In the US nearly every window that opens has a screen in it to keep insects out. That's why venetian blinds have gone out of favor in the past 70 years.

The AI overlords have spoken, and I will not besmirch the good name of my future rulers.

Women are so cute and cute and cute and cute and cute and cute.

Same here! Too much union busting for me to feel comfortable buying things there. I'm sure they've done other stuff, but that alone was enough for me.

Ah, I wasn't aware. Thanks for the tip - I'll be sure to use it the next time I need to.

Democrat here. Didn't vote in this primary as, if I recall correctly, I would have had to write in anyone other than Biden. Didn't see the point, although I would have liked someone else. The party needs to get it's head out of its ass and start doing some of the long-term planning Republicans were doing pre-trump.

The trick is that while you hold your ears 'open', you have your lungs try to not breath out but you don't close your mouth. This lets the heart beating against your lungs be what pushes air in and out and then you hear the sounds of the air pulses as it moves past your eustachian tubes in your throat. Making sure your lungs are as full as possible is required so the lungs push against the heart.

I can do this. If I'm in a really quiet area, I like to take in a deeper breath and then exhale as slowly as possible while doing it, which then allows me to hear my heartbeat. Super nifty.

I can also use my soft pallet to block airflow from my throat to my nose. Can you do that too?

Thank you for your service!

Tacos.

That's where I rely on "fake it till you make it".

Whenever I get Starbucks I feel guilty because they are union busters. I've been making a lot more coffee at home.

I'm using a regular pixel 4a. Does a degoogled version still have the awesome pixel call screening?

The release of Baldur's Gate 3 was when I re-purchased Baldur's Gate 1 for a play. Owned the physical for windows 98 back in the day and wanted to give it a nostalgia run while I wait for the price to come down on BG3.

I learned in college (from my nurse girlfriend) that if a girl is taking antibiotics that it invalidates her birth control pills for the month and you need to use condoms until after her period.

Spread the word, brothers.

When I was a kid my dad would trap local stray cats, drive 50 miles away and then release them. If you have a forest a fair distance away you could do the same. It's not a great solution, but it's something.

If you click on the 3 dots to access the post options for a post from that instance, there is an option to filter out just that community or even that whole instance. I've done that with several non-english instances.

That is based on $67,000,000 per falcon 9 launch. I suspect it cost SpaceX way less to launch than that even though they might bill that amount to customers.

Same here, I don't have the update available yet. I just assume it's still making its way through the tubes.

Thank you very much!
