Don’t worry, your pessimism isn’t totally misplaced. See that big “natural gas” line?
Natural gas is just a more palatable word for methane, and burning methane is still putting an enormous amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. But methane by itself is like 10x worse than CO2 and the EPA estimates as much as 10% of all methane for domestic use ends up in the atmosphere. Fun!
That’s not run down, that’s a warehouse. Is it falling apart? Is the flooring worn? Are the walls cracking? Ceilings leaking? That’s what run down means, not whatever your weird complaint is about the decor and color scheme is.
Elden Ring. Been on a souls like kick, so decided to do another playthrough. Haven’t played in over a year I don’t think so it’s time!
Okay but FR wtf is usenet. I’ve never known, and I’m old enough to be able to say that I should
Zero points in the second half is a little concerning though. It ended up being enough but it’s wild how they’re struggling to score recently.
I’m sure plenty of people would understand it, but I’m struggling with a project at work where I’ve got an operator giving me bad data, and the project appears unsafe and I need to decide and convince my management if we’re going to object to it or not.

Return all that shit, sell your keyboard, and buy one with USB instead.
For those that don’t want to see it the way I’ve been describing it to people is that his body is going forward while his knee and everything below it takes a very hard right.
He’s also the legit coolest looking dude in the league and his self deprecation is second to none
Yes. Kevin Durant tore his Achilles and didn’t even realize it until he finished sprinting down the court. Rodgers didn’t seem to realize it until he tried to stand up. Probably has to do with adrenaline but lots of athletes seem to tear it and not realizes right away, whereas an ACL or hamstring people seem to notice immediately.
Man, it seems like an Achilles tear is the meanest injury. Like so many times athletes don’t even notice it happens, then they go to do something totally normal (like get up after a routine hit/sack) and then realize they can’t. Like most the time I’ve seen them they’re not even in pain they just straight up cant use their leg correctly.
Fuckin sucks man.
You should really change your wipers more. The blades crack and become ineffective with age even if unused. Maybe not every year but every couple years!
Staying inbounds and getting smashed to pick up half an extra yard instead of going out of bounds when he already had a first. Flubbing the snap, picking it up and then immediately running full force into the D line and tumbling (again) instead of just taking the sack or throwing it away. Forcing the ball into triple coverage to get it intercepted instead of settling for three. Running into three defenders in open field instead of just sliding.
He looked like 2018 Allen tonight and 2018 Allen was not good.
Recognized that it was part of what makes me successful and learned to control it a little. For example, when I struggled with getting things done on time, I learned to set deadlines for myself and stuck to them. I realized that I work better when I know I’m a little up against the clock, so I kind of built that in for myself. The hard part is the not moving the deadline. You can’t view it as moveable or it doesn’t work.
I also ask myself “how long is it going to take” and most things if the answer is less than five minutes, I just try to force myself to do it and get it out of the way.
For other recurring things I do them on a schedule. So like, every weekend there are things around the house I need to do. It doesn’t matter when I do them but I have to get them done the day I say I will. That’s the deal Iake myself and it helps.
Those are some of my personal hacks. They don’t work for everyone but they work for me.
If you’re using the connect app (if not, you should try it!), just tap the three dots any post you see by them, and click “block instance.” Easy peasy.
Its kind of fucked either way. They’re too short but a lot happens because each book is broken into thirds that are separated by huge time gaps, and inside those thirds there are also time gaps. A movie, even a long one, would be incredibly disjointed and the pacing would feel bizarre.
I imagine it’s probably why nobody has made it a series or movie before even though it’s such a beloved sci Fi series. You’d have to take a lot of creative liberties with it, which is for better or worse, what they’re doing.
I’ve just started the show, and I feel like from the outset they made it clear that a LOT of the show is creative fiction to fill in the gaps. I feel like a lot of people forget just how short the original trilogy is. F, F&E and SF, collectively, are like an 8 hour read! I don’t love everything the show has done (and some of the acting is atrocious) but I love how they chose what boils down to allusions in the books and focused whole episodes on what that would’ve looked like in real time.
I also really like how they are not afraid to completely abandon cliff hangers for several episodes at a time, while still keeping you invested in what’s happening. Asimov dwas notorious for that and did it SEVERAL times on the trilogy. Oh you wanna know what happens? Well I’ll tell you eventually, but first, here’s forty pages introducing brand new characters on a completely different planet…300 years in the future. Bitch.
YES, methane stays in the atmosphere a shorter duration as methane, but most of it naturally breaks down into CO2 which then stays in the atmosphere just as long as all the other CO2. It is much worse than CO2 as a greenhouse gas.
