I didn’t make a mistake. I understood the intent. You decided it was a mistake because you like playing with semantics. You’re a semantichist (hah! See what I did there?)

They chose a headline that catches attention, and it bothered you enough to warrant your attention too. Effective. Communication. The words that were chosen had the intended effect.

Going to repeat Glemek because you’ve received a shocking number of upvotes.

The point is that people who haven’t seen someone drown, may not know what drowning looks like, with the exception of media depictions.

The title and headline communicate the point effectively which draws out the semantics sadists such as yourself.

Sounds like you live in a black and white world. Sorry, the world is not as easy as you’d like.

Trying to claim that all people who work in tech are in on sinister plots for Big Tech is cartoon-level oversimplification.

Do you understand how language evolves? It’s ok to be “wrong” as long as you’ve communicated successfully.

I actually can’t find anything in the flag code about that. I find a lot of other organizations citing the flag code, and purporting that same point though.

I’m in the military. In the uniform regs it dictates what you’re saying. But that’s not the flag code.

This doesn’t look like it’s depicting the military though… Also, pop culture influence doesn’t make it a bad thing IMO. Being lazy and avoiding paying artists to produce slop is. Especially when this is supposedly the party of “hard work” and “bootstraps”

I’ve seen it either way. That’s the least problematic part of this whole thing.

Not surprised. Same friend waited over a year once for a different tax stamp. Can’t imagine why other than intentional slow rolling.

Last year! Sounds like it’s changed since then.

I mean, purely anecdotal, but I had a close friend who had to do the process and it took over six months of waiting. Not difficult I guess, but it did take a long time…

You can’t easily buy one. You need a tax stamp and that’s a bit of a process. But you can buy one.

Jesus H Christ, the number of not Dull posts on here is egregious /s

That looks fantastic!

If you’re cutting really dense or thick boards, like you said melamine, then you’ll want to find a way to “attach” the saw legs to the floor. That style of table saw WILL move when you are pushing baords through it.

Stay safe brother, have fun rippin!

I actually prefer the circular saw + jig combo for heavier/denser boards.

Naturally, objectifying women is the best example you could argue againt socialism with?

I think it’s ok for women to be allowed to ask men or at the gym purely based on the reason why it’s not ok for men to ask.

An estimated 91% of victims of rape & sexual assault are female and 9% male. Nearly 99% of perpetrators are male. (1) This US Dept. of Justice statistic does not report those who do not identify in these gender boxes.

Men commit the preponderance of sexual violence/harassment by a long shot.

It’s become the norm for men to leave women alone in less-than-social spaces because it provides a more welcoming environment. Which is a huge cultural improvement IMO. The other way around though is fine. I don’t think most men are expecting to be sexually harassed/abused by women in those same spaces.

Not saying it couldn’t happen, because it does, but it’s SOOOOO MUCH less likely.

Clippy coding! Newer coders won’t get the reference, older coders can hold it with the same scorn.

How’s the air up there?

Nations are made of people, that make local gov, that make state govs. We need to change the smallest part that makes up the rest of the machine before you can “fix” the 2 party system.

Everyone keeps taking about the DNC like it is some colossus. We can either change it to our liking or make our own, but either way it starts by changing the smallest parts first.

It’s pretty easy to find, but JK Rowling is a TERF. She actively contributes money to anti-Trans efforts and is unapologetic about any of it.

Here’s an article from a ways back.

Do you understand how far orbits are in general? We have satellites in orbit around earth at varying distances based on what service those satellites provide. Some of those orbits are 22,000 mi above earth, which is a super popular orbit distance.

I would still consider these things as part of earth because it’s a physical feature of earth. Same with the moon. In astronomical terms, getting within several thousand miles of a thing, is entering the physical space of that thing.

I’d compare it more to going to the 820 loop around Fort Worth. You’re not in Fort Worth, but if you lived in New Mexico and we’re going to a small town outside Fort Worth, you might still tell people that you’re headed to Fort Worth.
