I wish there was a culture where they could say "Oh sorry we fucked that sequel up really bad, let's retcon it and try again"

As it is, one bad sequel can kill a whole fandom because it will never be undone.

Every micro-angstrom and so on.

She typed all lower case though. That means she said it quietly.

If you have to read PDFs regularly having a vertical monitor is a lifesaver.

On the arch wiki for SSDM I found this:

Changes to your display configuration made in a Plasma Wayland session (e.g. monitor layout, resolution, etc) will not persist to SDDM. To make them persist open Plasma's System Settings and navigate to Startup and Shutdown> Login Screen (SDDM) and click "Apply Plasma Settings...". You will need to have permission to perform this action.

You should give that a try

I've just been logging in upside down for a couple years. My monitor's vesa Mount is like 3 inches from the top for some reason so having it upside down is the only way I can get a reasonable ergonomic height

Which display manager are you using?

(A year from now, a report comes out proving that the algo is racist)

But I was told computers can't be racist surprised-pika

Congrats on normalizing to 2017 dollars, however the graph starts at a misleading 260 billion, not zero. I was always told it's considered bad form not to include the little squiggly break lines to show that on bar graphs.

So if the amount spent went from roughly 340 billion to 380 billion, ~10% increase, but the cost/quantity*quality of that food (which is difficult to calculate because of shrinkflation, shittier quality generally, and different items being on the menu) has easily gone up 25% at an absolutely uncontroversial low end, that proves the opposite, that people are eating fast food less than pre-covid.

After the revolution I want his nobel prize taken and awarded to me.

Everyone deserves a few lying in bed all day days a month just because that's a pleasure we're entitled to as people. I've found even that can be "productive" when it's purposeful rest and relaxation. Finding yourself getting out of bed at 1pm (or whatever time that is relative to your schedule) just because you can't stand the taste of your own breath anymore probably isn't that.

Breakneck speed and efficiency in anything can cause the same tunnel vision driving does https://www.emesa-m30.com/tunnel-effect-car/

The couple times I've done indica there was immediately after some unforeseen emergency I had to attend to with people yelling at me, so they're mentally tied to being very frustrated and angry for me now yea

Somehow the universe knows exactly when I'm in a vulnerable state and chooses that moment to strike.

Music was amazing though. I got into a couple new genres that day

An older spare phone with no SIM would work

Heaven forbid there be a video game character with some character. I was thinking she could use a little sun damage too.

 

She knew the waist size of every person (particularly kids) in the area, and would drive around with boxes full of jeans. She would mend, patch, and fit them, and collect any unwanted, worn out, or outgrown denim
