Those birds choose to be in there and can get out, the one that fell down the chimney into my basement a few months ago needed help to get out.

Chimney swifts are neat birds. They can’t perch on flat surfaces!

Not saying that teacher didn’t suck, but method can be important in earlier math classes. So much of early math is about developing number sense and just understanding what is being represented by a mathematical statement. If a method is a stand in for a larger level comprehension, say, showing that 3*2 is also represented by three rows of two, ie
🟦🟦
🟦🟦
🟦🟦Just regurgitating a memorized number doesn’t show that deeper understanding.

- Comment on Microsoft Still Can't Say How Much the ROG Xbox Ally X Will Cost Due to "Macro-Economic" Conditions, Despite Announcing Release Date and Availability Details(Leaked prices $549.99/$899 for Ally/Ally ) 3 weeks ago:
I got the “not prey” bit and the Predator movie franchise when I bought it (if the first thing I thought of was the other definition, I probably would have bought a different laptop), but I’d completely forgotten about Alienware, the Alien vs Predator angle is kinda funny.
Still, at some point you think they’d go for a rebrand, because you don’t want people to think about your line of gaming laptops and go “wait… yuck”.

I’ve got an old-ish Acer Predator and thankfully it doesn’t have quite that level of dogshit branding but I did have to go into the bios to disable the boot screen and obnoxiously loud boot up noise. I like the metal and the RGB isn’t that bad, but if I buy another gaming laptop it’s probably not going to be from the Predator line since that seems to be all NVIDIA and I use Linux now, lol. Also who the hell thought Predator was an appropriate name for any commercial product, it’s pretty yikes.
(Also my laptop has always been an RGB space heater but that seems to be a problem with gaming laptops in general).

I’m on Jerboa and spoiler tags work on here, it’s a very plain implementation though, just

and you tap on the arrow or the text to see the spoiler. I like it but it might not be that obvious you can do that.

I’m still angry about CTR. I was so hyped for that remake but didn’t buy immediately at launch so I’d avoid the launch bugs… and then they added the microtransactions. I will not pay for a game that has microtransactions, so I haven’t played it. The originals are still a blast though.

Up until probably about a decade ago I would occasionally go into small shops that used dial up to process credit card payments. There may still be some places doing that but I haven’t noticed it in a while.
