Razors are a high theft item so I believe the argument is this style of packaging makes them harder to steal

5 to 7 honestly. There needs to be more pressure on companies to actually execute on their ideas instead of sitting on them for years

Hives are one of the clearest signs of an allergic reaction. There is basically no normal circumstance where those should occur.

It sounds like there are potentially other factors contributing to your symptoms at home, but the last couple of things happening with dogs in general strongly suggests that you have a dog allergy.

I have to echo other posters here and urge you to see a doctor about testing (if financially viable) and mitigation advice.

Habits can be built and rebuilt. I’ve known a disappointing amount of people who refuse to use a calendar for reminders out of pride and end up being all over the place in the end.

The lawsuit in question is a civil matter, not a criminal one, but you are correct that that is the case if a state prosecutor does decide to bring criminal charges

Uh, nope, you’re putting words in my mouth. It’s not realistic to worry about mitigating that kind of stuff when we can’t even prevent ourselves from cooking ourselves, and several of the things you listed don’t even have plausible technical solutions right now. Nice try, though.

a planetary catastrophe out of our control

You’re still describing climate change. Science fiction ideas are fun to think about but our own inability to live harmoniously with nature is going to kill us off before any of those problems become relevant.

At the very least they need to invest in server side anti cheat. If that’s not viable they should be obliged to adequately moderate their game.

If you can’t accept business plans that make a little less profit to include sufficient human moderation to avoid heavyhanded kernel level anti cheat - you shouldn’t be in the fucking publishing business, you greedy weasels.

Counterpoint, if you have two monitors with different DPI scaling, window dimensions get butchered when moving between them

This looks awesome. Posting so I can read it later - the Mbin mobile site absolutely butchers your table, and I feel like submitting a bug report~

To quote Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 3, Line 87: “No”.

Stealing this to be annoying with

Do I think it’s generally useful? No, not at all.

But for very specific purposes it’s worth considering as an option.

Text-to-image generation has been worth it to get a jumping-off point for a sketch, or to get a rough portrait for a D&D character.

Regular old ChatGPT has been good on a couple occasions for humor (again D&D related; I asked it for a “help wanted” ad in the style of newspaper personals and the result was hilariously campy)

In terms of actual problem solving… There have been a couple instances where, when Google or Stack Overflow haven’t helped, I’ve asked it for troubleshooting ideas as a last resort. It did manage to pinpoint the issue once, but usually it just ends up that one of the topics or strategies it floats prove to be useful after further investigation. I would never trust anything factual without verifying, or copy/paste code from it directly though.

Projection as deflection? Well I never.

I have no idea if it’s an aged sauce. Regardless, I meant it was opened many many years prior

Based on your post, you’re not autistic, you’re just a writer.

It feels like something in the genre of the paradox of tolerance, where the most empathetic and pacifistic people are the people best positioned to remove shitters from the gene pool responsibly

It separated out to half clear vinegar and half… Red

You had to shake it back together but if anything it was even hotter than usual. It was wild

Vinegar based hot sauces are basically immortal; I’ve had Tabasco that was like 10 years old before

I was expecting a tiny “Liam” sticker
