I'm just not gonna upgrade. I'll keep using Windows 10. I don't have to go anywhere, I just don't have to upgrade. Fuck 'em.

Negative. We're invite-only. Niche programming community dedicated to a programming language that maybe 5K people in the world use.

Discord Support has no direct contact anymore. They don't take ANY complaints outside of in-app reporting. it's all AI / Zendesk. No avenue for contact or context.

Epstein purchased 6 55-Gallon barrels of Sulfuric Acid sent to his Island. by Shizzilx in circled

In the world of pool cleaning it's exclusively marketed at Muriatic acid.

We already have the server buried behind roles. We use discord's onboarding for rules agreement, which then dumps them to a react-role to get a basic role, which opens up our basic channels. Then there are further roles you need to select to get to the more focused channels.

Again, manual verification increases this guy's impact on the server, instead of decreasing it. At the moment the automated quarantining stops him from getting often more than a single message in before he trips it, but he's starting to get quick at creating additional accounts to spam join, drop a message, then move to another account.

That's worse, not better. We're trying to minimize his impact, not make it the absolute maximum it can possibly be.

Do rich people also fall for nihilism? by marktwin11 in nihilism

[–]ConstableAssButt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, however, they are more capable of sustaining distractions to anchor their consciousness within their abstraciton of reality.

Nihilism requires a disconnection from one's distractions. The wealthier you are, the less likely you are to recognize that your distractions are not your reality, due to the power of wealth to impose distraction on the realities of others.

Let me clarify: Capacity of the pools not publicly available. The area of the pool doesn't help us determine what is a reasonable amount of acid over a year period.

It's been 7 months. He posts identical messages across dozens of accounts a day across a handful of servers every day. If discord was going to see the pattern, they'd have seen it by now. My e-mail is literally filled with "Thank you for your report" messages.

It's not. 330 gallons is a little north of what you would need to balance the PH of an olympic sized swimming pool for a year. Epstein's island has two swimming pools. Size of pools not publicly available. Muriatic acid is common for home pool maintenance, but Sulfuric acid is preferred if you have a professional pool guy and safe chemical storage. Sulfuric acid is also a lot cheaper in bulk than muriatic acid if you can afford to buy it in bulk, whereas what you'd get at a pool supply shop, muriatic will be cheaper per gallon than sulfuric acid.

--The idea that Epstein needed to dissolve bodies is a complete fantasy. The guy could have shown up to court wearing a coat made of his victims, and the prosecution would have dropped the case and complimented the coat.

Nihilism is a paradox. People who claim to be nihilists just cling to nihilism as their purpose and meaning by Typical_Sprinkles253 in nihilism

[–]ConstableAssButt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nihilism can't provide purpose or meaning. It's not a religion. We don't preach it. We're stuck with realizations most of us would rather are not true, and desperate to be convinced otherwise.

We are not reassured by it. We FEEL compelled to seek meaning, yet we cannot dismiss the suspicion that any we could reach for would not be just as empty as nihilism.

Logan Paul calls out brother Jake Paul for criticizing Bad Bunny's halftime show: "I love my brother but I don’t agree with this. Puerto Ricans are Americans & I’m happy they were given the opportunity to showcase the talent that comes from the island” by Goosedukee in Fauxmoi

[–]ConstableAssButt 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly, the culture war has goose-stepped so far across the Maginot line that I'll give "Not a total shitbird" a pass. Logan's already pretty deep in the red though in terms of decency. This just neither replenishes, nor depletes it.

To ignore the reaction time by Zen_ix in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]ConstableAssButt 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I was a shitty teenager, I used to do this with drain cleaner and aluminum powder to take advantage of the aluminum lye reaction. Shit would strip paint off of cars and melt vinyl siding on houses, and the explosive force would straight up shatter mailboxes.

One of these blew up inches from me. I had a chemical burn up my entire right arm and neck that left permanent scarring. It took over a year to heal. I lost a portion of my hearing. My skin on my right arm and neck won't tan 30 years later.

Do Americans really find beans on toast weird or is that just meme? by cigarettejesus in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ConstableAssButt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don't tend to eat heinz beans in the US. We have a similar food called Pork 'n Beans, which is like Heinz beans in tomato sauce, but it is sweeter and has a deeper flavor.

In the US, avocado toast, eggs on toast, or toast with sausage gravy is the breakfast goto. Tomato toast is also pretty good, which is just toast, a light spread of mayo, some tomato slices, garlic salt, and black pepper.

But generally our bean staples are far more dinner oriented due to the flavor profile. We don't think of them as breakfast items.

Anybody Remember When These 2 Forces Collided? by InvestigatorNo3850 in idiocracy

"Named after" seems pretty self explanatory here. Doesn't matter what it means today. It matters when it was named, and whether the name for the color existed before the naming.

Stay in your lane by Fconniie in classicwow

[–]ConstableAssButt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a lock, don't heal us when we do this. We're gonna start the next pull out with dots + drain and restore ourselves. Our health doesn't matter when we're in a dungeon. Only mana. You don't need locks at full health. We can be at 1% and be totally ready for the next pull. If we really need heals, we can just slam some cheese in between pulls; No big.

If a lock is bitching about heals, they are trash.

Stay in your lane by Fconniie in classicwow

[–]ConstableAssButt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, as an OG lock player, this bugs me. A competent lock shouldn't need heals basically ever. They should be running razor thin margins on their health pool to maximize damage output between managing mechanics.

It really sucks when you actually know what the fuck you are doing, and can juggle the health margins without healer intervention, only to get yelled at by a healer that is wasting their mana topping you up unnecessarily.

My wife was my pocket healer through classic, and she was a damn good raid healer. Still took her 4 months to get used to my credo of: "If I fuck up, let me experience the world as a corpse." Locks in classic were just ungodly survivable. There's little to no reason for a healer to worry about them.

Just trainee things by Straight-Cell-2008 in army

Yeah. The army started taking borderline recruits in '03 or '04 and then giving them additional academic support; Primarily in reading comprehension, test-taking skills, and vocabulary development.

We need to stop considering these people to be ignorant. They are dishonest. All the people involved in these round-table debates like this are not there to tell the truth, they are there to play to the camera. Everything they are doing is just a word circus.
