That is some prizewinning headline writing there.

I'm not going to transcribe the article for you dude.

You should probably read the context around a comment before replying to it.

Instead of Kleenex I go to the bathroom, blow my nose into my hands, then wash my hands. I've never entirely understood the need for disposable intermediaries. Blowing my nose Kleenex or not without washing my hands afterwards seems unsanitary so why add waste?

I mean, yeah it's possible to watch a show and only watch the "MOTW" style episodes that don't deal with the central overarching plot. I wouldn't recommend it in DS9 though.

Are those barely related facts or are you convinced a kid being just forced to learn an instrument qualifies as child abuse?

Yeah, I got that part, why is there someone behind them super weirdly embracing them?

Gotta admit I can't argue here, I only briefly had to deal with SAIF for a pretty minor on the job injury that did not result in any paid time loss and I barely had to think about it, just went to the doctor and didn't pay anything a few times. Easy to imagine that experience is not universal to more serious issues.

WTAF is going on with that thumbnail?

I am... ALMOST sure they're making a joke about farting keeping them awake.

People get a significant amount of their protein intake from sources that aren't usually considered "proteins". Lentils (and mung beans if you don't think of them as lentils), wheat, rice etc all have significant amounts of protein (especially lentils). Yogurt and cheese has lots of it too. Not sure what part of India you're in or what sort of food you're mostly eating but my guess is you're getting more protein than you realize.

Just put Tumbleweed on my laptop because I was sick of Windows 11 (I used Linux in the past but haven't used it for many years). I have an Elan 04f3:0903 Fingerprint reader which is listed as supported here https://fprint.freedesktop.org/supported-devices.html Don't know how to get it working though, the Tumbleweed user fingerprint configuration I can't get working and fprintd-enroll seems to work better but all I get from fprintd-verify then is "verify-no-match (done)"

Do I need a testing branch of something or am I just doing something wrong?

 

I don't remember a lot of details but I remember the human race ends up allying itself with a seemingly friendly alien race that agrees to give humanity advanced medicine and technology, but with the goal of slowly wiping out humanity through slowly making the species sterile. It follows a couple that is trying to conceive but has so far been unable to and the overlords keep reassuring them thR everything is fine just keep trying but the woman does digging and figures out what is happening but it's already too late. I think there is a time travel story where humanity is prevented from either coming into contact with the aliens in the first place or is warned away from making the deal.

Thank you thank you, it's driving me crazy.
