My first language was QB, so it makes me chuckle.

Also, alias cim=vim. If I had a penny…

Oh that was just FSN, an actual filesystem browser for IRIX back in the day. You can install the port FSV if you want to browse your files as if they’re 3D objects on Linux today

In case you didn’t see the trick further down the thread - you have to make sure to install the windows version of the game that runs with proton. Then you can connect to online matches. Installing the linux version is a trap; frankly, they should just delist it at this point.

<3 u a real one

Do me a favor, when you’ve got a minute, go by a Wawa and grab an Italian hoagie and enjoy it for me? I miss them every day, man. Gas pump ads, shitty gas station hoagies, it’s rough movin across the Sheetz/Wawa line

Y’ever think about how if Jesus died by a guillotine there’d be guillotines everywhere

Ayy, recently rewatched that too. Personal headcannon: a better ending would have been a montage of Eva teaching an amnesiac Wall-E all the things he taught her and have him fall in love with those things and her again in the process. Probably more drawn out than “random electric spark magically resets memory” though

I’ll bite: I powered on my computer. My bios started which started my init process, which started my daemons, which started my login manager (maybe slim), which started my DE (maybe gnome), which I use to go to my browser in order to watch other people stream video games.

I’m dicey on what the browser is being used for - maybe security software? - but I feel like it’s plausible.

Not to mention the vast majority of Seinfeld

Lmao, I love the idea of adjusting the chart for obesity by subtracting men’s breast sizes from women’s

Yep. It’s a play on two meanings of “cut off”:

“If you cut off my reproductive choice” == “prevent my choice to get an abortion.” “can I cut off yours” == “can I physically cut off your dick.”

Also kills the opening line of snowcrash,

“the sky above the port was the color of television tuned to a dead channel”

Not to mention the small joys of tuning to the “encrypted” 18+ channels in the hopes of seeing a nip in the fog

Sure, but how do you get them to vote about it?

Turnout at the polls is definitely impacted by:

• knowing something is even being voted on
• being reminded and having expanded how important something is
• just perceiving other people are going to go vote too

and so it’s important to discuss something that’s going to be voted on, even if the audience has already made up their mind.

Let’s get creative!

If he suddenly really wants to do his laundry one morning, don’t ask questions. (Wet dreams and embarassment being the context here.)

That’s about all I can think of that’s gendered, really.

I was ~9 when I got the talk from my Dad, and it was basic stuff about just the mechanics. It set things up so that, around 13, I went to him with questions about how I was feeling re: puberty. So even now it’ll be helpful to do the talk and show that you’re available as a resource.

In your case, your son likely has some idea from internet pornography and whatever he got in school, but it would still be helpful to go through the basics with him. I’d frame it as “I’m sure you know most of this, but i just want to make sure you know what’s important.” It might also be helpful to make clear that pornography is as much acting as TV is - don’t set his expectations on it, it’s people faking things for money.

Going over the importance of condom use also helpful at his age. Keep in mind, it’s not necessarily about what he’s going to use right away, but making sure he knows when he does need to know.

Then, I’d just be there for him and ask if he has any questions, and answer them frankly. Tell him he can come back later if he’s unsure.

It’s awkward and tough I’m sure, but it’ll be a help not just now, but going forward. Good luck!

Every birthday card with your name in it is for you.

It’s meant to inspire a brief moment of dread and surprise for those of us who are not quick at math.
