Yeah, on one hand there’s eating The Onion; on the other, there’s The Onion accidentally growing an apple… the latter has been happening a lot lately.

Gotcha - shouldn’t be an issue with digging to get to the good stuff. That’s more of a small parrot thing with like parakeets and cockatiels.

If he’s eating some I’d just keep an eye on him. Fresh stuff you don’t want to sit for very long, but seeds and pellets can stay in a dish practically indefinitely until they’re eaten.

If he’s not eating at all, or less than normal, vet ASAP. Parrots are REALLY good at hiding symptoms, so any sickness that’s bad enough to make a noticeable change in their behavior means it’s already gotten pretty bad.

For food, just make sure he’s got a good mix - fruits, veggies, nuts, pellets… I’ve never had a macaw, so I’d look up any diet weirdness for them specifically, but in general, variety is good.

Has he eaten any of it? Some parrots will skim the surface, eating all the ‘good stuff’ they can see, but they can be dumb sometimes and don’t realize there’s more food underneath the layer of now-empty shells.

What kind of parrot is it?

Just play WoW on a private server and stop supporting Blizzard’s anti-user business model.

Lol came in to admit defeat, and saw a ton of comments doing the same.

Not 100% sure The Onion didn’t accidentally post something that actually happened again.

That’s what I’m getting at - it would. Maybe not officially, but the infighting would be intense.

Veteran here. Speculation - take it for what’s it’s worth (not shit). There’s a weird notion that the military is always just going to default to red, and while the total count definitely does lean red (cuz, y’know… most of us are fuckin dumbasses who vote against out own interests…) there IS a split… maybe… idk, 60-40? Point is there’s a lot more blue in the military than we’re typically painted as.

So, civil war. First off, not gonna happen cuz we don’t have the spine for it. We’ll just continue to bitch at eachother from the comfort of our couches; and while that bitching will probably get louder and we’ll probably see some increase in domestic terrorism, it will not get to the point of actual war. But if we did… the military isn’t going to just pick a side; it’ll turn into the world’s largest shitshow of infighting. Then once we’ve sufficiently hamstrung ourselves, we’re going to get our asses handed to us by the enemies across the globe we’ve been collecting like fucking pokemon via our shitty foreign policy.

Tldr, the sides of our civil war are basically two yipping lapdogs that will bark louder and louder at eachother until we eventually prompt our pissed off neighbor to come over with a shotgun. The actual war that happens will kill both dogs well before we get to the point of a civil war.

Vaguely recall reading about a way to set your phone with two PINs, your normal one, and a security one that’s like a completely separate user account. So just install some BS apps on it, take some photos, and give that PIN when you need to.

Agreed. If the screw moves left or right, it fell out of its hole, lol. I guess “clockwise” is hard to rhyme.

Naw, they’re rooting for Eisenhower.

Oh. That’s a bummer. Guess we’ll just have to wait for the next assassin. /shrug.

Yea this is getting dangerous. We need to put him somewhere safe. Like really safe. Maybe like concrete walls so bullets can’t get through, and barred windows to prevent would-be assassins from getting in. Have like multiple points of entry under lock and key, with armed guards all over.

Wall off the entire area too - big tall concrete walls. And barbed wire on top. No one’s getting through that! Ooh and some towers around good vantage points with spotlights and snipers.

We really can’t be too careful.

Does anyone know a place like that where Trump might belong?

Halo CE, Halo 2, and Halo 3 are great. Then the franchise was purchased by 343 and everything since has been a soulless COD clone with a Halo skin… and a random RTS.

The Dems will preserve a political model that’s at least malleable. 3rds will need to work together to push ranked choice more and more into voters’ field of view.

Republicans will swan-dive into fascism, in which case 3rds (and everyone else) are fucked.

Dems aren’t going to help 3rds directly, but any one who wants the possibility of a 3rd party victory later is committing political suicide by failing to vote blue as a means of buying time. Voting 3rd when that 3rd has no potential for victory is self-destructive.

3.3m / 182b = 0.0018% of Elon Musk’s wealth.

What percentage of your wealth do you lose if you get caught driving 5mph over the speed limit?

This shit needs to be proportional to both severity of the crime and total wealth.

TV remotes, computer speakers, car radios, etc must have two sets of volume up / volume down controls. One for upper volume limit, and one for the lower.

Now I can hear what the characters are whispering to eachother, without waking up the entire apartment complex when there’s a gunshot on screen.

Or hear the quiet parts of music when I’m driving without blowing my eardrums out when the contrasting high energy part kicks in.

I don’t see any mention of the YouTube adblock trick, so from the vid:

Copy YouTube URL. Paste it in Bing and search. Scroll passed Bing’s sponsored bullshit and click on the thumbnail for the video you searched. It will then play, still in Bing, with no ads.

So if you’re on a work or government or w/e computer that doesn’t allow installing adblock extensions, there ya go. No downloads or anything, just YouTube and Bing.

…this is the first time I’ve ever had any interest in using Bing, lol.

I use dimensional analysis, but it’s over two lines… and not sure what you mean by working backwards, since the order doesn’t really matter so long as every value is in the correct line.

Since typing it out would be ugly as sin, example image stolen from google:

…they like to give us things like pt weight in lbs and oz, and ask for final product of tablespoons or some shit cuz they enjoy wasting our time, lol.

That the type you mean?

I know there are a few different ways to crunch the numbers, but DA is my favorite so far cuz it’s so consistent.

*edit, example pic changed, first one put mcg twice in the same line, which is a weird move. /shrug

…being in nursing school is giving me a strong hatred for the imperial system.

The doctor ordered 35mg/kg Watdafuqenol IV QID. Available is a 2’ by 15" section of torn out carpet soaked in spilled Watdafuqenol; when wrung out into the patient’s left shoe, you get 97 chipmunk-mouthfuls diluted to a concentration of 24 Watdafuqenol to 1 toe jam. How many shot glasses full do you administer?
