Are you confusing fahrenheit and Celsius? Body temp can’t cook food

Heavily context dependent, I’d say. In a vacuum, it’s not that unusual. The entire purpose of text is that you don’t have to respond immediately. If it happens constantly, then maybe it would have been worth figuring out why that keeps happening. Maybe he dislikes you, or maybe he’s just busy.

It seems you already understand that, though. So perhaps the more informative question is why you feel the way that you feel towards your ex. Frankly, it’s probably some level of infatuation (or as I call it, puppy love). It’s not intrinsically bad, but it does tend to drive people to have unrealistic expectations for their partners, which can drive conflict once those expectations become established

You can blindly download and install things from the internet on Windows, you can’t in Linux. If you try, it’ll be confusing at best, destructive at worst. If you want to install something, best to look for it in your GUI software manager (the “app store”)

If you’re up for the challenge (it’s extremely tedious to set up, partially thanks to its horrid instructions), you can try installing winapps. It’ll save you a lot of time with running Windows programs

I struggled with your exact same problem when I moved to Linux. For the record, the reason why there isn’t a Program Files x86 is because the way that Linux stores programs is different from the way that Windows stores programs. Windows sorts its system files by programs, so that the configuration, launcher, and software files are all together. Linux sorts by file type, so that the configuration files of all programs are together, the launchers of all programs are together, etc.

What I’ve come to learn is, don’t bother trying to find your application in the folder. The best way to install things is through Discover (or whatever GUI software manager you’re using). If the program you want isn’t there, it’s basically a crapshoot whether installing from the internet will work or not

The Sun god demands more sacrifices

No, unless you already know how to pilot the ship, playing in VR is probably going to get you severely motion sick

I’m unsure what you mean by switches, since all mechanical keyboards use switches.

Regardless, if you’re looking for a relatively cheap, good quality mechanical keyboard, I’d probably recommend you check out Keychron. They’ve got a lot of options and they’re all decent quality for a decent price, so you could probably find something you want in their catalog

Sure, but the overall intent holds true. Not just in professional settings, it’s important to have the skill to reframe a negative comment into a positive one.

This is probably what I would say:

It sounds like you’ve got everything you need for the meeting. Would it still make sense for me to attend?

If that’s the case, then I think I’d be more useful handling some other tasks in the meantime. Please keep me updated on the outcome of the meeting

This is a genuinely really cool science fair experiment. Too many science fairs encourage students to have grand, showy results that ultimately are just reproductions of existing experiments.

IMO science fairs should produce new data and new ideas, even if the methodology and rigor is lacking. It’s the process that counts, not the results.

Fwiw that qPCR curve doesn’t look that bad, just don’t have the y-axis be in log form

Can she make a law that she cannot break? Checkmate Christians

To me, it’s a way to quantify how other people feel about my own positions. It’s neither good nor bad to be upvoted or downvoted. People have unpopular takes sometimes and you shouldn’t stake your identity on the amount of upvotes or downvotes you have.

Instead, upvotes and downvotes are most useful for other people to guage comments. Generally speaking, if a comment is universally downvoted, that likely means the position is unpopular enough that it adds no value to a discussion, and is therefore not worth engaging with.

I consider it to be a system built upon mutual understanding - that you don’t have to seriously engage with everyone’s viewpoints, and conversely, that nobody has to seriously engage with yours.

It becomes a problem when upvotes and downvotes are gamified like on Reddit, because Goodhart’s Law demands that it stops serving its purpose when people are only attempting to optimize their upvote/downvote ratio.

It doesn’t get crispy, but on the other hand, less microplastics on your food, so that’s a fine trade anyways.

Pro tip: microwave for half the microwave time, then bake for half the baking time. That reproduces the original crispiness without the sleeve

This is the correct response. The other comments saying that “the name being a Nazi reference isn’t that big of a deal” is missing the point. Because it’s not a Nazi reference.

It’s just a self-aware joke about elitism in PC enthusiasts.
