The 25th is a Wednesday, not a Tuesday like he was wanting. Tuesday is nice because you get a four-day weekend without using any days off.

Someone ideologically somewhere between his greatest heroes, Stalin and Mao.

In other words, it is an authorized copy.

I have my phone number on my personal website—never had any adverse consequences. In fact, the only two calls I’ve gotten have both been at my work number which isn’t on there somehow. One to ask a genuine question and one to give me 30 bucks in appreciation.

Um, but actual Irish-Americans love eating corned beef and cabbage on St. Patrick’s day. It’s racist to celebrate your heritage? Or just to try things from other people’s cultures?

India—it’s Veeba.

Donating to GIMP will not likely make it user-friendly enough to make me use it unless absolutely forced to. I would much rather donate to Pinta or Paint.NET or something where development would actually benefit me.

Yeah, they’re nothing fancy, but that’s their sole purpose. People aren’t carrying around spark plugs unless they’re car thieves.

Because they have special ceramic tools. Windows will always be incredibly easy for thieves to break with no effort, but they’re incredibly hard for people without specialized burglary tools to break.

Then also split California and Illinois and New York and Georgia and Florida

He didn’t defend Musk at all. He was just commenting on the style of the conversation. But trying to come up with a new school-ground insult for someone every thread is admittedly immature and makes it really hard to follow the conversation if you’re not terminally online.

If you don’t have a walk-in door or window, no. You’d need someone to pick out otherwise remove the lock.

I think it’s up to the mods/admins to cultivate such a culture/community. If you restrict low-quality political posts, the people who that’s their life will go elsewhere.
