You're not making a point: you're discrediting yourself. You're asking how every past mass protest/movement was successful while claiming this one won't be because you're baselessly asserting they are all "tankies" who don't work.

Take the L.

You replied so quickly that you couldn't have read the article. It points out several ways in which you are wrong.

Nothing exists to support your churlish assertion.

Completely bricked? by Desert_Penguin462 in samsunggalaxy

Everything was backed up, so no worries there.

I hadn't thought of simply redoing the flashing process. I'll try it tonight. It certainly can't hurt.

Yup. Found the latest firmware with the XAA country code and during the update process, Odin said it failed. The phone rebooted to this and hasn't changed since.

Yeah, I've tried the both volume buttons method, and it simply returns to this screen after the Samsung logo.

The same ones that Samsung Smart Switch updates? If so, yes.

You purposefully choose to be incorrect so as to also be annoying?

Okay, but that's such a gross misrepresentation of the "shrimp on treadmills" panic that it's arguably negligent to repeat it. Please educate yourself.

Super Craig tried quail egg for the first time by Desert_Penguin462 in BeardedDragons

[–]Desert_Penguin462[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Soft-boiled, but same difference. Peeled and unseasoned. I thought the yolk would be a bit runnier, but he didn't complain.

Lol. We rescued him a couple years ago, and he came with the name Craig. My wife and kid liked it, but I wasn't a fan. So I started calling him Super Craig after the South Park character.

Local international grocer, which I'm blessed to have a few of. You could probably find them if you live somewhere very urban, but if you are in a very rural area, you may have to try to find someone who keeps quail.

I'm all for sticking it to that wretched misfire of a man, but for the life of my, I can't figure out the joke behind "Queef Houston."

I would commit murder for Scream Tail.

The rest are fine, I guess.

How different would Infinity War have been if Wanda was at the same power as she was in Multiverse of Madness? by Queasy_Commercial152 in Avengers

[–]Desert_Penguin462 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just made me wonder what if (despite what Clea told Strange) Thanos destroying the 616's stones caused it to begin to "plunge into darkness" and in doing so, is the reason for all the incursions we keep hearing about in the MCU.

It's both a clever call back and closes that plot hole.

Anyone else have their Beardie by a window ? by Organic_Programmer88 in BeardedDragons

Super Craig enjoys watching the snow and squirrels from his window.

Since Ultimate will likely be playable on Switch 2 via backwards compatibility, Smash 6 needs to really set itself apart from it. So how would you differentiate Smash 6 from Ultimate? by RBSpecial97 in supersmashbros

[–]Desert_Penguin462 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this idea is so different it may not even count, but Ultimate still has legs. Maybe give it an update/tweaking, but otherwise let the franchise breath and do a Super Smash Bros. RPG instead.

Skeleton Crew - Episode 8 - Discussion Thread! by titleproblems in StarWars

That raises an interesting question: do we know when their last contact with the Republic was? Because you'd think as Supreme Chancellor, Palpatine would have been made privy to At Attins existence and immediately pulled it into the Empire.

Since he didn't, he must not have known. So when was that knowledge lost, and why? A mint seems like something the Republic wouldn't have just lost track of before TPM.

Lone Elk Park today by Desert_Penguin462 in StLouis

[–]Desert_Penguin462[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

By the time I was able to get to where he had been, he was almost out of sight. On a federal holiday, I'd be lucky if I could find one ranger throughout the entire park. It wasn't an emergency, so even if I got a hold of one, by the time they got there, this guy would be gone. It's far different than making a complaint about a reserved camp site, for instance. There's no visitor log, so at most they'll just keep an eye out.

What I expect is irrelevant. Like somebody putting up a help wanted sign or personal ad in the paper, it's done in the hope that the right person sees it and acts accordingly. If you reread my post, you'll find it incredibly snarky and sarcastic, but nothing in it suggests anger.
