74000 lashes for that government

How to piss off at least three sets of people in one shot.

Shit, piss, fuck, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker, tits.

How the turns have tabled.

It’s pretty well known they’re unhealthy, although sometimes this gets ignored. As a non-smoker it bugs me that these sometimes get a pass to be used indoors.

Sometimes I wonder what kinds of things we’re using today that we still haven’t found are toxic, carcinogenic or harmful in other ways…

Is he made of house or is the house made of flesh?

So cheese it is then.

I’m still bitter about Mail & Calendar. It worked wonderfully, but of course they decided to discontinue it.

I know, but in my case it’s like the opposite - i.e. someone sending a mail to firstnamelastname and me (firstname.lastname) receiving it as well (or instead, I don’t know).

I had some silly ones when I was younger, but I also made one that’s <first name>.<last name>@<service>.com which I’m using to this day. The only problem is that from time to time I get emails seemingly addressed to the fella using the same address, but without the dot between the names.

The irony of using the name of a billion dollar company as a genericised noun for basic necessities.

My problem with buying used is that some things barely survive the warranty period, so if I can get those two years of warranty, I will. I usually aim towards buying the latest thing and using it for at least 3-4 years for the things that go old the fastest (CPUs, mobos, RAM, GPUs). Other things might last longer - i.e. I just retired a case and a PSU that are 10+ years old (bought new).

I somewhat agree with your sentiment, but indeed it seems like the more we want to vote with our wallets, the further we stray from practicality.

The impulsive guy in me is thinking that I should cancel AMD over something like this while the rational one remembers that (at least for non-Apple PCs) it’s basically a duopoly and if I cancel the other player over something stupid that they do, I’d be out of choices.

What do you guys think?

Not a scientist, but from what I know it’s all linked and proportional to a species’ lifespan, so dogs are growing up faster, but also aging faster than humans in general. If a human reaches sexual maturity at 15, a dog does so at 1 or 2.

So “xkcd” is now a genericised noun for any comic? Also, is this xerox a Canon?

Hopefully not just humans. Many dogs for example suffer from the very same issues when they get older.

I have a liiiiitle suspicion that it won’t be just strange noises.

It makes sense to bump up the brightness just on that screen that’s showing the code for scanning, but doing it for the whole app is just plain stupid.
