Join a party? Minecraft doesn't really have a concept of partying, unless it is a mod of some time. And griefing other people's builds was a big problem, but most servers turn griefing off.

    I had the opposite idea... if you budge your steering more than 5 degrees to the side, it automatically turns on the turn signal

    I figured this out years ago - If the car makers can detect when you're driving out of your lane, and warn you, then the same little computer could detect when you're turning, say, more than 60 degrees, and also detect whether the signal was on. Then, when you go to get your yearly licence renewed, the clerk taps into that computer, and charges you extra for all those times you turned without signalling. One single year would rid us of the BMW curse.

    New cars with assistants already show some resistance if you change the lane without the signal turned on... I`m always really startled when people complain about this feature. Riding motorcycle this is a life or death feature for me.

    We could get hurt even trying many of the events. My children were in a gymnastic club years ago. When my wife and I went to pick them up, people were setting up apparatus for older children. I saw the still rings and mentioned to my wife that I had not seen those since high school. An instructor was behind me. He asked me to try them and see what I remembered. Then, my children started asking me to try. I surprised myself with how well I was doing and tried to do an iron cross (start with arms at the side and gradually lower yourself until they are horizontal). I got half way there, then my hands smashed together over my head. The bruising was so bad that people at work asked if I had been in a fight.

    Even an athlete from another sport would show (by their lack) the skills necessary. I have occasionally seen a color piece where the network sets up two athletes from different sports to try each other's. It is instructive.

I had so many they put out a notice that they didn't need any more after they got mine, lol.

    Every NZ house used to have it. They banned plastic grocery bags a while back, now we have piles of re-useable ones and paper ones 😅 I actually sold an older plastic bag with an older supermarket logo to a collector. It's a nostalgia thing now. But it's not better. Like, i used to use plastic grocery bags as bin liners, now I need to buy bags to use, but at least they are biodegradable I guess. They feel weird lol. (im a bit squeamish about bin germs, in that the amount of chemicals id be using daily to wash my bin if I didn't use a bag would be just as bad environmentally)

    South Africa here. Everyone has a bag of bags in their house. Ironically, we're supposed to re-use them because they charge like ZAR 1 per bag at the grocery shop. However, you always forget the bag of bags at home, meaning you end up buying more of them and adding them to the collection.

    I had a disturbingly similar experience here in Hamburg, Germany, early one Sunday morning. Bit of background: I'm British and Jewish, had been living in Hamburg for about 10 years at that point. So, I was walking home from a long summer night out in the early hours so it was already light but there was no one around. I turned the corner and came face to face with the law courts, decked out with long swastika banners, with people wearing Nazi uniforms outside. My heart nearly stopped! Anyway, when it started again, I realised they were making a film. They had to do it at a time when there was a very low likelihood of people being around because the use and display of this symbol is illegal in Germany. Just their luck that it was seen by one of the (relatively) few Jews in town!

    However many people might enjoy X as a social network, it isn’t without its flaws and controversies. As reported by The Guardian, after Elon Musk took over Twitter in October 2020 (and rebranded it as X in July 2023), the social media platform has lost a whopping 71% of its value.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    So, a network that was bought for $44 billion (yes, ‘billion’ with a ‘b’) has lost nearly three-quarters of its worth in less than two years. This is staggering.

    I'm mildly autistic, and surprises were always a problem for me since I need time to parse and place sudden changes. In short, I can't be happily surprised at the exact moment, even seem a bit cold or emotionless.Or react like this kid with something unexpected. But I will probably like it and be happy if you give me something like half an hour minimum to adjust. This has lead to some disappointment among people trying to surprise me in my childhood I can tell you.

    It’s not just the network’s value that’s dropped. Many users have been leaving the platform en masse after Musk’s takeover and ensuing changes. X’s monthly user numbers dropped around 15% in the first year since the entrepreneur bought it.

    These users were concerned over the rise of hate speech and disinformation on X. Meanwhile, Musk has reduced the moderation of content and cut around half of all employees.

    Better yet, she shows d**k pics to the guys’ mothers and they have to guess which one’s son sent it. An added benefit would be to then show the mothers confronting their sons about the pictures, and especially the guys’ reactions to getting their asses whooped by their moms.

