It’s not a lockher though.

Would it be toughim to get togethim with your brothim the potographim?

It comes across kinda No True Scotsman-y. Like, “If you didn’t know you were bi, you were probably just faking”, especially with that emphasis.

Maybe restating to “were you just curious at the time, or did you have experience?” would help?

I would find it a tad odd to refer to a hotdog as simply a sandwich, because we have a more precise and common word for it, but I would understand nonetheless.

Not just because of this debate, but also because when you use the ingredients separately you get weiner sandwiches and hot dog bun sandwiches.

It would be odd to call champagne wine, but still understandable. Same for calling a lava lamp an incandescent light. Actually, this would probably work for lots of genericized tradmarks, like jello, bandaid, dumpster, zamboni, kleenex, zipper, velcro, and so on.

Everyone in this thread is ignoring a lot, mostly that vastly different preparation methods van make the same structure, and the same method vastly different structures. Like pasta, which category you get depends on exactly what kind you have.

At this point, it’s pretty hard to find a natural opinion on hotdogs as sandwiches sunce everyone has heard of the great sandwich debate, but I don’t think it’s a big leap. I think calling a hamburger a sandwich is about as weird, for example.

I’m pretty sure CTRL+ALT+DEL used to be the task manager shortcut, but around 7 or 8 a menu was added with logout and shutdown options. I don’t know how long CTRL+SHIFT+ESC has been a thing, but it’s an effective replacement (and easier to press with one hand :] ).

Ah, yes, I’d love to disable core components of windows that are using 100% disk. I’d loose the pointer? Great! Explorer? Fantastic! The file indexer? I didn’t need files anyway!

A normal winter started in October, maybe mid November, not early January. This was my first brown christmas, and that worries me.

Smack in the middle of Canada, winters colder than Alaska, summers nearly as warm as Hawai’i. We already get very little rain, and like the rest of the Great Plains, we’re on track to being a desert (temperate in our case). We already lost most of our topsoil in the dirty 30s, and there’s plenty of sand just below in the glacial till.

I’d rather that not happen.

Nah, just your average citiot, though I know a few who worked in PA.

Eh, I used to think this too, but TikTok isn’t closely associated with chinese companies, any more than TakeTwo or anything made in Shenzhen.

I still abhor it for what it is though, alongside YTShorts.

Kinda sounds like they require a link to your finances, so you can’t do anonymous online purchases.

Not really. Especially after the first couple results, it’s clueless.

Yup, none of Colorado’s 10 votes will be for Trump. Colorado has a winner-take-all method, so even if there are alternate candidates, the difference will probably fracture the republican vote and loose any chance of any votes.

I wonder if a user agent switcher would be enough to fool them, or if they’re actually using an exclusive library or something.

Don’t forget that the “back” behavior in “forum” channels actually goes back to the forum now, instead of opening the channel list!

Fixed a major PITA.

I think his comment is reading way way too much into it. The comic is basically saying that “left” is willing to question authority, while “right” takes it as gospel and asks for more.

There’s also the claim that criticising weath disparity while living in a very weath-centric system is somehow an endorsement of that weath-centric system.

Guy seems to just want to dump on the idea of left, so I’ll leave a downvote and let him dump in peace.

Maybe. Seeing some of the follow up commonts, it feels more like a no true scotsman fallacy.

“You can’t be left without being extreme left” “the left doesn’t do moderate left things!” “Thinking about money proves you aren’t left!”

As if wanting anything less than a money-free socialist utopia yesterday isn’t left enough.

There are multiple translations of the bible. Anything but the original Hebrew is a translation after all.

TL;DR: Ravening seems common in the King James Version and some of it’s derivatives, while Ravenous is common in more modern translations, even the strictly literal ones.

From Bible Gateway:

  • KJ21, ASV, BRG, DARBY, DRA, GNV, JUB, KJV, AKJV, NMB, RGT, WEB, YLT say ravening (13)
  • AMP, DLNT, EHV, ESV, ESVUK, EXB*, LSB, LEB, MEV, MOUNCE, NABRE, NASB, NASB1995, NCB, NKJV, NRSVA, NRSVACE, NRSVCE, NRSVUE, OJB, RSV, RSVCE, & TLV say ravenous (22)
  • AMPC says devouring (1)
  • CSB & HCSB say ravaging (2)
  • CEB, EXB*, GW, NOG, & NLT say vicious (4)
  • CJB, NIRV, NLV, NTFE, & VOICE say hungry (5)
  • CEV says “wolves who have come to attack you” (1)
  • ERV & ICB say “really dangerous like wolves” (2)
  • EASY says “like hungry wild dogs” (1)
  • EXB says “dangerous like wolves [underneath/inwardly they are ravenous/vicious/ferocious wolves]” (1, only one to say vicious)
  • GNT says wild (1)
  • ISV says savage (1)
  • PHILLIPS says greedy (1)
  • TLB says “wolves and will tear you apart” (1)
  • MSG gets rid of the metaphor entirely (1?)
  • NCV, EXB* say dangerous (1)
  • NET says voracious (1)
  • NIV, NIVUK, EXB* say ferocious (1)
  • WE says “wolves, bad animals that kill sheep” (1)
  • WYC says “wolves of raven” (1)

That’s 13 which say ravening, 22 that say ravenous, and 27 that say something else.


Lets ignore the frivolous rewritings and retranslations and go with popular books. This list is biased toward new versions because it’s partly based on bestselling versions, but if you have readership data, I’d love to see it! In no particular order: The New International Version (NIV), the King James Version (KJV), the New Living Translation (NLT), the Common English Bible (CEB), the New American Standard Bible (NASB), the New English Translation (NET), the New Revized Standard Version (NRSV), and the English Standard Version (ESV).

  • NIV: Ferocious
  • KJV: Ravening
  • NLT & CEB: Vicious
  • NASB & NRSV & ESV: Ravenous
  • NET: Voracious

King James seems alone with Ravening, but I know many people are King James only, so that’s pretty common. New International Version not being either Ravening or Ravenous surprised me, but there you go. Ravenous is definitely common in modern versions, including the NASB which seems to be very literal.

After closing a dozen left over from looking up various topics over the last few days, 164 tabs, some of which are probably 5 years old. I swear I’ll look at them someday!
