I can’t think of anything offhand. I really like Chappell Roan – her songs just make me viscerally happy. Eleine sounds great, and I’ve loved Sia ever since I heard Titanium. But chills? No one I listen to provokes that particular reaction.
Oh, give it time.
I’m not sure if I should say I use linux or not:
What’s your fav conlang? I dabbled in Esperanto on duolingo a while back.
Maybe I should have kept dabbling; about all I remember anymore is ‘hundo’.
What topics are you most passionate about?
And - counterfeiting? For olive oil? I’m gobsmacked.
I played it. Beautiful game. Terrifying.
I didn’t think I had thalassophobia until Subnautica.
What did you think of Torchlight? I’m a bit surprised it didn’t make your list.
…well, then again, I haven’t played anything you listed, so I can’t compare.
Similar. I played a lot of Diablo 2 back in the day, but Blizzard got a lot worse as a game publisher during the years they were focused on WoW. I’m not super interested in starting up on Diablo 3 or 4 or even Starcraft 2.
For a different direction on this – I played Subnautica. It was terrifying. I’m not going to get the expansion or Subnautica 2 when it comes out. shudder
I thought the cat was prancing around in a coating of snow on a sidewalk. Looking again…oof. Yeah, that’ll burn :(
Fair enough. $300?! Yikes! For that amount you ought to be able to get a whole new dishwasher. Or maybe not, I’m not sure how much the tariffs have jacked up prices in that area.
Doing a quick search…looks like about half the states are “right to work” ones.
And…well, I don’t live in a ‘right to work’ state, but I couldn’t join a union either way. There aren’t many unions in my line of work.
You can get a replacement pump for ~$50 and install it yourself in like 15 minutes. I did that a few months ago with my dishwasher. I was blown away at how easy it was.
It’s probably worth it to do one more repair before you pitch it IMO.
As for brands, I’d avoid GE. That’s what I have, and it’s been enough trouble over the past 6 years that I was tempted to replace it last fall (but I’m still glad I powered through the repair – seriously, it was SO EASY!)
Go to a zoo and insult the monkeys?
Right to work laws make it so workers in a union shop don’t need to join the union.
Are you thinking of at-will employment? It’s a common mixup.
Oh, man, I’d almost forgotten about the Latvian potato jokes from reddit :D
Can’t sue 'em if you’re already in the ground…
IDK, it worked out well for me. I lived in a duplex for about 3 years where the landlord lived upstairs. He took pride in keeping up his properties really well. Super responsive for any issues. I remember texting him about the heat one time, he was at my door to look at it in under 10 minutes.
It turned out to be a pretty simple thing - he bled the radiators and added some water to bring the boiler pressure up - but still. 10 minutes on a Sunday morning!
Fuck, I’m over here wondering whether it isn’t ALREADY too late 🙁
You could try codidact. I’m not sure what kind of gatekeeping they have around account creation, but the project basically started up with “Stackoverflow sucks now, let’s make our own!”
Hmm… All of them?
I don’t have kids.
Ha, ha, yes, I’m very funny :P
To answer your secondary question, well, I’m not sure. I can think of infuriating things adults did when I was a kid, but it isn’t something I think a lot about day-to-day.
Things like hearing a dismissive “No one ever said life was fair”, maybe.
These don’t sound like MAGA sentiments to me, so you can probably breathe easy.