    There’s no ‘perfect’ formula for having your posts go viral on social media. However, there are lots of small things that you can do. Then—with a bit of luck—you might find hundreds, thousands, and sometimes even millions of people enjoying your content. One of the most essential things that you can do is make your content relatable.

    There's rumor DeBeers plans to swamp the market with synthetic diamonds to bring down their price. The goal is of course to ramp up the price of mined diamonds. By the way: There is no reason at all for diamonds to be this epensive. It's the monopoly that decided to make them so and the marketing that keeps it this way.

    Whomever wrote the marketing materials for "natural" diamonds (diamonds are forever, two months salary is what you should spend) have a lot to answer for. It's made people believe a specific kind of rock is the only one you can use for an engagement ring and how much you spend is directly proportional to how much you love your partner. It's sick.

    TBH, if you’re able to successfully run a crime family (thuggery and hits aside), you most likely are smart and have some natural business savvy. It pains me to see so many people with that potential turn to illegal business instead of legitimate. Glad to see one that gave up the illegal for the legit, and make a totally above board success of it.

    Naturally, different people have different interests and senses of humor. So no matter what kind of content you post, you won’t be able to make everyone happy. And that’s all right. Content creators need to embrace this fact. They can then think about the type of audience they want to attract with their favorite content.

    Are the content creators aiming for broad(er) appeal with non-offensive posts and dad jokes? Or do they want to have a more niche fan base that enjoys more unique interests or slightly edgier jokes and dark humor?

    Whatever the case may be, it’s important to be consistent once you make that choice. You can’t cover everything and anything on a single social media account because your audience won’t know what to expect.

    I don’t think it’s a bad thing. Develops good vocabulary. Baby talk isn’t really all that cute. I would rather have my five year old speaking clearly (or at least as clearly as they’re capable of) like an adult than babbling the few words they know incoherently so you have no idea what they’re saying.

    People always think of memory decline in the elderly but don't seem to realize how much of a steep IQ drop there is from newborns on up. Learning a language is easy for them as long as they aren't given bad data like "baby talk" and other BS. Not saying to force them into all study no fun, but anything you can get them interested in and have them study on their own helps immensely. Only down side is when they hit school age you will have to be after the school to place them appropriately for each subject so they don't get bored, the elite noticed an experiment where a baby was raised with a monkey and saw how it destroyed their intelligence so that is why they forced a least common denominator approach to public school curriculum.

    On the flip side, if your fans know for a fact what they get when they follow you, they’re more likely to stick around. Say that you’re big on posting humorous remarks about your daily life. Many people love that!

    Ideally, you’ll keep doing that. If you were to suddenly pivot and start posting car memes or political commentary, you’d only confuse your audience.

    If your day entails a lot of concentration and mind power work, sometimes it’s relaxing to do an easy and repetitive job like washing dishes, doing laundry, folding laundry, etc. Something that isn’t hard work, and doesn’t take a lot of brainpower, aside from just using the correct stuff to get it clean. The great thing about laundry is that the washing and drying is just setting a dial and pushing (or pulling) it.

    Also: women make money too. A man isn't a free food machine. When I met my boyfriend he was still a student, while I'd already started my career. In the beginning I paid for most of the stuff we did together, and now we share things equally.

    My favorite play on names is something I learned in Texas history. Governor Jim Hogg, elected in 1890, had four children, including his daughter which he named Ima. From Wikipedia: Ima Hogg (July 10, 1882 – August 19, 1975), known as "The First Lady of Texas", was an American society leader, philanthropist, mental health advocate, patron and collector of the arts, and one of the most respected women in Texas during the 20th century. Hogg was an avid art collector, and owned works by Picasso, Klee, and Matisse, among others. Hogg donated hundreds of pieces of artwork to Houston's Museum of Fine Arts and served on a committee to plan the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. An enthusiastic collector of early American antiques, she also served on a committee tasked with locating historical furniture for the White House. She restored and refurbished several properties, including the Varner plantation and Bayou Bend, which she later donated to Texas arts and historical institutions.

    Ima Hogg's first name was taken from The Fate of Marvin, an epic poem written by her uncle Thomas Hogg. She endeavored to downplay her unusual name by signing her first name illegibly and having her stationery printed with "I. Hogg" or "Miss Hogg". Although it was rumored that Hogg had a sister or sisters, whose names was suggested to be "Hoosa Hogg", "Ura Hogg" or "Wera Hogg", she had only brothers.

