Holy crap. Used in some cultures on unruly children so that their ancestors could directly admonish them!

Literally have watched the typically accepted propaganda get removed quickly on that sub. Also had several conversations with mods when I was on there. Levelheaded and quite serious about their work. Literally the only sub that seemed to maintain ethics and consistency.

That being said, I’ve not been on there in a couple of years.

Look up Douglas Adams’ puddle analogy?

“If you imagine a puddle waking up one morning and thinking, 'This is an interesting world I find myself in — an interesting hole I find myself in — fits me rather neatly, doesn't it? In fact it fits me staggeringly well, must have been made to have me in it!"

They are great for particular applications of use. I use the last one you mention all the time, as it is quicker for what I typically am doing and easier than tabbing through.

No clue about the reference of the first one…

Mind you, as MacOS moves closer to Win11 esque feeling, I’m starting to introduce the family to more Linux devices…

I’ve broken an arm, neck, and a leg. I’ve had gall stones (actually worse that the others). I had kidney stones and was being constantly asked my pain level and was just on my phone and calmly said ‘seven’ and they didn’t believe me, until they got the CT results of the three 7-9mm stones lodged my ureters. The nurse was confused and I had to explain to the doc on call they needed to remember that things are all relative. Once they saw my BP edging toward stroke level, they brought out the meds.

It is complicated to be honest in medicine, isn’t it.

My baby you’ll be, or some such did me in as a parent who lost their mother. I’m not good to read that one.

Y’all don’t know enough theatre folks. We will always commit to a bit for a laugh.
