They're almost certainly volunteer fire fighters given that this is a rather small town, so there might not have been any present at the time.

It makes me go from "oh god i have to do this and aaaaah ok ok i will manage the next step and oh shit i did 3 clicks in a row go me. Ok now again... nah in 2 minutes i need a break ok time to focus on random thing for a minute and ohhh godddddddd i don't wanna go back to being productive" to "meh gotta do this i guess, click click click, ok again, click click click , do random thing for a minute, ok continue being productive, click click click..."

Large parts of asia (and prob some elsewhere) use YYYY/MM/DD

If it's commonly understood, yes. That is how language works. Words change over time. Reading "would of" is jarring as fuck but it's also not really mistakable for anything other than would've.

I recently got a used gaming laptop for the rare times I'm away from home for a while (next time likely for christmas) so the plan is to put linux on that from the start and see how it goes. And maybe getting diagnosed for adhd and getting on medication will mean I actually have the motivation to switch from windows before it becomes absolutely necessary, though thankfully I don't get any start menu ads since I got rid of those with WinAeroTweaker, so I'm mostly happy with it.

Though I've been having some weird crashing issues that look like broken ram but aren't, so if I end up replacing my mainboard from that (because at this point idk what else it would be) I'd likely have to reinstall windows anyway, and at that point I'd just switch.

I didn't mind 7, some things I even thought were great compared to XP (like the search).

I can tolerate 10 well enough still given the de facto convenience of running windows for gaming, but the moment end of service comes around next year I'm switching to linux. I also have to use win 11 at work and it's just infuriating how much worse it is. And conveniently Linux gaming got pretty good in the meantime, and I've been told I can now even set up a windows VM with GPU passthrough that activates when I start the VM for the cases where Linux just won't work (though idk if that'll work when the issue is anticheat, but I don't play anything where that's relevant anyway).

Nah honestly given the difference in danger depending on the food this isn't bad to know. I'm familiar with pasta turning into a weird consistency with weird smell and I always threw it away when that happens, but since it's not disgusting per se I'd probably have eaten it in a pinch (unlike, say, moldy food or meat that's been sitting for a while).

I also know of people with some insnae aversion to wasting food that lends them to claim moldy meat is still good to eat (mother of a friend) so if anyone is in a situation with someone like that it's good to be aware of how dangerous some foods that might not seem as bad are.

The actual opposite of conservative in this case would be progressive. Liberal isn't a relative term, progressive is. It's easy enough to tell from context but when there's already no info on how these graphs came to be it just adds to them being questionable.

Israel is fucked in very similar ways but they're not antisemitic in the modern use of the word at least (i.e. hating jews). And nazi tends to include that too.

If he just said they're a genocidal regime I'd be with him on that, they did somehow manage to make russias invasion of ukraine look less bad in comparision.

That isn't the limitation though, it's the consequence. The phrasing of the tweet is extremely memable, but thinking about it for 5 seconds should make you realize that negative prices mean they REALLY need to get rid of it. Because having too much energy in the grid is a problem.

They can delete 6.5 billion accounts without claiming they are active users.

That just depends on what you consider the default state to be. Claiming that humans have self awareness, but other animals do not, implies a relationship between species and capability for self awareness. The null hypothesis would imply a lack thereof.

It would be correct and good to acknowledge that we simply don't know whether a given species is self-aware unless evidence points to one or the other direction. And that is very relevant for moral philosophy.