    Though you don’t have to focus on humor in your posts if you don’t want to, the simple fact is that it helps you stand out. If your jokes and insights are original and genuinely funny, folks will remember you.

    Making others laugh and smile is a very powerful thing. Combine that with some authenticity on your part (instead of just playing a specific character), and you’ve got something special.

    I wanted these little milk chocolate balls in a white shell called snowballs (I think) when I came round after nearly dying as a kid. Had to hide them under the covers when the doctor did his rounds. It was the only time I truly felt close to my mum because we exchanged a brief conspiratorial glance.

    How exactly does this work? She has not had a chance to get to the first window yet so how did you have a receipt by the second window? Maybe it's because I'm not from America but here we have 3 windows, first to order, second to pay, and third to collect. It seems there you order and pay at the first window and second one you pick up, which makes sense, but how did anyone know what food she wanted? I guess they went to ask her?

    You order at a speaker, drive to window one after speaker, then drive to window two. So by the time lady who paid for other persons food was at window 1, the other person was behind them ordering at speaker. She probably waited until their order was finished at window 1 and told them she wanted to pay for their food

    I shall provide the unnecessary math work here for those unaware or lazy. OP ended his work at 5 on friday (13 minutes of mail being in his inbox while working). Then proceeds "3 days" of non-working days (0 minutes). OP comes in on Monday at 8 where 15 minutes, while working, go by until he sees the email that was "3 days old". 13+0+15=28. Thus concludes this time wasteful math lesson.

    Even worse when they email you right after five pm, then again right before nine am, so not one letter of their email is within working hours, so technically they either just barely emailed you, or didn’t email you at all, and nowhere close to the ‘three days ago” they claim.

    My class was going to the cinema. Only I didn't bring money, as I was visibly poor. The teacher asked the principal to come and they together criticised me in front of my classmates. Then the class left and I was locked in the classroom until they came back. That was in 2000. Now I'm a teacher and can't believe how much school workers spoil children.

    Things were easier at the start of the Internet. I once wrote a research paper on a topic that doesn't exist, I made up my own Internet sources and cited them. Real pages at my domain and fake transcripts of IRC chats. It was for a high school English class that I thought was a joke because my dad teaches English and I got a better education at home when I was much younger. I got an A. These days, you don't cheat and you get accused of it...

    Spaced repetition. Duolingo pretends to be doing this, while it's not at all. maybe once before it was fully Gamifide and set for maximum monetization of all activities. Now there isn't even a practice... oh sorry... tangent

    I was teaching via Zoom at the beginning of the pandemic, when my class was "Zoom Bombed" by someone named spiderman. Hilariously, they were actually really intentive, asked good questions about the Calculus I was teaching, and overall a gem to have in class. Props to this guy where ever he is- you made that day so much more enjoyable for us all!

    I've watched a few when the wife binged them from time to time. They really do paint women in an awful light. Usually wrong, making bad decisions, sometimes out of spite. Trying way too hard at something they should easily be and to judge isn't possible in the time allotted etc. and then "saved" by the sensible man who's been shaking his head at her the whole movie

    I don't watch them, but I will sit beside my wife while she binge watches them before Christmas. It gets confusing. My wife will say something about the movie. I will watch a bit while talking to her. This happens a while later. I make a comment about the bad guy, and my wife explains that he was the bad guy in the previous movie, which ended 10 minutes ago. He is now the good guy, and the guy who was the good guy is now the bad guy.

    The thing you NEVER see anymore that used to be a thing in those 40's movies is that there was a plot, a sub plot, several other story arcs all interlaced. Now it's one crippled plot that falls apart if you aren't stone drunk.

    i've literally been on a k-drama binge for like a month now. i'm watching one now, in fact. and i agree with you. i also like that the men have no problem crying or being vulnerable or admitting they like/love the woman, even if she doesn't like them back. the protagonists also tend to not lie or be deceitful/shady for no apparent reason in their movies. i love that.

