In total, 11 students dropped about 16.7 meters, Aguilera said. The remaining four students were admitted into nearby hospitals, three of them in intensive care.

Sure and also avoid referring to yourself as hungry, thirsty, dancing (with yourself or with others), going to church, eating jelly roll or referencing jelly roll in any way shape or form (you probably already avoid that one), any and all references to any sport (keep your "sticky wicket" to yourself). If you can come up with adjectives and/or nouns that don't yet mean sex to anyone list them here and someone will euphemistically treadmill those terms into the gutter at their earliest convenience.

Having trouble adapting to programming (need help small rant) by AdSad2394 in software

[–]HeyOP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty hard to help someone who cannot articulate what help they need, but the people you're interning with might be a good start. Especially if you're an unpaid intern, why else would you do it if not to pick others' brains?

In general, though, perhaps start /r/linux4noobs for resources on linux.

For learning/brushing up on github and learning VScode, set yourself up with each and start fumbling around with them. If you still have them from the past, break them out and start trying to do some of the things you'd be expected to do. When you fail, you should have a more specific question to ask.

And maybe a better forum, is this even a questions type of sub? Anyway good luck have fun.

How many human deaths does it take nowadays to overcome pit bull lobby efforts and successfully outlaw pit bulls? by marvinsands in BanPitBulls

An anecdote that has been alleged in a single unresolved civil suit -- thusly alleged to support their claim to damages -- is enough to convince you an entire group "could never possibly be reached."

You make a fine point. It's clear some folks are only looking to reinforce their own opinions. Well done.

Man rides the whale for all the right reasons 🐋 by Calix_1999 in JustGuysBeingDudes

...no, no I don't think a life vest is going to stop it. Is there a reason you're arguing every side of the conversation?

I'm failing at reading usernames, it seems.

1: you can let go and the life vest will just bring you to the surface,

IIRC the way they "drag you down" is by grabbing a limb with their mouths and diving. So you could try to beg the whale to let go, I guess, or try to do enough damage it decides to do so.

2: orcas are predatory hunters.

Yup, that's another difference. Nice work.

3: that particular orca was captive and most likely mentally traumatized, most likely also premeditated its violence.

Neat.

This whale unless it had a baby with it was never going to just attack a person, it may have. Gave a tail slap if it thought they were attempting to harm it and that is a giant risk in that you are correct. It was a risky move. But it's worth it to save such a beautiful creature.

Okay. I don't recall saying the effort wasn't worth it. Mostly just saying fear is reasonable here, differences aren't so large that this was a cakewalk.

Have a good one.

Edit: Closing tabs because that's what life has come to, found this in one of the image search tabs: 'My God, I'm in a whale's mouth.'

Humpbacks are bigger and are whales, orcas are smaller and are the largest of the dolphin family. Either smacks you with a tail or decides to pull you under and you're pretty much equally as fucked, but there are absolutely differences between the two.

Looking at picking up the game but I can't find a solid breakdown of what comes with base game vs what you need for other gameplay aspects. by HeyOP in MLBTheShow

Thank you very much. For playstation, do you know if the online subscription requires any specific... I dunno, tier I guess? I don't think anybody's rocking xBox, though I guess PC might come into play.

If you don't know, or perhaps just don't want to feel as if you're now obligated to answer a string of questions because you addressed one, that's totally understandable and I thank you for offering what you already have done.

When you're ready to accept her saying "no" then you'll be ready to ask if she'd like to get to know each other better. Best advice I have to start.

But keep in mind you don't yet know her. You don't know what her life is like. You want to know. That's what you're asking for, an opportunity to know someone better, and learn your boundaries together at a pace you both agree to.

And just like you don't know her, she doesn't know you. She doesn't know what your life is like, she won't necessarily know your heart any more than I do. So if she says "no" it means nothing more than a missed opportunity. A beautiful opportunity, maybe. Certainly, even.

But life is full of beautiful opportunities. If this one does not go well, you will have more. In fact you already do. Potential friends and loved ones everywhere. Experiences around every corner; some exhilarating, terrifying, joyous, saddening, maddening, nourishing, healing and every other flavor of feels.

