In my part of Canada “broken or knocked out teeth” doesn’t count without something else accompanying it (pain, bleeding, infection.) Even then, first line treatment is pharmaceuticals and it’s only an emergency worthy of care if those don’t work. I know because I am sitting here with a broken tooth packed with Ortho…

I can’t wait to check this game out but I do worry I won’t make it past the turn based nature of the game. My introduction to strategy games was thousands of hours of Age of Empires and its sequels and I’ve always preferred real-time game play... Here’s hoping I can get in to this TBS unlike all the others before...

Gotta mention Cyberpunk 2020 and the upcoming Cyberpunk Red (“Jumpstart” kit currently available.) Not only a great game but the rule books are an amazing read... An excerpt:

It’s unknown exactly where it started; However, one hypothesis is that it originated in Kansas. One inconclusive study did find evidence against the Kansas hypothesis but still showed strong indicators of a North American origin. (The origins of the great pandemic - Evolution, Medicine, and Public Health, Volume 2019,…

Thanks for this article.

In the Canadian province I live in (SK) we’re an anomaly and heterosexual contact has been higher than homosexual male contact within new cases for over a decade. It’s partly down to injection drug use being the top factor (65-80% depending on the year) with injection drug users passing it to opposite sex partners.…

I always see your post Thursday morning with comments from people who have seen it as well. Where are you watching Picard? It doesn’t air for like another 12 hours where I am.

There is a similar issue with the domain DoNoReply.com which is owned by a random guy. Lots of people test email with something@donotreply.com or use it to send email and if he hooks up a catch-all mail server he can intercept lots of valuable information.

No dyslexia here, only diagnosis is ADHD-C. 

I’ve always been an abstract problem solver and I actually have to work backwards to articulate how I arrive at a solution.

I wouldn’t say I “hear” a voice in my head but I generally think in words. There’s a dialogue and it’s in words and sentences often but it’s not auditory. It’s more akin to reading something... The words are there and being processed in order but I don’t associate a particular voice, not even my own, with them.

I think the only problem with that would be the storage longevity. Once opened pop/soda will stay carbonated for 3-5 days if refrigerated. The “growler” model, to borrow from beer, would mean the bottle is “opened” when you buy it. I would think that would mean more frequent trips to the grocery story or less product…

I also have a mini-speech that runs through my head every time I see someone in a giant puffer coat when it’s only, like, 45-50 degrees out. (WHY? You are only making it worse for yourself when it’s actually cold out, save the Canada Goose until then. A light coat or heavy jacket in 45-degree weather is FINE.)

There’s a chain of gyms where I live with monthly fees ranging from CAD$35-50/mo depending on contract length. That is compared to most of the other gyms which are in the CAD$20/mo range. Now, paying double doesn’t get you much in the way of extra amenities, but they’re never busy.

I’d like to know what “internal subnet layout” is supposed to mean. It sounds really important but when I think about it, it just means 192.168.1.0/24 yes? Pretty sure that would be in the first three guesses.

you need to change your password and update your security options immediately so that no one can break into your account using leaked info. (You might also want to manually log out of your account and log back in, and make sure you disable and reenable any connected services, if applicable.)

Another article said she added code to the internal copy of Chrome used on corporate machines. Not only is that by itself probably a gross violation of security policies (and she was a security engineer) but I highly doubt InfoSec personnel deploy production code as part of their responsibilities. It’s far more likely…

On the blatantly evil Church... You need to realize that the author, Philip Pullman, is an outspoken agnostic atheist or more accurately an anti-theist. While not as well known as the likes of Christopher Hitchens or Richard Dawkins he is in their company.

Redheads have been found to require about 20 percent more general anesthesia, and be more resistant to local anesthesia. They have also been found to be more sensitive to pain but actually need lower doses of analgesics than the general population to control it.
