Pronouns
  • I'm curious when and where "singular they" was taught as incorrect. Coming from the Midwest in the 80s (not exactly a liberal or forward thinking place), I was taught in no uncertain terms that singular they was appropriate in many circumstances. And my teacher was old as hell, so her education on the matter probably dated to around WW2.

  • Don't care what the reason is.
  • Have you never been approached by a weird dude at a gas station who is selling "fresh" meat out of a cooler in the trunk of his car?

    We live in very different places. (Not sarcasm, this has happened to me about a dozen times)

  • I have a IBM eServer xSeries 346, does anyone has experience with the ServeRaid-7k, to create a RAID array? Also, you can ask me anything about this 2005 beast!
  • For a non-pizza comment: I've been out of the hardware game for awhile, but the last time I had to set one of these up for RAID, the paper manual (which can probably be found digitally) was helpful. I also vaguely recall RAID 5 either having issues or being unavailable.

  • Why stand in line to board an airplane?
  • The gate crew often gets graded on how quickly they complete boarding, so don't be surprised when your plane's "full" overhead compartments are half empty. Stupid job metrics strike again.

  • I forget every time that a roll comes up
  • Remembering things is the primary purpose of the check, but sometimes how you're applying it might require an alternative skill check to make sense. Here are some examples (from https://rpgbot.net/dnd5/characters/impractical-skill-checks/ ):

    Wisdom – Consoling and counselling a creature through a crisis of faith could be done with a Wisdom (Religion) check.
    
    Charisma – Proselytizing for a faith makes more sense as a Charisma (Religion) check than a Charisma (Persuasion) check.
    
  • Do i need to install a driver?
  • Yeah, definitely don't just stick something in, use protection. If you want to use an unknown public charge, there are USB data blocker adapters you can buy.

    You get slow charging (since the devices can't negotiate), but it's better than an infection.

  • A new alternative to the "bro explaining" meme

    Perhaps it's just me, but these have the exact same energy.

    The second image details are as follows.

    Title: Go To Your Room Little Brother!

    Description: Two great horned owlets interact with one another in Tierra Verde, west- central Florida.
