Yet another refugee who washed up on the shore after the great Reddit disaster of 2023

  • And, even after all that, when you go to put the sheet on the bed you still find a sock.

  • Funny, I live in California where there's are some LJS's, but I've never been to one. There are no Captain D's here, but I've eaten in one a few times because I used to travel to Alabama for work. It was honestly fine. It was basically just what I expected from the phrase "fast food fish and chips."

  • A&W is the best of the top few major brand root beers, but there are some in most grocery stores that are much better. Virgil's and Henry Weinhart's probably the best of the easily found ones.

  • A lot of people read the comments without having read the article, so for them here's the bit you're taking about:

    At one point, attorneys had to admit to Reyes that they had never read articles which were included as evidence. Reyes then said they had "cherry picked" and "egregiously misquoted" studies put forward by the Pentagon on transgender people decreasing the lethality of the military.

  • Everything also makes sense if viewed from the point of view of benefiting Russia.

  • That really does sound like a nightmare. I'm glad you're in a better place now.

    Is he still around doing his lying thing to other people m

  • Wow, that's horrifying. He sounds psychotic and psychological. That must be hard to come back from without permanent trust issues. I hope you're doing okay. Was it long ago?

  • That must have been horrible. Did it all come out at once, or did you piece things together a little at a time?

  • Recently retired from a place that makes rocket engines, and there's just so much. Start with a rocket engine itself - the combustion gasses are like 3300 C (6000 F) with more than 400,000 lb of thrust. But there's a lot associated. We dealt with lots of liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen. We have a giant braze oven that we can put a whole rocket nozzle into. It's quite an arsenal.

  • They're delicious too

  • Peaches are great to have because they're so different from what you get at the grocery store. A peach ripened on the tree is much more flavorful than once picked unripe, but a ripe peach is so soft that they pick them unripe for shipping. Pulling a ripe peach off the tree and eating it is a religious experience.

  • We had already had a Trump term, we knew exactly what he is. I might give a tiny bit of credence to people who voted for him in 2016 because they believed the bullshit and then regretted voting for him. But this time, no way. And we all knew this time would be worse.

  • How the hell is that disrespectful to Jews? It's disrespectful to one half Jew: Maher.

  • And our constitution explicitly says the government can't favor one religion over another. There are Christians in our country who are trying to undo that - who think we're a Christian nation - but the US was settled by diverse groups wanting the freedom to practice their own religions, and the ability to do that was built into our constitution. So a religious text isn't justification for something being legal here.

  • Your mom having a say in who the other wives are is not the same as you mom being able to have other husbands.

  • What bullshit. I'm over 60 and no one I know thinks this way. Remember, we're folks why grew up before the internet, saw it come about, (saw the enshitification of it), and saw AI content surge. We know that the AI content is relatively recent. This makes no sense

  • Okay, thank you. I am, in fact, running Windows. I appreciate the info.

  • Hmm, okay, that sounds good. This is a Python? So I just need to install Python and then download libpst?

    For context, I have a CS degree (1985) and was a software engineer for many years, but I went up a management ladder like 20 years ago, and about the only programming I've done since has been office VBA. I'm retired now. I've never used Python or git personally, though I managed people who did. So a couple pointers to get me on the right track would be appreciated.

  • The free trials all limit use to like 25 emails and I have orders or magnitude more than that.

    Edit: oh, you probably mean the free trial of Outlook? Is there such a thing? If so, that might be viable. As I recall, the MS tool only works with a locally installed version of Outlook, not 365. I'll have to look into that.
