Is there any connection between this startup and the government? I won’t support a company that supports the Israeli government, financially or otherwise. But if it’s just a startup that happens to be run by Israeli people, can someone explain why that should affect anything? I don’t support the US government but I would still support American startups

Yeah that’s the point. The screwdriver kept it open (the “safe” configuration) and when the screwdriver was removed it closed (killing everyone)

Nichijou and High Maintenance are two that come to mind. Sort of opposite ends of the spectrum, but both are slice of life shows that are much more about vibes than plot.

Also if you like Home Movies then Dr Katz is a must

The type of guy to say “clanka” with a hard r

Literally as we speak I’m waiting to hear back from QA about a production fix we rushed out at 4:50pm on a Friday. Surely this won’t go terribly

Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny It has a 53% on RT which isn’t terrible but it bombed at the box office which it absolutely didn’t deserve

I don’t use a case, pretty much for exactly the same reasons mentioned in the old collegehumor video https://youtu.be/q4yIWg_LElc I gave up using a case several years ago and still have never had an issue

I use a nice handmade wooden desk every day. No idea how old it is but my mom bought it at an antique store in the 70’s, so it could be 80+ years old. And it’s still in fantastic shape!

Edit: I heard back from my mom and she said it’s (supposedly) from the late nineteenth century, so it’s way older than I thought!

That’s not true, you can be legally deaf and still be able to hear (a bit), just like you can be legally blind and still be able to see (a bit)

This is a Demetri Martin joke

This post reads like someone took a bunch of Adderall and went through Wikipedia for hours but didn’t actually understand anything they read. Drink some water and get some sleep, bud.

I’ll save you a click. The story has pretty much nothing to do with the “coding whiz”, just a boring recollection of a guy’s occasional work on a ship. The only reference to the coding whiz’s inappropriate insult was

at work drinks he loudly asked the boss if he was still having an affair with a colleague – in front of the entire office and the boss’s wife, who had come in for the occasion.

I think my personal favorite is Omnium Gatherum, but it has some ups and downs. Nonagon Infinity is pretty much flawless from top to bottom (and back to top)

I primarily use DDG, but the vast majority of people I talk to (including other tech savvy people) use Google. I feel like “search” is too generic (search where?), but “search the internet” is weird. And saying “Bing it” or “Duck it” or whatever just sounds overly contrarian. But if I say “Google it”, people know exactly what I mean.

So yes, I will “Google where to buy some bandaids” by searching DDG for adhesive bandages.

Well this is kind of a no brainer, but my asthma has been significantly less prevalent since I stopped smoking/vaping weed. I have exercise induced asthma, and when I smoked or vaped every day, any amount of physical activity could potentially set it off. Now, it only ever bothers me if I perform intense cardio physical activity particularly in the cold, so I just avoid that as much as I can
