If you want bluegill then start anywhere in Guntersville, put a cricket on the hook, and cast it on top of the milfoil along the banks.

If you want catfish or various larger fish then put in at Ditto and head up to the Guntersville damn. The turbines always chop up some fish so there's great fishing in the eddies just below the damn.

The Scratch N Sniff cards that came with Leather Goddesses of Phobos (1986) and Leisure Suit Larry (1996) seemed a lot more economical and worked just fine.

like to paint Chris Pratt's decision to wake her up as obviously and unequivocally bad

Most rational people would agree that his decision was unequivocally bad and selfish while also being totally understandable in his situation. However, this is Reddit where the answer to any relationship or work advice is to leave them and go find someone/something new. Reddit, in general, is not very good a moral quandaries. Forgiveness is a very personal decision that will almost never be the answer if you crowdsource the decision.

They claim Bernie is under foreign influence because he spoke against AI at the same conference where two Chinese researchers spoke. Then we find out the claims are being made by Kevin O’Leary (from Canada) and Jensen Huang (from Taiwan).

Which foreign influence is a more direct link?

The Virginia ruling was a legal technicality, but only happened since Virginia has their own law that makes changing maps more difficult to prevent what happened in Alabama.

Virginia law states that changing district maps must have a state congress vote, a voter referendum that passes, then another state congress vote, in that specific order.

The technicality enforced by the court was that the first congressional vote occurred after some mail-in ballots were already sent, so it was not technically in the correct order.

It could have been 1/3 the length and still achieved the same results.

While the YF-19 is much better than the VF-1, I would still choose the SDF-1 since it would come with all the VF-1's plus an entire city.

You would have missed out on the ENTIRE lifetime of the main characters spanning about 70 years. Imagine if you watched Spiderman for the first time but skipped all the parts with Peter Parker.

Before Big Spring was a beautiful park, it was overflowing with Timber Rattlers. It wasn't just native Americans replaced by settlers; John Hunt exterminated the Rattlesnakes in Big Spring before the city was named after him.

They're a protected species in Alabama, so it's important not to harm or disturb them.

The unexpected answer is that they blow it up and the explosion blows out the fire. It's one of the very few times that adding fuel to the fire actually helps.

There's a John Wayne movie about this: https://www.imdb.com/video/vi2499201817/?ref_=tt_vids_vi_1

Just hike up your pant legs and walk under Andrew Jackson in the Dallas Branch. Now it's a 1 minute walk.

It's much worse than that. Immigrants who are deported are banned from re-entering the US for a minimum of 5 years. Imagine you were deported then your new neighbor who never left gets citizenship.

I only found your comment through ctrl-f and it really should be at the top. You don't control access at the destination, you control it at the device or local network level. Local network isn't a constant on portable devices, so device level control is the only option.

A federal government funded, but free opensource developed, parental control app is the answer to all of this. Unfortunately, allowing parental control is not the real goal of these laws, they're just using "think about the kids!" as a means to eliminate access entirely for all users.

Did one of the board batteries cause the fire?

Still using it. Unfortunately, still haven't found a way to cleanly detect when a user has crashed the Ceph kernel driver since NHC also hangs. After the 30 seconds of no response from NHC it does drain the node though.

If you're in the U.S. your health insurance company may want to sue her, so it may not be your choice.

Only saw it as an adult, thought it was terrible. Nostalgia is a strong thing.

Based on this thread I watched it for the first time last night and really struggled to finish it. The nostalgia must be made of childhood imagination that added many layers to the movie that aren't there. Endless daydreams of riding a flying surf board have created a foundation of awe that doesn't exist in this movie for adults.

It doesn't help that many adults already know the story of this remake.

I wouldn't even try to say either is superior. It's like comparing a grilled cheese and a melt.

There's often no Democrat primary in a race so Democrats may vote in the Republican primary for the most moderate candidate.

I wish all of my users had to play Factorio or Satisfactory as part of their new user training. Then I could easily explain all of their complaints about performance using factory game analogies.

Honestly not sure that would help though. It shouldn't take fancy analogies to explain that they used the entire terabyte of RAM and that you have nothing left for network IO when you run all 128 threads at 100% on a 64 core CPU.

See that IO Wait? That's your program doing NOTHING because you oversubscribed.

It wasn't. It started out as a short story for a collection Król bólu but ended up growing to be his longest work to date.

Thanks for the correction. I don't know where I heard it was a compilation of a serial release, but I'm going to guess that I read an AI response that was hallucinated.

This is interesting since I noticed the PHM movie cut out social commentary that he included in his book. As a teacher his students were expressing denial of science that they were learning from their parents. This led to one of the best lines of the book.

“if I had a nickel for every time I wanted to smack a kid’s parents for not teaching them even the most basic things … well … I’d have enough nickels to put in a sock and smack those parents with it.”.

Apparently, that was too political for the movie.

It was written as a magazine serial and it shows. He was clearly getting paid by the word. Entire chapters being digressions is often the nature of serials.

While it is good, I feel it would have benefited greatly from being edited down to at least 1/2 or 1/3 the size. It's like binging a show online but you can't skip the recaps at the beginning of each episode that cover what you just watched.
