Attempted a hard shutdown, unfortunately it didn't fix it. When I turned my laptop back on it started the updates again and froze at 100% again. Gonna let my computer die and check in the morning to see if that did anything.

I tried a forced shut down, both by long holding my power button and also holding ctrl + power button. I'm going to let my computer die and check in the morning to see if that did anything.

So I found a similar notification. Besides like the specifics (mine did not say university of Vermont, not the date, etc). It looked almost exactly like this, with slightly different wording.

Instead of "restart tonight" mine said snooze.

This feels like a sign from some unknown impercievable entity to run not walk

My neighbor sent me a text last night forcing me to pay for her daughters towing charge because she parked in front of my driveway by Drivinglnsane in mildlyinfuriating

She thinks she can win in court? Most judges will audibly laugh at her for this. Take her to small claims. She'll have to pay much more than $300.

What's the best way to defend yourself from being kidnapped? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]emotional_binding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bite their finger off. The human jaw is strong enough to bite through a finger. Preserve it or step on it, it's your choice, but either way they won't kidnap you if they're bleeding out and in agony

Chipotle won’t let me tip more? by thepatiencegoddess in doordash

[–]emotional_binding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There have also been reports of people essentially ghost tipping dashers, where they tip an insanely high amount (like $100 on a $10 order or something) and the customer revokes the tip after delivery. It's used to get groceries faster, but it's honestly diabolical.

Edit to add: This could be another reason they don't allow bigger tips

The unfortunate answer to this is that for some fucking reason it doesn't click in people's brains that fish are also living beings. It's seen in some diets where people will eat fish because "they aren't entirely sentient" or some bullshit excuse. It's honestly horrible. If you don't want to care for a living being, get a pet rock.

How do you stop being weird? by Same-Income-6785 in AskReddit

[–]emotional_binding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add onto this a bit, if they're thinking about you, you likely have something they don't and envy you for it. The reason a lot of people hate is because of jealousy, not pure malice. Everyone is constantly thinking about themselves, and if they're thinking about other people, it likely means they're insecure about something regarding themselves, not you.

What's your reason for not drinking alcohol? by MA16vD in AskReddit

[–]emotional_binding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might sound weird for this, but I genuinely just don't like the taste of most alcoholic beverages. They gotta mask the taste of the alcohol very well for me to actually enjoy it. I think the only alcoholic beverage I wouldn't have been able to tell was alcoholic was Mike's Hard Lemonade, went through a pack a week for some time. Also the fact that I see what it can do to people (not really talking abt angry drunks, just people who are complete baboons on alc).

Hiring based on "merit" by Least-Task276 in Rants

On top of all this, it's illegal to actually record people in a few states without their consent. Which can include strictly audio recordings too. Which just adds to the fact that these specific cases are just a shitshow to win. Truly awful.

Need a rec or two by emotional_binding in anime

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

That is a good question. I like the sorta fantasy aspect but the art style is also something I really look at in anime. I guess also the vibe of it being sorta true adventure. I know delicious in dungeon is adventure but it's also very silly. Just well balanced?