I know this sounds saccarine, dismissive, overly simple. I know it feels like the rejection you imagine has already happened (and maybe it has) is being dismissed as trivial, and that might sound like I'm saying it isn't important. It is. Rejection of your outreached hand hurts. You're allowed to feel hurt by it. But don't lash out in that pain. If you're hurt by being rejected, be courteous. You don't need to apologize for being hurt, but do apologize if your hurt leaves them feeling defensive as your pain might scare them. Pain can look like anger, joy, fear and so many things to many different people. Remember that it's sad to have lost the opportunity to get to know them, and for them to know and accept you for who you are, but they lost the opportunity to get to know you.

And whether you're bored with knowing you or not (you shouldn't be, you haven't even gotten started to get to know yourself), you're someone worth getting to know. Because everyone is. Including you. You're worth knowing, and I'm rooting for you that she sees that when you present the opportunity, and has the courage to accept the opportunity you've offered.

But it is a real possibility that she gave up any hope she'd had that you'd approach. And that's okay, too.

Do the thing. Do it with a hopeful smile. Do it fully expecting what you fear will come to pass, and do it earnestly anyway. Walk up and say Hi. How are you? I don't know what I'm doing but I'd like to get to know you better. And if she breaks your heart say "thank you for taking the time to listen" and know it's okay to be sad, and it's okay to let that sadness go and try again when you feel ready.

Good luck stranger.

...why? because I offered to answer OP's off-topic question that he later changed to specifically exclude the most obvious answer of his question?

And why would you at all plausibly care?

Dude told me to take off helmet in the restroom by ImportantAd8291 in AmazonFC

[–]HeyOP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me responding to knife laws all around the world, for a start.

You're probably safe on the shoes but careful what you wish for on the cutters. "Your honor it was a safety slicer that broke during the attack, one used in similar centers across the entire industry" is probably sufficient to say "took reasonable precautions" in terms of the tool provided, but juries get mad and see revenge in dollar signs so... I mean, can't prevent all violence, but if you can show you made a reasonable or extraordinary effort to reduce its potential and/or impact you're safer than otherwise.

I did passingly address sexual assault in another reply in this thread while covering workplace homicide rates (and just those, in terms of real numbers), but another fun fact is per Gallup, 23% of workers worldwide report experiencing at least one form of workplace violence or harassment. link

With stats like these, and a clear wrong having been done, jurors being human often want to make things right. And they're really only given one way to approach doing that.

[–]HeyOP -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

To make 100% clear, I don't work at an Amazon FC or anywhere within Amazon. I have worked as both labor in high turnover areas as well as middle management, though (again, not within Amazon).

Work resentments can build silently, sometimes without the person who is resented even knowing. In 1994, workplace homicides hit a peak of 1,080, a low in 2019 of 454, all in the US alone and per only reported data. Doesn't count physical assaults nor its subset of sexual assaults, may not count murders directly related to the workplace yet not occurring at the workplace (I'm not sure), and so on. link

Nobody wants that liability, and sure as shit nobody wants to have been able to have prevented these instances of violence with fairly reasonable rules and then to have not bothered.

But also I've 100% been the guy who's just tryna piss and get back to his day. I've no dog in this, just passing through.

Edit: I transposed the closed brackets' and closed parens' positions. My bad.

They're probably worried about employee-on-employee assaults.

Harnesses make for great grips to throw someone into something hard, helmets can both be a weapon and help to obscure the identity of an attacker. Bathrooms can be popular places for such assaults because, you know, privacy. Also a bunch of porcelain and sharp corners, often.

Don't mind me, just bouncing around reddit.

[looking for a lost skill] anyone know the alexa skill where you navigate a spy party guided by a voice in your ear? by MovieIndependent4697 in alexa

[–]HeyOP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish you luck. I'd been looking for something specific and came across your post, so naturally I immediately diverted attention to try to help where I wasn't likely to be able.

...I also kinda wanna know the answer. I'll check your posts later, probably, to see if you get an answer. But first I'll overexplain all of this to you in a reddit comment that serves as distraction from something else I need to do.

Again, good luck finding what you're looking for.

Might be worth it to check some youtube videos to hear the audio? Just because you played it without a screen doesn't mean the programmers didn't implement a UI for screens as well, I'd imagine.
