    Not sure if you know this or not but they're already pivoting to avocados...

    Weird way to try to discredit someone...(?) Works fine on my 2017 XPS 15/Firefox Quantum.

    Why is this being downvoted?

    Don't have a problem with that phrase in a vacuum but in context of this discussion I find it highly problematic. Who decides the standard? Which standards actually matter? I guess…

    I think the reason OP listed "sexism, slutshaming" separately is because they're separate issues. The downvotes are coming from your erroneous conflation of the two (and possibly b…

    But again, that literally has nothing to do with filming in court and only whether or not the judge should've recused themself... Where in "Akins also argues that the district cour…

    Wait, where do you see anywhere in the ruling a decision about anything other than whether the judge should've been recused or not...?

    It's literally linked in the article in full. It's only like 5 pages long. Very clear and obvious that this case had nothing to do with whether you could or couldn't film a public …

    Yeah, the ruling wasn't at all about his filming of police officers, it was about whether or not the judge should have recused themself..(?) I'm very confused as to how you could s…

    Better yet, take the advice given and download the free epub and pick a random page and decide for yourself whether iambic pentameter is kept!

    Hopefully this will at least get you to look for modern, home defense rounds and then come to your old conclusions about 5.56 and dry wall... I'm not trying to prove you wrong here…

    I think this is a good time to maybe do some research into whether your complaints are valid or not before making them... You clearly aren't seeing that the point, in fact, does no…

    Not trying to sound rude at all, but you should actually read the link... Relevant excerpts: "Tests 1-6: Bare gelatin, heavy clothing, automobile sheet metal, wallboard, plywood, a…

    FBI decided that, "[i]n every test, with the exception of soft body armor, which none of the SMG fired rounds defeated, the .223 penetrated less on average than any of the pistol b…

    Right, but that's only for attempted suicide and it doesn't mean they aren't kept AFTER. I was looking for a citation that suggests involuntary stays are shorter than a month on av…

    Could you possibly do the same for your numbers: "less than 4 days"? I trust that you're a psychiatrist but you could be spewing old or incorrect numbers just as easily as anyone e…

    Really confused as to why you were downvoted as you were the person being asked what IC stood for... Pretty sure it's because they assumed IC was Individual Contributor but to down…

    IANAL, but in the US, he'd be Trespassing if someone from the company asked him to leave and he didn't (which seems to be the case here). In some jurisdictions, DA/SAs will bump it…

    Distro is synonymous with OS at this point. No one is using it as a derogatory term for OSes that aren't different enough to give them the denotation of "OS". That said, you're goi…

    I wonder how many of the bugs were squashed by Dr. Su himself and how many were DISs or other forms of work supervised by Su. Maybe he did kill that many bugs on his own but that s…
