  He hasn’t had a great streak in completing progress in haunted chocolatier because he keeps getting pulled back into stardew valley ports and making new content for stardew valley. If he and his collaborators soon have to support both stardew valley and haunted chocolatier across multiple platforms, I don’t expect development on a new stardew valley game to progress quickly at all. I would expect half life 3 like timelines.

  The North Carolina legislature has a supermajority of far right republicans. The NC GOP is currently brazenly attempting to throw out legitimate ballots to steal a state supreme court seat, and the courts are going along with it. If they want to move for political concerns, I don’t think NC is enough of an improvement to justify the disruption involved.

  Another way to view it is that college classes are filled with your future colleagues, and should be treated similar to a workplace. Students should generally dress similarly to how they expect to dress in their future workplaces. Whether that excludes a tank top is a matter of discretion, but clearly the proffesor did not find it to be professional. There’s no hard and fast rule, but I am surprised by the indignant tone in the comments here. Lectures are the domain of the professor and its not outlandish for them to set expectations about what they consider acceptable conduct for their lectures.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is happening with Tesla (TSLA) stock currently? 📈⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Is the sales tax in your area 7.5% by any chance?

  $16 x (100/107.5)= $14.88

  I don’t see any gloves priced at 14.88 on their website at a quick check. I wonder if the store is trying to set a price that tallies to an even dollar amount and doesn’t know the connotation. I only recently learned about those numbers being associated so I would like to believe a benign explanation. Maybe you could ask to talk to a store manager next time you see it an make sure they know to avoid that price point.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Taking an oral steroid like prednisone can help prevent asthma attacks for milder allergies, but that might not be sufficient for a severe peanut allergy.

  Epinephren is not a gentle drug. You do not want to have to use an epi pen if you can avoid it. It causes the heart to race and result in lots of side effects that would make a flight extremely uncomfortable. I think it’s also metabolized quickly enough that a single dose is not going to last a whole flight.

  I’m not an expert though, I just have multiple family members with moderate to severe allergies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨US could cut Ukraine's access to Starlink internet services over minerals, say sources.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I see it as an extension of the myth of American purity and external corruption. “This person is evil, some outside power must have compromising info on them.” “Immigrants are violent criminals preying on innocent americans.”

  These attitudes ignore the reality that bad people can come from anywhere. There are plenty of villians with very mundane origin stories. What matters is if everyone else has the will and ability to keep bad people in check and hold them accountable.

  The grifters in charge need no other motivation than a sense of superiority and an opportunity to make a buck.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PayPal owns brands like Venmo, Honey and is heavily integrated into eBay - if you're looking to stop giving your money to bad companies, take a second to search their subsidiary brands as well.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  From wikipedia

  Zelle (/zɛl/) is a United States–based digital payments network run by a private financial services company owned by the banks Bank of America, Truist, Capital One, JPMorgan Chase, PNC Bank, U.S. Bank, and Wells Fargo.

  So PayPal does not seem to own an interest in Zelle, but the group of owners isn’t necessarily better than PayPal.

  Cutting a single cable feels like a means of probing the response. Where does the traffic get rerouted through? How long does it take to repair a cable? Which handful of crews even have that capability. Could selective sabotage be used to force traffic through a compromized node?

  I definitely think there’s a bigger game at play and Russia and China are both trying to characterize communications infrastructure.

  That’s pretty neat and I didn’t know that existed. The whole external projector requirement is rather limiting though. A cloth like screen could be a nice improvement to the concept.

  There’s no risk for a factory condition unit. This rumor started after people with units that had been dissasembled and reassembled had issues with vertical orientation. It turned out that it’s very easy to mess up the seals that keep the liquid metal thermal interface in place. So units that had been previously taken apart had liquid metal slowly leak, causing overheating and/or shorting.

  If you haven’t taken the cooler off the mainboard, using the vertical stand is just fine. I haven’t seen any evidence of factory assembled units suffering leaking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eat lead⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, and lead is produced in much greater abundance than uranium.

  The part that’s missing in the post is in looking specifically at uranium deposits and making assumptions about the initial composition of the deposits, since the crystalline structure excludes lead when the crystals form. So if you detect lead contained within zircon, it is assumed to be the product of radioactive decay.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨that's a huge sprout⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Similar to your third option, cut kielbasa into ⅓" slices. Brown in generous amounts of butter. Remove from pan and brown a similar volume lf sweet onions. Add in sliced cabbage about half way through and adjust your heat to keep everything browning. Get the egg noodles going. When the cabbage has cooked down enough to be tender add the kielbasa back in and turn down the heat. Season with salt and peper, and a couple splashes lf balsamic vinegar. Be conservative with the balsamic, but it will really make the seared kielbasa pop if you get it right. Then serve with the wide egg noodles when they finish cooking. The wide egg noodles should look more like a wide fettucini, not the short curly noodles that many stores carry.
