“Hey, baby, Elon Musk says we should fuck.”

No worries. These things happen.

Either you replied to the wrong comment, or I’m misunderstanding yours

No. I never tried to say it. I just plain said it…

I’d like to point out to folks that whatever your stance on the issue may be, this statement (taken by itself) is pretty funny.

Please excuse the interruption and continue.

I don’t like it one bit.

The government sees it as a strategic need to have a strong ally in the region. That view will not change, at least not anytime soon. The Pentagon considers it a national security issue, which puts it beyond politics. Unfortunately, I have to live with that.

But they should be used sparingly

Good. You get it.

I’m thinking about specific web pages that use very small text for the body of an article. Then, once I’ve adjusted my browser so it’s legible, the text on other websites is ridiculously big.

Sadists. Or perhaps I’m giving them too much credit. Maybe they’re just morons.

Tiny text. If you’re designing something for people beyond their mid twenties, don’t use anything less than a 12pt font.

I really, really hope this is the case. I’d love to see him pay some serious consequences, especially if it’s the result of his own arrogance.

It must have been really hard for the underpaid researcher to put this report together while doubling over in laughter.

I can imagine being desperate to hit it big, but at least but a lottery ticket or something. That way, the school system (or whatever) gets a few bucks, instead of the fucking Trumps.

I’ve seen a few done using strawpoll.com

If someone besides Musk was running things, I might be excited about the potential for progress… as it stands, though, I just can’t trust the guy.

Most of what happens in the world would happen regardless of whether I existed or not, so even while I’m alive, the impact of my existence is negligible. I don’t believe in an afterlife, so I won’t know or care when I’m gone, either. It seems futile to waste any of my short life worrying about the inevitable.

I’ve gotten a lot of helpful answers, but yours was the only one that included a visual aid! Thanks!

What’s interesting is that when I focused on the UFOs, I didn’t notice a difference between the 30 fps and the 60 fps stars. When I let my eyes go out of focus, though, I was able to see a clear difference between them.

Back in high school, I worked with a girl who simply would not do her job. She’d walk away from her cash register at will. She’d go on break without telling anyone (never mind asking, like she was supposed to), and wouldn’t answer her radio, so people were constantly asking where she was. She wouldn’t follow instructions from anyone except the general manager - as if she outranked everyone else (which, of course, she didn’t). Everyone who actually had to work with her couldn’t stand her. From her perspective, though, she was always the victim. Nothing was ever her fault.

She would also talk your ear off. It was impossible to work with her and not hear several stupid, irrelevant, boring stories every hour. Fortunately, I didn’t have to work full shifts with her very often. If I had, I probably would have quit long before I had to leave for college.

I strongly suspect that the main reason she wasn’t fired is because it had taken months to fill her position, and filling it again would take months more. Plus, she only annoyed management; she didn’t completely exasperate them like she did the rest of us.

Wow. It’s been years. I’m surprised I still remember this so clearly.

First time I’ve heard of this. Horrible, horrible decision. What the fuck.

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. Toilets, showers, etc. I didn’t understand why people liked swimming in the ocean.

All drains went directly to the ocean - no processing, no filtration, nothing.

I was annoyed when I found out the phone I was considering didn’t have a headphone jack, but after checking the prices of Bluetooth headphones, I wasn’t as concerned. The battery charge for the headphones lasted longer than I was expecting, too. Now I’ve grown to prefer them, and wouldn’t go back even if I had the option.
