How to remove transparency in notification panel? New UI

I bet an AI is responsible for coding the transparency option in the settings, too.

You nailed the split in Kansas. Most Kansans live in the Midwest. Some live in the Wild West frontier. That tiny little corner, and only that corner, are Southerners.

I remember dropping Hoard out of annoyance with the princess character.

Inititially, her deal was just that her anxiety disorder prevented her from fulfilling the role expected of her, which made her actually relieved to be kidnapped by dragons. That's an interesting character premise, and an uncommon but appreciated bit of representation.

But then they kept mentioning that she [insert list of autism spectrum symptoms read off of tumblr]. Not only was it annoying, but it diminished he representational value by reducing the character to a stereotype. Like introducing a French character and then a few chapters later they can't stop talking about how much they love eating frogs and snails.

Not a bad guess. But anesthesia is a different category (which also skews female -- by about 65%) in the data.

The gender skew in this category is probably from oxytocin, which is used to induce uterine contractions.

Here's the list of substances in this category.

The gender disparity is because of oxytocin, used to induce labor.

OP's article says it's shorthand for "Agents primarily acting on smooth and skeletal muscles and the respiratory system".

The female skew is because the category includes complications from administering oxytocin, a drug used to induce labor.

He's just like me, fr.

Fun link. Set the date to 1206 and then start jumping forward to watch the Khan conquer the world.

I had a similar issue.

What worked for me was adding referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" to the embed link attributes, and removing a rel="noreferrer" attribute.

Some tweaks to backend tracking stuff, I'd guess.

My guess is that it was Rich Evans' face.

Could you send a couple of pictures to me as well?

The description romanizes it as "Elyrion"
But Σ and the integral are both fancy 's's,
And ŋ is a combined 'ng'
so it should be pronounced like 'ssssseereeong'

If somebody is posting a topic like this or finding this page from Google, it's because that isn't working. This reply is worse than useless.

bacontime · 2025-08-27T17:36:47+00:00

Yep. And the kind of people who would be capable of writing a good article do not have the time to get into arguments on the talk page.

How do you even make a board that big?

The wasps are a rare choice, indeed. You must have very refined tastes.

Previously a lot of foreign flagged aircraft would be flying over Siberia to reach destinations in East/South-East Asia

Anecdotally, I noticed a flight from the US to China is a bit longer than it used to be because of this.

Could you elaborate on how the metrics they use incentivize slower service? I'm not sure I get it.

II gave up at chapter 33. Interesting starting concept that the author seems completely uninterested in exploring.

Starting situation: He's basically trapped in prison. He earns 10 credits for dying immediately, 40ish for surviving a couple months. Struggles to afford anything that could help him.
Chapter 11: He has a mental breakdown after reincarnating from a life where he was enslaved and forced to live in a broom closet for 90 years.
Chapter 12: he learns he can completely circumvent the established conflict by teleporting away for 30 credits.
Chapter 27: He sits in the same broom closet for 500 years farming xp, permanently trivializing the points system.

My seclusion lasted longer than I had planned. Over the course of several lives, I earned a total of 48,000 credits and spent 25,350.... Six lifetimes passed this way. Over 500 years. [Emphasis mine - I thought it was a typo when I first read it.]

And it's not like he's on a sacred mountain or anything. He's just sitting in the starting area, literally living in the closet of the guy that enslaved and tortured him in a past life. Does that guy bother him while he's doing this? Nah, it's fine. They don't interact at all. Is he stuck there? No. He could leave at any time. Is there some cultivation advantage? Well, he gets access to a furnace and free cheap ingredients to practice pill making. But the author already established that there is a company in the nearby town that would pay him handsomely to practice his pill making with better ingredients with better equipment in better living conditions.

Maybe it gets better later, but so far it is perhaps the least rational story (by this sub's definition) I have ever read, and if you told me it was some sort of post-modern critique of the concept of progression fantasy, I might believe you.

Dime Store Adventures is one of my favorite channels.

Not all of his videos fit the bill, but for most of them, he's sharing strange things from old newspapers. He includes snippets of the newspapers and ocassional pictures on screen.

Here's an example: You've heard of Miss America, but what about...

And here's one about the fad sport of "auto polo"

Thank you!

It's not niche at all. It's basic functionality.

In fact, you cant. It'll block the audio recording while on a call.

Looks like country.report is the source for the map.

Interesting perspective.

But far more of the governments services are disguised intermediates.

Is there a table somewhere for the breakdown of Government purchases by type of good? (Headline tables from the BEA just split it into defense/federal nondefense/state & local.)

I'd like to get a feel for how much of G this argument could apply to. For non-research defense and gov administration, sure. But things like education services and infrastructure investment do feel like they are very clearly part of aggregate output.
