I try not to judge, but I’m also utterly confused as to why the parents wouldn’t immediately have brought the child in for the shot after finding the bat, visible bite or not…

I guess we should have added the word “notable”

I’m terribly sorry, you left the door wide open ;)

I’m curious, what makes AppImage a good choice for the lazy developer? Is it easier to create?

To be fair, when I hear a union rep saying “this outcome was good for the employer”, I kind of assume it is consequently bad for the workers. I don’t really believe win/win situations really happen in labour agreement negos lol

CDs just don’t have that “collector’s item” characteristic (yet?). Physical album sales are low enough nowadays that enthusiasts that are looking for a specific medium probably make up a very large portion of the buyers.

Raw/natural PB tastes so much better anyways. I can’t buy anything else since I’ve tasted it.

$91 million in fines for T-Mobile + $12 million for Sprint. T-mobile made $8.32 billion of net income in 2023. The fines represent 1.21% of their net income.

$57 million for AT&T. AT&T made $14.2 billion in the same time period. 0.42% of their net income in fines.

$48 million for Verizon. They made $11.6 billion. 0.41%.

In comparison, let’s take the median working class guy making median income, rounded up a couple thousands to a nice $40k/year. We’re comparing net income, so after income taxes, deductions, living expenses, let’s be generous, guy is great at budgeting, lives frugally, say he’s still left with $20k/year. The worst fine is roughly equivalent to the average American having to pay a $242 fine. Not even taking into account that in this situation, the guy likely made tons of profit from the transaction in the first place.

Psychotic depression, or psychosis episode by some undiagnosed issue, altered state due to substance/meds mix… the mind is a fragile thing. I’ll (hopefully) never fully understand it, but it can happen to “regular” people, given some mix of circumstances.

Sometimes they’re also just killers with a death wish 🤷‍♂️

This. OP seems to discredit those numbers based on two arguments.

1. They’re not personal computers but work PCs
2. Those computers are mostly using a web browser and that’s it - no “paradigm change”

However, this is ignoring that

1. those computers counted when they were on Windows too
2. those genuinely working from a browser could probably have done so on Windows as well, no “paradigm change” either going on here
3. the usage stats are counted from web hits anyway

Considering this, I’m not entirely sure why the numbers wouldn’t be any more or less significant than before.

Of fucking course we now have cases of this very preventable disease too. We’re not immune to the wave of anti-intellectualism that leads to things like anti-vax to get any traction at all.

Here it's the pickup trucks

I'm glad you found strategies that work for you. However, I had a couple thoughts:

I don't know if it's a bad choice of work from a non native speaker (as a non native speaker myself), but you don't "fix" ADHD as much as you work around it. It's a neurobiolobical condition, it's something you have, or you don't. A successful ADHD treatment is all about symptom management. You don't "cure" yourself from it. I also don't mean to rain on your parade, the "fixes" are more like Band-Aids. From experience, how one's ADHD expresses itself tends to shift with time, and along does the strategies that work or not.

If things were running on such low margins and shit working conditions, maybe, maybe, the industry as a whole was running on hope and dreams?
