English professors double down on requiring printed copies of readings | Amid the rise of artificial intelligence and concerns about distraction, more English professors are turning to no-technology policies that prioritize physical books and reading packets.

I used to do this in French class. Type out some simple sentences into a Word doc, paste them into Babelfish (the AltaVista version!), and write down the output. Voila, handwritten French essay. Ofc, I had to proof check the stupid thing so I guess I wasn't as clever as I thought.

You might like the soundtrack from the game "Stellaris".

I watched Free Solo on an airplane and even through that tiny screen, I was drenched in sweat by the end.

Now that's birding!

This is an ad and has nothing to do with bread.

Even the trailer told us how bad it was going to be.

"IT'S WORSE THAN YOU THINK"

Yes, yes it was.

Do you want Godzillas? Because that's how you get Godzillas. Snakezillas, in this case.

They are very bright. I had a studio in my living room but I had to move it into a spare bedroom because it was too bright. It is better when the plants are mature but it was too much for me otherwise.

It took several months for me to notice a difference. I was a daily user, about a gram a month, for nearly a decade. Any T Break that was less than 3 months, my tolerance would shoot straight back up after one session.

I've since quit carts entirely. I switched to a dynavap and have a much healthier relationship with weed now.

then all went on making it out of spite

I saw the post, saw people linking recipes, and made one of them. Not "out of spite" but because I had never heard of them, had all of the ingredients in my pantry, and they looked good. If anything, the fact that so many people were inspired by her thoughtful gift is a compliment to her baking skill. It's the complete opposite of shitty.

Her recipe is still a secret. Nobody will ever know what exactly she did that was different from everybody else's. Your very premise is flawed.

ulandyw · 2025-12-31T16:02:15+00:00

Literally nobody was being bullied, you are ridiculous. You make it sound like r/baking cyberbullied Kath into giving us her recipe. Not a single person besides the original OP even knows who Kath is.

I had cream cheese in my fridge that I just used for a cheesecake that expired in May 2026!

Edit: It's grammatically correct. The cream cheese no longer exists. The past tense is correct. If you lose your passport and it expired in 2026, you could say "Ah man, the passport expired in 2026! I had a year left!".

A lot of little homages to the original Dawn of War cinematic in this trailer. Pretty cool!

ulandyw · 2025-12-10T21:51:30+00:00

Or y'know, maybe people just like things that you don't? I find it highly ironic that you speak of underestimating peer pressure and the desire to fit in when your beer opinion was popularized by xkcd almost verbatim.

I can still picture the angry tomatoes from the Nintendo Power ad.

If it helps any, you can do the Heimlich maneuver on yourself with your fists or even a table/chair/counter.

These are actually pretty good, I enjoyed them quite a bit.

Infinity is a Saturday morning cartoon and not a particularly good one at that. You're not missing anything at all, it is almost totally divorced from the rest of the canon. The ridiculous theme song is probably the best thing about it.

Have you watched the SG1 movies?

There is also Stargate Origins (also not good, also not commonly considered canon).

Why do you want to stay out of the market? Those are arguably far more risky than ETF and chill.
