It used to be a standard thing that young people said to express disapproval.

"Ms Johnson said I can't make up the homework I missed because I forgot my bag yesterday."

"Sorry bro, that's gay."

Meters are fine too, they're basically just yards.

Kilometers, degrees Celsius, and kilograms can fuck right off.

Isn't mumble hot garbage? My planet side outfit memes on it whenever it gets brought up.

I work in somewhat high-level banking, and while I admit that I assumed a government institution would be better about this than private companies, this sounds very par for the industry.

Things are less fucked at lower levels, like operations or retail, but I've never heard of someone working in high levels of banking that didn't have a laundry list of potentially actionable HR complaints.

People who prefer android because it's open source usually use open source android because that's what they want.

That being said, proprietary blobs and black boxes are a pox on basically every usable device these days. I hate it.

I'm referring to two bits of copper wire in a sleeve of (probably rubber) insulation, commonly used for landlines back in the day. If you don't call it that, maybe it's a regional thing.

Oh, and there's 8 billion people on this planet. They all live in the "real world". Your experiences are not somehow more valid because you happen to live on one particular patch of dirt.

Yeah, but it is a lining. The entire interior surface is plastic, so is the risk of chemical leeching any different?

Most people in developed countries have internet that can support HD resolutions, yes. Mine even does, and our building's wiring is original to the 50s.

In English, this is "rolling" a drink. It's the best way to handle something with tomato juice, like a bloody Mary.

I'd teach them once they are old enough to understand it on a technical level, as well as the potential consequences.

And I find your comparison to sex ed very strange. Sex is something they will do with huge consequences if they fuck up. They need to understand it, and they need to understand it early.

Mine is usually the whole copay...

The hardware is wholly unremarkable, but the pixel line supports Graphene. Custom Roms are a necessity if you care about privacy even a little bit, but there are other options.

Unfortunately in many places, illegal searches are the rule, not the exception and as such security is almost as critical. If you need security AND privacy there is simply no substitute.

Motorola hardware looks kinda nice though...

I vote no.

Switch hardware in general is a much worse experience than emulation due to graphical limits, no save backups, etc.

If my understanding is correct, a used steam deck should be about €300, which will offer a much better experience for your switch games and play other games as well.

Honestly 100 years is definitely overkill, in the same way that 5 years us definitely underkill.

Prison terms should be enough to provide an incentive not to do the crime and hopefully rehabilitate the offender, but not so much that they burden society or provide incentive to commit more crimes in hope of evading justice.

I hope this idiot is locked up long enough to make it clear that confidence schemes and gross negligence have no place in our society.

They work on my mother, but she has the kind of faith in the system I honestly envy. It seems like a much more tranquil existence.

This is the same woman who thinks the Judge Rotenburg center must not be that bad, because otherwise it would have already been closed down. She just...can't imagine a regulatory failure that big actually happening.

I looked it up because I didn't believed you. GTA V released in 2013 on consoles and 2015 on PC.

I'm not surprised about the console release, but I really thought the PC release was in like 2018 for some reason. I remembered there being several years in the middle, not just two.

Do you have anybody local you can ask? Our local spots are either deserted or very weird about it before a certain time on certain night(s).

I don't think wireguard is recommended yet for privacy reasons, but mullvad has always been solid AFAIK. You can even pay in cash if you like.

I've been watching it. Despite enjoying helluva boss a lot (despite its musical nature), I'm kind of underwhelmed. It isn't bad, but it just isn't really doing it for me.

As other commenters have said, it caters very hard to the theater kid crowd, and I think all that pandering is what takes me out of the story. I also just haven't found the jokes land.

Either way, I'll watch the rest of the season, but I probably won't bother with season 2 unless it comes out in a serious content drought.

Yes, but being good at something does not necessarily correlate to being good at managing others doing that thing.

This is especially pronounced in sales, where good salespeople get promoted to management, before immediately discovering that it requires a totally different skillset and they've basically changed fields entirely.
