Your definition of the meter leaves out the most interesting part. Yes, it was 1,000, 000th the distance of the equator to the North Pole, but how far is that? That wasn’t known accurately in the 18th Century. So, two Frenchmen, Delambre and Mechain conducted the longest meridian survey every attempted. They also did so while half of Europe was at war with one another. It was an amazingly dangerous endeavor. There is also significant evidence they totally flubbed and hand-waived their results. So, although their science ended up being questioned, the process and method was accepted and the Meter was defined.

Stables?

It would take away a lot of the zing… But it’s cooking, you do you!

Seems like you could use a kick start for something different. Let me suggest Alabama White Sauce. Tangy, a little heat, and some lip sweat.

Alabama White BBQ Sauce: 1 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

1 tablespoon prepared horseradish

1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Salt

Ukraine MOD has a program in place that databases every cluster munition fire mission. Demining eastern Ukraine is going to be a years long effort. Any unexpended ordinance will go into that effort. Countries that gave up cluster munitions have had their rose tinted glasses on too long and assumed war would be limited to foreign battlefields and not their back yards.

I guess this missed this. https://crooksandliars.com/2023/06/sick-days-biden-administration-gets-it

This is the most skin crawling game in the thread. In VR it’s super creepy, the voices are just downright harrowing.

Pop is my new go to distro. Even without their own DE, the tweaks to gnome are really well considered and I don’t spend an hour unfucking the default environment.

No. If it’s sticking you’re generally cooking too cool. Fast sear followed by a slower roast.

Which was the style at the time..

Get it right, Philistine :p

Social media is supposed to be the digital commons. Without a dislike button, then the media cannot be a commons. You go to the town square and start spouting offensive bullshit you’re going to get the proverbial rotten tomatoes thrown at you, mockery, and getting shunned.

With only having a like button, Twitter amplifies the message of bad actors and encourages rage responses. That’s the point though isn’t it? Engagement metrics to sell rage at a discount instead of the whole normal population buying a post with dislikes and moving on.

Correct, I got my account invite from The Screensavers show with Kevin Rose. They were giving them out randomly to viewers.

I snorted audibly on that one.

Typically, volcanic eruptions have a cooling effect. One of the principle emissions is sulfur dioxide which reflects high frequency solar energy (green house gases absorb and convert that same radiation into longer wave energy which excites atmospheric gases).

Too many comments commenting on Ivanka’s perceived attractiveness…the point is this cretin sexualizes his own daughter. Show me a father who does that who isn’t a disgusting pile of shit that should be exiled to a swamp. These people see women as objects, not people with agency.

Wow. I want that so bad. And the fact you use Dukes tells me you are a chef of refined taste. I need to stop by my butcher and see if he has chicken skins, I never stopped to consider what they do with those to sell the abomination of skinless, boneless breasts.

And that’s when you really get good at breaking shit.

Wich is precisely the point of this sham of a law. I think Republicans know that they are decades away from revoking no-fault divorce, but they can erode a woman’s ability to leave an unhappy marriage. This, abortion bans, school choice, it’s all about turning the clock back before women’s lib, ERA, etc.

On Boost for Reddit my home feed is only subreddits I’ve subscribed to. On the desktop and official app, it’s that new bastardized version of my subscribed subreddits and all.

I could save searches, I felt like it allowed me to view Reddit the way I wanted to view it. I don’t want to see half of the meme lords on all in my home feed.
