In high school calc, I would do all kinds of algebra, integration, etc. and then at the end add 8 and 7 and get 13. All the time.
I have an aunt named Karen. I have never asked her what she thought about that name being a sort of slur now.
My grandpa held out for a long time, but begrudgingly went with Richard towards the end…just like Michael Bolton in Office Space.

Sir or Madam, I’m a fan of the Cleveland Guardians and the Columbus Blue Jackets. Both of those are losing causes and will probably be forever.

Ahh…but the blowjob is just rolled into the cost of the rest of the order. No such thing as a free blowjob.
They may be using CGNAT. If you check your local IP and it starts with 10, 172, or 192 when on mobile data that is the case.

3·1 year agoYou’re always allowed to change your plea. You should not plea to anything (in fact you shouldn’t talk to the cops at all) until you’ve discussed your situation with your lawyer.

18·1 year agoYou always plead not guilty when arraigned. That gives your lawyer time to make a deal with the prosecutor.

7·1 year agoSame. Should be rock bottom prices.
I found out at a previous position that the best way to get my work done was to be short with people. In that case they wouldn’t bother me, and I had more time to do my work.
Aspirin is a different drug than paracetamol/acetaminophen.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Banned across multiple communities, posts deleted, for upsetting a modEnglish
51·1 year agoI told them their “MEN DON’T POST HERE” posts on the frontpage are hostile, which is the reaction they got from a half dozen folks who were talking about the subject.
So what if it’s hostile to you? It’s their community. I see that community from time to time. Guess what. I don’t post there. I accept that it’s their space and their rules.
I talked about my experience as a gay man, wanting more community here on Lemmy, but that I wouldn’t start communities or threads saying “NO STRAIGHT PEOPLE POST HERE” to do it.
You don’t have to, but other people can if they want. If someone else did, I, as a straight person, wouldn’t post there. Because they asked me not to.
I get that I broke their rule, and I can be banned there for that - but they didn’t ban me for being a man, they banned me for hurting their feelings. And now I can’t use LGBTQ and Trans communities as a result. OK, fuck turtlesareneat, he shouldn’t be allowed in queer communities cause he hurt a mod’s feelings.
No, you didn’t get banned because you hurt their feelings. You got banned because you can’t follow rules. Other instances banned you because you’ve been shown that you can’t follow other instances’ rules.
This reads very heavily of “but I had to reply because they needed to hear my carefully-considered opinion.” NO. THEY. DON’T. They didn’t want to talk to you and you decided to barge in and tell them what you had to say because by god you needed to be heard.

Torrents are often used for installers, but for packages it tends to be more trouble than what it’s worth. Is creating a torrent for a 4k library worth it?
