Irremarkable

Or is ICE just another word for the SS?

Always has been

Yknow here’s the thing.

I distinctly remember telling myself “don’t type Dutch” because I always say one when I mean the other.

God I love how Dutch is essentially just how I talk after I’ve had a pint too many. If I can ever get a hand on German, Dutch is the next language on my list.

Sometimes I truly do love the absurdity of my country

Yeah I’m sure I’d probably be using chatgpt these days if I were still in school instead of paying the frankly stupid amount Chegg cost.

I imagine it varies quite a bit depending on the subject and who’s doing the answers. There were 3 or 4 answer authors that I learned to recognize as consistently quite good in the areas I needed it in.

I guess I had a much different experience with Chegg than most.

For a handful of my classes, it was the only way to consistently get similar problems with worked out solutions. I’m not going to pretend I never was lazy and used it to cheat, but most of my usage was of problems I wasn’t assigned so I could see how they were done.

That said, I can’t speak as to how they pay the people that actually do the work, that may be a whole can of worms that I really probably should’ve looked into when I was using it.

You mean to tell me liberals sided with fascists over conceding literally anything to the left? Well I never!

I would say that’s an accurate description for a barbie doll that explodes personally.

I’m sure this varies a lot from district to district, but the districts that I have teacher friends in, they’ve been using Chromebooks almost exclusively for the better part of a decade now

The most common explanation I’ve seen, and imo it makes sense, is that things mostly just work now. Even XP required a helluva lot more troubleshooting and messing with stuff to make it work than today. So you not only have a bunch of people that have no troubleshooting experience, a large portion don’t even know how to properly search for things.

On the flip side, you have a lot more people doing insanely impressive stuff at a lot younger ages because if you have the drive to do it, there’s more material to learn than ever out there.

We tried banning booze once. It didn’t go over well

Cryptobros are mad people have realized they’re full of shit

Some people really don’t think before they speak do they

Of course, which is why I said within reason. As long as you’re making an effort to make your diet varied, I find trying to religiously track macros tends to be fairly counterproductive for most people, as it makes the whole process far more of a pain in the ass.

shrimp and tilapia are fairly cheap

This varies hugely based on location, primarily distance from the ocean. Pound for pound, beef and pork are far cheaper than basically any seafood in my region.

As long as calories in < calories out, the source of those calories matter much less (within reason). You could lose weight eating nothing but oreos and hostess snack cakes as long as calories in < calories out. Not great for you for obvious reasons, not least of which vitamin deficiencies, but you’d lose weight.

Yeah this is honestly an order of magnitude less that I would’ve thought

And for those of you who are in a similar situation as me, where your presidential vote for the most part doesn’t matter (Trump’s going to win by a minimum of 15 points in my state), your votes on down ballot issues do matter.

Local and state elections are where change starts. So get out there and vote, even if it’s mostly doing harm reduction.

Something like that, yeah. Didn’t personally have an actual practical use for it, but it was certainly a nice thing to have.

Samsung phones used to be able to measure heart rate along with blood oxygenation. Not sure when they stopped, but I know one of my old galaxy’s had it, either the 5 or 8.
