My two favorite malaphors:

• It’s not rocket surgery.
• We will burn that bridge when we get to it.

But the sale numbers are probably much higher nowadays, so it would be feasible to sell games for cheaper. But why would they? People are gonna buy them anyway. Those who won’t will get them on a sale later.

I’ll be waiting for the Tinfoil discount.

I honestly don’t see this changing any time soon because there are biological incentives behind both stereotypes. And, anecdotally, my gf (40+) will pout if in some context I refer to her as a woman, and be like “noooo, I’m a girl… :(”. Semi-jokingly, of course, but only semi.

Stereotypically, women always strive to look as young as possible, so calling one a girl can be seen as a compliment. While men, stereotypically strive to appear mature, hence calling one a boy can be considered an insult.

I remember this joke usually involving eggs. But I suppose that had to be changed, for reasons.

Right? It will probably mostly impact poor people, so who cares!

Just depends on the location. In some places the climate is projected to become milder.

It will likely not make the planet inhospitable to all people, just some. In fact, a bunch of people will benefit from it, like those living in colder climates (at least for some time).

They would just build climate-controlled domes.

Then I misunderstood and was thinking of a different adjustment of the head. The one I was thinking about us when you wedge the screwdriver behind the head and bend it otwards a little for better contact. For that you need a flat tool.

Don’t you use a flathead for that?

“Iela” means “street” in Latvian, so yeah.

Speaking of, my favorite street in Riga is Lielā iela. If for nothing else, then just for how that name sounds. But also “lielā” (feminine of “liels”) means “big”, but Lielā iela (“Big Street”) is tiny, just one car wide (for the most part) and is barely even visible on the map.

That’s how Google always worked, btw. But there is one obvious benefit to showing the original URL before you click it, you can hover it to see where the link actually leads before they hijack the click.

Uses Too Many Big Words

Contention

How can one be chronologically disappointed? Did you mean “chronically”?

So she wants to go to jail if she wakes up with a headache?

I have 1GB/m and rarely use half of it. I just don’t watch YT when I’m outside. And it’s plenty for looking at beans on Lemmy.

I love both of the hosts. Wish they just switched to something else instead of canceling completely. Could’ve done regular science news.

It was obviously sarcasm with that 100ths precision rating.
