You’ve got þat backwards… Þorne is þe unvoiced letter, as in þem or boþ, whereas eð is þe voiced, as in faðer.

My evangelical school did a “classical education” and made the mistake of actually having some critical thinking after all the indoctrination. I’m a pagan leftist transgender homosexual now.

He didn’t have a proper sniper with a good scope, it was just, reportedly, an “AR-15 style rifle.” In which case, good shot. Very good shot. That’s a long ways, and proper sniper equipment is hard to get and harder to conceal.

Edit: I had no clue how close this actually was, at the time of writing the details hadn’t been released. 150 yards… yeah even I could make that shot. How do you miss that…

Yeah, I instinctively tried to open mine with vinyl gloves on once and immediately thought “I’m dumb, gotta take these gloves off first.” That was a good shock when it actually worked first try, much confusion…

Technology? Who uses technology in the military?

Archaic, painstaking methods of uniform maintainence build discipline. Why would this change even in a thousand years?

This has got to be such a pain to sew when you rank up…

Interesting. We have jars of smucker’s jellies here in America too, but it’s the homogenous seedless kind as described above, same stuff that’s in the squeeze bottle. We don’t really call it “seedless preserves” here though, that’s just implied with jelly. I might call the heterogeneous kind you described “jam” or “preserves” instead of jelly, but that distinction might be a local thing.

Is this how you get Heimdal? (mythologically “the Son of 9 mothers”)

This is the way.

Jigga deez nuts!

Valid, but I do believe you’re overthinking a forced star wars pun…

Exactly. The fallacy of undistributed middle is strong with this OP…

All stupid people are no-sayers. (DU) You are a no-sayer. (DU) Therefore you are a stupid person. (DU) AAA syllogism - invalid due to above fallacy.

“The middle term must be distributed at least once.”

All !do is do not (!do); all do is do. [law of non-contradiction]. All try = do or !do [succeeds or fails, proven by observation]

Therefore, no try != Not (do or !do)

Therefore try is a useless term / there is no distinct “try” that is neither do nor do not.

One must do or do not; there is no try.

Quod Erat Demonstrandum

Evaporation isn’t the breakdown of 2(H2O) --> 2(H2) + O2 (hydrogen and oxygen) like electrolysis… It’s just water molecules overcoming the intermolecular force and not wanting to be liquid anymore, H2O(l) --> H2O(g), still just water and sadly no good as a fuel.

I’ve been in exactly the same situation but I’m an only child… Sorry you had to go through that too… I hope you’re doing ok.

Young folk who have lost hours of progress in robotics programming projects too… Once is enough to learn your lesson. The inevitable second time is traumatizing. By the third time, you hit Ctrl+s five times after every paragraph.

I find the opposite to be true for me, but I’m the type that will sit down and read a textbook for entertainment as well. Purely informative podcasts, not entertainment etc. I’ve learned a lot of philosophy and ancient history via Spotify actually, it’s a very useful medium for information access, for those so inclined.

Golden retrievers can swim for over 40 minutes without tiring - they were originally bred to retrieve shot waterfowl from the middle of lakes. It’s still absolutely a good idea to get a life vest, but even in a lake like this the doggo should be ok.
