Is it common for a medicine to be 100% effective? That seems weird to me.

This is the wrong sub for such comments... but I agree with you. If you need a truck and you have a family you can buy the smaller truck, but then you also have to buy a car to carry the family. The larger truck will let you haul your family and give you the pickup truck that you need.

Except it isn't just a name change because with this change you can no longer use it for person to person payments.

I was a low level IT guy many years ago and had worked for the company for about 4 years. There was a sales guy also named Bob that I would help out a few times a year. It was a small company, around 50 employees, and every year at the company Christmas party sales guy Bob would come up to me and say "I don't think we've met, I'm Bob".

That pissed me off, but it is the only time I can remember where I was upset someone didn't remember my name.

This is in regards to the N.R.A. bringing a suit against a NY official who had threatened banks and insurance companies in an effort to stop them from doing business with the N.R.A. after the Parkland shootings.

Customers and shareholders of those banks and insurance companies can put pressure on them to stop doing business with the N.R.A., but government officials, especially in official acts, cannot.

I'm sure if the details of this case were changed so that it took place in Texas, and instead of the N.R.A., it was Planned Parenthood... it would still be a unanimous opinion, right?

The trick is to then open the image in Gimp and export it.

Awesome! Now do it to keep the cops from being able to force you to unlock your phone under duress.

Here's the one I got... not sure which is worse.

This doesn't stop doctors, nurses and teachers from reporting abuse, it just exempts them from the law that compels them to report abuse.

Amazingly, none of our troops in WWII hooked up with any Nazis they met online.

My old VW Beetle had an unreliable starter, so I often found myself push-starting it. You don't see many people push-starting vehicles today, and even fewer doing it by themselves.

I work in IT and the one that kills me is when someone says or writes "On premise" when they mean "On premises". I have worked for cloud companies and even the official literature is wrong. It has gotten to the point where so many people get it wrong that the official meaning is going to be changed because people are dumb and we can't have nice things.

Words have meaning, stop fucking them up!

 

Prompt___a ((realistic photo)) featuring a burrito-shaped ((rocket wearing a ((sombrero)))), orbiting the moon. The rocket should resemble a burrito, complete with tortilla texture, ((tortilla chip fins)), cheese sauce exhaust flames, and ((giant sombrero on top)), highly detailed, excitement and whimsy
