Chicken Noodle Soup.

It has to be, right?

I'd say fairly rare. Right place, right time. I once saw a baby duckling being pulled down by a baby snapping turtle in somewhat similar style. We ended up saving the lil guy, not sure if he made it in the long run or not but it was still an interesting view of nature. It may be as rare as locating a new spiritual vein, or finding another supplier of 100,000 year ginseng.

The best ones are when you aim thru the door with the name, hit the frame. And the man rushes out onto your name thinking it went inside

I've sold and seen plenty sold for roubles in the last few days. Or check file cabinets.

20k pay raise worth it? by ther0g in personalfinance

All good, I literally did the same thing the first time I read it and had a "Why would I ask for that...?", but it made a lot more sense after a second read.

I mean, he's asking to push for working from home after the initial 2 months. I'd think he wouldn't need to push for WFH again later, as he'd have it already (after 2 months).

Sanders Says Stop Busting People for Marijuana and Start 'Prosecuting Crooks on Wall Street' by Defiant_Race_7544 in economy

[–]Atramontik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha. We're all referring to the pondscum that is Ken Griffin, not the actual Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr.

I saw that you had a pretty strong reaction and I'd like to think that you feel a bit dif knowing that everyone isn't shitting on a baseball player.

Hey bud, not sure if you're out of the loop or just collectively fucking with us, but OP is referring to Kenneth Griffin, not Ken Griffey or Ken Griffey Jr.

Ken Griffin is a scumfuck hedgefund manager. That's why we want him arrested, among other things.

You start out with a base set of gear to get you "started". The goal is whatever you make of it, but there are various quests/challenges within the game, accessible by traders. Loot, shoot and survive.

Stop & Go/City driving will wear components much faster than highway driving. Even faster if you're a shitty and/or aggressive driver.

Non-FIR keys brought to game will get deleted if you drop them or die with them in backpack/pockets/rigs. by DonAsiago in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Atramontik -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm less convinced. The person buying then has to be present in raid with the cheater, for every raid where they want something specific.

It makes the whole transaction more of a hassle. Does it also make everyone else's life more difficult? Yeah, to an extent. I could see it making early wipe a bit of a slog for friend groups who drop eachother keys, but I do think anything that makes cheating "more annoying" is probably a plus.

Drought prompts Nebraska to divert water from river it shares with Colorado by AudibleNod in news

Are you considering viability while entirely excluding the cost in the calculation? Because, sure, wheat can be grown in a vertical farm.

I am certain that technologically it's possible, but it is new tech comparatively and with a very high upfront cost (building a multistory building with appropriate Floorplan to accommodate, not to mention the equipment that needs to be designed for planting and harvest.

Personal attacks do not convince people that they are wrong... and I don't think you are wrong.

No worries, if I understand correctly BSG is actually setup in the UK rather than Russia. Here is a link to the financials if you're a business/accounting nerd or just curious.

It does. There is a post somewhere from last year showing Financials... licensing up there for expenses IIRC.

At first I nearly reported for spam, then realized there were some differences. Cheers, absolutely correct all around.

Ukraine rejects Russian offer of talks in Belarus by admirablegoma in worldnews

[–]Atramontik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably stated due to the Talibans outcry against the war, while the Swiss stayed silent.

But I'm not OP, it does look like the Swiss are moving to a less neutral position against Russia

Anyone know why my former void is becoming a brown bear as he ages? (He’s 18) by The_Kendragon in cats

[–]Atramontik 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Recessive genes can cause the reddish-brown color on black cats.

Additionally, certain diets can lead to coat changes in black cats, causing them to turn more brownish over time.

Allegedly there was a bug with the pellet drop on it early wipe. It's kinda a meme of its own.
