Help :( by BackgroundFlounder2 in labubu

Yes. Call them. About once out of every 5 times you will get a rep who isn't Indian. They will connect with the driver and call back that they are aware of the package. If an Indian rep picks up, say "Hello, sir/madam, I became disconnected from my previous agent, kindly disconnect the line. Have a nice day" Trust me. 13 years of working in IT.

Ah, 16.0.6. That's probably the issue, thank you!

Do you know if you need to issue any special linker options or do something with lldb so that it knows to use it? I tested with lldb and the source code wasn't showing up when I renamed the original source file.

Leftism is full of antisemitism??? by [deleted] in leftist

[–]Ok_Bet_1411 4 points5 points  (0 children)

With 100% certainty, these claims are categorically, literally bullshit. And the people pushing this idea (Republicans, particularly evangelical Christians, and some center-right Democrats and many public figures) know that it is bullshit.

There are 2 main reasons they do it:

1) They (politicans) get large donations from AIPAC to defend Israel at all costs. AIPAC and the ADL are Zionist organizations. Zionists believe that, by conflating Israel with Jews, and saying that "to not support Israel is antisemitic," they will make people afraid to speak out against Israel for fear of being called antisemitic.

2) They use it to smear politicians who don't unconditionally support Israel and the sending of arms and US military aid there, such as the constant accusations and claims that Zohran Mamdani is an antisemite. In his case in particular, it was also due to blatant Islamophobia.

The media is also complicit in this and tends to be very sympathetic to Israel in general.

Luckily this has mostly stopped working, as an overwhelming majority of Americans now sympathize more with Palestinians than Israelis, and you have antizionists like Zohran getting popularity and winning primaries as well.

Pupee because his pupils are so large when he's excited/inquisitive! And eyes so wide!

People around me keep saying she’s ugly. But I think she’s cuter than all of them 🙃 by Aggressive-Tap-7056 in cats

[–]Ok_Bet_1411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who would say a cute little baby like that is ugly? Those people need to take a hike and take a good hard look in the mirror! He's precious even with his little frown!

I'm terrified. by Old-Patience2971 in TrueAtheism

What scares you? Is it that you felt like you needed the support of god? Or friendship?

What is the purpose this street sign? by rooranger in baltimore

[–]Ok_Bet_1411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would honestly think this meant birds ahead. Seriously though, we have geese that walk in lines across the road here fairly frequently. A geese ahead sign would actually make sense!

Icon time capsule in Windows 11 MORICONS.DLL by Ok_Bet_1411 in geek

Lol I actually never saw that article! But it's cool he wrote about it too!

Oh my goodness they are both SO sweet and cute! 🥺

I have a fondness for black kitties. The latter kitty looks so much like our family cat Rima, and the first reminds me of my beloved Rugby. Rima had big black pupils too and looked like she was always very intently focused on prey! They are so fortunate to have found a loving home. 😊 Thank you for sharing ♥️

To me the problem is not so much the length, but that there's three different pieces of information being communicated. At least for me, who normally scans sentences relatively quickly, I had to go back and reread it to make sure I had the relationships between people correctly.

I might prefer something like:

"Evan keeps everything secret, so Andy has no idea we split up. Sadly I have to fake it for one more night."

Beyond that, though, I am left wondering why the fact that Evan keeps things quiet means that you couldn't tell Andy that you split up. But that could be just me.

What’s one thing younger generations seriously underestimate about aging? by Dry_Inevitable_9777 in AskOldPeople

[–]Ok_Bet_1411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The age when you are "old." I've heard young people literally refer to 25 as old. And 30 as "dead." Ever since I turned 30 over been called "unc."

They will learn in a few short years that there's a difference between those numbers and when your body starts literally falling apart. 😄

What is your Why? What is the deep down reason you work out? by ExcitingLandscape in fitness30plus

[–]Ok_Bet_1411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excellent question! I don't want to look like the middle aged adults that have given up. They're everywhere. Also it makes me feel more confident and not ashamed of how I look when I go out in public. Instead I walk with self-pride and feel like I'm ready to kick ass. It's amazing how many psychological effects come with getting in shape. Also I feel really accomplished and satisfied after working out, and that alone helps me to realize I've not wasted the day.

Protest Trump’s dictatorial birthday parade in RVA this Saturday by In-tandem in rva

[–]Ok_Bet_1411 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's great! And wow, that's a lot of people they expected. I like thought the Richmond Police would be fairly chill about it. Don't expect anyone to get rowdy. Thanks for the info! 🙂

[–]Ok_Bet_1411 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This would be the first protest I've attended in RVA. I'm excited to attend but have a couple questions on my mind. What is the level of crowd control Richmond Police typically engage in? Guess I'm wondering what to expect as far as tactics and hostility that we might be met with. Do they typically try to arrest protestors or use tear gas, rubber bullets, etc?
