I get around this by setting my passwords to something easy to type like *******

Completely unrelated, does anybody know why my bank balance always goes back to 0 immediately after my paystubs are deposited?

The packets: “I want to get off Mr Bones’ wild ride”

I quit a physics phd path just under a decade ago because my experimental results were turning up negative and the uni I was at pushed me to doctor my results so we would keep getting funded. I also wonder about this

To each their own, lol. I don’t find country boring, I find it actively grating on my ears. Like, to the point that I will mute movies and put on subtitles if the soundtrack goes country. Having that as background noise sounds like my personal hell

I’m both the shorts guy and the music guy, though I do enjoy screamo. Country is my “I can’t listen to this dogshit” genre

I thought there was a rule about just adding every new plant species to brassica

I can’t remember which text it is, but it opens talking about a bunch of physicists studying stat mech then suck starting shotguns. Then it goes “and now it’s our turn to study statistical mechanics”

F.D.C. Williard finally has some competition

It’s basically chaff, lol. We’ve known chaff is an effective radar countermeasure since the 40s, and it seems like the researchers have found the lidar and optical equivalents of chaff. What really scares me is the idea of this evolving into more sophisticated deception attacks like range or velocity gate pulls. No idea how you’d do that with lidar or optically, but I’d bet money that’s a line item on a black budget somewhere

If I’m ever staring at math, I’m absolutely not processing visual information while doing so. It’s more that like, I’m staring off into space and thinking and “math on a whiteboard” just happens to be the last thing I was looking at and my face is still pointed that way

WE DONT BELIEVE IN KUTTING ANY RUNGES IN THIS HOUSE. YOURE GROUNDED UNTIL YOU PROVE OR DISPROVE THE EQUIVALENCE BETWEEN THESE TWO KNOTS!!

I saw the who would win meme format with a centrifuge on the left and I was totally expecting a stuxnet joke

Nobody will miss it :) you are one of today’s lucky 10,000. Go forth and enjoy your new word

Your post looks like a reasonably good joke about acronyms with multiple meanings, but just in case you actually don’t know, PDA is short for “public display of affection” in this context

I’ve really enjoyed how much ATS incentivizes that optimization, given that years spent on a settlement count toward the blightstorm cycle. It’s really satisfying to figure out how to max rep as quickly as possible, especially with really hard modifiers like the “no orders” one

PSA FOR ANY THIRSTY M’FERS AROUND HERE: YOU NEED TO CRANK YOUR HYDRATION AT LEAST AS MUCH AS YOU CRANK YOUR HOG. HYDRATE OR DIEDRATE M’FERS!!!

One of the slave node’s child process failed, so the master node sent a signal to terminate the child and restart the slave

There’s pretty solid reason my research group is pushing to use “head node and executor nodes” nomenclature rather than the old-school “master node and slave nodes” nomenclature, haha

Assuming you’re asking in good faith:

“Retard” used to be a largely medical term used to refer to mentally disabled people. It’s common usage in the past 10 years or so has been “bad, stupid, less than, etc”. By using the term that way, you’re passively connecting disabled people to that concept of “bad, stupid, less than, etc”. I think it’s also considered a slur lately
