  • What are some words that you have or had troubles spelling and made up funny ways to help remember them?

    Jump

  • Not sure if this actually counts for the question, but I had a friend who called the Hittites “hitty-titties” when we had a Bible class together, as a way to remember them for a test. I still think of that whenever I come across the word Hittite.

  • Sounds like a podcast featuring a Weyoun, ACA Brunt, and Shran. I'd check that out.

  • I actually like Jake. That being said, I always find it amusing when I read the production notes section of any episode of DS9 on Memory Alpha and I come across "Cirroc Lofton does not appear in this episode." Part of me wants to believe that Jake or his agent went through every episode to look for the ones he/his client was not in.

  • They have the Star Trek equivalent of a podcast. Now, what's the title?

  • Translucent Purple Casing

    Jump

  • Went to a moving sale a few weeks ago. Dude had a ton of computer and gaming related stuff. But what caught my eye was the translucent purple Drop mechanical keyboard. I was never a keyboard girlie. But I became one for that beauty.

  • Gonna have a whole ass watermelon in me.

  • My grandfather straight up told this to my aunt when she was a kid. Even went so far a few days later to tell her that he could see leaves starting to sprout when he looked in her ears.

  • Does a PBJ have a defined "up" side?

    Jump

  • I've had cats just shred the roll in their attempts. Toddlers don't care about configuration. They will unroll that paper with impunity.

  • Don't know if it's still around, but Smucker's or someone made a jar of peanut butter and jelly swirl. It was good, but yeah, the mouthfeel was off when used for the sandwich.

  • Oh man, you just reminded me of those... we don't have Trader Joe's in Hawai'i (which is kinda weird, yeah? Given their whole aesthetic and all). I've not really cared much. But you just brought to mind something they have that is truly excellent.

  • This is the first time I've ever heard of this. I'm guessing it's to help prevent the bread from soaking up the peanut butter and jelly?

  • This is the way.

  • This is one of those things my wife and I have debated back and forth for years. Aesthetically, I prefer the "under" but in terms of actual usability the "over" orientation is best. However, that being said, living in Hawai'i has brought a new insight on this subject: wind. Where we live is super breezy and we keep our windows open year-round. Rolled paper that is oriented in the "over" configuration is more liable to get blown around. The "under" configuration prevents this. But for us this only really applies to our paper towels in the kitchen.

  • let's get controversial with the holiday question's.

    Jump

  • An open-faced sandwich is not a sandwich because nothing is being sandwiched. Unless the "open face" is part of the presentation, intended to be enclosed upon consumption.

  • If a hoagie or hero is a sandwich, then it is only logical that a hotdog is also a sandwich.

    EDIT: Since my criteria here has been cited by others and this comment, as initially presented, contributes very little to the discussion, I am amending this comment with the following information: Based on Ken Burns' Baseball documentary (at least my memory of it; been a few years), the hot dog has its genesis with guys selling food outside of a baseball park. They were selling sausages that were coiled, and served on a bun. The buns ran out and so they grabbed some Italian bread sold nearby, cutting the sausages and laying them in the bread, sliced sideways. This posits that the foundational concept of the hotdog was a conventional sandwich.

  • AOC takes more steps toward 2028 run for president

  • I personally know people who voted for Trump over Kamala specifically because she was a woman. I personally know people who voted for Trump over Harris for the exact same reason

    Uh... did you mean to say "Hillary" up there at some point? Because "Kamala" and "Harris" are the same person...

  • The upbeat version makes its first appearance right after the Xindi attack, iirc (or maybe it's after they learn the aftermath of it, because the attack itself was a S2 cliffhanger), which cracks me up every time. Death, destruction, we're going to war! And then that acoustic guitar starts strumming a jaunty little melody. I lose it every time I do a re-watch.

  • Legit ethical question: since LLMs are trained on stolen knowledge and art, is stealing an AI book theft? Also, given the current US laws about how an AI "work" cannot be copyrighted, what's to stop me from taking someone's AI "book" and just slapping my name on the cover and reselling it?
