Standing by your bed while you’re asleep and berating you isn’t manipulative?
Nah, to needs to leave, now. No sense hanging around to see what this escalates to. Not worth putting in the effort for someone who’s demonstrated they need to grow up.

Her standing by your bed and behaving like that is childish and she’s demonstrating manipulative behaviour.
You question the value? Really? Are you the doctor, because that’s exactly what he said.
Seems like they can be rather effective, which is why every power, ever, throughout history, has had them.
Questioning the cost to the individuals, sure, but their value to a given power?
Now if you want to make a philosophical debate about them, sure, there’s one to be had.
Doesn’t look like it works with other calendar systems yet?
Currently, Notion Calendar integrates and syncs with Google Calendar accounts. Adding support for other calendar providers such as Outlook and iCloud is on our roadmap.
Also it only works with a Notion account? It gives me no other options - just “Login to your Notion account”.
I wouldn’t call Thunderbird “decent”, I’d call it nominally functional.
Performance is terrible, lots of lags, etc. And this on a fairly new, recently rebuilt, 16gb Windows LTSC laptop (so no bloat).
And then there’s the UI stuff - monochromatic so hard to tell where one window/tab starts/ends, etc.
Laugh tracks were extensively used long before the Fran Drescher thing though?
Nearly every show I watched from the 60’s to the early 80’s used them. It was noticeable when there wasn’t a laugh track.
Look into your municipality’s recycling process, see how it’s done, what the inputs are, what the total energy use is, etc, etc.
I’d bet a year’s salary it’s far less effective (if at all) than most people think.
“Recycle” was/is a marketing grift developed by the oil industry in the 70’s. It largely isn’t effective.
As someone else mentioned, aluminum (and steel) are very recyclable, and are already extensively recycled in manufacturing (don’t forget that reusing scrap within a factory is considered recycling).
Everything else largely isn’t, yet. Glass is very recyclable, but the transport costs are exorbitant, so I suspect it’s a negative for things like drink bottles, while the energy costs on most plastic recycling makes it not yet viable, from what I’ve read.
Someday, just not today.
If the 3 R’s, Reduce is the one that truly makes a difference.
There were handheld electronic card game players in the 80’s.
You’d be surprised how many phone calls took place at that time.
Mayne talking about a show, or chatting someone up, etc. You were bored, so a phone was great.
Readers Digest contained multiple books in one volume
Run it in a VM, then get the NoCD from gamecopyworld?
(Not sure if that’s an option for securom)
This is what it’s about, isn’t it? 😆
Hahahaha, dammit, I admit that’s funny
Ah, yea, that seems more like something that wasn’t intended for breaks.
Definitely disruptive.
Oxygen has an interesting plot, similar, but not it.
I think the prison angle in this film wasn’t the main premise. Just how a technology was used.
There was an eye drop that delivered a drug or something that could…do something to your brain.
Uggh, wish I could remember more.
Similar style, but that was a mini-series (for lack of a better description).
This was a movie (IIRC), and she was held in a prison in her mind (so she thought), I can’t remember the details. Futuristic, but not very far into the future.
There was another movie around this idea very recently, maybe a couple years ago. Can’t remember the name though.
Young woman in isolation, think she helped create the system, maybe was on Netflix like 4 years ago?
I don’t mind those breaks… It feels like going to the next chapter in a book.
But actual ads, yea, not for a service that costs.
Though this whole thing is funny - they collect even more user data than they did with cable or broadcast, and now want to show you ads too.
Can’t wait to finish my media server setup.
Thanks for the thoughtful reply.
I’ve heard many times that revolvers or semi-auto have less recoil than the other, hence the question about slide mass/energy, as the only element I could see being different which could possibly explain why people hold this opinion.
Do you know of any actual metrics/tests done that show this clearly? Or is it just a perception issue?
(And yea, we’d have to agree on a definition of what we’re measuring/comparing). Do any gun magazines run proper tests occasionally to make comparisons?
I admit my physics classes were a long time ago, but at first glance it seems felt recoil would only be marginally different between a revolver and a pistol using the same round. If anything, I’d expect the revolver to have a greater felt recoil, given the mechanics of a pistol… But I could very well be wrong.
So a mix of the Matrix and They Live?
