With unstable all bets are off.

I’m also gonna stand up right now and storm out without touching my dinner.

I actually am 70 and remember the “oil crisis”. It would be great if there were a major shift in people’s thinking, but the vast majority of people don’t seem to do squat until they really have to. I think that force has driven a lot of history.

Rick, could you stop by my office when you get a sec?

/wrings hands, mutters “bwaa-ha-haaa”

Are those traits neurodivergent or do they just fall into the “people are different” category?

Imagine finding that people your own age ignored it too, like they’re doing right now.

Definitely very echoey in here.

Hello?

The People’s Front of Judea vs the Judean People’s Front

That rascal.

We should just rename our planet Dunning-Kruger World.

Eliminate car repair bills with a bunch of tools and this weird trick!

When they can do transparent aluminum, I’m in!

edit: yes I know there’s a ceramic material called ALON, which the manufacturer calls transparent aluminum because it contains aluminum oxynitride, but I don’t think that’s what Scotty meant. ALON is about 30-35% aluminum, same as the amount of lead in leaded crystal glass, which isn’t “transparent lead”.

Another fun thing about 3 letters: pick any 3 and google them + “trucking”. 9 times out of 10 there will be one or more companies with that name.

Actors usually don’t really eat in TV shows, they just pretend, or they hold food on a fork and gesture with it. The reason is to maintain continuity. Eating changes how the food looks. So when multiple takes are edited together you might see somebody bite off the corner of a piece of toast and then 3 seconds later it’s a whole piece again. Some people make a minor hobby of spotting continuity errors like that.

just fyi - the US national debt is $36 trillion. That’s about $110 million per American. So hey folks, what say we all chip in and get that thing paid off!

But wait, we could just make the billionaires pay it! Sorry no, the combined net worth of all 900-ish billionaires in America is less than $7 trillion. That’s how deep in debt this country is.

Also they had stuff made outta bronze. Do you have bronze? I don’t have bronze.

snot?

Securing the db is more of an ops thing.

LOL not necessarily, especially in software.