    Writing (your play your journal your whatever) at a coffee shop still looks as stupid and lame as it ever did.. this doesn't make you look smart it sends these messages: I'm unemployed, I don't have electricity cause they shut me off. My heat has been turned off, I"m alone and want to be noticed. I want people to think I'm intelligent when I'm really barely navigating a week at a time. My water is shut off so I need a public toilet. I'm really here trying to take upskirt pictures and trying to pick out vulnerable young woman. No writer wants to be away from his "stuff" to write. That's a thin disguise for a pervert.

    As a northern Canadian , growing up it was the complete opposite. We went shopping (or mom made) costumes that were intentionally huge for our snow suits to fit underneath, and the first time I saw a movie with kids trick-or-treating in pretty princess gowns that weren't covered up, and NO SNOW on the ground, I was mind blown.

    Or he just has a life he has to pay attention to—-I don’t mean he’s married or has a girlfriend, I mean he’s just a normally busy grownup—-and isn’t hovering desperately over his cellphone waiting for a call or text. He’s more likely responding to your text, then (for example) eating lunch, then responding to your next text, unless you respond to him immediately, before he gets up to eat. The simplest explanation is usually the truth. Give the benefit of the doubt u til you have concrete proof otherwise.

    I'm still not sure about mine. It was a present and we have a tiny kitchen with very limited surface space. So far, I have made good sweet potato fries in it but not much else. It bothers me every time I look at it because it takes up so much space and makes it hard to use other appliances. But I don't want to seem ungrateful. Even though I got it a week after my birthday, unwrapped.

A few days before christmas at her parent's house, she causally mentions that she needs a tripod- my father-in-law (who was an art professor at the time) was like, "oh, I have a ton from my classes that aren't used anymore. Just take whichever one you like." Not sure how I kept a straight face after that...

    I was watching a veterinarian show. They cut to the vets 6 year old daughter. She got a new puppy and her dad asked her what she wanted to name it. Her immediate response was "skullcrusher!" Her dad said "I'm not yelling skullcrusher across the park!" So they named it "skully."

    Not suddenly. You’re given the syllabus that tells you exactly what will be covered and what assignments are due and when—-with rubrics for all the assignments, to boot—-for the entire semester on the first day. It’s only a surprise if you don’t at least glance at the damned thing, though reading through it completely is what you’re supposed to do. College instructors aren’t going to babysit you like public school teachers have to, because if you’re in college, you’re expected to take care of yourself like an adult.

    This is currently my life, we're going into week 6 this Monday. What sucks even more is I commute roughly 2.5 hours each way, 3 days a week, all for the same class. (2 days of lecture and 1 day lab) all my other classes are online, which helps but trying to balance out the work of each class can be difficult. Fortunately I'm a lot older than most of my classmates and I have more experience in life in general, but sometimes it's unfortunate that I'm so much older because I'm so tired.. 😩

    Do you study while commuting? Because that was a big thing for me when I studied at the uni. Reading and making notes on the bus to and from uni when I could. Making the commute a practical study-thing makes the time spent on it a lot more tolerable. :)

    You know what kills me? From the time we're small, were sent to school for 8 hours a day, and then STILL expected to do hours of homework on top of that, after we leave and go home. Then we grow up and go to work, and are expected to do more than our pay, plus unexpected overtime, sometimes also unpaid, and sometimes even take work home. And then we want to bítch about *that*? No, it's not right. No, a lot of us, myself included, don't do it anymore. And no, school isn't paid. But still. It's almost like we're being trained for it, from the very start. Hmm...

    I once got bítched at when I managed fast food, for almost the same thing. When we'd run out of something, like say, bananas or eggs, sometimes I'd have to send someone to the grocery store with cash from the register, to buy some. When I did that, I had to send paperwork, along with a copy of the receipt, to account for the cash. When I sent the paperwork, instead of writing bananas or eggs, I'd log it as something like "long yellow fruit", or "unhatched chicken embryos". Just trying to inject a little fun into my daily drudge. The paperwork wasn't seen by anyone outside the company, and as long as they knew what was meant, and the money was properly accounted for, it didn't matter. No one ever cared. In fact, a few laughed. Well, we got a new district manager, and she didn't like fun. I got a very angry lecture about professionalism, and "taking things seriously". I told her I DID take things seriously, of course I did, otherwise I wouldn't bother entering the paperwork in the first place. But that she didn't have to worry about that ever happening again. And she didn't. I left soon after that. She was why-not just for this, but for many other things she did/said too.
