She could call her parents on the phone and tell them herself, but she doesn’t want to because she knows it will be a difficult conversation.

Therefore she wants to put that undesirable conversation on bro instead, so she doesn’t have to.

Welcome to my TED talk

It’s such a huge problem to treat mental health like “Oh you had an issue, so you are now shit-listed for life”

This is especially dangerous IMO because it means pilots who realise themselves that they are unfit to fly will simply keep on flying, while trying to hide the symptoms and avoid treatment, because they know that if they truthfully disclose what’s going on then it’s game over for them. It builds the incentive to lie directly into the system.

This painting wasn’t done carefully with a brush or roller, it was done by spraying with a jet of paint.

It took them no time at all to paint this, because they just blasted it at the same time they were doing the rest of the wall, without even caring it was there.

What would have taken time would be to try and carefully spray around without getting any paint on it (or the proper solution, to remove it from the wall before painting)

Pick any non-beige non-grey colour

Get that mirror actually hung up rather than lazy-ass leaning

Picture above the couch is too small

Add some vertical elements

Coffee table is too large for the space

Add other lighting rather than unflattering ceiling lamp

Get a rug

Ask your gay friend for some advice

How so?

Combination, right.

Landlord wants the job done fast, meanwhile the contractors know that the landlord isn’t the one actually living there so they can get away with cutting corners.

The Heinz who started the company was the son of German immigrant parents, hence the surname.

The only thing my fries need is kewpie mayo 😋

Lots of great money to be made in theft, apparently.

The wheels still scream “I’m an EV!” though, with that design that incorporates loads of flat area, but I’m glad the body design is moving away.

I can see why manufacturers wanted “EV style” - EVs were the new hotness and so the makers want to strongly telegraph the electric nature of the car in the design language. And I’m sure certain consumers also liked driving around in something that looks like an alien spaceship.

But that design gets old real quick. Personally I don’t want crazy, I want classic shapes and a car that just looks like an ordinary car.

I’m doing it slowly. Anything new I register with the new email, obviously. I moved over the most important things, and then everything else I switch at the point I come to use that site or service again.

I keep my gmail available in my browser on the laptop for this purpose, but have signed out from it on phone and removed the app from phone, so the friction encourages me to keep switching things over.

Ironic how the typo directly inverted the meaning.

will not adopt = will not use the new Firefox terms

will not adapt = will use the new Firefox terms exactly, without any rewording

Read/write/execute file permissions.

Having them set incorrectly can cause problems, such as creating a file as root then leaving you unable to modify it as user, being unable to execute a script because execute is not set, or being unable to use your SSH keyfile because you left the permissions too open.

It’s more actually like “Why is it, when something doesn’t happen, is it always you three”

I can’t make any recommendations, as having a desktop or alternative email client isn’t what concerns me - I just want a non-Google provider. I’m currently using Proton.

Well to be fair it does say this in the FAQ section on their product page:

Q: Which email provider(s) will Notion Mail be compatible with?

A: Notion Mail will integrate seamlessly with Google and Gmail accounts at initial launch.

I assume this is because they are using Google’s APIs to access your email and just add some extra bells and whistles on top of that.

Makes it utterly worthless to me, though. I’m trying to slowly REMOVE Google and Gmail from my life, not get locked in on using it.

I’m not into any sports at all, of any kind. I dont think I could even name 10 athletes in total - either male or female.

I’m also pretty sure that wouldn’t be a blocker on me having a meaningful discussion about trans inclusivity in sports

I wonder what the Large Penis test came back as

The instructions for Windows work just as well on Linux, to be fair.
