And somehow when my ex asked for help, I’ve spent weekends at her house carrying heavy stuff, assembling furniture and fixing stuff. Crap, I need to set boundaries, don’t I?
I couldn’t find the oldest building overall, but the oldest surviving house was built in 1716. While my city was settled earlier, it was essentially a “boom town” of the early Industrial Revolution in the US
If they have a concept of danger, it’s enough to blast away
They “became aware of a knife in his pocket”. That’s why there was no light reflecting
Man, I used to think I was so handy, doing household, appliance, and car repairs, etc ……
It’s been a while since I needed to do anything, and now I have this cursed ikea furniture. Somehow it took three weekends to put a bed together, and it’s not even done since I broke another part. I’ve never before broken ikea furniture on assembly and have never needed support or replacement parts, yet this effing bed has needed replacements twice.
I don’t know if my hands are cursed and I’ll never again be handy, or if it’s ikea
Why doubt? That’s outstanding! As an astronaut, they want to be in space and have been trained for space. If I were an astronaut I’d be frustrated at piddly one week trips and want to be up there with the big boys taking a full shift off planet (not that I have any idea)
Because it’s big. And it spins.
Seriously, it would have to be bigger than any space structure yet launched, it introduces extra stresses and failure points, and most importantly would make it difficult to dock or space walk. Every incoming ship would need to match the spin rate. Every space walk would tend to fling off the astronaut if something goes wrong.
Also, it may need to be bigger than you expect. There’s info somewhere on the internet estimating how big so the rotation doesn’t affect balance or cause nausea
How the heck is one “city guy” getting this crazy with animals. If he hadn’t come forward with them, I’m not sure I would have believed it. What kind of drugs was he on, or how long was that worm munching away?
Right, or the bystander that got shot in the head could have returned fire, if only he were armed
While there’s not enough context here, they do need to get used to it. Of course, help a student out in the current situation but the fact is they are going to experience sexism and do need to figure out how to handle it on their own or how to find any help they need.
I don’t like denigrating my fellow software engineers, but it’s a field known to be male dominated, with a stereotype of poor social skills and presence of a lot of people from more conservative cultures. I like to think most of us are neither sexist most racist but odds are most women in the field will run into it
And I don’t understand that, because my wimpy electric vehicle will leave your archaic, noisy, pollution belching vehicle in the dust, and will do so in effortless silence
Wait, are you telling me I’m not obese? It’s just a stereotype? Whew! Waffle House, here I come!
There is a point to think about though …. I’m all for supplying Ukraine with as much help as they want, both now and rebuilding, but it’s their country getting destroyed, their people getting maimed and killed. And they don’t have an endless supply. I don’t know a way out of the current mess, but it can’t just continue like this
No, but only because we subdivide what layman think of as IT into many specialties
As DevOps , I whisper to a room full of computers to do what you told them plus do what some others tell you to break what you did, then run a big hammer over it, and hand all the pieces back to you
Huh, I came to say pretty much the same thing. I’m DevOps, more or less, by I tell people I’m a programmer since that’s what I do
Wasn’t there an entire ship of Audis?
It’s any lithium battery, not just one evil villain. At least you’re not recharging your car inside the living space of your house, like your computer or phone or e-bike or e-scooter or vacuum cleaner
Personally I think there’s a market for a fire proof container for charging batteries. I’ve been thinking about stacking cinder blocks in my basement for charging yardcare and tool batteries such that they couldn’t catch anything just in case
I’m completely on board with that, except for the “wish fulfillment”. I don’t know how it got twisted around that you could presume to tell God what to do or that he would - it seems so entirely inconsistent with anything else about religious beliefs
So we have this all powerful and all knowing supreme being , right? And he’s got a plan for the entire universe and all of time, right? But he’ll disrupt all of that to grant you a favor if you wish hard enough? Or you can blame him if something bad happens to you specifically, out of all the universe over all time? What hubris, what ego could make us think we’re in control and can use it for personal gain?
