Based on having had to read that comment I would say we're already in the bad place

Discord is an alternative to IRC, the fact that people use it as a replacement for forums is baffling

Maybe a terrestrial globe? That would explain why some have a point labeled "Bangkok" (sic, presumably used an old or regional spelling)

I think I'd like a game with those exact prices... In in-game currency

He has a PhD in Women's Studies.

Pack a bomb??

I'm worried about them randomly selecting my bag for drug inspection or the bag being tagged in the X-ray... And the TSA agents judging my bag packing method and skills

My impression as someone from Europe is that people wouldn't even care if Trump started any war, as long as it isn't named "Civil War" or "WW3"

Wait, really? Whenever I spend more time at work or at home I tend to forget how many really attractive people are really out there. Whenever I go out after a long period of time I end up being positively surprised. I would also not look at Tinder as an example, but because of the opposite: people on tinder look much uglier than in real life. But then again, usually outside you don't look at people for more than one or two seconds, while on tinder there's loads of photos for you to examine every single flaw

I'm glad I'm not searching for romantic advice in this thread because if I were I'd be so confused.

Should I search for a friendship instead of a relationship? Should I make a move? Should I make a move on my friends?!

It depends on the tree, I think, doesn't it? I have a fig tree and the figs are great for about 45 seconds in July. Essentially unfit for human consumption any other time!

I would assume that if they want to make the world a better place, they admit that their actions have long-reaching impact, which is not really a feature of nihilism, optimistic or not

But I'm not an expert, do what you want

Yeaaaaah

This was so impactful that I only recently realized the title of the actual TV show wasn't "Tool Time". People talked about a mysterious show called "Home Improvement" and I didn't even suspect it was the one I watched with my parents all those years ago

As an extra advantage to the nose pinching trick, I no longer turn every dream into a nightmare from seeing my distorted figure in the mirror!

I would give credit, but your username being CarbonatedPastaSauce gives different expectations to any recipe with your name attached

Same here. Last time this was shared I found a single recipe kind of interesting, but not enough for me to actually memorize what it was.

Thinking back, it was probably the Mac and Cheese one, and I had already wanted to try to make it anyway (it's not a very common dish in my country, or at least my circle)

Oh no a massive time sink

(thanks! I have a lot of nostalgia for Runescape but don't want to waste months of my life, so I'm considering getting a single player server up and running with a like 10x exp multiplier. Now to decide on 2003, 2009 or 2012...)

Clearly because it's cheaper than having a lot of people violating the rule a little.

Think of all the savings!

ChatGPT can be super useful, but I'm kind of worried about people learning to use it exclusively.

I tried helping a PhD student assemble a set up for measuring transistors. He used ChatGPT to do all the code for the software control (python), which is fine, even if he relied on it to fix every single part of his code when a quick trip to the reference manuals of the equipments would solve the problem instantly.

At a certain point I realized I maybe had misunderstood his set up design and asked him "wait, which device do you want to connect to your gate? Which terminal even is the gate?"

And I kid you not, the dude asked ChatGPT which terminal in his device was the gate

(he also reeked of weed so there's that)

That was pretty damselfish of you

I bet all the people who said "chess is a solved game" are feeling really silly right now
