I love a woman who knows what she wants and takes steps to get it <3

I love the little demon guy just like “Hey riding that cart looks fun. Ima do it.”

I hear they’ve got quite a big ball of twine

Fire is a natural and necessary part of many ecosystemsm. It keeps parasitic insect populations down, stuff like ticks and chiggers, and some plant species rely on fire to prepare the soil for seeds and even is required for some plants to release their seeds. In dry ecosystems like the western USA it also consumes old dead plant material, reducing the fuel available for future fires and reducing fire severity overall. Many foresters and fire fighters advocate for increasing prescribed burns, essentially forest fires that we light on purpose in cooler and wetter times of the year to consume the fuel without risking a catastrophic fire that is difficult to control. I just think that’s neat.

I was going to make a speed running joke here but it made me sad so you get this instead.

That’s… not how grey hair works. Oh unless she died it red and let it grow out… Hmm

If you make a bootable linux usb drive you can do whatever you want with all windows stupid files without even having to install linux.

I mean it’s not a secret. It’s lead. There’s lead in the water down there.

If the irrational hatred of gay people is similar at all, these people are closeted trans people inflicting their hatred of themselves and their own feelings on the world. Probably.

I find the militaries obsession with push ups kind of baffling. It’s a fine exercise, but you quickly run into diminishing returns just doing loads of push ups. There’s no progressive overload, so eventually doing more just becomes fatiguing rather than productive for muscle growth or strength gain. They must know that at this point, so why would they still make people do so many push ups?

Reading between the lines here, someone is fucking with the market on purpose. Drop the prices so low the competition goes out of business trying to keep up, then jack up the prices to make it all back multiple times over. Businesses don’t drop the price of products for no reason.

Long ago the four nations lived in harmony. But everything changed when the business nation attacked. Only the regulations could stop them, but when the world needed them most, they vanished.

The many flaws of d&d is why I strongly prefer gurps.

They didn’t have zero experience. There were two full rocket designs that were built and flown before rocket 3, hence why it was called rocket 3. It also achieved orbit successfully two times, which only a limited number of companies have ever achieved.

The first offer wasn’t rejected, they didn’t have the money on hand at the time. Between the first offer and the second they got investor funding together and the cash on hand dwindled, so the second offer was with cash to cover the offer and some to cover running the business between acceptance and closing. After the second offer the board released a statement saying it’s this or liquidate the company, so they went with this because it’s the best outcome for everyone with the current state of things.

Memory unsafe languages will always have value in applications where speed and performance mean anything. Embedded programming and video games are the obvious examples, but pretty much any application taken far enough will eventually demand the performance benefits of memory unsafe languages. Some even require writing assembly directly. Contrary to common dogma, the compiler isn’t always best.

Yeah. She’s not a good digging plastic bimbo. That guy with his hot wife who presumably loves him for who he is clearly lost.

I’m guessing they do, but it does also reduce the life of the concrete. Modern concrete structures would be impossible without rebar, so that makes it a good trade, but it doesn’t change the fact that it’s a trade.

Laughs in yo ho.

It doesn’t feel like there’s any real alternative to Google search. Most of the privacy based search websites are really just Google or Bing on the backend. The only other index is Yandex the Russian one, which, yeah. I’m happy to be proven wrong, but the internet search space is approaching peak enshittification, and it doesn’t look like anyone is stepping up to meaningfully change anything. No private companies seem willing to actually square up with Google, considering the investment it would take. Honestly I don’t see things getting better anytime soon. This is just another symptom of the erosion of the social contract in the US and the rampant greed that’s driving it. Nothing we can do can’t be enshittified by bad actors in this environment. Not to be too US centric, most of the big tech companies are based here so our garbage culture fucks over everyone.
