I do a lot of my wrangling in R for more ad hoc stuff.

I’m also confused, hasn’t he had plenty of roles that were typecast for little people? The two I know him most for are Game of Thrones (a character with dwarfism in the source material) and Elf (a character who’s entire written purpose seems to be “little person that Buddy mistakes for an elf”).

Is there ever not a mattress sale? And they advertise like crazy.

I sincerely hope you never test this theory. I many people in this thread are severely underestimating how little noise is needed to be disruptive in the early morning.

My local noise ordinance sets the maximum permissible noise in residential areas during off-hours (10pm - 9am on weekends) at 45 dB. That can be exceeded by 5 dB for 15 minutes, 10 dB for 5 minutes, and 15 dB for 1.5 minutes. Lawnmowers are an exempt source of noise during day hours only. I guarantee if you were my neighbor your mower would be in violation of noise ordinance at night.

Plus, assume some people are sleeping with their windows open. Especially in mowing weather. Windows open overnight may be the only way they keep their house bearable during hot days.

Based on the design I think this is the one I have: https://www.ryobitools.com/products/details/46396037169#

It does say “brushless” but they’ve got a fair few different varieties. I don’t know, I mean like I said it is significantly quieter than a gas mower. It’s a good mower. But I don’t think it’s anywhere near quiet enough to consider using it during off hours.

My car insurance went up like 20% from last year to this year. Exact same shitty “coverage” as before.

What lawn mower do you have that is that quiet??? I have a Ryobi electric push mower that I bought last year and while it’s way quieter than a gas mower I would feel incredibly rude using it early in the morning.

And noise is different depending on time of day. Ambient noise is a lot lower in off-hours, so your mower would sound louder than it does during the day.

Clearly they all stem from the same triconsonantal root. Though I couldn’t find one for رجن (assuming the Egyptian pronunciation).

Seriously, it actually sounds kinda good.

The user always lies. Or even if they don’t, they can’t intimidate the ghosts in the machine like you can.

I have an uncommon but not unique name and I have firstlast@gmail.com. As far as I know, others with my name usually include a middle initial in their email address but they sometimes forget it. I’ve gotten family event plans, car maintenance reminders, digital receipts, contractor quotes, and even once added to a daycare group (that one I did reach out to the coordinator to let them know and then removed myself from the group).

Yep, that sure is a word from my comment.

These violent delights have violent ends.

No sorry, I didn’t mean the image was AI generated. I interpreted the person in the image as being the employee correcting AI mistakes, but because of their hands they don’t correct any of the deformed hands in other AI image gen.

I’m getting a kick out of this hypothetical person responsible for correcting AI mistakes looking at AI image gen with deformed hands and saying “looks fine to me, totally normal.”

The ways of compression artifacts are mysterious.

As I said in another thread where this was posted, that original post has the distinctive voice of ChatGPT. Could be another similar model, but I’d bet money that was written by an LLM.

I get the joke in the image and the reference in the title, though not the connection between the two.

Running water never grows stale, so you gotta just keep on flowing.

Almost all of this would be true if we celebrated a day (or two) each year that were outside of the months and weeks, except events tied to points in our orbit would stay put a lot more. We would still have the same calendar every year. In your version we have a full extra week every 6 or so years, in mine every year we have a dedicated New Year’s Day that isn’t in a regular month or a day of the week, and every 4 or so years (same rules as now) we have 2 New Year’s Days.

Though I would argue for Sunday being the 1st day of each month/year. IMO weekends should be like bookends, one on either side.

Edit: your Wiki link contained a link to the International Fixed Calendar, which I’ve been inadvertently arguing for. This is almost identical to what I’ve been proposing, except they put the leap day at the end of June. But it fixes the major disadvantage of your system: that a year isn’t a year. In your system 1/1 is never one year away from 1/1. In mine it is within leap day drift, just like the current calendar.

Isn’t that what I said?
