I can’t remember the name of an excel spreadsheet I created years ago, which has continually matured with lots of changes. I often have to search for it of the many I have for different purposes.
Trusting your memory is a naive, amateur approach.

Alright, I’m stealin’ that!


Exactly.
I’d say that’s most languages in a nutshell - they start wherever, then grow organically based on a million reasons.
And the written form is nothing more than an attempt to capture how it sounds, to codify how it’s currently used, not to be prescriptive.
John McWhorter explains this really well in “Great Languages of the World” - he’s pretty light-hearted and amused by things like how convoluted and inconsistent English is, while also delving into how different languages likely came to be the way they are.


They sell kits to make your own custom-fit silicone plugs. They’re like $10 on Amazon.
Work great. Push the goo into your ear, wait a few minutes and it’s cured enough to take out. Wait another hour or so and it’s fully cured.


And here I am with my 20 year old little truck and don’t slow down for anything.


I’d say the headphone jack and SSD are a fair trade.
Wireless charging is all but useless - I’ve had it on phones since at least 2017 and it just doesn’t work.
It does charge, but it’s so slow to not be worth it, especially with battery sizes today. And it still generates a lot of heat in the phone. I could live with the heat if it charged at a reasonable rate.


Remember kids, you MUST ALWAYS have the latest and greatest update!


Impartial?
NPR hasn’t been impartial in my lifetime. See also the radio programs the US projected to the rest of the world (I forget the name of it) - essentially a propaganda arm of the government…
Government should have zero involvement with such stuff.


When I smell my hair burning


Well said.
OP’s full of shit.
Probably conflating ECT with “shock collars”.


I don’t
Any more than I think about Canadians, or Italians, or Welsh, or Czech.
When pushed, best I got is “you do you”


Hahah, enjoy the upvote
This is what I always go back to. Had it been faked, and the Soviet Union knew, wouldn’t they have used that info to embarrass the US?
And they definitely would’ve known.
They are?
Where was the memo? Guess I missed it.
Also I’ve never heard anyone call Musk “tough”.


Don’t need to convince me - breakfast potatoes with roasted onions is fantastic


Not youtube, but check your local library for productions by The Great Courses/The Teaching Company.
They produce videos of actual college courses by professors from schools like Columbia, Harvard, etc.
There used to be one on multiple religions, it was very long (probably 40+ 30 min videos). They’ve since split it into separate courses on each religion.
It’s really amazing, the professors are completely neutral (or perhaps sympathetic/understanding as to the circumstances that birthed each religion). They all approach it from an historical context to develop an understanding of each religion.
TGC also has a couple courses on Pagan beliefs, Nordic religions (for lack of a better word), etc.
I’ve collected about ten of the courses and ripped them to Mp4 and Mp3 so I can watch or listen as I want.
Not sure why so many people decided to downvote your question - it’s good to want to understand human history and the paradigms that developed over time to bring us here today.
I gave you an upvote when you were zero, and someone has already downvoted that. Bunch of Luddites.


Funny someone downvoted you - clearly they’ve never dealt with something un- or poorly documented.


I think that’s just movies - kids just wouldn’t like coffee because it’s bitter. No one I’ve known has said kids can’t have coffee, just recognize they won’t like it.
Hell, my father let me taste his coffee and beer when I was 5-ish because I was curious. I disliked the coffee completely, but the beer had something…
I stumbled on liking coffee in my 20’s.
Edit: caffeine effects people differently. As a young adult caffeine wouldn’t keep me from sleeping, today if I have coffee late in the day it may impact my sleep. A sibling can’t have any caffeine after lunch or it definitely messes with sleep.
It only goes in your canal a small amount. The instructions are really good.
And like you I tested it first.
