Jet fuel can’t melt refried beams

Oh for sure, and Chris Rock as the 13th apostle was amazing.

The movie is simultaneously irreverent and filled with surprising reverence and sincerity. I always appreciated Kevin Smith for that.

Grew up Catholic and love this movie to this day.

Damn, I’m the only one using Mlem?

The original intent is what my understanding was and why I don’t upvote reposts across multiple communities.

Just a few moments ago I upvoted a post that I didn’t “like” because the discourse on it was so good.

…There’s definitely stuff I still hate-downvote tho 😈

Still up to the site itself to decide what is “violating content”. This puts a chilling effect on upvoting and gets Reddit one step further from what it once was.

About fucking ready to wipe Budget rental car off the face of the earth for the bullshit they gave me about their insurance.

Learned a tough lesson from that one.

Age is also something that matters here. Are you middle-aged yet? I ended up pulling the brakes on my career to get a better work-life balance, but it ended up stunting my career trajectory a bit.

Once I had more free time and realized I wanted to earn more, I had to hustle to get back to a top-of-market position.

In short: there’s always time on the future to pivot to Option B. If there’s more value to extract where you are, milk it for all it’s worth and then exit before it goes south (as all jobs do).

I always feel like the features I’ve worked on become my coworkers or like pets. When a specific feature breaks often, I’ll think “damnit Frank! One of these days I’m going to patch that edge case once and for all!”

Then I patch Frank and he quiets down so I can focus on the next thing leadership wants.

You get to know these things and you put care into designing them (if you didn’t put care into them, you’d likely be a hack of an IT person). It’s always hard to see them go.

Sorry for your loss.

This 100%. Creative atonement doesn’t make it cruel.

EY! I’m swimming’ ova here!

I appreciate your research lol

But even with the increase in births, the country’s population fell for a third consecutive year.

The data also showed that more than 2.6 million couples filed for divorce last year, up 1.1% from 2023.

One of the people briefed on the situation, a consultant advising the United States on encryption matters, said Apple would be barred from warning its users that its most advanced encryption no longer provided full security. The person deemed it shocking that the U.K. government was demanding Apple’s help to spy on non-British users without their governments’ knowledge. A former White House security adviser confirmed the existence of the British order.

Bloody hell - I’m encouraged by this because it means that Apple’s encryption actually frustrates governments, but anyone using iCloud for storage or backups is pwned.

What does one have to do to gain this power?

I think about this all the time.

Cremia and Romani’s failure state is so sad :’(

Is this true? I thought it would be mushrooms because it’s hard to overcook them.

Likewise, shouldn’t you put garlic in before onions?

Edit: I feel like I’ve learned a lot today.

We will be a melting pot where goon and righteous will mingle in the everlasting hope of prosperity and freedom… for all.
