So what they are saying is that it’s perfectly fine to address every man as “her, she” incorrectly, every time. Perfect.

They are not implying all Americans have poor internet, they are implying that most Americans have bad internet and are forced to use it due to non-competition.

Give link or cry.

Full name. Address. Phone number. Credit Card details.

He wants them on his platform asap.

Once that hook catches it’s hard to take out.

“Wait a minute, WE are biotics!”

Because this game costs $40 and they want to release a direct competitor to their own product for $20 month.

It’s a learning tool: practically every user will need more than 2 months of play time.

It’s a good thing I have a copy of this already. Yar har.

I mean, I’m no economist, but if China provides food aid to North Korea who then provides weapons to Russia, it may not look so hot for China.

The time can be a deterrent, but this is why I always have some on the go.

I’ve found, as someone sensitive to acid, that cold brew is much easier on the stomach than traditional iced coffee.

I usually just let a 1:3 ratio of coffee grounds to water sit in a jar in my fridge for two days.

Treat it like a concentrate and add a little water, some ice, and maple syrup.

Easiest cold brew ever.

I start the next batch when the previous is ready to drink. Lasts a few days.

EDIT: and then I realized I was in the Coffee sub. Sorry in advance.

Gonna need a tall ladder.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_winter

Nuclear winter is a severe and prolonged global climatic cooling effect that is hypothesized[1][2] to occur after widespread firestorms following a large-scale nuclear war.[3] The hypothesis is based on the fact that such fires can inject soot into the stratosphere, where it can block some direct sunlight from reaching the surface of the Earth. It is speculated that the resulting cooling would lead to widespread crop failure and famine.

What are they to stop?

I recognize that others have filled the void and answered, but to answer you: what are they to stop?

Not finishing your sentence is almost as great a sin.

A broad funnel ending in jail.

A whole lotta mental gymnastics going on in this thread.

If you never read it you will never know.

There is a BBC audiobook from the 80s which is really good.

The original movie is very good.

The new interpretation is fun but not my cuppa.

A reference to A Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.

It means, “good bye forever”, or some such interpretation.

“White Good, Black Bad” is a pretty easy case to win when it comes to the “should we consider changing how we speak to not look like an asshole” debate.

While the term blacklist does not originate from racist history, it has certainly been adopted by racists before computers, while terms like master and slave have clear links to slavery as a human history: in either case the terms along with others were found to be offensive to a large population and have since been changed to reflect human decency.

Edit: Haha, found the racists. VvV

From Wikipedia:

Various replacement terms for ‘master’ or ‘slave’ have been proposed and implemented. In 2020, GitHub replaced the default ‘master’ git branch with ‘main’.[18] Other replacement names include ‘default’, ‘primary’, ‘controller’, ‘root’, ‘initiator’, ‘leader’, ‘director’, ‘manager’; and for ‘slave’: ‘performer’, ‘worker’, ‘peripheral’, ‘responder’, ‘device’, ‘replica’, ‘satellite’, and ‘secondary’.[18][6][21][22][23] Python switched to ‘main’, ‘parent’, and ‘server’; and ‘worker’, ‘child’, and ‘helper’, depending on context.[7][24] The Linux kernel has adopted a similar policy to use more specific terms in new code or documentation.[22] Other projects and standards have used alternative terms since their inception.

Yes. In the same way that “Master” and “Slave” have been replaced for racist engineering terminology, “Whitelist” and “Blacklist” are replaced with “Allowlist” and “Blocklist”.
