Yeah the crux of the issue here is whether or not they’re actually a relative, and if I’m expecting them.

Show up unexpected at 2am? I’m probably not opening the door for safety reasons. If it’s expected company but they’re just late, I’ll let them in.

I think they’re saying this:

Family meals would comprise of three restaurants worth of people since they’re all immortal

Separately, you can never retire since you will never hit retirement age

Not going to lie to you, this is exactly what i did :)

It’s from God emperor of dune, i think it’s the fourth book in the series by publication, but not chronologically.

I guess this might be a spoiler if they eventually make it a movie, but basically, the son of Paul merges himself with a sand worm and becomes effectively immortal. It’s both interesting and bizarre.

There’s a lot more to it than that but i don’t want to ruin the story for anyone

Oh man, haven’t seen Little donny disease in a long time. Hope he gets the help he needs to live a normal life

That’s interesting, guess i wasn’t tracking that closely enough. Thank you!

Ah, wasn’t aware, thanks!

I thought it was India and South Africa, not Iran and Saudi Arabia

Someone in the comments claims to have found the school handbook, and it does explicitly say misuse of AI is forbidden

But without the caption, how would i know to wait until the end of a 5 second video? Who has that kind of time?

I don’t think breakfast needs to be that immediate? The dish prepared here almost certainly took a minimum of 30, if not 45+ minutes to make, and there’s no indication it was immediately after waking. Breakfast can be a bit later.

I did a quick Google search, and I’m guessing miso is the ulcer treatment misoprostol that you shouldn’t take during pregnancy. A d and c is a dilation and cutterage, an invasive surgical procedure that removes something from the uterus. In this instance the something was a nonviable pregnancy that went awry from possibly the medication (or other factors).

Admittedly i was also confused about miso, and immediately thought soup? I was extremely incorrect

I appreciate your reply and question. I think it comes across rude because the correction wasn’t really necessary to understand the context of what was said, and it’s even less of a correction and more of a personal preference. It doesn’t add much to the conversation, which makes it seem more like grammatical pedantry. The fact that it wasn’t entirely correct made it seem even more out of place.

For the record, I’m not accusing you of being rude, just identifying how the comment came across. I’m not assuming intent with your original comment and apologize if it seemed like I had.

I actually don’t think this is correct. Whom is used when the unknown person is the object being impacted (to whom did you sell your car). In this sentence, “who” is actually referring to a person performing the action (the sentences “who questioned him?” And “where are those who questioned him?” Would use who, not whom. You wouldn’t say “whom questioned him,” but whom could be used to replace “him,” such as “he questioned whom?”).

As I alluded to above, you can usually see if it’s who or whom by changing it to he/she (who) or him/her (whom). You may need to adjust the sentence slightly, but it will normally work. Above you need to remove the “where are those” portion to find the answer.

So I believe that your correction came across a bit rude, and I’m fairly certain it is also wrong.

To be fair, about that women’s world cup team, if i recall correctly it was a PR move to play an exhibition match with those kids and they were not trying very hard to win. I don’t think they would truly lose to U-15 if it was, for example, a tournament.

Your overall point has merit but i think that specific example gets overused a bit.

One of the finer points of something new is getting in at the right time. I have to imagine if you’re a streamer and you force yourself to stay on your old game “for the fans,” you could miss out on the shiny new thing that people care about. This could literally cost them money that they need for rent. I am confident that many streamers are not highly paid and depend on this income.

Don’t forget, fans are fickle, corporations are fickle, everyone is fickle. I don’t think any employee of a company should be loyal to that company if it is to their own detriment as that company will let their employees go if it needs to (better companies try harder, worse companies make worse decisions).

I don’t see why a streamer should treat their career differently. Do what you think is best for you. Streamers don’t owe me, the fan, and it doesn’t do me any good for them to force themselves to play a game they’re less interested in just to appease me.

Compared to the other Uber wealthy, he at least seems to have some sort of a code of ethics from what i can see, which is obviously limited. He’s still in it to make money (obviously), but his actions seem to suggest that he won’t go to the extreme of hurting everyone else just for money.

I started liking Mark more when he opened cost plus drugs. It’s a pretty decent endeavor to try to reduce pharmaceutical costs for the consumer

Half of all marriages, which include people who have been married multiple times. For example, if you have 5 married couples, 4 are on their first marriage and the last couple is on their 6th marriage, then on average 50% of the marriages in this scenario failed. But it doesn’t apply to everyone in the same way. Some people even remarry the same person.

The median is much lower.

That’s not an analogy at all, as it’s completely different from what i said earlier. I’m not trying to prove that Earth is moving amazingly fast, I’m trying to show how the headline seems grander than it is.

I also don’t think a lot of people realize quite how fast the Earth is moving through space. Saying a million miles an hour really does seem impressive if you don’t have that information. But as we speak, we are literally hurtling through space at half that pace.

If we weren’t orbiting the sun we would end up orbiting something else at a different speed.

This would be similar to saying that San Bernardino county in California is 20000 sq mi, or about 50k km squared. It’s just a number without context. But if i told you it’s a county that is it was bigger than both the country of Switzerland and US State of West Virginia, that’s added context for size comparison. The way that California divides its county structure does not invalidate this comparison, and is irrelevant.

I’m not really sure what your intent or point is here.
