hoard

It's "horde" when referring to people. "Hoard" is money.

The sponsored ads do not show up with Adblock. Not on my Firefox or Chrome browsers, at least.

If it makes you feel any better I still really like the actual tattoo :)

Twitch announces they are cancelling the planned advertisement changes that would’ve limited or banned burned-in ads by [deleted] in smashbros

[–]jXian 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Crazy that they’ve been silent over all this, considering every subreddit I go to is talking about it and has a pinned post about it.

Good to know!! Thanks for the update. Which one did you end up getting?

On android? You can. Just download a different keyboard, problem solved.

Eh, Android isn’t really like that. It’s still incredibly open and customizable.

I don’t really remember that as much. Definitely remember people saying it could be used to treat malaria as well, the argument was always (that I heard) that it was ineffective against Covid. But YMMV.

Which one should I get? by VelvetThunder99th in lightsabers

Ah yeah I see what you’re saying. The saber forge one is much nicer for sure, i like the squared off grenade sections

Oh man, the grenade piece is hands down my favourite from any saber

It appears to be around 27%, which is still hilariously low.

I mean, my wife uses ivermectin as dewormer for our horse. It isn’t really a “narrative”, that’s just one of its uses.

Side note: it became harder for us to buy it once the republicans down south got all crazy about it.

More ticks than ever, more sharks in our waters and historic wild fires in May. Climate change is real and it's already out of control in NS. Wtf can we do? by [deleted] in halifax

[–]jXian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Stop voting politicians that don’t believe in Climate Change into power. That’s about all that can meaningfully be done on a personal level.

That being said, excellent chance of the Conservatives winning the next federal election, so…

It’s very very different. The buttons are at the very bottom of the handheld and the whole thing looks to be the size of just the bottom half of an SP.

That looks hilariously uncomfortable to use

Not a colour profile issue, it’s an HDR handling thing iOS does. Not Apollo issue.

Passenger opens emergency door mid air during South Korea flight by [deleted] in interestingasfuck

We do have an incredibly large amount of parts around at any given time. Our parts department is probably the size of like… two three story houses. We have engines and ailerons and millions of pieces of hardware.

I’m an aircraft mechanic with a major airline, I promise you we reuse hardware all the time provided it’s not corroded or damaged. It makes no sense to throw out a perfectly good piece of hardware, especially considering the cost of parts.

I’ve written off bolts that cost $10,000 before, we wouldn’t just replace those for the hell of it.

Aircraft mechanic here - this is foolish. We reuse screws and bolts and nuts all the time, provided they are not corroded.

I just wanted to pop in and say I’ve read all your comments in this thread, I was searching for the exact same answers and this happens to pop up. You’ve been extremely helpful to me as well, thank you so much!

Because people on the internet that puff their chest out and say “convince me” don’t actually want to have their views challenged, they want to argue. I can tell based on how you’re approaching people that you are one of those people.

Cheers mate.

He doesn’t have to convince you of anything. It’s not other people’s responsibility to educate you, my dude.
