I really liked minutes to midnight. A lot more introspective and mature.
Apparently eleventy-bajillion dollars wasn’t enough.
I just cancelled my gas station rewards program because they moved everything to a mandatory app. I will not use your app.

This is literally the opposite of what happened. “To damp” was used to mean “to moisten” in the 1670s, a hundred and fifty years before “dampen” started to be used for it also in the early 1800s.
As with many if not most of the pedants in this thread, you’re dying on a hill that’s actually just straight-up wrong.
Natural human languages always have ambiguity. There are plenty of conlangs (constructed languages) specifically designed to avoid ambiguity though if you wanted to use one of those.
If such a version of English were ever made, it would immediately gain ambiguity as soon as people began speaking it fluently (and same for the conlang if a community of speakers began using it fluently as well).
There’s been no meaning shift. The “possessive” and “envious” uses of jealous both date from the 14th century in English, and both senses were present in the ancestors of these words all the way back to Greek.
Same. Sauce ruins good fries.
I always just go to America’s Best. $80 for an eye exam and two pairs of glasses is hard to beat.
This sounds like that “can you fry an egg at the top of Mt Everest” game.
Thanks for taking the time to write such an informed and in-depth comment!
Still not buying a Samsung.
Instead he should be paying higher taxes so the city/state can ~have more money to build a bigger and stronger social safety net~ funnel more money to the organized crime syndicates well known to operate at all levels of Gotham’s government.
They hated him because he told them the truth.
If you took away the majority of the bacon this would be a really good breakfast 👍🏽
Excellent post in general, but it should be noted that the meaning of “wine-dark sea” is still very much disputed.
Sekiro has the best combat of any game I’ve ever played, so I’d be satisfied with just having something like it in other FS games.
I’m on Linux mint 22 and use surfshark as my VPN. It has a Killswitch to ensure that I can’t be connected to the Internet when the VPN isn’t active.
But, when I turned on the Killswitch, suddenly all of my Wi-Fi options disappeared completely from my network manager. I can’t connect to the Internet at all - the option is completely gone.
I disabled the Killswitch and rebooted but that didn’t do anything.
I used time shift to revert to a snapshot from yesterday but still no Wi-Fi options.
I tried disabling and stopping the process that turning on the Killswitch enables, but no luck there either.
Uninstalling surfshark doesn’t do anything either and just requires another time shift.
At this point I’m at my wit’s end. I have no idea what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated
