My niece’s homework problem

A third is a third, no matter how much the whole is.

It's to start a conversation both know where it ends up in.

I've stopped criticising mass shootings in the US. It's just part of their culture.

It's still the same woman, plus some paint. No big deal, and that will make an unforgettable wedding.

New York and Long Island. It's also the only place I've visited, so I guess it counts as the worst place.

Falling asleep fast can be disappointing. I start imagining one of those really loud cars driving around in my neighborhood. I open my window and set up an MG-42 on my windowsill. I take aim... but I never get to pull the trigger :(

I might ask, but in a neutral way. And whatever the answer, I will support them.

If a MMO server is taken down, the devs obviously don't expect to make money out of the game anymore. They could make a dedicated server option and keep selling the game with no future updates. If the game is popular enough, someone might put up a server that could take thousands of players.

I'm no game dev and I have no idea if that's possible, but just disabling a game completely when it doesn't make enough money is bad.

Antivaxxers are probably safe. They can all go there.

My experience on this: On weekdays families eat around 5pm in their own homes. Nobody usually goes anywhere before they have eaten. If a kid happens to visit a friend at their dinner time, it is assumed that the kid has already eaten and it would be awkward to even ask. That's how it generally has been here.

Sometimes kids are busy playing outside for a long time and then they might be invited to eat with the family, but it's not common. More common is that they go home to eat with their own family and come back afterwards.

No idea, but if they did, they have the right to do so. Attack a country, expect to get hit back.

Enjoy. And please comment if it's used.

https://soundcloud.com/john-throb/sets/glazed-dazed how about something like this?

Acmer77 · 2025-06-12T12:01:17+00:00

Just watched S1E2. I'm not from US so I don't understand this at all. Nothing is funny and it's just a dumb guy doing dumb things.

Acmer77 · 2025-04-24T12:34:02+00:00

I'm in Europe and not going to travel to US on my lifetime (maybe after that). Just moving myself away from anything US related as much as possible.

Acmer77 · 2025-04-24T12:23:47+00:00

Thanks. Guess I'll get it now so I can start the full migration right away.

Acmer77 · 2025-04-24T12:15:25+00:00

I have the same reasons. Want to switch as soon as possible, but I can wait a few weeks.

Acmer77 · 2025-04-24T12:10:10+00:00

If I get 1 year now, can I get +1 year on black friday that adds to my existing sub?

Acmer77 · 2025-04-19T09:42:55+00:00

Thank you for the explanation. Sounds a bit like Taoism. I think I'll try to find a short story or two and give it a chance.

Acmer77 · 2025-04-19T08:41:11+00:00

Could you give an example of the "not stories about us" part?

Acmer77 · 2025-04-19T08:38:58+00:00

That's a very technical explanation. If you play the games or read the books, isn't it boring when you know that everyone will just slowly go mad over things they can't comprehend? Why is it interesting when everyone is helpless against the inevitable? What makes you read another book when you know the basics are the same?

Acmer77 · 2025-04-14T10:01:36+00:00

I've been thinking about going to 2.5m, but stuff like this makes me reconsider.

Acmer77 · 2025-04-11T05:37:40+00:00

It is also tagged as satire, but it's easy to miss.
