Why would you ask this rather than adding it to wine yourself to see what amount you found satisfying?

You said

you would probably end up degrading your own experience; getting irrelevant ads

Irrevant ads = less targeted ads. You seem to think this is a negative. I’m saying it is actually a positive.

I believe there is a trade off between grippiness and hardness. So depending what kind of surfaces you need to walk on, buying boots with soles that resist wear more may have a downside.

Getting more targeted ads is not really in your interest. That is an idea promoted by the ad people.

Creatine is very helpful for reducing the effects of sleep deprivation. I’m not sure what dose would be ideal, but I would expect it to be pretty large, like 20 grams.

I’m guessing ICE likes it, it probably makes their job easier.

All of history is one people taking over another peoples land. I’m not saying its right, but in virtually any part of the world there is a history of some invader or colonizer coming in and displacing or swallowing up the existing people, probably multiple times, down through prehistory as well.

No, but I’d consider it for a large group of states. The US dividing into 2 countries is better than some other outcomes I can imagine.

Don’t be kinkshaming.

Hear hear! Shaming Americans for their preference for unhealthy food is pretty racist.

Came here to say Dijon mustard. A jar of mustard lasts me 6 months, so a couple extra bucks for the good stuff doesn’t amount to much.

There is also a potential health difference. Lunch meat tends to be loaded with preservatives and falls into the category of “processed meat”.

There’s nothing wrong with new england maple syrup, but yes, real maple syrup not “pancake syrup” with maple flavoring.

I would preemptively confront the security officer telling telling him that woman was nuts or at least mistaken, and seek to straighten things out.

Of course that presumes I don’t have reason to think that doing so puts me at risk of violence or something, if for example this scenario is in some kind of fascist police state, I’m a persecuted minority, etc.

But ignoring the cop and letting him apprehend you while probably interpreting your actions as fleeing is probably not the best choice.

The basic screen design is pathetic. When I do a search I want to see search results. The whole right half of the screen is taken by related searches (your example differs from mine where it puts that Wikipedia summary in the upper right). Then half of the left side is taken up by a “people also ask” block. That leaves a quarter of the screen for search results, which with their inefficient spacing, fits 2 whole results before needing to scroll! If I scroll down I get 7 more before needing to use paging.

When they first rolled it out, they asked for feedback. Good luck trying to find where to submit that.

I’ve never considered it a swear word. It’s more of a euphomism for “shit”. My criteria for “swear” word is whether it is something a kid can say in school with getting yelled at. I realize this may have changed since I was a kid.

I’m going to use this as an opportunity to reminisce about an insane laptop of the past: I once had a thinkpad W700ds. I chose this because work was paying for it, and I wanted a powerful machine and a 17 screen. This was a no compromises “mobile workstation.” I knew it wasn’t going to be light or slim, but my attitude was, what, am I afraid of getting a little extra exercise carrying it around?

But I really wasn’t imagining quite what I got. It weighed almost 11 pounds (maybe more, because I think I added an extra drive). And it was big. Extra thick. I had to search really hard to find a backpack that would actually fit it, and what I ended up having to get was actually targeted at DJ’s. It was a beast.

And the icing on the cake was the extra slide out screen. I knew this was gimmicky, and didn’t actually want it, but the model without it was out of stock. It slid out of the cover on the side, so as to be next to the main monitor, but it was kind of crappy. The resolution wasn’t as good and it was dimmer, so it just didn’t look right. It was kind of embarrassing and contributed to the cover having to be just that much thicker.

Even the power brick was huge.

Yeah, one of those I didn’t really think things through moments. It was a great conversation starter though, if you didn’t mind admitting to being a dork.

We percieve the 3 dimensions we exist in, through a 2d mapping, i.e. our retinas. So I think we are limited in how much of 3d we can really grasp at a time.

The Homophobic Slurs would be a great band name.

I’m using 7 pro right now and there is absolutely nothing making me think about upgrading. So I support the idea that you’re fine with a 9.
