Saying they suck things in isn’t really correct, unless you want to also say that the sun is constantly sucking Earth toward it. It’s just gravity.

Also, magnets don’t only work on ferrous metals. Magnets push electrons through copper loops in generators and that’s how we have electricity.

Exactly. As far as Linux has come in terms of ease of desktop use and hardware compatibility, there is still a barrier in knowing how to know which flavor is right for you and, almost more importantly, why that flavor is right.

The kernel is too old for newer AMD gpu drivers to work, but switching to a newer kernel isn’t too hard. I had to when I built a new computer last winter, but I have also used various *nixes for a good long time.

Knowing how to discover you need a newer kernel is a bit tough for recent convert, though.

Given the way they’re describing it, US south/southeast. The pitcher plants that grow there grow in marshes and swampy grasslands are from there. Pitcher plants elsewhere in the world are a different type all together, and are generally epiphytes or close to it.

Except Australia and certain south American highlands. Or the pacific northest US. There are like 4 families of pitcher plants, only two of which are closely related (counting sarracenia and darlingtonia together with heliamphora in the family and nepenthes and cephalotus on their own).

English speaking? Pretty big. There’s also vast portions of the internet that are not in English, but if you don’t speak anything besides English, chances are you’re not going to come across it too much.

Note to anyone heeding this advice: it has to be a metal water pipe, no plastic.

He styles his name as Jon Stewart, unless that’s a picture of a book by the 17th century English philosopher John Stuart Mill.

Flopping is a matter of revenue, not quality.

OP’s linked article does mention Done Global.

Ruthia He, the founder and CEO of Done Global Inc., was arrested in Los Angeles, and David Brody, the clinical president, was arrested in San Rafael, Calif.

They didn’t give you shit. You paid them for a service. Corps are not your friends.

Before it got jaws it was a glue trap. Venus flytraps are an evolutionary offshoot of Drosera, the sundews.

Another fun fact is the Yellow Trumpet pitcher plant’s (sarracenia flava) flowers smell like cat pee.

Yes, but HL2 does not.

Male gorillas and lions both top out around 500lbs. Do you think you could kill a cat the same size as you if that cat wanted you dead? With your bare hands?

Paralyzing is super broken in Skyrim. It doesn’t actually matter how long the target is paralyzed, because paralyzing them at all causes them to fall, starting a lengthy stand-up animation, during which they’re vulnerable. Hit them, they fall. They start to get back up, so you hit them more. Eventually, they stay down.

My cat is a sweet baby, until you pet her 1/4 inch too close to the line near her belly that’s invisible and keeps moving. When you do that she turns into a furry squirming angry thing that’s sharp on 5 of its 6 points.

Shit, I’m a dog person and you’ve got me rethinking things.

I feel like the trans part really overshadowed the “spits eggs from -her- mouth” part. Is that a common thing for males or females of her species?

And you can emulate the Switch on the Deck.

The best dog I ever had was a pit. Sweet as pie, just wanted to cuddle and love. We chose him because he was a big meaty guy with the most adorable face you’d ever seen, and because he needed a home ASAP. We’d take him on walks and people would cat call him from passing cars, or literally stop us and ask if they could dog-sit. He spent nearly a decade with us, just loving and farting and cuddling and snoring.

He really didn’t need any help to become a great dog, except that I needed to train him that the cat was a friend and not something to chase and put our mouth on. That took all of a weekend, and that was after he’d been abandoned and abused for half a year before we got him. I know it’s not true for every individual, but many times all a dog really needs a a good home with people that love it.
