In the UK it’s got to be the City of London. Famous for being an ancient city established by the Romans and awash with history, now one of the world’s biggest financial centers with a modern skyline of famously distinctive skyscrapers. It’s home to some world-famous landmarks like Saint Paul’s Cathedral and Tower Bridge, and has a population of about 10,000.

The City of London is not to be confused with London, London, London or London.

We’re talking about Southern US pronunciation so much that I read your comment from “do I” onwards as if it was being spoken like a Southern Belle.

I say “all of y’all” and make a point to really emphasize the “'”.

Didn’t you hear? All Arabs in Lebanon are Hezbollah.

Or they’re sheltering Hezbollah, which is as bad as being Hezbollah.

Or they know someone who is sheltering Hezbollah, which is as bad as sheltering Hezbollah.

Or they live near someone who knows someone who is sheltering Hezbollah, which is as bad as knowing someone who is sheltering Hezbollah.

And so on.

Do you know which Jack is your favourite? You should have a contest determine your favourite Jack. A Jack-Off, if you will.

JFC. I knew that show was bad, but I honestly feel like I’m thicker from having watched that. You can’t just post shit like that without warning.

I don’t know why but I thought they were some special inaccessible computers.

It’s their marketing. Marketing, marketing, bullshit and marketing. Macs get viruses, Macs have vulnerabilities, Macs crash. Doesn’t matter how much their indoctrinated fans might claim otherwise, Macs are just weird PCs. In that context, their refusal to allow their owners to control them is all the more jarring and makes owning the older models like you mentioned all the more sensible.

Known as the Praxis Effect amongst movie nerds or, in the Homestar Runner universe, “those blast-wavey Saturn rings that have become so popular lately.”

“You’re about two kilometers outside the anomaly.”

“Chuck.”

“I’m sorry, what?”

“The anomaly. I named the anomaly ‘Chuck’.”

“NEVER name the anomalies. That’s how you get hurt.”

This is really niche, but most organisations have a Microsoft Active Directory, or equivalent, that tracks users, their credentials, and their permissions. The sign of a bad AD admin: permissions directly applied to user objects without any intermediary objects or abstraction in AD.

Obviously not meant to be taken literally. It refers to all manufacturers of dairy products.

Fully dressed for WFH. Nude for in-office. Nude with shoes on for client meeting (in-office or WFH).

The secret to keeping water hot is minimising surface area and, of course, insulation. If you want instant hot water you can actually buy electric hot water tanks with, say, 10-15L capacities that go under the sink so the hot water only needs to travel the 50cm or so. Very cheap and much more simple than instant heaters.

…“Outside Pants”? I feel like this might be the real tip here. Please, explain.

You should invest. Nothing gets you dry better than a good Batman.
