Maybe don't use body shaming terms though? That's just lazy, and it's mean to other people, not just the target of the insult.

This election isn't about "which one," it's about voting vs. abstaining.

Duh, just read it back from /dev/random

You will recover the data, you just need to wait long enough.

Same argument against vegetarianism/veganism


we have teeth "designed" or evolved for eating meat, thus we should eat meat.

...we also have brains capable of abstract reasoning, but nevermind that!

If money isn't super tight, and the task at hand isn't super urgent


buy the right tools! Not just for cars, but for most anything.

Perhaps microwaving for significantly longer, at a low power level, would be safer and result in higher success/yield?

I think it has a lot to do with disposition and convenience. I'm lazy, and I don't like to drive if I can help it. But I live near enough to public transportation that we'll spontaneously decide to hop on the subway and grab dinner on the waterfront.

It's not the money that's preventing us from hopping in the car to go to some new beach for dinner, it's the convenience.

I mean...it depends on the job? I go on walks during working hours all the time to clear my head and think about a problem I'm working on. I don't try to hide this from my manager.

Just stick to elements lighter than iron and you'll be fine.

It's funny that the high end (human powered/"analog") bikes tend to actually be pretty good at this. Want to change your $5k+ bike from 11s to 12s? Yep, should be doable


you'll need to replace group set and possibly the rear hub, but it's totally possible.

Upgrade from cable to electronic shifting? Again, totally doable.

Switch from Shimano to SRAM or Campy? Yep, should be possible.

Now, if you crack your carbon frame...well, that's another story.

Kids, this is why dimensional analysis matters.

At 28 years old, it's safe to say Leo doesn't use KDE.

Happy birthday!
