Wait, I haven’t seen ads on YouTube Premium (yet), and I’m just now realizing this could very likely be because Google knows my wife and I don’t watch sports.

For someone inexperienced, even a “normal” dose can make you sick. A 10mg gummy made me so nauseated I vomited before I could make it to the toilet.

Hey, my enthusiasm is genuine!

On a serious note, you should learn about Graham’s number, it’s legit mind-blowing.

I’m a little confused, that’s pretty typical usage of the word. Or is it because it comes across a little pretentious? As though they’re just trying to cooperate with you to more easily violate your privacy.

I think dems genuinely believe that if Republicans take control of the House, Senate, and Presidency, that they will absolutely implement a nationwide ban, which will reduce access. That implies it’s still a valid concern and not a scare tactic.

And even though overall abortions have increased, there has still been a restriction in access, it’s just that enough people can still afford to overcome those restrictions (for now), as well as Dems pushing to allow meds by mail to help alleviate the restrictions.

But, there have already been unfortunate consequences to the health and lives of women who couldn’t afford to overcome the restrictions, or it was too late, or they were convicted a crime if they did obtain access.

So again, not a scare tactic if they are actual things that are happening, and will just get worse with a nationwide ban.

You seem to be under the misunderstanding that dems want to increase abortions. They want increased access to abortion, but that’s not the same thing.

This really hurts Republicans more than Dems. Let’s say you have a goal of reducing “x”, so you pass a law banning it, but that causes a noticeable increase in the behavior. Your law made things objectively worse towards accomplishing your goal.

If you think the increased occurrence is justified as long as people are punished for it, then you don’t actually care about reducing abortion, you just want to punish people for it.

This just reminded me of a time I was living in England in the late 90s, and a group of friends and I had found an injured grey squirrel. We called animal control for help, and their response was that if we decide to officially report it, they would have to put it down, because it’s considered an invasive species. We ended up just letting the squirrel go, sorry England, for making your map just a tiny bit more grey.

I will typically use the terms asynchronous and parallel when discussing the concepts, but I hadn’t thought about using multitasking until I saw that comment. I mean, even C# calls them “tasks”.

A comment on the YouTube video makes a good point that we already have a better word for the concept of dealing with multiple things at once: multitasking. Using a word that literally means “things happening at the same time” just adds to the confusion, since people already have a difficult time understanding the distinction between multitasking and concurrency.

Just toss your pants and underwear in the nearest trash bin. Problem solved!

Does your lemmy app let you zoom images at all? Or is it still too small when you do?

I’m clumsy enough that I’ve got a “paper cut” from aluminum foil while preparing dinner.

You will, comrade.

I considered editing my post to say the vast majority instead of everybody, but I was hoping you weren’t going to be that pedantic. It was very clear that 13 years ago, reddit was already having the argument because it was so pervasive that all the purists were upset about it.

I just set up Steam Family last night, and it specifically shows my private games under not shared.

Post from 13 years ago, basically agreeing that everyone ignored the “rule” and used upvote/downvote as glorified agree/disagree buttons:

I’ve tried using SFC multiple times and had it work zero times. One time after SFC failed to find anything wrong, I ended up fixing the machine by replacing the system file with a copy from a working machine.

I let one of mine expire a few years ago. Finally decided I wanted to try to register it again, but a squatter is now sitting on it asking for something like $10k $3.6k.

Edit: just double-checked, they lowered the price to only $3595!

For someone who likes to think of himself as a modern Nikola Tesla, he acts much more like Edison.
