So now can we call them “pole hangers”? “Pole grabbers”? “Pole holders”? If they’re listening to music and swaying in time, perhaps “pole dancers”?

I’m sure there are better terms but I’m not very creative.

Same here for the most part. Every now and then I’ll see something recommended that may be on the edge but I’m not clicking it to find out.

I should note that I’m not talking about shorts so I guess I’m off topic here. They wouldn’t stop nagging me so installed a plugin to permanently hide it :)

It was weird that it needed my social security number, bank account, mother’s maiden name, and the name of my first pet to make the order but I guess it was worth it to stay healthy. Thanks bud!

O, and tell Derek I said hey.

Slashnet still exists and it’s fairly active depending on the channel. #xkcd was bumping last time I checked my client.

You’re supposed to put a link to where we can buy your miracle vinegar/silver mix in your post. Have you learned nothing from these marketing geniuses?

: D

I think they just fixed it

Yeah, Linux can capture and playback the spoken distinction between lowercase and uppercase letters. Windows can’t do that.

You’re not taking advantage of that functionality?

I was at a tire shop the other day and somebody gave them the keys and said “it’s a blue Honda Accord”

The tech came back confused and eventually they realized it was a grayish (maybe a tinge of blue) Hyundai Accent.

At least they got the first letters correct, I guess.

“Demonrats” is my personal favorite.

… Not sure if it was originally a typo for “Demoncrats” or no.

Thank you!

Thanks!

For the dumb people here (me), could you explain what an “ear” is in this context please?

I knew a career, retired, cop and he once told me “I never once rolled up to a domestic dispute where there was a bong smoking on the table and everyone was stoned. Alcohol, however, pretty much every damn time.”

When it gets bad enough that I have to ; )

Though we have been on a kick lately of washing dishes immediately after supper and not letting them pile up.

Wow, that is impressively sneaky to use the legitimate domain.

It has to be human liver though. The alcohol will know if you try to trick it with other types.

I ALWAYS forget the name of these little guys even though I see them pretty frequently. Thank you for the reminder… I’ll try to commit it to memory this time (no promises)

The last round my company did was pretty damn good. The email itself was well done and professional looking. They even registered a domain that was one letter different than the company name for the source email domain and the phishing form.

It was still one of those things that makes you hesitate like “your password has expired, click here to reset it” and the email client blatantly flagged it as being from outside our true domain. The client warning was the easy thing to spot, the rest was really well done.

You just have me a flashback to a game named Nocturne from the late 90s. I didn’t remember anything about it, but I recall enjoying it.

I haven’t thought of that in at least 20 years.

Ah yeah, that makes sense. There’s a big difference between a 7cm folding pocket knife and a 20cm fixed blade rambo-esque hunting knife… And I can’t think of any reason to carry the latter around in a city : )
