  • Could it be The Praxis by Walter Jon Williams? If so, I didn't enjoy it either.

  • Taking a drive when it's sunny and traffic is light.

    Cooking from a new recipe and having it come out good.

    Sliding into bed on new sheet night.

  • Interesting. Radiative cooling using the sky as a heat sink needs very low humidity, doesn't it?

  • What's the link between Firefly and the other ones?

  • some however are weird and say arc-ee-pelE-go

    We hunt those people down and sacrifice them during the yearly Ritual.

  • I got so tired of them I actually started asking ChatGPT for recipes instead. It's mostly worked out.

  • More screen length = more space for embedded video ads.

  • Global basilisk hack. Everyone staring at a screen has a fatal seizure and tips over. Uncontacted tribes in the Amazon basin inherit the Earth.

  • Pineapple soup?

  • Is to carry out a death sentence.

  • Example : at one point it was seen as obscene to talk about copulation, coit and fornication. So, for the houses where the king approved fornication, they simply created a modest acronym F.U.C.K. (short for : Fornication Under King’s Consent) that later became itself seen as (of course) obscene.

    I believe that theory has been debunked and 'fuck' is from low German, meaning 'to strike'.

  • I don't need a whole pineapple to cook a hawaiian pizza.

  • Yeah, pineapple pieces in tins.

  • I bought myself a lava lamp because yes, they're cool. Takes an hour to warm up, though. I usually lose my focus on it before that.

  • Burger buns. Salad greens. Tinned pineapple.

  • As a child in the local library, I always passed the large print section and there was always this one book there: The Spitting Image. It had a furious-looking gargoyle on the cover and it used to scare me at first, but over time it seemed goofier and goofier. And since as an adult I have to fight the urge to be goofy when I should be serious, I felt like it was suitable.

  • Google Translate thinks that motto says 'dead man walking'. Appropriate.

  • The times I've said have been because I genuinely thought the OP was the unreasonable one in the described situation.

  • Nope. I've only drunk two Gatorades, both blue. The first one convinced me I prefer coke, the second one was when I had gastric flu, hadn't eaten in three days and badly needed to replace some electrolites. I was a rosebush at that point, if my memory is reliable.
