For framing a house a nail is absolutely better. As the house settles, wood shrinks, and the frame flexes in storms or quakes the nails allow the wood to move instead of causing things to warp and break.

But being that deep would compound the square-cube problem.

USGS uses imperial for a ton of publications. As a geographer, I had to get pretty comfortable with both standards.

chiliedogg,

And had the same zero as Kelvin.

chiliedogg,

Ted Lasso and Shrinking are both made by Bill Lawrence, who also made Spin City, Scrubs, and Cougar Town.

It’s not Apple that makes the shows good.

Except when you’ve got Microsoft making a deal with Seagate to have proprietary expansions at 150 dollars a TB.

You guys still get rain?

Color film also requires more light. By making all elements of the film sensitive to all visible light, your essentially triple it’s sensitivity to light vs color.

chiliedogg,

And that’s why people use mouse jigglers and keep their computers unlocked 24/7.

chiliedogg,

We absolutely genetically modified pretty much all of our food. We just did it by selective breeding.

The only difference with modern GMO is we’ve learned to do it directly much faster. We don’t need a random mutation to add a trait anymore.

I miss reddit every day. The niche communities were large enough there to have content.

I said I’d leave at the end of June if they went through with the API changes bc and I did. But of they reversed course today I’d absolutely go back instantly.

chiliedogg,

How do you lose a pillow? It’s not a pen or contact lens - it’s a pretty bulky thing that generally stays in one area.

chiliedogg,

Just because a company is profitable it doesn’t mean they can’t ask users to pay for a service.

I don’t love Alphabet either, but in their shoes I’d block ad filters too. YouTube is spectacularly expensive to run.

chiliedogg,

Looks like the original image was cropped closer and they used something along the lines of Photoshop’s Content Aware Fill to try and expand the image.

chiliedogg,

Yeah. Despite all the evil things Google does, saying “either pay for our product or watch ads” is kinda reasonable.

I pay for premium and it’s fine. I still run Vanced on my phone because I hate lots of other things about YouTube, but I’m okay with paying for a product I use every day.

chiliedogg,

It sure is nice that everyone gets to live in New York, London, and Washington.

A better solution is to reduce how much people need to travel. Instead of building trillion-dollartransit systems so people can to to the office we should be taxing the everloving shit out of office spaces for jobs that can be worked remotely.

chiliedogg,

Needs to be full-justified so that “Year” takes the same space as “Designer.”

chiliedogg,

I work in municipal government, but a LOT of what I do involves working with privileged information. Not my information or the city’s information, but private people and company’s information.

You’re welcome to submit an open records request and I’ll be gladly release what I can. But sometimes information needs to be redacted and kept private for privacy or security reasons.

chiliedogg,

I have one, but don’t use it for gaming.

I do underwater photography and mapping, and I need it for Reality Capture.

He’s referring to the adage that “If everyone you meet is an asshole, you’re the asshole.”

chiliedogg,

I didn’t like pineapple on pizza until a coworker did pineapple and jalapeno.

The sweet/spicy combination was pretty great.

chiliedogg,

Yes, they absolutely do. But it’s the backlash that people see.

The United Methodist Church just had a schism because the bigots were butthurt by being called out, so they went and started their own denomination (Global Methodist) with hatred of gay people as a foundational principle.

chiliedogg,

Rent often is. But since renting doesn’t build credit, lots of us can’t “afford” a house even though we’d actually be saving money paying a mortgage instead of rent.
