Nah Moissanite is still one of the hardest materials on earth at 9.5 on the mohs scale. Ain’t shit gonna scratch that

Sounds like a one piece arc tbh. “Thank you for feeding me. I will now dismantle your (corrupt) local government”

Yeah but the alternative is “you can’t eat modern food from absolutely anywhere” because, for example, tomatoes have only been in italy since they were imported from the Americas

In case it wasn’t clear to everyone, the end goal here is not banning porn, but to classify being gay, trans, etc, as sexually arousing and ban any speech by anyone in those groups, followed by banning those groups.

Yeah I super get this. Back at the height of the whole “friend zone” thing I had been hanging out with a friend one on one very regularly and began crushing on her, asked her out at some point, she said she needed to focus on other things. A semester or two later, I asked if that had changed due to different circumstances in her life and she gave me a more direct no. She was pretty integrated into my friend group and my feelings were pretty badly hurt because we had been very close. Friends in that group would go on to ask why I’d never asked her out, under the assumption she was interested, and when I did eventually start dating someone else she tried to “talk me up” to that girl in a way that felt like sabotage to me. It’s hard to balance those feelings while remaining friends with someone. I was definitely at risk for falling down an incel hole around that time. Glad I didn’t

It is now. 222% spike at dominos, which appears to be one of very few open this early.

And, as a reminder, the third biggest anti-climate lobbyist in the world, who has consistently made “EVs aren’t viable until we have solid state batteries in a decade” statements for years to deliberately impede competitors efforts to push EVs.

But it’s okay, because MY company is AHEAD OF THE CURVE on those 95% losses

It’s always a jarring experience, going from doing it constantly to not at all. You’re not the only one in that boat at the moment

Time to sue my credit card company for preventing my purchases, but failing to prevent a purchase that was detrimental to me

Agreed. Fear and Hunger has it’s issues and I would not broadly recommend it to anyone. I would also say that the FREQUENCY of sexual assault in the game, and the presence of some weirdly sexual status effects like anal bleeding are a bit overboard. That being said, when one of the earliest enemies can sexually assault you, or maim your character in a way that leaves you able to keep playing, but effectively crippled, it really nails home not just that the world is dark, but that your assumptions about what is in the game don’t apply here. Anything could happen. REALLY anything. And exploring a harsh, hostile world with that expectation set is one of the best parts of the game, because it’s a unique experience that you just can’t get at that quality anywhere else.

Listen, Pythagoras gives us the hands down best way to tell intelligent life visiting earth that we’re intelligent. Drawing a right triangle and marking the sides with 3 dots, 4 dots, and 5 dots immediately demonstrates that we are a sapient species that has developed mathematics with no need for a device or language. Of course, we’re all carrying devices these days, so maybe that’s no longer relevant.

It depends. The problem with purity tests is that you’re never 100% pure. It’s why even vegans hate vegans: you can never be vegan enough. I try not to judge, but I would judge if a friend, for example, bought a diesel truck with no use for it, or a cybertruck in general. That’s doing actual, active damage, at the expense of you as a person, why are you doing it?

Not to mention google has fought to replace real PCs in grade school computer courses with chromebooks, which are glorified tablets. Recent gens simply aren’t as familiar with proper computers as phones and tablets.

Sounds like the kind of place the US would invade

If having human rights is dependent upon who’s in power at the moment, you don’t have human rights.
