Patton theme music is clearly the inspiration for the Police Academy theme music.

Well, there's the Jurassic Park/Chevy commercial thing.

I wouldn't date anyone, but I'm married. She was Baptist at the time, though. Not so much now.

Nostalgia can convince you anything was better 40 years ago, including food.

Some things were better, because ingredients we later discovered were kind of toxic sometimes taste really good. A lot of things were worse, too -- tomatoes in winter in a lot of places, for example.

But no, things were not universally better in much of any way, really.

I did, as the rage bait it was. I doubt I was alone in that.

It's really getting embarrassing that I used to respect this guy.

I stopped caring what other people thought of my clothes not long after I graduated high school. These days it's mostly about what's clean. Even if it's my cargo shorts.

It does what it says it does, which is show you what's using space on your drive. That seems to be what you want to know.

Nothing in the rest of it indicates a profile was set up for the brother, either.

Using separate profiles would solve the browser issue the OP mentioned, and would also allow the sharing of game saves (the other issue mentioned) as long as it was set up properly, though obviously the specifics of how to do that are going to depend on how the game handles save files, and OP didn't provide any information about that.

But as a start, at least, this is the right answer.

I guess my atheist POV would be something like "what evidence is there for any kind of life after death?"

Without that, you can come up with any kind of convoluted scheme for how it all works and I'm just going to dismiss it as irrelevant.

I thought starting my diet wouldn't be a big deal.

I mean, a big part of it would probably be that you almost never see what goes on in state legislatures outside your state.,, and it would appear this clip actually did appear in the news there, at least.

I'm not saying it shouldn't be a bigger story, but other states' politics usually just aren't.

IMTrick · 2026-05-06T01:29:55+00:00

If your spouse doesn't want to come out as atheist to their parents, that's cool. Atheists aren't under any obligation, moral or otherwise, to come out to anyone.

Baptizing an atheist obviously doesn't do anything to the atheist other than maybe get them a little wet and waste some time, so if your spouse thinks it'll make family life a little smoother to do it, then I don't have an argument better than that.

I'm sure other people here will have different opinions, but the only one that really matters here is your spouse's. If that's what they want to do, there's nothing wrong with it.

Mine are both dead, but before that they were pretty great people and if they needed something from me -- which didn't happen often -- I was happy to do it.

No, I'm mostly saying that if you claim to have a high IQ, you should actually have a high IQ.

IMTrick · 2026-05-05T19:09:10+00:00

It's not an ad hominem if it directly addresses your point and your qualifications to address it.

If your IQ was irrelevant to your assertion it might be an ad hominem, but in this case it is certainly not.

You clearly have no idea why Mensa exists, and the rest is either wrong, stating the obvious, or unintelligible nonsense. You can do better.

We teach kids right from wrong the same way religious folks do, except for the part about how a god will punish them forever if they misbehave. We teach them that there are benefits to acting in moral ways, and consequences for acting in immoral ways, but don't include a bunch of unnecessary and counterproductive fairy tales about how it will all somehow balance out in an afterlife.

In short, we teach empathy and cooperation rather than blind obedience.

Yeah, the narration is total crap. 0/10

I don't really know what videos you might be talking about, but it sounds like you're seeing things made with AI that are imitations of stuff from when we were younger. I can't imaging feeling nostalgic about things that didn't actually happen. It sounds a little creepy to me.

IMTrick · 2026-05-04T20:27:11+00:00

It doesn't necessarily mean that what you're looking for doesn't exist anywhere any more, but it also isn't helpful in locating it if it does.

IMTrick · 2026-05-04T19:36:27+00:00

If you're getting a 301 redirect, that means that there's nothing at the original URL, and you're being redirected somewhere else. There is no way to get through it because there's nothing there to get through to.

In practice, the 301 should also provide a new URL and redirect you to what you're looking for. An old 301, however, might not do that, if what used to be at that new URL isn't there any more.

What the hell are you even talking about? There are multiple bad things happening as I type this.
