Don’t be kinkshaming.

Hear hear! Shaming Americans for their preference for unhealthy food is pretty racist.

Came here to say Dijon mustard. A jar of mustard lasts me 6 months, so a couple extra bucks for the good stuff doesn’t amount to much.

There is also a potential health difference. Lunch meat tends to be loaded with preservatives and falls into the category of “processed meat”.

There’s nothing wrong with new england maple syrup, but yes, real maple syrup not “pancake syrup” with maple flavoring.

I would preemptively confront the security officer telling telling him that woman was nuts or at least mistaken, and seek to straighten things out.

Of course that presumes I don’t have reason to think that doing so puts me at risk of violence or something, if for example this scenario is in some kind of fascist police state, I’m a persecuted minority, etc.

But ignoring the cop and letting him apprehend you while probably interpreting your actions as fleeing is probably not the best choice.

The basic screen design is pathetic. When I do a search I want to see search results. The whole right half of the screen is taken by related searches (your example differs from mine where it puts that Wikipedia summary in the upper right). Then half of the left side is taken up by a “people also ask” block. That leaves a quarter of the screen for search results, which with their inefficient spacing, fits 2 whole results before needing to scroll! If I scroll down I get 7 more before needing to use paging.

When they first rolled it out, they asked for feedback. Good luck trying to find where to submit that.

I’m going to use this as an opportunity to reminisce about an insane laptop of the past: I once had a thinkpad W700ds. I chose this because work was paying for it, and I wanted a powerful machine and a 17 screen. This was a no compromises “mobile workstation.” I knew it wasn’t going to be light or slim, but my attitude was, what, am I afraid of getting a little extra exercise carrying it around?

But I really wasn’t imagining quite what I got. It weighed almost 11 pounds (maybe more, because I think I added an extra drive). And it was big. Extra thick. I had to search really hard to find a backpack that would actually fit it, and what I ended up having to get was actually targeted at DJ’s. It was a beast.

And the icing on the cake was the extra slide out screen. I knew this was gimmicky, and didn’t actually want it, but the model without it was out of stock. It slid out of the cover on the side, so as to be next to the main monitor, but it was kind of crappy. The resolution wasn’t as good and it was dimmer, so it just didn’t look right. It was kind of embarrassing and contributed to the cover having to be just that much thicker.

Even the power brick was huge.

Yeah, one of those I didn’t really think things through moments. It was a great conversation starter though, if you didn’t mind admitting to being a dork.

The Homophobic Slurs would be a great band name.

I’m using 7 pro right now and there is absolutely nothing making me think about upgrading. So I support the idea that you’re fine with a 9.

“1/12 lb more beef then a quartet pounder” would have been a great marketing slogan!

Well King Arthur, the flour company, is employee owned.

We’re stuck between a rock and a hard place with a bad system but there are choices we can make about how fully it controls us.

I think the combination of strong foreshortening, the unexpected extreme size differences of the eggs, and maybe the half carton many of us are less used to, makes this the eggbox version of one of those ‘mystery houses’ where things are warped in sone strange way that it fools you into thinking things roll uphill and such.

pencil would probably work

For a second I thought you had some kind of crazy triangular egg carton until I realized it was just foreshortening.

cheers

By all means. But chain restaraunts are owned by the corpos. If you want to take power from the corpos you need to stop giving them your money.

And we do it with the nukrawave.

They only get mealy if your refrigerate them. They shouldn’t normally be slimy either. Juicy, yes, if properly ripe, but that’s not the same as slimy.

[Actually the seeds do have kind of a slippery coating, that I could see calling slimy.]

I disagree. They disavowed their human status the moment they did that.
