I have some time to kill before having to run some errands. I’ve started with the first one and it’s pretty fun!

Said “fuck yeah” a couple times to myself when I got the answer right. I’ve not used SQL before but I’ve got a decent grasp (as in I get the basics) on programming languages so it’s somewhat intuitive to me

Thanks for the links!! I look forward to continuing when I get back

They don’t need to mirror inventory across all stores. They could rebrand some of the redundant stores to set them apart from their general craft stores

Big name chains often do similar things, splitting off more niche or focused locations

I’m very sorry I didn’t think of this context. I wasn’t being daft intentionally, it just didn’t occur to me when I was trying to figure out the situation

I can understand now. Thank you for sharing and gently explaining the situation

(I’m also very, very sorry to have implied your mother had cheated in that scenario. I did not mean to cast shade on her character)

Thank you; I’m sorry I missed that broader context. I try to think critically about what I read and sometimes I struggle with widening my scope of thinking

That would indicate your mom cheated as well? Not sure exactly what your dad cheating has to do with your DNA. Wouldn’t it be better to find out he wasn’t your dad if he was so shitty?

A part of me actually wished that the Onion would have purchased InfoWars, but in secret, like maybe under a subsidiary corp that has a right-wing sounding name.

"Today we celebrate a new addition to the Global Tetrahedron LLC family of brands. "

don’t change Infowars’ branding

"Founded in 1999 … InfoWars has distinguished itself as an invaluable tool for brainwashing and controlling the masses.

…

InfoWars has shown an unswerving commitment to manufacturing anger and radicalizing the most vulnerable members of society—values that resonate deeply with all of us at Global Tetrahedron.

No price would be too high for such a cornucopia of malleable assets and minds. … a steep bargain: less than one trillion dollars."

I’m absolutely not disagreeing with you; I believe the onion will continue on doing “its thing” and keeping on-brand for both entities. Do exactly what you say and publish articles either believable or outlandish enough to break through to people

That was a fascinating read, thank you. It’s so sad the same parallels can be drawn to so many “well intentioned” programs and institution

I’ve been in similar situations before as others have commented; needing to rely on some service in order to have a place to live food to eat, and a chance to get a leg up. Fortunately they weren’t too preachy and respected the diverse backgrounds we all hailed from

So, anyone with an android can let you use theirs and the “find device” app in guest mode. Your info won’t be saved but that option is there for exactly your use case

Not even that for me; most of the random things I want to add to my “to watch” list aren’t even on a streaming service

You can change that on a per-profile basis

What I find works pretty well is to have the bag ready and put the first item into it and then set it down on the bAgGiNg ArEa together

Absolutely one of my favorite james acaster quotes! His whole Netflix special, “Repertoire” is just fantastic
