Victoria to Queensland.

I have flown from the Garden State to the Sunshine State in two different countries.

At least Clone High got an entire season.

It has two.

I watched every minute of Francis Ford Coppola’s “Megalopolis” in a movie theater.

If you’re in the USA, I wouldn’t do law. The field is saturated with lawyers and a reason for AI development is to replace lawyers.

Here’s a half hour video on how industrial work differed from agricultural work

There are some cases where stresses back then were worse than today, but there are a lot of cases where today is worse from the point of view of certain stresses.

You also have differences in expectations. For instance, it was common for children to die due to different reasons. That vastly changes the parent-child dynamic.

As far as I remember in Portal, the portals could move if the plates moved.

Shoot the portal on two moveable plates. Move the plates as needed to ship goods. For instance, I imagine making a lot of money shoving sea ice into a portal exiting Lake Powell.

Lemmy is good for the size. It took a while for Lemmy to adjust to its current scale, with major instances having uptime issues.

If we keep the servers up, there is still issues with spam and moderation. We don’t have the tools that Reddit built and I expect further pushes towards defederation as the standard for users hasn’t been developed.

Because Lemmy is nowhere near as ready for primetime as other platforms.

The term Yankee includes more than New England. That’s why I didn’t use the term New England while you did.

That’s the reason I didn’t say New England.

I call mine the Criterion Collection!

Yep. I’m on the blunt side and I’ve been told by some people that they thought people did something wrong based on my direct communication. I had to respond that I work in an industry where you have to be blunt to communicate what you want, so bluntness is the standard.

On the flip side, I’ve gotten frustrated by people who are far more passive in giving direction because it ends up leading to poor decisions and rework that should have been addressed because they didn’t provide clarity when asked to.

In the USA, Yankee refers to mainly northeast US, including the New York City area. Western Americans would be neutral about being called that and you might piss off some southerners.

My exposure to the term gringo has mainly been that it refers to white Americans. I don’t know if you would call a black American gringo or how they would accept it.

Sounds like something out of a horror film. Your body heat melts you into the material. Then, as heat gets distributed and you have more skin contact, you are no longer generating enough heat to keep the gallium melted.

You either suffocate as the material solidifies around your abdomen or you freeze to death as the material pulls enough heat from you to kill you.

For someone who doesn’t drink and with your weight, you’ll probably feel one.

Also, mixed drinks are more variable on determining when you are drunk. The liquor used to make it may be stronger or weaker. The quantity of alcohol can also be adjusted by the bartender.

Yeah. The only thing I’d clarify is if she is paying rent or contributing to the mortgage. Paying rent is cleaner and she isn’t paying half, but it is important to have an understanding about this in case there is a breakup or death.

That was a design decision by Steve Jobs to keep people from using them as wired mice.

Yes, because I grew up in an area where private pools were very common.
