  • But there isn’t more space between the seats

  • That’s bizarre ….. during the independence violence the news always refers to it as East Timor, so it would have been more literally east east

  • You don’t even need to do that: pressing your nail in requires too much nail, but “slitting the neck” can be done with less fingernail (and feels edgy)

  • Legit strategy: a buddy of mine does this to fight tendinitis. I don’t remember if it came from his doctor or from online

  • Have you had any success? How? Every time I’ve started down that road, it’s a maze of twisty passages, all alike

  • Huh, I wonder if that’s partly me …….

    • Most people I recognize by “normal” things like faces
    • ephemeral people like waitstaff or someone I pass in the street, never get committed to memory
    • but some people I can’t distinguish from others, no matter how different. I never knew why but maybe gait

    For example there were two kids in my high school. I interacted with at least one of them on most days, so they were familiar. One was much taller than the other, one was brown hair the other black hair, they were in different classes, one was in a club with me the other not. They really had nothing in common that I ever figured out. Yet all four years of high school I could not tell them apart.

    I am really bad with names, which may be relevant.

  • Once you put “mega” in there, is there such a thing as a legitimate “pastor/priest”?

  • The article states it is sound frequencies “not normally measured”. It doesn’t say “can’t be”, so the first step is an objective measurement

    Of course it goes further to point out that some things can only be heard/felt by a tiny percentage of people - the hard part is setting the allowed threshold and not perhaps that’s where your blind study idea would be helpful

  • And people with dissenting opinions?

  • No. He’s fine with female reporters that know their place. /s

  • Yep, she’s the only politician who’s ever told crowds what they wanted to hear.

    ….. and that’s exactly the same as bribery

  • In office, vs after

    Quid pro quo, vs opinion and connections

    Abusing the office for personal enrichment, vs speaking as a citizen with unique experiences for personal enrichment

  • It’s an accelerator. At some point even the wealthiest must be affected. If humanoid robots become e a practical means of automation, suddenly there will be a lot of desperate people. At some point UBI might be the cheap solution for the wealthy

  • I’m never sure where the joke ends, but everyone’s aware of dynamic stability right? The stabilizer pushes the tail down so flight is level, but if you lose lift, the tail goes up, the nose down, you gain speed, and lift is restored. If you gain too much speed, the tail is pushed down, nose up, you lose speed and level off.

    Military jets have other priorities

  • Then there are a few aircraft that can do it like old movies. Perfectly safe to fly with the “window” open, and a hell of a lot of fun

  • Wages in the uk are low relative to the US, at least in my current company, and train tickets into London for those working in the office are ridiculous

  • While I completely agree, to be clear, there’s no requirement for overtime pay for salaried workers, and this is widely abused by companies

    My brother works in a unionized industry and is the only exception I know: as a salaried employee he is not part of the union but he does get some union-driven benefits …. Not that he’ll ever admit that

  • While I grew up hearing this advice, I don’t remember anyone taking it literally. Even as a little one I always understood it to mean the same as “walk it off”, also not entirely literal.

    What they really meant was the more literal and toxic “don’t just cry like a baby “
