Lol at your history, short as it is. Hunter Biden shit and defending Elon.

Unfortunately we’ve only got about a billion.

Yeah. DC has some very pretty metro stations. NYC has SO MANY stops in Manhattan it was silly when visiting.

I play the Sunday as a group and my God. Crosswords have some of the most bullshit rules.

You can put multiple letters on a single square? Reebus. You can also have an answer that’s a whole phrase instead of a word.

That link linked to /modcoord at perhaps dozens of moderators promised to leave, which is far more impactful than users. I know just from watching kbin, lemmy and other sites grow from this summer on that hundreds to thousands likely left reddit. Unfortunately it’s probably a drop in the bucket but Web 2.0 was always probably going to win. The only real way I can see of us getting out of that en masse if when each site inevitably kills themselves through mismanagement.

I actually used to rely on that, using site:reddit.com for most searches. Reddit had some of the best in-depth discussion and tech advice I could find. Compared to the multitudes of blogs, YT videos, and decades-old forum posts that normally came up, reddit usually provided useful info. And it’s pretty much the only reason I’m ever on the site now: the only results for some searches are on reddit.

Eventually if the quality of the posts decline, their SEO presence probably will as well. But google has been absolute dogshit for about a year now so who knows what that field will look like in another year. =/

Ever since earlier this year I’ve had WAY more friends, family and news articles I’ve seen mention or link to reddit than the past. I don’t know if it’s confirmation bias since I left reddit or if it just gained popularity at the same time or what. But I used reddit for ~12 years and few other people in my circle used it heavily. Now it seems like it exploded?

Wait, you can do that? Why not bypass Congress to sell arms to Ukraine then?

Well that’s complicated. A LOT of people who can get pregnant don’t have regular cycles, don’t have predictable ovulation, don’t know or have all the regular signs of ovulation, etc, that make tracking fertile periods tough. They are also people who bleed during ovulation, or have sporadic bleeding throughout their cycle, or bleed frequently from sex, all of which can confound predicting ovulation.

To compound that, sperm can live up to 5 days in the receivers reproductive tract extending a typical ovulation period to 11 days. https://www.webmd.com/infertility-and-reproduction/sperm-and-semen-faq

What about this is not how pregnancy works, exactly?

Friends who are OK talking about and don’t shame you about sex. Also friends who have a sense of fucking humor.

Wow that’s a huge variety of utility apps. And most people are used to granting permissions to apps at this point without considering since most have that pop-up.

And if that wasn’t required and the hours were paid, it’d be no problem. Especially if they allowed people to flex their work times so working late nights was feasible.

Important info:

-The breach window was roughly 1:30 PM-2:30 PM Eastern (1830-1930 UTC+0) on 12/25.
-Downfall is safe to launch once more, and has been since roughly 2:30-2:40 PM Eastern on 12/25 (1920 UTC+0 on 12/25).
-If you did not launch Downfall in the breach window, you’re clear.
-If you got an automatic update for Downfall on 12/25 but did NOT launch, you’re clear.
-If you launched Downfall via the Steam Workshop (meaning you actually launched Slay the Spire), you’re clear.
-If you did launch Downfall on 12/25 and succeeded and everything looked normal, you’re clear.
-If you did launch Downfall on 12/25 and saw a command-prompt like screen, that starting spitting out a bunch of text after about 10 seconds, you’re in the clear. That was actually just the Java log which we usually keep hidden, but accidentally left visible when we restored the game.
-If you did launch Downfall on 12/25 and got a ‘no .exe found’ type of error, you’re clear. That was us exploding the game to prevent anyone else from being affected.
-If you did launch Downfall on 12/25 during the breach window and got a Unity library installer popup, please continue to read. You may be also at risk.

I’ve read them all and liked them all. They all feel quite different.

Pact is urban fantasy about a protagonist dealt the shittiest hand and dealing with that. It gets pretty dark but I really like the world it creates.

Twig is about kids at an academy in a world where alchemy and biology took off. To the point where grade schoolers creating Frankenstein’s Monster would be a class project. It deals with flawed characters in a really unique world.

Ward is the sequel to Worm staring a very traumatized Glory Girl. Imo it’s about healing and dealing with trauma and forgiveness. It’s the toughest of Wildbow’s works in part because he got a LOT of negativity during this that made writing harder. But I liked it for what it was and how it expanded on the Entities lore.

Pale takes place in the world of Pact but in the future with different setting and characters. 3 girls introduced to magic with a strong emphasis on the Others and how they and humans coexist. I think it’s his best work so far and would suggest picking up here if something else doesn’t strike your fancy. Wildbow has said he likes writing in this world and I think it shows.

I’d also check out: https://www.patreon.com/wildbow/about , it has concise descriptions of each work by the author.

Ah sorry. I try to not appear like I’m advertising. It’s Pale by Wildbow which just finished. Modern fantasy with 3 girls as protagonists. Rituals, other-than-human creatures and spell cards are a big part of the magic system.

I do not see that option under the Dropbox settings.

As a reader of a certain web serial, watching her deal with not being an innate magic user by using spell cards was very fun. That world didn’t know what hit them.

A representative should do what is right, and that doesn’t necessarily mean what his constituents believe is right.

So lie to get into office just to do whatever you want? That sounds like a Republican. Ironic because it flies in the face of a what a representative is supposed to be.
