He’s parting a red-lighted dry ice cloud sea.

Right? You know you’re pretty morally horrendous if during a you vs. UHC matchup, we’re all cheering for UHC.

I don’t see much talk of Lemmy on Reddit, but I’m primarily only on Reddit for a small handful of niche subreddits where no one talks about these things anyway.

That’s pretty good romance language gibberish. The kind that looks like it should mean something but you’re ten words in and your brain goes, “no meaning detected in this writing.”

It’s also kind of weird that Dale really, really looks like 1990s Gary Cole, but according to IMDB, Gary Cole only did a one episode guest spot on that show.

Isn’t this double jeopardy then? Being charged twice separately for the same crime?

No. Legally speaking, double jeopardy isn’t a provision against being charged multiple times for the same crime, it’s a provision against being charged multiple times for the same crime by the same sovereign entity.

The federal government and the state government of New York are two different sovereign entities, so they can both prosecute him for the same or extremely similar charges for the same crime, and double jeopardy is not invoked.

Comes with a fresh glass of blue milk as well apparently. Paging Luke Skywalker!

I’ve noped out on entire office days before where I’ve been “digestively energetic” so to speak. I’m not putting myself or coworkers through that at the office.

We’ve definitely seen in the past that availabilities vary by region.

There’s some component in your docking setup (the dock or the TV) that’s causing this. I regularly dock to a 1440p monitor and a 1080p projector with zero issues.

That being said, there are multiple docks out there (even the official one) that don’t jibe with both the Deck and every display and thus give a subpar experience, as there are widespread reports of that. You kind of have to luck into the compatibility of both of those components, and even then there are also TVs out there that aren’t really dock-happy with anything.

Try docking to someone else’s TV next time you go visit someone, if it’s fine then you know it’s either your TV or your TV and dock not liking each other.

With jobs, it’s just the job market right now. Companies aren’t interested in keeping good relations with applicants. Expect to just never hear back on a significant number of your applications.

Never in the history of me sending thumb responses in work chats has it ever meant “whatever you say you fucking dumbass.”

It’s primarily used to show acknowledgement. It’s the office worker equivalent of “10-4.”

Seems like you have some pretty serious projection issues to work out OP lol

I had no idea of the intentions, but history of the internet says there was maybe 1% chance of being pure and 99% chance of being something malicious, so I just ignored it, figuring it was a bot to dm everyone it could find on the platform.

If Microsoft doesn’t 1) come at this from an angle of adjusting Windows into a great handheld experience, and 2) releasing this as an open platform PC, they’re toast.

There are a handful of people who don’t have a handheld currently who will blindly follow the branding, but I doubt a single person who is currently enjoying the openness of a Deck, Go, Ally, et cetera will voluntarily blunder back into a freedom-restricting walled garden of any sort.

The IPA is fantastically interesting.

I don’t agree with people who think it should replace our standard alphabets and syllabarries (it is jarring, at least in my opinion, to essentially read other people’s accents from written text when they don’t match your own), but it can be pretty useful in some situations… where you’re actually studying accents, or the most common ways things are said in other languages.

A little old school here, but Tom Petty and the HB were always fantastic live, I got to catch them several times.

I also once was socially-dragged to a Sheryl Crow concert at the Ryman, and even though she’s not usually my thing, that show was fantastic. She had a bunch of folks from the Nashville Symphony Orchestra playing with her band that night, and I’ve never seen a group of classical musicians have so much fun. They really made it an unbelievable show. If you’re ever there and can catch ANYTHING at the Ryman, do it… the acoustics are absolutely insane.

My favorite concert story was that we went to a “Best of the 80s” concert in Indiana in the late 90s when I was a teen (bands that performed included Wang Chung, A Flock of Seagulls, and a few one-hit wonders I’m struggling to remember right now). At the end, the promoters took the mic and apologized to everyone that the show was ending a little early, the closing band, Missing Persons, couldn’t make it. My friends and family I was there with laughed our asses off the entire way out of the arena, but it didn’t seem like a single other person there got it.

Pretty sure the game theorists channel on youtube did that one several years back. It’s been a minute since I watched it but a search should pull it for you.

Middle age guy here (if I live out my family’s typical life expectancy).

I try not to worry about death, as it’s something I can’t change. Doesn’t mean I’m ready for it to happen tomorrow, just that I realize that it’s going to happen when it happens and isn’t worth wasting thought on outside of preparing affairs for it once it gets closer.

I’m not religious, but I’ve had an experience (and others have had experiences, such as out-of-body NDEs where the details that they witnessed in places and circumstances they shouldn’t have been able to see were later verified by others) that indicate to me that we continue on somehow after death… it’s not a nihilistic void.

But even if it were one… that’s not so bad. You wouldn’t perceive stimuli, you wouldn’t notice time passing… the unbelievably long mass of practically eternal time between your death and the death of this universe would be the blink of an eye for you. And if scientific theories about Poincare recurrence of the universe are correct, then eventually you’ll go trhough life again from the same starting point, none the wiser that you didn’t exist for an unfathomably long time.

In short, try not to worry about it. You can’t change it, and once you get there, there’s either something or absolutely nothing afterward… and you’ll be fine either way.

Edit: spelling

If you’re doing them, any time before the deadline from here is fine.

If you’ve got complex stuff going on and are using a tax service or accountant, I’d say the best window is the back half of February through the first half of March. This misses all the people on the front end who rush to get them done the femtosecond they have all of their documents, and also misses the people on the back end scrambling for the late-season rush.

Just tell me that you turn the water on pre-hork instead of touching the fixtures with hork hands, and I’m totally fine with your suggestion.
