And I mean just like 1 or 2 pieces. Not backing up a truck or anything. In case that changes your answer. Thanks

How acceptable is it, if you can reach a plant / tree from the sidewalk, to pick someone else's fruit? Would that be considered weird, or totally acceptable behavior?

Yasher man. It's band.

Trump and the GOP are directly responsible for killing the part of ACA that required people to have insurance in 2017. That is what allowed all the young healthy people to drop their insurance which caused costs to go up for everyone else. It de-socialized it.

Sounds great to me. All the React tooling is annoying.

I don't own one. Can someone objectively confirm a few things about Glocks? Is the following true?:

  • They don't really have a "safety". They have several mechanisms that prevent accidental fire when a finger isn't on the trigger, but if you have a round in the chamber and pull the trigger, it's going to fire (which sounds obvious, but I mean it doesn't have a safety switch like a bb gun usually does)

  • You have to pull back the slide to chamber a round and fire. And once it's chambered, the trigger just needs a light squeeze to fire (as opposed to a full motion squeeze - in other words, the trigger is partially pulled back once racked and easier to fire)

If the above is true, these two things in combination seem like an irrisponsible design to me. You are asking for accidental fires like the one that happens recently where a guy pointed a gun at some kids in his driveway and claims "the gun went off". You should either have a real safety, or it should be harder to squeeze the trigger accidentally.

Circuit City blew all their money trying to create a disposable DVD called Divx. It was intended to replace video rental stores.

Dude was in a no win situation. Reminds me of the "jackets and jeans" sketch on SNL.

Glad she's on the up and up. Any advice on avoiding such a parasite?

What, to rub it in? He's turned that town into a warzone of insanity. Might as well piss in the town square and head out.

 

Not really me. A friend of mine is moving out of state. His neighbor has been a total dick the entire time he's lived there. Constantly commenting on how my friend's yard isn't as good as his. Mean to my friend's wife and kids for no reason. Just an asshole of a person.

What are some ideas for fun pranks my friend can leave behind?

Most don't load for me. Just get a black screen. The ones I've checked were mp4s from imgur. Not sure if that accounts for all of them though.

Edit: I think it started after the most recent update. Edit 2: mp4s from catbox.moe also doesn't work. It shows a spinner at the bottom but never loads.

 

Time to get some coffee and doughnuts

 

My understanding is a valid sudoku should have 1 unique solution. But in this one I just finished, the circled numbers seem to be interchangeable. Am I missing something?

 

Since it recently hit Netflix, I decided to see just how bad Madame Web really is.

45 second in, while showing the ever-present Marvel logo with the flipping comic book pages, I notice the sound effect is different. It vaguely sound like pages flipping, but it's definitely a toilet flushing.

Did they buy into the bad reviews and literally decide to say: "check out this turd of a movie" with the intro sound?

Filter to 1-star and note how many reviews are direct copies of each other - many referencing that the Obamas are executive producers.

 

This all revolves around conservatives focusing on ARR instead of RRR numbers on vaccine efficacy. Here's a description I found of the difference from another article:

Let’s say a study enrolled 20,000 patients into the control group and 20,000 in the vaccine group. In that study, 200 people in the control group got sick and 0 people in the vaccine group got sick. Even though the vaccine efficacy would be a whopping 100%, the ARR would show that vaccines reduce the absolute risk by just 1% (200/20,000= 1%). For the ARR to increase to 20% in our example study with a vaccine with 100% efficacy, 4,000 of the 20,000 people in the control group would have to get sick (4,000/20,000= 20%).
