The sound of trickling water is triggering to beavers. Literally. If they hear water running, they have to turn it off.
They are the ultimate dads of the animal Kingdom.
I'm sure if they evolved in an environment with electricity, they'd be going from room to room turning off light switches.
My wife is no longer hostile to the idea of me owning guns.
I still don't have any other than two collectors pieces that shouldn't ever be fired except as a last resort, only one of which still has ammunition manufactured for it.
They probably check to make sure you're running a current version of Windows. The code assumes if you're not on Windows 11, then you need to upgrade.
I thought everyone agreed the Japanese internment camps was a dark spot on our history.
They did, but a frightening percentage of the population were bothered that it didn't go far enough.
Edit: in other words, vastly different reasons why some thought it was a dark spot.
As if MAGAts are sufficiently self-aware to admit they need hearing aids.
You're focused on the word, "body", when the one that makes the difference is "on".
If he had tattoos in his body, it would be ok.
It's just a bit more difficult to find a tattoo artist who is willing to work on the inside.
Good read.
Demoralizing, but what isn't today?
Asked a user to log into a computer at work. She would have been around 25 or so about 6-7 years ago.
I was stunned watching her turn on caps lock each time she had to type a character in uppercase. I didn't understand it at all until my mom pointed out she probably always used a phone or a tablet and never learned what the shift key was for.
Still blows my mind because by that point in that user's education she had probably written hundreds if not thousands of papers to get where she was. I can't imagine her doing that without using the shift key.
I'm in the middle of Gen X.
I had a class in college that was centered on COBOL.
I certainly wouldn't need anyone to explain to what it is.
I was out with friends from work and this recipe came up (I added it to our wiki at work under the oncall issues page).
Whenever it is brought up, I have to make it or I never stop thinking about it.
The recipe was handed down from my grandmother through my mother, but we could never get the white cheddar cheese sauce to work right. My wife figured out what we had to do, and now it's easy.
I have no idea what a kangaroo has to do with my employer, but they brought in a baby kangaroo for an event, so I waited in line to hold it.
It seemed like every time we visited WDW, there was some event or show taking place in front of Cinderella's Castle, and the interior was closed.
When I visited as a kid, you'd walk through the castle and ooh and aah at the mosaic.
I've wanted to see the mosaic again for years, and it was always closed. I finally got the chance again last time, and I took some pictures.
I got a new shirt to wear to protests:
