I mean, it doesn't take a degree to know 365 x 100 = 36,500 and not 365,000.

But I guess she isn't saying that you need a degree to know that.

What do you use as a thousands separator then?

I'm mostly unfamiliar with different systems than the standard comma for thousands and period for decimal. I've seen period used for thousands before, but in that case how does one differentiate between a thousands period and a decimal period?

Not a fan of Bush or the GOP but the Wikipedia article basically refutes that he was flummoxed...

Whereas here Mr. Vance's cringe is kind of palpable.

I'm confused, I thought this was a picture of two gaping assholes.

National Lampoon's Senior Trip.

I watched Jeremy Renner's wired auto complete interview on YouTube and he mentioned that was his first role. So I looked it up and it had 0% on rotten tomatoes. And I thought to myself, it can't be that bad.

It was pretty bad, maybe not 0% bad, but I found very few redeeming qualities.

I would not recommend.

This belongs in /c/aneurysmposting. I can't remember how to link to communities in lemmy.

Really depends on how you do it, just ask Putin for advice, I'm sure he can give you all the ins and outs.

Depending on the accent, that's a pretty good little poem.

I don't think you're really making any Americans feel bad, we're pretty good at doing that all by ourselves. Also I'm sure plenty of people would like to leave, they just can't for a variety of reasons. Money and very strict immigration rules (of other countries) being the top two but they've already been mentioned. It's also very difficult to leave your family and move somewhere where you know virtually no one for a lot of people, even if they meet the previous requirements.

If we're talking about Paul, he's the result of over ten millennia of a secret breeding program by the bene gesserit (albeit a generation earlier than planned) AND royalty.

I love Dune more than anything outside of Hitchhiker's Guide, but I don't think Paul really fits here. He's double special before the spice.

Pretty sure bird meetings start a little bit before 5am.

Right outside my bedroom window.
