I unironically love this and would use it as my watch face just to get a reaction from my coworkers. Link?

The implication is that a phone number is still required, you just no longer have to share that with the people you communicate with.

Depends on whether she raises her head.

As pictured:

  • Depending on the ammunition, her ass jiggles either sightly or substantially
  • Her hat is probably displaced
  • She wishes she had doubled up on hearing protection

Lots of things could go wrong here but him pulling the trigger from this position is relatively tame. Stupid as fuck, but tame.

She will feel no effect from the barrel heating up as the other commenter said, for two reasons.

First, one shot doesn't really do much to the barrel temperature - you'd need multiple shots in relatively rapid succession (i.e. several within a few minutes) for the barrel to start getting uncomfortably warm.

Second, the barrel isn't resting on her gluteal cleft; the receiver is. This part of the rifle is designed to be held.

Belief has nothing to do with anything. The resolution that granted Texas membership into the Union allowed for Texas to divide itself into five separate States, but not to leave the Union.

Surely you know there are other options than just "fedora" or "yarmulke."

Walmart is the only place where I've been stopped during the checkout process because the camera system thinks I'm stealing.

I'm a nerd that tries to minmax my self checkout by putting items in the cart or handbasket in a manner conducive to efficient removal. I'll position the cart on my left, scanner in front, bags on right, and go as fast as the scanner will register the barcode and display the item on screen.

This works wonderfully everywhere else and I find it rather fun. I can count on Walmart to flag me at least once every trip (even though I slow down there for this reason), with the screen showing the flashing "POSSIBLE THEFT" message and video of me swiping an item quickly across the reader.

Maybe I should start parking the cart in the middle of the pathway like every other Walmart shopper and taking twenty seconds to dig every item out of the bottom of the cart before meandering around looking for where I set down the handheld scanner.

Who cares if it's normal? Your choice to eat a PBJ every day hurts absolutely nobody and if anyone judges you for it I'll smack them in the bicep with a rolled-up newspaper.

Rust: You declare the castle type as unsafe and then search for a crate with a rescue_princess function. You discover the princess you rescued is a femboy wolfkin named Pawws. You now have pubic lice and an inexplicable smug sense of superiority.

For fuck's sake.

Jesse what the fuck are you talking about?

Please remain calm, we are sending paramedics to your location.

I know (hope) you're being facetious, because the objectively best way to do email validation is to send a fuckin email to the provided address.

That's a weird way to spell "intentionally misunderstanding the point because people arguing about it in the comments drives engagement and is therefore more profitable."

I'm not an expert but I believe common wisdom says you're supposed to choke them.

Ok that's just not true at all.

Both of the excused jurors were replaced later in the afternoon as a new cohort of 96 Manhattan residents filled the courtroom. Half of the new group — 48 — said they could not be impartial and were immediately excused.

Thank you for clarifying that half of 96 is 48, CBS News. I'd never have figured that incredibly important detail myself.

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Exactly. If you're going to build an incredibly tall structure to generate power in the desert, wind makes much more sense.

You're saying "Ethernet" but what you mean is BASE-T (aka Cat5, Cat6, etc). Ethernet runs over fiber just as well as twisted pair copper.

You should know that not all clients display your display name, some only show your username@instance.

It's not apparent to everyone that your name is Onno.

Ref.

The store bolts a cart to one of these:

https://danetechnologies.com/shopping-cart-retrievers/

And then the person wrangling carts will pull carts out of the corral and load them up in front of this.

They carry a remote that makes the retriever move forward, so the employee can just stand at the front of the (sometimes surprisingly long) train of carts and steer it.

These things push way harder than a teenager in a back support belt could ever accomplish, so it both increases efficiency of retrieval (more carts at once) and reduces the chances of injury.

If you're practicing 3-2-1 backups then you probably don't need to bother with RAID.

I can hear the mechanical keyboards clacking; Hear me out: If you're not committed to a regular backup strategy, RAID can be a good way to protect yourself against a sudden hard drive failure, at which point you can do an "oh shit" backup and reconsider your life choices. RAID does nothing else beyond that. If your data gets corrupted, the wrong bits will happily be synced to the mirror drives. If you get ransomwared, congratulations you now have two copies of your inaccessible encrypted data.

Skip the RAID and set up backups. It can be as simple as an external drive that you plug in once a week and run rsync, or you can pay for a service like backblaze that has a client to handle things, or you can set up a NAS that receives a nightly backup from your PC and then pushes a copy up to something like B2 or S3 glacier.

There is no original thought.

A friend of mine had some explaining to do when he screwed up a dhcp config change and started routing his guest wifi through his "personal" pihole instead of the restricted guest one (he had family/children over often and did not want to be the reason nephew Timmy got an eyeful of wet bush or a beheading).

His family-friendly pihole was at holypi.lastname.local and his private one was creampi.lastname.local

"Oh, just aim at your other foot!"

It is uncommon for US grocery stores and supermarkets to leave carts scattered around the parking lot in corrals on purpose. Typically there's an employee who frequently retrieves all the carts and puts them in a huge covered stall just by the building entrance, so the corrals are often empty. Hell, some stores don't have corrals at all.

I'dn't've said it like that.

If their official website isn't https://batsh.it I'm going to be very sad.

Plot twist: They both go to OnlyFans.

So can I start with something a little milder or do I need to jump straight in to CBT? I guess I was expecting to ease into things with maybe some light spanking or candle wax.

I just had a db corruption a couple weeks ago, immediately after a server update. Easy enough to fix, but super annoying when you want things to "just work".

Like the OP, I'm getting tired and wary of Plex. The fact that they have a native app on most major TV brands is nice I guess, but I'm at the point where I'm seriously considering buying a handful of RPi compute modules now that they're available again and just changing all my TVs back into "dumb display" mode and running all media via the rpi.

I tend to get trigger anxiety on these things though, so I'd love to hear how other people are handling their self hosted media/streamcutting setups.
