Your parent comment meant short-term, "screw you poors, I've got $7000 cash, so buying it ALL" hoarders, who went in with bad faith motives of reselling/gouging and/or returning excess stock when the run has complet

> The case could be made that you should go out because you don't believe the disease is as bad as stated, or that you should stay home because it is. While I agree with your last sentiment, the scientific facts don't care abou

Yes. It's explicitly dangerous to everyone for anyone non-essential to congregate. This virus is no joke. Look at Italy, where people did things like you suggest, and now doctors are literally having to decide who lives and who dies.

People like you are going to get people like your parents and grandparents killed.

> so far. Those words are doing a lot of work. If we densely-packed city folk don't work extra-hard to contain this, it's going to absolutely raze our health, and other support systems.

Impatience and one-stop-shopping are compelling motivators.

Meanwhile, as a correlation of their caprice, my @fiveobot is still going strong after tweeting hourly for going-on-three years.

I'm 100% remote, and on day 3 of employment, my job drop-shipped me 2x 1440p 27" monitors that my 2019 15" MBP powers just fine.

Funnily enough, the Hawaiian time zone is an hour past the single Alaskan one is still further East than some of the Aleutian islands.

Only 50? The country spans almost 110° longitude, from West Quoddy Head lighthouse in Maine (66 degrees 57 minutes west.) to Cape Wrangell on Attu Island, Alaska (172 degrees 27 minutes east.) That's nearly 1/3 of the globe. So wh

13:00:00.00Z means the same moment wherever you are on (or off) the planet. Does that help it make sense?

by jachee 7y ago
Time is relative, and "noon" is irrelevant. UTC everywhere is optimal and ideal.

Not to mention energy conscious for when you're not attached to the grid.

Please don't use code blocks for quoting. (Unless you also hard-wrap the quote at ~50 columns. The blocks themselves don't wrap long lines but rather are horizontal-scrolling, cut off, and annoying.)

It's about playing by ear. Play only the first seven notes of a scale, and you'll likely find that your ear really wants that 8th tone to resolve it.

Not to mention the labor of assembly and integration, testing, and QC. DIY is free only if your time is worth nothing.

Is it within the realm of possibility to use this with a Rift S?

Say iMessage, for example?

Agreed. It's even fully functional on my 3-versions-out-of-date old iPad.

That could be alleviated by having the owner provide proof that they live on the property they own, and then granting them an exemption. Half-exemptions for rent-seekers who can prove 90%+ occupancy.

Not many religions associated with nicotine, though. Unless one were to count the Juul cult.

Yes, but what the poster above describes as "locking you out of group messages" sounds like a member of an all-iMessage group switching to android, and the group message continuing on in iMessages-only, rather than being restarted
