Kids these days? I remember putting a IRC/Runescape combo program on a flash drive so I could play Runescape with my guild during computer class 20 years ago. I have no idea why it got around the network restrictions, but it did.

- Comment on Walmart Is Putting Digital Labels That Change Prices Instantly on Every Store Shelf in America 2 weeks ago:
Be sure to handle them appropriately, the screens are vulnerable to damage, and replacing them would be more expensive than printing out a new paper tag. It’d sure be a shame if the corps lost money there.
- Comment on Is giving only formula long term "healthy" for a baby? 2 weeks ago:
Fed is best.
If you can breastfeed, that’s fantastic! But don’t be ashamed if you’re struggling to produce milk, it’s quite common and you shouldn’t avoid formula out of fear. It’s far worse for a baby to go hungry!
- Comment on The 10 Commandments apparently mentions absolutely nothing about protecting children from abuse. 2 weeks ago:
Do you have a source? I was always told that Roman patriacians were allowed to marry 12yo girls, but most girls married at 16, and that puberty was around 14-16.

- Comment on Is trying weed edibles worth it? 2 weeks ago:
It’s a toss up. Either it’s going to be a fun time, or you’re gonna accidentally overdo it and get sick. MIL was a og hippie, and she got sick after smoking again for the first time since Woodstock because everything is so much stronger than it used to be.

Imagine Spez’s reaction if he was forced to federate.
- Comment on Avocado. Is it really so untasty or I am doing something wrong? 4 weeks ago:
Avocados aren’t supposed to be sweet. I can’t do dairy, so sometimes I’ll use avocado to get that creaminess I’m looking for, but my favorite way to eat them is in guacamole with some tortilla chips.
- Comment on People who reject challenging ideas as stupid without engagement are like intellectual nepobabies 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, I agree that the attempt to engage is the most important aspect. What actually constitutes “engagement” is up to semantic debate.
I do think that new arguments should be evaluated, even if it’s presented in bad faith. I feel that the bad faith nature of the argument is a factor that counts poorly in my evaluation, but it’s good to have a solid understanding of the nuance in your stance, even when it comes to the ridiculous.
- Comment on People who reject challenging ideas as stupid without engagement are like intellectual nepobabies 5 weeks ago:
But by your own admittance, you did think about it once the question was posed, so no, you’re not an intellectual nepobaby.
We have all had past experiences with how hard brick-adjacent substances affect teeth, so it’s not discarding it as a knee-jerk reaction. If you went to a dental college, and the professor made the claim before you knew better, I’d assume you’d be interested in finding out how he came to that conclusion, correct?
- Comment on People who reject challenging ideas as stupid without engagement are like intellectual nepobabies 5 weeks ago:
For example, should I engage in the “challenging idea” that the world is run by lizard people?
As a counterpoint, you likely have. You’re aware of the position, aware of the proposed evidence, and determined the evidence falls short of proof, which means you’ve engaged with their thinking before rejecting it.

I’m not going to show you my ID, but I can hold an extensive conversation with you about Gaia Online, which should prove my age quite well.

- Comment on T-shirt? 1 month ago:
I know this is a shitpost, but real answer: A t-shirt bra is a specific style of bra intended to be worn under t-shirts. They’re supposed to have softer seamlines and less bulk, so they’re not so obvious under thin fabric, but some women just find them more comfortable.

Pretend to be something you’re not
In my life, I was Noel Gruber who worked at Taco Bell in Uranium City, Saskatchewan. But in my dreams I played a different role. I was Monique Gibeau in post-war France! A hooker, with a heart of black charcoal.

That’s good then. A lot of stuff uses the standard numberpad.

The thing with pattern unlock is that it is inherently less secure than the other options
Does Graphene scramble the keypad between PIN entries? If not, it’s functionally the same as a pattern unlock.
