Any soup is cool enough to eat on a first date. If your date gives you crap about something as inconsequential as what kind of soup you’re eating, your date should be discarded at your earliest convenience, because they have shown themselves to be an opinionated twat that will bitch about things that don’t matter in the slightest.
Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!
when there’s not a recognised disability involved but just health issue/s (which could be “disabling”).
From the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, in regards to the ADA:
Under the ADA , you have a disability if you have a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits a major life activity.
Essentially, if you are disabled, you have a disability, whether recognized or not. If you are not disabled, then you do not have a disability.
Under this definition, something like asthma, which is fairly common, can be a disability when it comes to strenuous activities, but isn’t something that is immediately obvious to someone just passing on the street.
As far as it being ablist to assume that someone not showing signs of disability isn’t disabled? No, that’s silly. Not believing them if they tell you they can’t run a mile because they have asthma? Still no, that’s skepticism.
Ablism would be something like planning a company outing, and choosing the location up a tall, steep hill when other options were available, specifically because you don’t like the fact that your coworker has asthma.
Neither count thou two.
Close, but not quite. PC stands for paper cassette, e.g. the tray you load the paper into. You’re right about it referring to the paper size, though. PC LOAD LETTER just means “Put more letter-size paper into the tray.”
Period flow can happen without warning, and even if there is a warning, it’s not usually something that girls are comfortable enough with to want to announce the reason in front of a classroom.
For real. Just because Putin is a Bond villain doesn’t make every citizen of Russia one of his goons.
I started cradling him when he was just old enough to be adopted. Every time we crossed paths, I would say “Scoop!”, scoop him up with a hand under his chest, roll him over backwards with my other hand on his butt, and lay him down on my arm like that. Then I’d scratch his tummy and give him kisses, then let him go after a little bit.
I taught my cat how to speak. Now he doesn’t shut up.
I also “taught” him to tolerate being cradled on his back like a baby.
The dude could probably take out your lungs and heart with his eyes closed.
To be fair, so could I.
For union dues, I’ll sometimes bring up strikes. People know that when unions strike, they aren’t working, and when they aren’t working, they aren’t getting paid. What they don’t realize is that most unions pay the employees during strikes, and that money has to come from somewhere.
Not a problem. =)
Step 1: Find the area of each chunk. The biggest chunk is your main chunk.
Step 2: Find the distance between the closest edge of main chunk and the center of each other chunk individually.
Step 3: Discontinuity of each chunk is area of chunk * distance from main chunk / total area.
Step 4: Total discontinuity is sum of each chunk’s discontinuity.
Bolded parts are important. If you use the center of the main chunk, larger main chunk radii make other chunks seem more discontinuous than they should be. If you use the closest edge of other chunk’s, you don’t account for the entire area of the other chunk.
This will give you a number that is bigger when there are more and/or bigger pieces that are further away, and smaller when the opposite is true, normalized for the total area of the country so bigger countries aren’t penalized just because they’re bigger.
Make sure your litter box is clean, and that your cat thinks it’s clean. Cats want to be able to bury their waste, and if there’s too much in the box for the cat’s liking, they’ll go somewhere else, and it’s often right outside the box if there isn’t something else they could use. It’s important to understand that it’s the cat’s opinion that matters here, not yours: you may need to scoop it every day, even if there’s only a little in it.
You may also need to move the litter box and clean the previous area, including and most importantly the place outside the litter box that gets used. Use vinegar if you can: it has a strong smell that cats don’t like, but it won’t hurt them like bleach can. Lemon juice works well for this, also. What this will do is make sure that this area doesn’t smell like a place they have used as a litter box before.
The terms for “clockwise” and “Counterclockwise” originated long before clocks. Clockwise was originally called “Sunwise” and followed the movement of the shadow around a sundial.
Counterclockwise was “widdershins”, from a Middle Low German phrase meaning “against the way.”
We don’t use “earthwise” because from our perspective, the earth doesn’t rotate.
So do the people who say “check and mate.”
That seems fine to me. I’ve heard “check and mate” a bunch, so this isn’t too much of a stretch for me.
There’s a few reasons.
The biggest reason is that bittorrent doesn’t download segments in order. YouTube is a video streaming service, so the video will stop playing after segment 5 if you don’t have segment 6, regardless of how many segments you actually have. This is a user experience issue, and it would basically make YouTube unusable for the current use cases.
Peer to peer file sharing, as you might expect, means that other end users are providing the videos, not the company. This means that the company cannot guarantee transfer speed, file completeness, or even that the file is the right file. This may end up causing them some legal trouble in the platform current state.
Peer to peer also means that the videos need to be stored in multiple locations, with multiple copies, and Joe Schmo doesn’t have a datacenter in his basement. There will end up being a limit to how much content can be stored, and things that people don’t watch simply won’t be stored anywhere, so you wouldn’t be able to look up that meme video you liked 14 years ago.
It’s just not a good way of providing data as a service to a customer. It’s an alternative for smaller sites that can’t afford, or don’t want the paper trail of, appropriate data server sizes.
This whole incel concept confuses me. Are you telling me there are hordes of dudes out there so unlikable that they can’t even pay a hooker for a handy?
Definitely not on copyright grounds, since almost all state flags (except Georgia, Mississippi, and soon to be Utah) are old enough to have entered the public domain.
