What is the reference to Wal-Mart about?

There’s a lot of storylines about this in Robert B. Parker’s (otherwise delightful) novels lol. Embarrassing.

People are trying to post the answer and it’s getting censored lol. The term is “core’s bath,” but replace the “c” with “wh”.

This is outrageous; it’s unfair

The context that you’re missing here is that puberty, especially the testosterone-fueled one, is consequential whereas delaying puberty is not. Also, your working concept of “what percentage of people are going to sign up for hormone replacement or gender-affirming surgery and then regret it later” is just not in line with reality. Regret does happen, of course, but it is rare.

“issue” in this context means “offspring,” by the way. “Burthen” is an archaic version of “burden”.

Oh, Linux started being like that some 3 or 4 years ago for me. Of course, it depends to some extent on the actual games you want to play. Destiny 2 is apparently never gonna run.

On Windows, there used to be (possibly a third-party application) a desktop widget that had a “turtle”, and if you clicked on the widget it would drop a little pixel of food, and the turtle would slowly walk over to it and consume it. I thought that was really cool.

Currently considering Alien: Isolation at 75% off/ $10, Vampire Survivors at 25% off / $3.75…

They’re not the same thing, though. If you use infantilizing language with people of one sex until they’re 40, yeah, people are going to notice that and think it’s weird. I used to have a ton of unexamined behaviors like that before I worked on it a fair amount, and yeah, I was pretty lonely back when…

How long have you been together, sorry if you answered elsewhere and I missed it?

Interesting if true

What’s the quote that Mehdi is talking about, then?

Can someone remind me what Hank is actually yelling to Jesse in this scene? Fuck I need to watch this show again

“They” in this sentence denotes Americans collectively, not just Americans who drink. Although yes, in actual fact outside the world of grammar, it’s only the alcohol-drinking Americans who are consuming more alcohol, the sentence doesn’t break “Americans” into subgroups in the way that your sentence implies.

When I first saw this, I thought the implication was that they used real archers and the actors protected themselves by wearing these devices that would somehow block and capture the arrows, which would also miraculously never miss

Did they stop using these? Looks just as good as CGI… Actor is probably a lot more aware of it…

It’s horrifying to me that any of these fucking games are running outside userspace. Is anti cheat the only reason why that is necessary? Why is it necessary for anti cheat?

And yet with Firefox+ublock it is still 10000000 times better than its competitors.

Rogan is an idiot, but did you know that his podcast is the most popular one in the world? It has 16 million subscribers, I think just on Spotify. “Alt right” is too reductive; this would be an excellent move for Harris.
