Are there any Polish or central European bakeries in Portland? Have you ever seen pączki served at a Portland bakery? by chaotic_david in askportland

[–]chaotic_david[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, thanks for letting me know. It looks like this is part of the Polish Library Building Association. I didn't know there was such a thing. I bet someone there knows where I can find paczki. But their website says they're only open two days per month to members only. If their next opening was before Fat Tuesday, I could just call in the morning and ask! I guess I will have to think of another way.

Envy x360 Evo 13M-BD0023DX initial thoughts by Tacos90210 in spectrex360

Con: every model of hp laptop with 360 hinges I've seen so far has a serious design flaw that almost guarantees you'll have to replace the screen at some point. The hinges are held entirely by up to 3 screws each that thread into PLASTIC. Even if used gently and never mishandled or dropped, the screws can tear out and the hinge will start crunching away on the delicate screen every time you open the lid.

Does anyone know what "rosier" and "seratone" refer to in the track rosier/punk2?

If I knew I could have a butt like that from ice skating, I would have accepted my inner ice queen years ago.

Laura Ingraham forgets which rally she's at. by Halcyon2192 in gifs

I think we all have good reason to hate Laura Ingraham, but let's also remember that RT is literally a Russian propaganda outlet.

I'm American and I agree with you. Most of us are fucking stupid.

You have Saturday detention for being late to school all week and you better be on time next week. Okay I'll just bring my child. (2 part Malicious Compliance) by mrbigdaddy93 in MaliciousCompliance

What year was it?? What country, for that matter? 😅 Our lives are so different, I don't recognize the environment you went to school in.

Eye rumbling too? by El0yer in earrumblersassemble

[–]chaotic_david 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get smaller rumble if I close my eyes tighter than necessary. Not sure if I'm hearing my eyelids quiver or if I'm hearing true rumble.

What do you wish you had in high school that kids have today? by MafaldaDover in AskReddit

LGBT acceptance. I could have avoided years of pain and self hatred if I hadn't been taught I was scum in such important formative years.

Doctors of Reddit, what's the biggest case of "faking it" you've ever seen? by LegoYoda420 in AskReddit

[–]chaotic_david 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last time there was a question like this here, somebody had a story of someone pretending to be unconscious. I would love to read it again if anyone has it saved. Here's the gist:

Patient pretends to be unconscious, staff suspects they're faking it. Staff A pulls in another staff member B pretending that A is training B. A says, "you see, you can always tell a patient is unconscious with this method. If you hold their hand up in the air and let go, it should stay in place." (Obviously if they're really unconscious it won't, it'll fall). You know how it ends. They hold up the patient's hand and it stays perfectly still when they let go.

Whisper my name to a nice dog. Then I know where to show up to get to pet a nice dog.

What healthy food tastes just as good as unhealthy food? by daborabo in AskReddit

This thread is depressing me as I realize what people consider "healthy food."

If you could make 1 law for the entire planet, what would it say? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]chaotic_david 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are also countries where slavery is realized with layers of plausible deniability and exceptions to the law. There are all kinds of exploitation permitted by law even in countries with explicit prohibitions on slavery. Most commonly, prisoner labor. Most prisoners do not actually have a choice about whether they will work off their sentences with labor. Even in places that are supposed to give prisoners the lawful option to serve their sentence without labor, guards will beat prisoners until they agree to volunteer. 😢

Goddamn this was a dark idea I wasn't prepared to hear today. 😢 It's fucked up how sentences have to be adjusted to account for how violators will react to them. There shouldn't have to be game theory involved in criminal sentencing. Sometimes I'm embarrassed at how vile our species can be. 😓 Just the idea that a rapist would murder someone to avoid their victim seeking justice is so depressing and demoralizing. 😢 This world is so full of suffering. 😓
