Any soup is cool enough to eat on a first date. If your date gives you crap about something as inconsequential as what kind of soup you’re eating, your date should be discarded at your earliest convenience, because they have shown themselves to be an opinionated twat that will bitch about things that don’t matter in the slightest.
Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!
when there’s not a recognised disability involved but just health issue/s (which could be “disabling”).
From the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, in regards to the ADA:
Under the ADA , you have a disability if you have a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity.
Essentially, if you are disabled, you have a disability, whether recognized or not. If you are not disabled, then you do not have a disability.
Under this definition, something like asthma, which is fairly common, can be a disability when it comes to strenuous activities, but isn’t something that is immediately obvious to someone just passing on the street.
As far as it being ablist to assume that someone not showing signs of disability isn’t disabled? No, that’s silly. Not believing them if they tell you they can’t run a mile because they have asthma? Still no, that’s skepticism.
Ablism would be something like planning a company outing, and choosing the location up a tall, steep hill when other options were available, specifically because you don’t like the fact that your coworker has asthma.
This guy is an idiot. I don’t have anything against LGBTQ people, but when it comes to medical stuff, you’re biologically male or female, because it matters for the sorts of health risks you might be susceptible to.
Period flow can happen without warning, and even if there is a warning, it’s not usually something that girls are comfortable enough with to want to announce the reason in front of a classroom.
I started cradling him when he was just old enough to be adopted. Every time we crossed paths, I would say “Scoop!”, scoop him up with a hand under his chest, roll him over backwards with my other hand on his butt, and lay him down on my arm like that. Then I’d scratch his tummy and give him kisses, then let him go after a little bit.
I taught my cat how to speak. Now he doesn’t shut up.
I also “taught” him to tolerate being cradled on his back like a baby.
For SSD’s, it’s 100% a logical table, because data is stored all over the place for load balancing purposes, so it already uses a logical table to keep track of what each block is for at any given point in time.
For HDD’s, historically they were physically separated, and they mostly are still, but there’s still a logical table, and there’s no reason the logical table can’t say “Blocks 0 through 1234 and 2000 are part of partition 1” if you have something somewhere else that you want on that partition.
I think the idea comes from “HDD slow,” as he was impressed with the speed it was happening at, especially if you think of it as requiring data to be moved around on the disk. It’s not really intuitive to think of it as just a table on the disk somewhere that says which regions belong to which partition, and having those regions be anywhere on the disk.
I think it’s mostly an unintended benefit. These scams are usually run out of countries with English as a second language, so you get some grammatical errors in translation. It does increase the conversion rate, though, so they don’t bother spending extra money getting a native English speaker to copy edit.
Make sure your litter box is clean, and that your cat thinks it’s clean. Cats want to be able to bury their waste, and if there’s too much in the box for the cat’s liking, they’ll go somewhere else, and it’s often right outside the box if there isn’t something else they could use. It’s important to understand that it’s the cat’s opinion that matters here, not yours: you may need to scoop it every day, even if there’s only a little in it.
You may also need to move the litter box and clean the previous area, including and most importantly the place outside the litter box that gets used. Use vinegar if you can: it has a strong smell that cats don’t like, but it won’t hurt them like bleach can. Lemon juice works well for this, also. What this will do is make sure that this area doesn’t smell like a place they have used as a litter box before.
While I agree with this mostly (permanent is probably too long, maybe X months after you pay for the worker’s medical bills), that wouldn’t have helped in this instance, since it was a stray dog.
The terms for “clockwise” and “Counterclockwise” originated long before clocks. Clockwise was originally called “Sunwise” and followed the movement of the shadow around a sundial.
Counterclockwise was “widdershins”, from a Middle Low German phrase meaning “against the way.”
We don’t use “earthwise” because from our perspective, the earth doesn’t rotate.
Not really, the spices are different. Chai has more bite, pumpkin spice is more of a mellow warmth. It’s difficult to describe without using American terms, because it’s the spice blend we use for pumpkin pie. If you’ve ever had one of those, then you’ll have a good idea of what to expect out of the drink.
There’s a few reasons.
The biggest reason is that bittorrent doesn’t download segments in order. YouTube is a video streaming service, so the video will stop playing after segment 5 if you don’t have segment 6, regardless of how many segments you actually have. This is a user experience issue, and it would basically make YouTube unusable for the current use cases.
Peer to peer file sharing, as you might expect, means that other end users are providing the videos, not the company. This means that the company cannot guarantee transfer speed, file completeness, or even that the file is the right file. This may end up causing them some legal trouble in the platform current state.
Peer to peer also means that the videos need to be stored in multiple locations, with multiple copies, and Joe Schmo doesn’t have a datacenter in his basement. There will end up being a limit to how much content can be stored, and things that people don’t watch simply won’t be stored anywhere, so you wouldn’t be able to look up that meme video you liked 14 years ago.
It’s just not a good way of providing data as a service to a customer. It’s an alternative for smaller sites that can’t afford, or don’t want the paper trail of, appropriate data server sizes.
This whole incel concept confuses me. Are you telling me there are hordes of dudes out there so unlikable that they can’t even pay a hooker for a handy?
That’s what it appears to be. This is supported somewhat by the term “moonwise” not having a lot of historical usage, leading me to believe that it came along much later by someone who wanted a related antonym.
The only bit about the moon that seems to travel right to left are it’s phase changes, and even that is because we’re outside the rotation and watching along it’s horizontal plane. You’ll see the same thing with anything spinning clockwise in front of you: the closer edge goes right to left, the farther edge goes left to right.
It’s been very difficult to find an answer for this, and I suspect it’s because most of the southern hemisphere is water, and most of the rest of it was colonised by people from the northern hemisphere. As of right now, I couldnt say if there simply weren’t words for that kind of rotational motion or if my google-fu simply isn’t strong enough.
The best answer I’ve been able to find is from Indonesia, which is equatorial. The word “sunwise” translates into a phrase “from left to right” via Google Translate, but that may just be an artifact of machine translation.
That made me curious, so I tried to find a pre-clock synonym in Indonesian. The best answer I have is by translating “Sunwise”, which became “dr kiri ke kanan” or “from left to right.”
Which make sense, if something is going clockwise around you, that’s what you’d see. No idea if that was a real phrase or an artifact of machine translation, though.
Definitely not on copyright grounds, since almost all state flags (except Georgia, Mississippi, and soon to be Utah) are old enough to have entered the public domain.
