By nature noticing these things repeatedly either comes from hypervigilance or having sensory differences that make you hear footsteps when others would not.

Obviously there are exceptions like if you live on a floor lower than someone or something.

Trauma, neurodivergence, or both detected!

Yes this is the correct answer. The words in the meme are written to a hypothetical end user. They would not reference technology like the other person said.

Yeah definitely a stupidity problem and not an education problem. /s

This simply isn’t true. They are still cheap even for decent stuff. I got a T15 Gen 2 when it was 2.5yrs old for about $400 on eBay. You’re not going to get an even remotely decent laptop in most cases for that kind of money. And to be clear, I love old Thinkpads. I have them going back to the IBM days.

Modern Thinkpads: -easy to work on -plenty fast for most things -still made of the carbon composite and magnesium chassis we like -hinges are beefy -upgradeable ram -available with GPU -lighter and easier to daily than any of the old chonks -replaceable keyboard, track pad and track point, and fingerprint -dual thunderbolt connection (and docks are stupid cheap… I find them for $30 sometimes)

Downsides exist but they’re not the end of the world: -one drive slot (drives are huge now, who cares) -8gb of RAM is soldered but the rest is not (max 40gb) -internal battery but laptop is faster and has better battery life than my maxed out T580

I’m not going to debate an amateur (as an amateur to be fair) about something that already has a ruling. In 2008, DC v. Heller ruled that the ownership of firearms included the purpose of self defense independent of anything to do with a militia. Link

That said, the federalist paper you linked made a great case for a militia but did not talk about the People’s right to bear arms. It was also written 4 whole years before the 2nd amendment was ratified so using as an interpretation tool is not adequate. Similarly, it would make sense to me that if firearm bans were common throughout the 1700s, that in 1792 they would pass an amendment to counter that if they didn’t like it…

I don’t have in-depth knowledge about the 14th amendment and I don’t have time to look right now so I’ll ask… what/how does the 14th amendment have/do that implies an amendment which specifically states “The People” (a protected term, such as in "We The People), did not apply to The People? Federal or not, the meaning is the same. Unless I’m missing something.

Intent isn’t started. It says the state gets guns (a militia) so the people get guns too.

Not saying you need to agree with the sentiment, but grammatically that is what it says.

Boy. Arrogant and wrong too.

You’re not even replying to the same person. The 2nd person didn’t state an opinion on OneDrive at all.

Don’t forget that you’re also allowed to ask them to play, if you should feel like it

I mean…

I want an all-Tacoma C&C now.

I do love me some Toyotas.

Had nice ones, had shitboxes. They all make some monkey brain in me so happy to drive.

No hate on other cars. I respect all builds. But Toyota seems to have some blueprint of my nervous system that makes me have fun in them.

Did you look this up or do you have encyclopedic knowledge of Generals quotes ^(too) ?

I read all of these in-voice haha.

I would recommend researching the terms “executive dysfunction” and “demand avoidance”.

Demand avoidance is not the same as Pathological Demand Avoidance, which is a Autistic profile type, but maybe for fun look into that too!

Even a decent driving rig can be had for under a grand. Way cheaper than almost any car.

OP does not use said meme

this guy links to it

Smh.SMH.

(Or possibly OP edited away from that meme and this guy leaves the link. I’m a day late, take your pick. )

I used to drink this all the time as a kid. I tried it as an adult and it holds up.

Sounds nasty, but it averages out to roughly what is a carbonated milkshake. Not bad at all.

I’m a new programming student and the single best thing I have done is just start trying to do projects. Sure I have VS Code or Eclipse in one window and maybe Stack Overflow or chatgpt in the other but I slog through it and it has been for more helpful than all the reading and tutorials… I’ve learned far more. I wish I had started this years ago.

If we’re commiting to the bit, we should put “the other guy” instead of a name

Well look at you, having all your code where it belongs.
