Pulptastic,

Until he finds the top 1% of rattatas.

Pulptastic,

What am I looking at here? It’s just a wall

Pulptastic,

Sparkling water ftw. Do you have a CO2 tank to carbonate?

Pulptastic,

I feel like these alignment jokes are by definition a stretch. There’s always a couple good ones, some OK ones, and some terrible ones. The terrible ones ruin the whole thing for me. It would be better to have a reduced set or find another way to present the good ones I think.

I disagree. Without explicit direction on OOO we have to follow the operators in order.

The parentheses go first. 1+2=3

Then we have 6 ÷2 ×3

Without parentheses around (2×3) we can’t do that first. So OOO would be left to right. 9.

In other words, as an engineer with half a PhD, I don’t buy strong juxtaposition. That sounds more like laziness than math.

Pulptastic,

Average touched up photos of white people. Why does she have spaghetti O’s stain around her mouth?

Pulptastic,

Xart

Pulptastic,

You’d be surprised what I fit in my Yaris hatchback

Pulptastic,

There’s this really cool shorthand where you drop the year because it seldom changes. It’s called MM-DD

Pulptastic,

I really want American cheese that is not wrapped in plastic. Kraft makes it but it costs more than double the plastic wrapped stuff. I’ve paid that price when times were plenty but they are no more.

Pulptastic,

Franco was a nut. He did put out some nice android kernel mods though.

Pulptastic,

Who said she’s a mechanical engineer?

Pulptastic, (edited )

F has that too. Below 0, f it’s cold. Above 100, f it’s hot. 0-25 winter sports baby, 25-50 bleh it’s wet and nasty, 50-75 chefs kiss, 75-100 let’s hit the beach.

Pulptastic,

I’m a metals engineer. I design and monitor processes to make metals with the right properties for a given application. That means lots of testing to prove it was done right, and testing usually means breaking shit to make sure it has enough strength and ductility.

It has pros and cons. The money is good and demand is higher than supply so it is pretty easy to find a good job, but it is a niche field so I have to go where the work is and aw(mm usually they put these places in the middle of nowhere in shitty republican states that have great corporate tax policies. It is also pretty much exclusively on-site work which means I have very limited choices of where I live.

I am a polymath and am good at lots of mathy sciencey things, I’m hindsight I probably would have picked something that allows for remote work. TBF remote work wasn’t much of a thing in 1995 when I chose this field but I wish now that I could work remotely.

All that said it is a good time and has treated me well so far.

Pulptastic,

Minnesoter eh

Pulptastic,

That NIN shirt was enough for me to be into it

Pulptastic,

My favorite class in grad school. Here, let’s derive the empirical laws of thermodynamics from first principles based on random movement of atoms.

Pulptastic,

Some lab equip has proprietary ports that would need reverse engineering to make and use a USB adapter.

Pulptastic,

The left is Rotten Tomatoes which I usually my go-to. The relative % of critic and user ratings let me know what. Getting into. If both are high it’s a well made blockbuster, critic high user low is thought provoking, critic low user high is the Walmart lowest denominator slapstick, action, or romcom, and both low is trash like Freddie Got Fingered or The Room.

The other is Letterboxd, a social movie review platform, that I’ve never used but I can imagine it would make my peenus hort.

Pulptastic,

The Hitler channel.

Pulptastic,

That’s tough to swallow. Philosophy almost belongs at both ends.

Pulptastic,

MIL specs for steels are very particular in some regards. There’s a reason armor plate is used far beyond the original application.

Pulptastic,

The YouTube said 16 Hz, infrasound. You can see the vibration mode.of the string, super cool.

Pulptastic,

Variation and color. I have the choice.of three minutely different collars and it can be black, blue, or gray. I want tangerine, asymmetric, with an ascot.

Pulptastic,

The best thing you can eat is nothing. Take a 3 day water only fast. Maybe 4 days, start before your trip to get out all the poop ahead of time.
