Redbull. It’s not quite what was asked, but it’s about the only thing that is always stocked.

My partner tells me that my eyes fluctuate between blue and green. I can’t really tell for sure. I always go look in the mirror when she comments about them. Maybe I should start taking selfies to compare.

Holy shit, I had to stop reading part way through the pedo section cause it just kept going and going. Roblox is fucked up.

Well said.

I’ve been in software engineering (as a QA tester) and IT at different places. I don’t understand what transformation means, unless you’re scanning documents to digitize them or recording tape or similar. Perhaps you could elaborate.

I worked at an IT job that became fully remote after the pan. And I work an IT job now that’s hybrid. A friend is still at the place where I was on QA and they’re hybrid after the pan (for everyone and it’s a major tech company). I think it’s less about the role than the company for these types of jobs.

I just tried it out using the same search string that I’d, just prior, run on the goog:

how many permutations of 9 digit number

Results were not encouraging.

Nothing. There would be no replacement and the pledge would fade from memory.

Because the majority of people in the USA (where I took this thread to originate based on context) have multiple sets of clothes. Someone who can afford internet and a device to get on Lemmy likely has multiple sets of clothes, even if they are all low-cost or run-down. You’re not convincing me of anything other than you being stubborn.

I didn’t specify the quality of clothing. I specified the intent. If you only have torn clothing, you would wear the least torn.

I meant general computer backups, I just had trouble phrasing it correctly. As in, you and I probably didn’t backup our computers properly until we lost something. That’s how most of us get into backups. Similar here.

Agreed. You fucked up and now hopefully you learned from it. The reason any of us have (typical local) backups is because we lost data, whether a little or a lot. This is no different.

I think you should ask in the Linux sub to maximize expert advice. It’s fine that you asked here, but there’s more expert opinions there.

Good at google. Which should be easy for everyone to learn, but a lot of people don’t.

Many. There wasn’t fluoride in the water where I grew up for the first decade of my life. Tips:

Bring earbuds and clear it with the dentist that they’ll tap your arm if they need to talk to you. Have a playlist ready. If you can afford it / have the right insurance, ask for gas to help you zone out. If you feel pain, they didn’t give you enough novocaine. My dentist informed me that people with red hair are less sensitive to the drug and need more of it (she noticed my beard comes in kinda reddish when she told me about that). Don’t be afraid to let them know of discomfort; they want you to be ok during the procedure so not to make you avoid getting treatment right away in the future, thus making whatever problem worse.

You can maybe ask for a single pill script for a downer like zanex if you don’t drive to the appt.

Get a barebones mini-PC (no OS so you aren’t paying for a wasted license) to install Linux. Bring questions to the community (after doing your due diligence to show that you put in some effort on your own by asking questions that show that you’re trying). People are generally pretty willing to help out. Start with figuring out which distro is the right fit for you. Check out r/homelab and other homelab resources.

If all this is too overwhelming, take other advice from someone who makes a better pitch than I did. Good luck and welcome to the hobby that is known to take over your free time and money in a deeply enjoyable way. Cheers!

Most people are probably pretty passive, so yeah, I think there’s a subset of posters who are highly visible. But even over at Hacker News, where there’s a much larger audience commenting, I recognize specific names because something they said in the past got my attention and I start piecing together their personality a bit at a time.

Dressing well doesn’t necessarily mean expensive clothes. It means wear something that demonstrates that you take the court seriously. I think you’re telling on yourself here.

I had a habit of letting the spellchecker alert me to misspellings but didn’t allow it to correct them. This was to teach me to figure out the correct spelling of difficult words. But now that so much typing is with thumbs on glass, I let it fix things for me (as well as incorrectly modify the word I intended) all the time. Still doing it the old way on a physical kbd, though.

Dress well to show respect for the court.
