Wren

I’m choosing to imagine he’s running a very very very slightly larger circle each time, getting closer and closer to his neighbours as he goes - instead of it being the precision of the sat nav (and the larger circles only being noticed over a matter of weeks)

The clouds parted just in time for us for totality as well! Talk about lucky, eh?

So cool that it includes those stats! Were the other ones comparable in terms of brick count / weight / hours and whatnot?

I’m right there with you

Hate hate hate subtitles. I 100% agree sound mixing is absolute shite now, and I definitely understand why some people need them (as someone who has audio processing issues myself I really do get it)

But I refuse to watch things with subtitles. They’re way too distracting. Either I’m reading them of I’m trying to ignore them but all my brain is saying is ‘don’t look at them don’t look at them don’t look at them’. Like if I wanted to read something, I’d have a book in front of me

There’s nothing ‘mildly infuriating’ about this – this is full blown infuriating. Enraging.

Hope you find something better soon

True story: I was once at a restaurant and they had a ‘Fun Guy Pizza’ and I asked for that without the mushrooms (it had an awesome combo of sauce and cheese and I don’t like the texture of mushrooms)

It took until it being brought over for me to realise I basically asked for a cheeseburger without cheese

I have never felt like such a fool

I mean people using libraries for the most part don’t really understand the decimal system and probably wouldn’t get the significance of it being in the 000s - especially the 000s where it’s sandwiched between computer science and knowledge structure & other general works. When I’m compelled to aquire a bs book in any category, simply because patron demand is high, I prefer it be in the same section as factual information so it may be drowned out a little more. (And I say aquire, instead of purchase, since those types of books I try to rent so they can be returned after it’s been taken out by those requesting it and it never makes its way into our full collection)

I do like the meme though! This format is pretty great and we do indeed need more librarian memes, I don’t mean to get all pedantic here haha

But you gotta admit, it’s a very Creed thing to do

I like onions, but the texture can be a big problem for me, depending on the day. Doesn’t matter how it’s prepared: raw, sauteed, cooked, cooked within an inch of its life, does not make a difference

Do you happen to work at a mid-sized paper company?

Yeah, this is SFO and these runways are 750 ft / 230 m apart. Definitely not a lot of room for error, but the telephoto zoom makes this look a lot closer than it really is

Not necessarily standard, but not likely an emergency. Loads of places have the setup required for parallel landings / takeoffs, it’s just usually more efficient to have them alternating

Here’s a list of the places that have parallel runways (bottom of the page)

Mines on 195.0 (iOS, idk if android has a different version build) and I’m still on the older ui. Wonder where the threshold is.

Great read! Easy for everyone to understand, but also thorough. I loved the breakdown into the calculators functionality

This is why everyone should disable auto updates

Granted, apps can lock you out if you don’t have a certain version, but by and large, you should be able to choose to update when there’s this drastic of a change

All three are amazing! If I had to pick one though I’d go with the one on the left

I’ve been vegetarian for… more than a decade? I love meat substitutes and generally prefer having the substitute present in meals (either as the main thing, like a burger, or as an inclusion). I do agree that meat substitutes are a fantastic way of reducing meat consumption for meat-eaters, but that doesn’t mean you need to do away with it completely once you’re in ‘full veg’ mode

I’m sorry I needed it for school?

I did warn anyone who had access that it wasn’t a 24/7 guarantee.

Agreed. Sometimes I’ll get a text saying ‘the plex thing wont load’ and it doesn’t really make sense to them when I say ‘yeah, I took my computer today’

From my experience they prefer payment that isn’t easily disputed / claimed as fraud. Don’t get me wrong I was more than happy to get the points, it’s just unusual, since they do typically prefer cash / cash adjacent
