Exactly. State level politicians have more control over your life than federal. And they are more accessible.

Hell, if you wake up early enough, you can drive to your state reps office and shit in her purse if you want and only be 30 minutes late to work.

Yes. Finder is just some app you can move files with on macOS.

Hey, since this is the Sarah Silverman Show appreciation comment chain…

Can anyone tell me where to get a Tab Cola track suit? I want one for real so much.

Goblins were Chaotic. Lawful was civilized. Your adventurer was probably Lawful.

To see where this comes from you’d have to read Moorcock’s Elric saga.

My dad was born in 1932. If some fat bearded hippie had started talking “rape and whores” around women, my dad would have punched him in the face. If no woman was around, he would have just told the pudgy incel to piss off. That’s the kind of sexism that existed back then among most decent folks.

Finder is macOS equivalent of Windows Explorer (maybe, it’s been a while). I assume Linux desktop suites have various similar processes. In other words, a second optional layer (with more features) to access runtime libc file manipulation api.

Boy oh boy would you hate AppleScript. This is what I have to type to throw files in the trash instead of deleting them.

tell application ”Finder” to delete POSIX file “/full/fucking/path/to/file”

Oh, man. Vendors of OCR software can make big money now by rebranding as “AI-powered”.

Since you know the math, how long before it evaporated? Also, at what distance would an object feel 1G of acceleration?

I’ll bet Eminem could find a way

So you are a hypothetical object.

If “mildly infuriating” is just a synonym for “annoying” then I’d say this post nails the theme perfectly.

I’m not debating. It is not a matter of opinion. I’m doing you the courtesy of informing you how the entire rest of the world uses the term.

If action A looks for thing X, and it finds thing X, then the test is positive. If action A fails to find thing X, then the test is negative.

If action A claims to find thing X, but later confirmation determines that thing X is not really there, then this situation is called “false positive”.

If action A claims fails to find thing X, but later confirmation determines that thing X is actually there, then this situation is called “false negative”.

That thing X may subjectively be considered an unwanted outcome has **nothing ** to do with the terms used.

Just so you know, if your doctor calls and tells you that your HIV test is positive, you probably shouldn’t run out and celebrate.

Please tell me that you are mistaken.

In the 90s there was this purple dinosaur from a children’s TV show that everyone seemed to hate. I don’t know anything about him or why we were supposed to hate him. To know anything about him you would have to have watched a show for 3 year olds, so if you did that then you deserve to be annoyed by it. Right?

But why did we evolve a hook & loop clasp to hold the top of our skull closed?

I played football 🏈 in middle school and high school. Watching it is okay to me but I won’t do it voluntarily.

Even worse, if I’m forced to watch sports too many times I go crazy wanting to play. In my 20s , friends were into World Cup ⚽️, and day off, sunny outside, cool breeze, and we’re in a bar watching a game on TV. I snap and start going to pickup soccer games in the city. Same thing in my late 30s: my sons peewee football games drive me crazy, and I have to start joining local rugby league practices.

Finally, in my early 40s, I had the money to do a dream: motorcycle racing. But it’s so hard to get to do it even with enough money: join club, wait for track day and so on. I was still trying to lose weight to buy one of those back-protector suits when I discover Moto GP. And suddenly, something clicked. I finally understood how some people can watch sports. I never did made it to the track, but I can watch a motorcycle race on TV and really enjoy it. Without going crazy.

Am I the only one who heard this comment in Lil Johns voice?

Same, but a year ago.

Also, Temu has tried to take all the shopping search results from Bing/DDG. So those results are trash now.
