That’s totally fair. For some reason that just flew past my head while thinking it through.

I completely missed the water and the curtain because I was distracted that she kind of looks pregnant and focused on trying to figure out the meaning with that.

How were they being a dick?

Edit: Bah. Never mind. I see they made that comment multiple times.
I support properly characterizing people, and highlighting that someone is adding in misspellings while quoting others is fine to me (because it’s insulting and portrays the quoted more negatively than necessary - we should avoid that and let folks stand on their actual words). But repeated verbatim statements without elaboration… Does feel dickish.

It’s okay! You can buy an upgrade to use a stainless steel milk tube! 😒

It also has you pour coffee syrups into a little plastic dispenser so you have to clean that, too.

It appears there’s some sort of cleaning mode where you let the machine heat water into to a specially shaped tub that fits across the drip tray, where you also stick the siphon end of the milk tube. But it looks like the dirty milk water is ejected into the drip tray tub, so your wash starts off with clean boiling water before beginning to reuse cooled, dirty water.

Also, what’s the wisdom on encouraging customers to keep dairy at room temperature? You know people are just going to forget the dairy container on their counter. It’s like they tried to stand out but all their features add more complexity and failure points than solved problems.

I’ve been manipulated by people who do it on purpose, and it really screws with one’s threat response. (Especially if the manipulation occurred during formative years.)

I have to make an intentional effort to coach myself through these situations to have an appropriate level of empathy. It’s really fucking hard not to sound like an asshole sometimes - and really easy for others to misunderstand me because they don’t have the same frame of reference.

I hope that if I’m ever in the papers for abandoning my morals, my oaths, and all dignity in egregiously stupid ways, that my wonton and clear law-breaking is characterized as defiance.

“Oh, no, your honor, I wasn’t breaking all those laws! I was defying them!”

It can be pretty annoying. We wind up creating extranet sites or using other services. (We have some ftp-like file services that work for us.)

Yeeeaahh… At my org our default security policy for all of our site collections prevents sharing outside of our domain, and requires managed devices to access our SharePoint.
To share things outside of our org via SharePoint, a site collection with a different security policy has to be created, and only admins can control the sharing. We can only share with people who have some sort of identity service that can federate with ours.
No user is granted above contribute access, and sharing is turned off. (People can share links, but they cannot change the permissions of an item to share it.).
Theoretically it’s possible that a SharePoint can be created that allows public access, but to my knowledge we do not do that.

OneDrive files cannot even be downloaded by external parties (although they can be viewed in the browser!), and Teams workspaces are also not accessible externally unless by special circumstance.

I would imagine the federal government is… well, hopefully at least as locked down as my work.

You don’t accidentally publish the list.

At very large organizations, sharing files easily is a pain in the ass. The available tools are usually tied to your Active Directory, which means you have to know who you’re sharing with, or at least have some idea of what permission groups allow what access.

To share documents appropriately, you still have to do the hard work of finding out who and what permission groups you should be sharing with, even if that means coordinating with other IT teams to make sure you understand their permissions structures properly.

Or you half-ass it, and put the document somewhere public and hope the link doesn’t get shared beyond your control (or found).

I guess I’m saying it’s not intimidation, accident, or resistance — just laziness and stupidity. Both of which are not unfamiliar ground for this administration.

You could possibly DoorDash some river water to your home. (I don’t know how DoorDash works.)

But then it won’t be free. Hm. Foiled by capitalism!

Just like eroding every possible freedom to ‘protect’ people from terrorists and children from pedophiles. Irony is dead.

I will make it illegal!

I’m way more interested that they were apparently also making thumb tacks.

Misleading post. OP bought a teleporter.

I’ve long humored the idea of ballistic fried chicken.
Fired from a giant cannon, friction cooks it to perfection on its way to you. Sadly, the math and materials science just aren’t on my side. You’d need to be very precise to avoid overcooking, or accidentally pulping the chicken with too high of a muzzle velocity (because then you just have a soup gun). And like, you’d have to have some sort of sabot that disintegrates into edible spices.

Even if you could figure out delivery (and not wind up with it arriving embedded with smog or STARLINK satellites) there’s still the matter of receipt without destroying homes.

When I was younger my grandmother died of cancer. She wanted to pass at home and we lived with her.

For months she just declined, until she was bed-bound in the living room, having carers and family members feed her, clean her after she pooped on herself, sometimes randomly screaming in pain, having nightmares, and was largely incoherent. In the last week she didn’t have the strength to eat and her doctors told us to just stop feeding her. She had a death rattle that lasted for days and echoed through the house every time she breathed, until finally something just gave out.
It was not dignified. It was not peaceful. It was deeply traumatizing. I wish we could cut her suffering short somehow – for us as much as her.

I know touch.wang is a real domain.

It’s a pie chart that shows how much of its belly looks like a hole!

Well, don’t join the mob blindly. Do your own research. The above information was gathered from one internet search using the available context clues from this post.
It did not take very long and was easy.
