I carry around a 3x5 split keyboard with Colemak-dh mapped via firmware. Because I, too, am absolutely useless at a qwerty keyboard now.

Rust introduces novel features and makes notable changes from its ancestors.

Arch was just blue Gentoo.

Chocolate, cherry, pistachio is where it’s at.

The mind-boggling thing about Idaho to me is that they have convinced a bunch of people from Oregon that Idaho is so great that a bunch of counties should secede and join Idaho.

I’m not making this up. It’s called the Greater Idaho Movement. They want to take over about 2/3 of Oregon.

I learned about this after moving to Oregon and was relieved to hear that at least my county had already voted against it.

Also, “dot” with a hard T is like super common in programming naming. It’s a pretty reasonable mistake to make.

I also use them. They’re a tool for emphasis, like ! and 😡.

… as a TV show, right? Right?

I don’t think there is a good answer here. I didn’t really want my kids to have phones either but all you’re doing by denying them the primary social tool of their generation is ostracizing them from their peers.

Being a parent sometimes feels like a series of un-winnable choices.

Wat? It’s called a colloquialism. It’s a way to describe something I know you know without needing to spell it out.

You’re basically asserting that anything described using an analogy must inherit all the traits of anything else that analogy is used for, which is just silly. It’s a classic composition/division fallacy.

Yeah, my state just enacted a “bell-to-bell” ban on cell phones in schools for my kids. I absolutely support a ban on phones in class (so long as the school is providing necessary tech to educate with) but banning between class just ignores that phones are an important part of how kids socialize and ripping it away cold-turkey can’t be healthy.

Edit: also, I gave my kids phones primarily so they could contact me in an emergency, and I am very much not ok with the state telling me they can’t have the phone in their backpack.

Also the whole incredible adaptable camouflage thing.

Edit: I’d probably be an Orca (the asshole of the sea) or a peregrine falcon. One gets to glide through the ocean, the other soar through the air. Both sound rad.

I agree that it’s not much of an argument.

I loathe and despise using percentages like this.

500% sounds super scary, but is meaningless without providing the baseline. If there was only one instance before and now there’s 5 it isn’t a significant increase but 500% sure sounds scary.

This is a very republican method of argument.

Edit: now tell them to go “do your own research”

Touché

First time seeing it for me. Maybe we don’t need to be the post police.

Oh, wait! I know this one!!

No, it isn’t.

Sophistry. I didn’t accuse “anyone that acts a way I don’t like”, I offered one explanation as to why some people might be assholes to women online.

I don’t like that you’re like weirdly defensive about this, you don’t see me making any accusations.

Who’s body shaming? Low self esteem does indeed cause people to lash out at others, and men frequently value their self worth on their dick size.

Why the hell would anyone feel any need to harass someone like this?

Micro-penises.
