And here I’m wondering what he used for the enema vessel. Hydrochloric acid absolutely wrecks plastic in no time at all, it does significant damage to metals fairly quickly as well. I’m going to assume it was glass.

It could mean a myriad of things. There’s no telling unless she actually wants to.

Anything from “this person isn’t worth my effort” to “I want to appear smaller/weaker than them” are completely possible. You won’t know the truth… possibly ever. Even if you ask directly it’s entirely possible you won’t hear the truth. Stop thinking about it so much, and since you know that’s how it’s going to be, loosen up your handshakes a bit for her.

I can say I was long ago when it was roughly “women’s rights should be equivalent to men’s rights” in terms of personal, work, social values and features.

These days and especially in the last 10 years I don’t think the umbrella of feminism is large enough to encompass all of the discrimination I have seen through my time existing.

The long and the short of it is people’s rights should be similar when applicable, the same when possible.

I have an emotional support brit I vent to at times, and they in return vent back to me about their day. Since we’re not on the same continent and generally don’t hang out with the same groups it’s very relieving to be able to tell someone literally anything about yourself and know that information is safely sealed a significant portion of the world away from you.

I interviewed for one. It’s was an “electric company” which offered people a “better rate” on their bills. It was a variable rate that wasn’t guaranteed to ever be lower overall.

By going out and being social. For me the issue isn’t anything more than self doubt and overthinking dumb stuff that others don’t actually care about. Head empty, go places.

I absolutely can’t focus on one person if two are talking about roughly the same thing at the same time. The only way for me to take in any information is unfortunately to apologize to both of them and explain that while I’m glad they both know how to handle the situation I’m asking about, I can’t handle the information overload of both of them explaining it at the same time.

At which point I have to re-ask the same person I asked the first time to explain it.

There are always moments in someones life where they have to stop and look around them to see how things have been moving along and if they are moving in a direction which is acceptable. It’s in those moments that one might realize the life they’re living is a bit lopsided in terms of give and take. From there the extrapolation of if being off balance is acceptable to that person given the struggles of those around them is worth continuing down that path. And in the final push of Altruism, a realization that the world will never be balanced and as long as you have enough, then you should do whatever you can do make sure others are brought up to a level of enough to not cause undo suffering.

I am willing to admit that there are a small subsection of people who cannot be appropriately helped as they are unwilling (but completely able) to help themselves, and any efforts to aid them will only make them reliant on the assistance.

Thank you. This is the first pi day since I learned of it that I was reminded early enough in the day that I can get down on some pie.

Similarly, 40ish hours for an mmo binge back in the day.

That is/was the plan, I was just wondering what insights people who actually know about privacy stuff would have overall. And I have been educated nicely thanks to a bunch of the folks on here.

I rotate my password every 6 months at this point. It’s about as secure as a human who wants to remember a password could be. It’s 20+ characters with all the various password needed inclusions.

And yeah, I can access it through an external application without issue. But if I ever want to change settings or make new email rules it becomes an issue.

Fairly sure Gmail wasn’t around 28 years ago.

I recently purchased Affinity photo, which did most of what I used to use Adobe for. No subscription, one time purchase, and I’ll likely never need to worry about that again.

I tried gimp a few times and found it frustrating to use.

I know it’s not really the topic you considered… But yes, I do believe every drug should be legalized. If you consider the benefits alone it should be obvious that it is the correct choice.

Drugs made by lisenced people/locations that use safe ingredients and are open to litigation if they end up making a bad batch.

The revenue collected isn’t going to some drug lord overseas, it’s going into the country which you live instead.

Dispensaries can be used secondary as a councelling/rehabilitation center.

The long and the short if it is that if people want them, they will get them. I live in a place that hasn’t legalized weed yet… But if you are around certain neighborhoods at around 9am, it starts to smell very obvious that legality doesn’t matter. While currently that’s not surprising as many states near mine have legalized, we’ll before that happened things were exactly the same.

I don’t want people to be addicted to drugs, but I don’t see why we as a society shouldn’t benefit at all from someone who is.

For me it’s not about TikTok. It’s about using whatever flimsy, poorly worded law they will make to ban a platform I don’t use to open the door for further bans and possible censorship in the future. A platform should be allowed to function if it can. If it’s horribly made, or supremely unprofitable it’ll find its own way out. I don’t use it, I don’t plan on ever using it, and honestly it doesn’t affect my daily life outside of my mother in law thinking that some of the pallet crafts on there are worthwhile and me having to explain that they’ll look good for a moment and then fall apart rather quickly.

Geocities was over the hump at that point, but i guess that makes it even more true.

Rubbing alcohol on a q-tip, give it a good once over, if the q-tip isn’t pure white, repeat.

Once clean wait for it to air dry and give it a go.

You take your fractional pennies and get out of here with those rough guesses I can’t refute or deny!

I’d honestly be surprised if a majority of any social space was bots… However I do believe a majority of initial posts are bot generated. Especially for news based spaces. It just makes sense to plug in a bot to whatever biased news source you subscribe to and just have it post new articles every 5 minutes.

Much like the average American voter, I believe in that 50% silent users who are often forgotten. 25% active users, and that other 25% can be whatever ghosts in the system the OP is after.

My numbers are also butthole deriven.

It was many years ago and I just realized that it wasn’t a sumo, just an absolutely monstrous hand that for whatever reason I recollected as a sumo wrestler.
