect myself from pdf based attacks though, thanks for the info!
