Just scoured my whole bedroom for the source of an unpleasant smell. Pulled all the drawers apart. Smelled everywhere. Turns out after some considerable time searching.... it's the hat I'm wearing. 🫠

@rebeccawatson I only play games which the right calls satanic.

Greedy bosses want workers to view each other as competition instead of allies because when workers realize they’re on the same side, they turn CEO bonuses into higher worker paychecks through the power of a union.

@Richard_Littler I would assume they've already tested how many emails they should send for best results. Those campaigns are very data driven.

Nobody's talking about the rising price of extra-small condoms.

First rule of unit testing: not writing unit tests for a piece of code retroactively adds bugs into that code.

@fredbrooker@witter.cz Mostly 8.1 with a dash of 7.x and higher 8.x.

absolutely wild that people will rail against graffiti but are fine with advertisements being plastered all over everything. corporations have more rights than people

Any app or service that gives you a free trial and then doesn't ASK before it starts the paid subscription is effectively scamming you.

I have discovered the exact age limit for teaching counting in binary. (doing math with just 1, 0)

6th graders who are about 11 and 12 years old can do it-- 5th graders (age 10 or so) mostly can't. Math is still too new to them and though they've been adding two digit numbers for three years it's not ingrained enough for variation.

Anyway back to the drawing board.

@falcennial I didn't subscribe here to read about unsubscribing.

Why is it that it's nice to offer a friend emotional support, but not intellectual support?

@rednikki @doctormo Presumably the balance between financial motivation for the author, public good of reading, and cost of copyright enforcement.
