“In other news, 50,000 people wearing ski masks manually disassemble a data center.”

In a better world, I’d be reading that headline.

Our admins are lovely but severely overworked. Most admin teams I’ve interacted with are kind but overladen. Some are definitely emotionally stunted but I definitely wouldn’t establish that as a rule

No, you’re thinking of the people keeping us in this mess.

Yeah, I wasn’t joking. Therapy having a negative association until recently is one of the more major failings of previous generations

I’d never even considered interrupting my parents. Because of violence.

61. Try to stop me, you old brittle bitch.

My pans usually end up similar. First cook will probably have some extra char, but it works great after!

Did you recently re-season your pan? If so, it might have had just slightly too much fat added, leading small portions of the seasoning to turn rubbery due to the thickness. Cook on it to see whether it’s a bother. I usually don’t mind it, but it does get eaten away and deposited on your food if you’re charring acidic veggies in there. A lot of black flecks on my tomatillos that I find unappetizing

If you say 10/10, it feels disingenuous. 9/10, no one neurotypical really questions it.

Issue 2: employees were able to manually find and view footage from smart glasses

Issue 1: meta exists

At least that’s where I’m at.

I just like a pan I can beat up remorselessly, and which aids my anemia when I do. I’ve reseasoned another pan already, but I’ve never thrifted before so confirming that no one has been melting soda cans, or something, into this thing felt like a reasonable question.

For precisely that worry, I’ve read a fair bit and at-home tests seem pretty unreliable. Most tests, reportedly, can offer a false positive from contact with iron. Including those marked for general, non-paint use.

So far, I’ve only managed to learn that (maybe) my local recycling center might possibly have the gear to test this, but otherwise that’s as far as I’ve come. If you know where to test for lead, I’d appreciate the scoop!

Unicycle? What’s that? Are you talking about a onewheel?

This one took me a second. You’re not the one fingerprinting, other people are. It’s worse for the fingerprinters, better for you. “Worse for fingerprinting” means it’s more difficult to use as a fingerprint

More generic and therefore worse for fingerprinting. Though that’s only because it’s built in and standardized.

Probably cues and calming. The more natural an interviewee feels, the better they’ll perform. “Great to see you” and its variations are probably popular. “It was fantastic having you” equally so

Which makes me want to say things that would get me banned for multiple reasons.

They can, but usually don’t. I’ve heard of systems being vulnerable to attack when resource usage is completely maximized. They can definitely cover up an intrusion or test a botnet, though, and I suspect this was a botnet test. Mastodon users overwhelmingly strike me as not worth unmasking. (And that’s a good thing)

For all we know, they achieved their goal, irrespective of .social’s uptime.

How dare you hurt that poor sweet baby! Everyone knows that hallways, door frames, and kitchens are made for lounging!
