¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I’m not out there tailgating people and passing, but I’m sure as hell wishing they’d piss off back home and let those that know how to drive get where they’re going
I don’t care what you think, and I’ll die on this ditch.
HILL! This… damnit
So you’re the dickweed out on the roads doing 10 mph in the snow.
Stay home
Some of us know how to drive in the snow
(Slow on ice is acceptable, but if it’s an ice storm, stay home anyway. No reason to wind up in a ditch because you wanted Twinkies)
Imagine being an animated skeleton.
Imagine that skeleton has a thin layer of nerves over the bones. You know, for touching things
Imagine being allergic to gluten
Imagine your bones itching because your asshole roommate gave you glutenous snacks

That necromancer was a dick btw
‘Was there anything else on the dinner menu?’
‘Vole-au-vents and Cream of Rat,’ said Gimlet. ‘All hygienically prepared.’
‘How do you mean, “hygienically prepared”?’ said Carrot.
‘The chef is under strict orders to wash his hands afterwards.’
The assembled dwarfs nodded. This was certainly pretty hygienic. You didn’t want people going around with ratty hands.
I just couldn’t get through it. But to each his own, I had a good friend who refused to read Pratchett’s Thief of Time because “books need chapters” lol
I have a friend that grew up reading the Wheel of Time series. He talked it up a lot. I got through the first two books and couldn’t keep going. He said, “It gets really good at the end of book three. Book four is amazing. Books five, six, and seven are only okay. There’s a couple more that are really good, but the last book falls flat.”
And I realized that’s probably how people that never watched Star Wars experience it after we recommend the movies to them. “This one specific movie is amazing, and those two are pretty okay. That one was good in its time and I like it for nostalgia. We didn’t talk about how the movie series ended. Want to watch the cartoons?”
Sometimes I’m scrolling and my thumb gets lazy and goes sideways and I upvote or downvote things unintentionally.
It’s the only explanation that makes sense
Sweet! Imma make Mr Bones Wild Ride
It’s hyperbole, but inspired by this outfit
Mine was Padme dressing in BDSM gear around the incel monk with an obvious crush on her, and then saying he made her uncomfortable when he started creeping on her
Generally I think women should be able to wear what makes them feel pretty/empowered/safe without getting creeped on, but goddamn, read the room chica!
Also, “I hate sand”. Kenobi H Christ, it’s awkward
that she could use the force
Except she couldn’t. She was Force sensitive, but had no training and couldn’t “use” the Force. And he had no idea he had children until after ANH. If he felt any connection at all to Leia he could have easily dismissed it as knowing Bail during the Clone Wars and that her family connection to Bail.
My actual biggest issue is that Mara Jade isn’t canon
he hasn’t figured it out yet
lol
Barbie song, hands down
Lots of walls of text in the comments. I’m sure the advice is good, I just don’t have the focus to read that much lol. I’ll keep it short
Two things:
Take a positive inventory. This can be hard, so maybe make a list, and write down one positive each day, then review the list daily.
Don’t compare your insides to other people’s outsides. You will never gain contentment comparing yourself to others

On one hand, it’s stupid as hell to store a firearm anywhere but in a safe/cabinet designed for them. An oven is another level of stupid
On the other, I used to store our cast iron Dutch oven in the oven and I can’t tell you how many times I started preheating the oven and then remembered to take it out. Usually after its oil seasoning started to heat up
Ok so I’m an absolute novice at this stuff, but basically DNS tells your computer where on the Internet a particular website is located. Its IP address. Your router will likely default to the DNS server your ISP provides. My router, and I would guess most others, allows one to change which DNS server their computer uses. There is a list of DNS servers one can use, and among them is OpenDNS, owned by Cisco. Provided the Jem’Hadar don’t attack, I should be good.
I’m reaching the end of my knowledge here, hope that summary helped
I know most of these words.
Thank you for posting this, I changed my router to point to Open DNS
TIL
Just stay away from nvidia on Linux and you are golden.
I’m sorry but this is the kind of condescending bullshit that pushes me away from Linux
I got a 3070TI for half off MSRP for open box in the middle of the crypto bubble, and I’m not buying another GPU until I absolutely have to.
You want more people to embrace Linux? Make it work on startup without jumping through a bunch of hoops, on the hardware we already own.
Your lived experience with Windows is yours, and I’m glad you have a system that works for you. I don’t have the time or mental energy to learn, not just a new OS, but also all of the bugs that go with it.
Look, I get it. I’m putting my apprentice in my old work van, and as I’m looking at the old heap I’m remembering all the little quirks it has that I’ve developed blind spots for. Blind spots they don’t have. Quirks that are actually problems. I know there are problems with windows that I ignore because I know how to work around them. I know the workarounds because I’ve been using Windows since 3.11. I didn’t have that experience with Linux, and neither does my wife. A woman who once nearly bricked our computer falling for an Indian call center scam.
When this rig bites the dust, I’ll probably build a Linux gaming box and just tell her to get used to the OS. For now, we’re using Windows
Also HP is shit and I’d gladly put any HP exec in the hospital if I met them
You have to go faster to get on top of the snow. Like a speedboat. Especially in a rear wheel drive vehicle. I recommend the Dodge Viper
(/jk, in case it wasn’t obvious)
All jokes aside, there’s a vast difference between driving slower in inclement weather and doing 10 mph in a 40, as the top commenter suggested. Now, was my original comment a bit of a shitpost? A little tongue-in-cheek? Sure!
At the end of the day, we just want to get home safe. But if conditions are bad enough to be doing 1/4 of the speed limit just to be safe? Stay home. People that drive that too slow in the snow are just as dangerous as those that drive too fast. And it’s not just ability, but equipment as well
