Make tickets non-transferable, boom no more scalpers.

Are the real communists kept around back with the real scotsmen?

Barley tea is delicious.

Not nuts but very close, they’re called “achenes” (ə-ˈkēn). The only Important difference is that nuts have a thick, protective shell but we’re being specific here.

Yeah I got a cheap Harbor Freight jigsaw and I hate it. Cut line indicator is useless, blade slips out of the roller guide so the cut doesnt stay square or straight, the keyless clamp is so inflexible I’d rather just have the classic screw-tight mechanism…

I put it away and used a circular saw, coping saw, and japanese pull saw to finish the project rather than keep fighting with it.

There’s also ethical concerns regarding sustainable fishing practices.

Plenty of people’s edge is somewhere around Weenie Hut Junior which definitely complicates things when you also want to capture the “uses all the hard skulls in Halo” crowd.

I just put my hand over the hole, takes two seconds. And I don’t have to clear out under the sink and get a bucket. (And it’s only very rarely necessary)

Plungers certainly do help with sinks. Loosens up a partial clog easily in my experience.

Single-handedly? Nah. It pulled a lot of existing ideas together though, and it’s certainly responsible for the popularity. Another Minecraft influence is early-access.

In case anyone thinks sand is automatically a better option, it’s not. Fine particles settle in the benthic layer of streams and ponds, smothering everything that needs exposed gravel beds for their life cycle. This impacts invertebrates directly (harming everything that eats them) and disrupts many fishes egg-laying.

Most competitive shooters are using special equipment and he looks comparatively very casual.

I used to have carefully organized folders so I could accurately represent my face when.

It can be avoided, but as I said elsewhere we make calculated risks all the time. Individually and as a society. 1 in 5 Americans will get skin cancer at some point but we allow tanning salons. Red meat is linked to stomach cancer. Alcohol. Tobacco. Backyard pools. There is none-to-limited legal or medical protection granted to people from a huge range of dangers to ourselves and others and they are broadly accepted as in the realm of “personal freedoms” or in some way necessary to society, like the dangerous jobs of logging or roofing or firefighting.

I’m not saying safety shouldn’t be a goal, I’m saying that risk-free is functionally impossible and people disagree on “acceptable risk.”

That’s one of the weirder ways I’ve seen to say “I don’t enjoy competitive games and everyone who does is stupid.”

It’s been a while since I’ve done kitchen work but I’ve never had an automatic lifter. We just had someone being paid to cook food and watch the fryer. The issues start piling up in places that make the cashier handle front, drive-thru, fryer, whatever else all at once rather than pay an extra $150 in labor for the day.

We should only drive 5mph because a kid could run out into any street, theoretically.

The actual answer is that we take calculated risks all the time and trade safety for convenience every day.

Killing Pictochat, Street Pass, and in-game voice chat has nothing to do with subscriptions.

Nintendo fully panicked over the prospect of child predators and put a ton of barriers up for player interaction.

Fine, I’ll bite.

Salt mining is a human invention, though not at all a recent one. Seeking out natural salt deposits to directly consume is essential herbivore behavior because vegetation alone is an insufficient source of key minerals. Adding animal products, especially seafood, to a diet should be sufficient for minimum healthy intake of not just sodium but all trace minerals and vitamins but concentrated supplements are obviously also available and careful meal planning can get it done with just plant products. That is of course a truth for the modern, developed world and not at all indicative of our biological heritage.

The downsides of slight-to-moderate overindulgence of salt, mostly high blood pressure through water retention, can be offset by a more active lifestyle. (Sweat more, hydrate more, flush the excess out.)

And it’s cue. A queue is a waiting line.
