The War On Drugs is mostly a racist political policy from Nixon to prevent minorities and hippies voting.

Alcohol is hard to control and too closely tied to many social occasions.

I tried to convince my mom Diablo 2 was good because the goal is to defeat the devil.

Who dies at mutter?

I'm sure there's lots of cases where it could be deadly without good enunciation.

I used to do that. But then I realized it was faster to redownload than copy over from my HDD. I have gigabit fiber internet though.

Edit: I had a really crappy HDD though

It's interesting that it flipped around 2010. If you zoomed into just the last 15 years it would look negatively correlated.

Agnostic Vampire: Foolish hunter, I am far more powerful than you. You have no chance at success.

Hunter: Yeah, I really don't know. You look really strong but I'm really strong too.

Agnostic Vampire: Ahhh!!! Your uncertainty weakens me!

Hunter: Oh wow, this feels like a trap. Now I'm even more uncertain.

Agnostic Vampire: Ahhhhh!!!

I was taught about it in high school history 15 years ago in a deep red state. I had to Google it to remember any details about it though. It was definitely taught as a complete failure that made the Great Depression worse and started a trade war.

They upload a ton to YouTube, but it's mostly on their shorts channel. I'm sure they upload to TikTok and stuff also.

I'm an exmo. Gender and sex is doctrinally binary, I always wondered how intersex children would be treated. Thanks for sharing. There were lots of things that made me leave, but I always disagreed with the church's stance on LGBTQI+ issues.

You've convinced me a little bit. Some of those flags do look good. Definitely not every flag though.

I have small hands and my kids use it without complaining. It's bigger than a Switch, but not too much bigger. I've traveled with it plenty.

This isn't surprising to me. I know that this might not be strictly relevant to this community, but I thought I'd share anyway.

I live in a conservative state that has restricted a lot of women's health services(abortions). We had a really great family doctor, she was my wife's OB, she was my kids pediatrician, she even delivered my youngest. She moved to New Zealand over a year ago and we are still upset over it.

We have multiple friends and acquaintances that had to go to a neighboring state for a "procedure" because hospitals in my state refuse to do anything that medically is related to abortions. One friend had a miscarriage and needed a procedure to remove remaining tissue in her uterus and she had to go to another state, even though there wasn't an embryo in there anymore.

It's nuts. I'd love to get out of here, but we have young kids and all of our family is local.

The Phoenix Project (and The Unicorn Project) by Gene Kim really opened my eyes up as an engineer and made me feel like I could start fixing the problems I was seeing on my team, on my project, and in my organization.

I started reading The Manager's Path by Camille Fournier and have really appreciated how straightforward and relevant it is.

IMHO, it's a horrible hack that is just broken. It's obscure and we need to rewrite it because it has a bad structure. ^X^Cquit^[ESC][ESC]^C

Help help! He's measuring my velocity!

 
 
 
 

Is that term even used anymore? Feels like it was everywhere a couple years ago.
