Maybe, but there are plenty of counter examples: “Chicken and egg” “Cookies and cream” “Heaven and Earth” “Chapter and verse” Seems like some phrases just are a certain way, and inverting them sounds wrong just because that’s what we’re use

I was actually only using Premiere because I needed to work on a project that had been edited in Premiere, otherwise I’d use Avid (which is its own brand of hot garbage but that’s a different story). Resolve is not bad, but unfortunately it

The most ridiculous and offensive thing about this was I got this pop-up while actually using Premiere, and it wouldn’t let me continue using the app until I agreed. Since I was in a rush and only using the free trial anyway, I just agree

The detailed employment info might be worth something to identity thieves, but yeah, it’s kind of hard to see what benefit a criminal would derive from knowing what brand of turn signal bulbs you buy.

It's not an oversight. There are very good reasons for it, which are detailed elsewhere in the comments thread.

It does indeed, and as a matter of fact that seems to be the only way I can view it on my phone.

No, MacOS doesn’t do that. `cat Foo` and `cat foo` will both work, but only the first one will tab complete if the file is called `Foo`.

Yeah, ok, give me a call when that wealth has actually been put to good use, not when Sam “Not Even Sorry For Sexually Abusing My Sister” Altman claims it might possibly be in the future.

Shhh, quiet bro. It's okay to be wrong, you know?

No way you were buying 2GB drives in the 2010s, certainly not for $100. 2TB drives, maybe.

“There’s” isn’t considered to be part of the line, but rather the anacrusis. But whatever, you win. The Elements confirmed not a banger.

Arranging a fixed set of lyrics to a fixed tune and doing it brilliantly is pretty genius. Or do you want to argue that Lehrer isn’t a genius? I mean, okay, but do you really want to play intelligence match ‘em with Tom Lehrer? I’m no geniu

I got 100% of the first line. Obviously you don’t know what you’re talking about. Arranging the names of the elements, which Lehrer had no control over, to the tune of Gilbert and Sullivan’s music, which Lehrer had no control over, is not

Not quite understanding why they turn the carp back rather than culling them. The video mentions something about heavy metals and PCBs, but I’m not seeing why that presents a problem as far as, I dunno, euthanizing and tossing them into a l

Yeah, well, I do know the words, and I can confirm that it’s a banger. Antimony, arsenic, aluminum, selenium… Of course, I only know the lyrics due to the fact that I am the very model of a modern major-general…

How the heck could a 500MB game have an 800MB patch? Sounds like someone had no idea what they were doing…

Except I died three-quarters of the way through reading it and had forgotten to save, so I had to start again at the beginning.

> I’m surprised that the BoP is so relaxed about prisoner privacy There’s no such thing, at least not in terms of who is in what prison. Courts determine prison sentences, and since court records are public, prison records are public.

AGP was released several years before PCIe specifically because the bandwidth needs of graphics cards were so high. PCI just couldn’t keep up with the demands of 3D accelerators that were starting to come into widespread use. AGP increased

Ok, since I’m obviously not nerdy and/or cynical enough to get the joke, what exactly is wrong with DNS? None of the links seem to indicate what exactly the problem with it is.

Weird, I remember that game was all over Reddit about 7-8 years ago, then when I remembered it and looked it up a couple years back it was completely dead. No active players in any games, couldn’t seem to find much discussion about it, even

Kubrick’s results were all over the map. He made maybe three great films: Dr. Strangelove Full Metal Jacket A Clockwork Orange A bunch of not bad films: 2001 Lolita Barry Lyndon The Shining Spartacus One real turd of a film: Eyes Wide Shu

It’s not at all the same thing. It’s one thing for an employer to make a direct (or even implied) threat to violate the law directed towards an individual or group of employees. It’s quite another for an employer to express an opinion about

I don’t really care, I just want some vague reassurance that we’re probably not on the verge of launching Skynet…

I’d say it’s not just perception—old age is starting later. My parents aren’t nearly as “old” as their parents were at their current age, or even ten years younger. You might argue that this is recollection bias (i.e. that my grandparents j
