Well done sir Happy Birthday |
At university in the UK, year 2, so everyone is at least 20 21 Lecturer is struggling with 200 students not giving a shit really frustrating I see a white thing about me thinking it is a pigeon ? Someone had made a paper plane and flew it right from the back of the hall and it went allll the way to the front to the lecturers feet |
Your point was kind of clouded in a knot of jargon, but I d like to point out the difference between the homeless and the dole scroungers Or rather, the difference between their two means of welfare The homeless receive their welfare from voluntary donations in the private sector, whilst the dole scrounger receives their welfare from violently enforced taxation The scrounger takes our money and there s nothing we can do about it The homeless receive our money on a voluntary basis |
Second this, there s a great cast of characters in that book Steve Eisman was easily my favorite I love how Micheal Lewis takes an a complex and somewhat opaque issue, finds a lot of first hand accounts and weaves their stories together in a way that explains things throughly I d recommend not only his books, but also his pieces in Vanity Fair |
Not entirely relevant, but you re clearly an informed military type Out of the following, what would you say would give one the most valued experience for PMC jobs |
UK Army |
UK Marines |
French Foreign Legion |
Australian Army |
USMC |
US Army |
Police Civilian Security work |
In case you were wondering, I m a dual english australian citizen who might be moving to america soon, so I view these all as viable options |
Secondly, if I was interested in working as a PMC later on should I enlist as military police? I read that it was relevant to security contracting, but also that it means you see barely any action and have extremely tedious duties |
Thirdly, is it worth pursuing a career in Special Forces if you only want to be a PMC afterwards? Obviously you would have a competitive edge in the hiring process, but would the gap between an 11B and an 18B be massive? |
Finally, thank you, great AMA, and thank you for your service to the rest of us as a marine |
i can fit twice this amount one at a time |
Wal Mart is a retailer, not a showbiz entertainer |
Now, if you insist on carrying out the analogy, then you have to assume that Larry would have his own network, and pay his entertainers well below guild wage, in fact, he would have to make them leave SAG altogether This analogy doesn t work well though, does it? |
Of course, if you are only saying that Wal Mart, too, has found a niche, then I must applaud them as well I went there yesterday and bought a heating pad for my wife and it was relatively inexpensive The customer service was atrocious, of course, but I knew that going in Are you saying that Larry s jokes are unfunny like Wal Mart s service is unreliable? In that I guess we can agree Of course, they re both in it for the money, so I still don t see the problem |
I m sorry, try as might, I cannot get your analogy to work Perhaps my logic is too bullheaded Were you trying to go a different way, maybe? Please explain your analogy fuller, so as I might be able to understand where you are coming from |
He CHOOSES not to be violent, but has the urge to do violence |
I understood what he meant |
You think pacifists never get mad? |
As someone who is usually a Player Character, I really like Tirdun s and Corjin s examples They re both good examples of dealing with PC brashness harshly, but without TPK |
In the past, I have been one of those Combat oriented players, charging in and hitting everything because My DM wouldn t give me a badguy I couldn t defeat! When forced into Int rolls to make the smarter decision, I always felt railroaded |
The one time I had a DM thrash the party to within an inch of their lives really made me stop and remeasure the whole charge chat aspect of encounters |
The database that runs out of the filesystem? |
Sometimes I don t know why people take other people s advice seriously It s not like this would be hard to benchmark Databases run under wildly differing conditions and at wildly differing speeds |
That tutting will haunt that person for the rest of their day In that respect our emotional defences are as weak as our weaponry |
You fail to show what harm it does, and what difference does it make that it doesn t agree with your own endeavors? This isn t r flip69 |
The post wasn t meant to ego or karma boost Evidently you re mad that people are interested in the subject Or maybe you re just mad that people want to experience DMT? |
You re starting to remind me of those people that latch onto a local band, then when they get popular, you start shitting on everyone that likes the mainstream band because you liked the local band first |

This was the kind of event I have a lot these days where I hear a fantastic song, find out it s a remix, hear the original and balk |
Has the thought ever occurred to you that you may be commiting the same crime as the other guy that reads reddit ? Perhaps it doesn t matter that you re good at explaining the jokes, but they are just saying what out of obligation too |

Her vision seems to be peacocks |
If you re really serious about going to law school, go retake the LSAT until you get into the range necessary to get into a top 15 school In the meantime, look for work in a field you re interested in and think LONG and HARD about your decision It may be a good fit for you, but even if it is, retaking the LSAT and getting around 170 or above will completely change your career trajectory |
If you can t get into a top 15 school, I d recommend not going to law school At least until the market picks up, which could be many years from now |
I don t know their pricing, but Harolds in Lewisville does quality work and has experience with quality timepieces |

I should have updated the bios when I had windows going, but need to see if I can do it in linux, I was scared it would shut down in the middle and brick it would that brick it? |
I need to pick up a can of air and try that, I wanted to buy a small compressor for when I fix pcs, goodness knows 1 can of air is not always enough for some of those out there , but I was told they could have to much moisture in them and mess up electronics I live in TX so the air it would be compressing is already very humid |
my first sex ed was in sixth grade elementary with a middle aged dude for a teacher who was obviously very uncomfortable the whole time then he opened himself up by asking for anon questions written and put in a box, so the boys proceeded to torture the poor guy with things like what s a boner? for over an hour |
Giving a child a decent life isn t a favor, it s a responsibility |
Right! Because they use numbers like Trillion or quadrillion Why not use the real numbers that they use instead of the ones you pull out of your ass if you will like what the politicians say is untrue Let the real number speak for themselves instead of making shit up |
Bibio? http www youtube com watch?v K I6 aoKglQ |
Thanks! Arranging the shiatsu through the hotel hadn t occurred to me at all, that appeals a great deal more than the idea of wandering into a random parlor |
I ve got 7 to 10 days planned in Kyoto to see things in town and to do day trips in the region |
I think I may get a room at Haneda Excel for the last night in Japan to avoid having to take a taxi in the middle of the night |
The next droid incredible in your scenario is going to be the batch of 8x60 HTC devices They are going to be dual core 1 2ghz beasts with an adreno 220 which is a GPU that 4x more powerful than the one in your droid incredible The first one, the HTC Pyramid, should be out this summer for tmobile |

People are completely ignoring culture and its effects on society |
People are also ignoring the effects of mass global communications, which means that we are basically one large group now |
I actually think that given our level of technology including communications, its in our genes is a complete cop out that overprivileged use to justify gross inequality The problems are related to the fundamental assumptions and institutions of our civilization |
What miracle cream are you using that turns hundreds of years into a few grey hairs? |
Anyway, I m sure I read about Chell being in an Aperture Science stasis field, similar to the one Gordon Freeman was in |
I m not a feminist, but I am disturbed by the way in which the intersectionality of multiple oppressive social structures acts to reinforce the devaluing of people of non normative identities and public personas, especially with regard to gender performativity and the policing of gender roles |
True story |
I am mentally and emotionally scarred by the gonorrhoea nodule |
Therefore they do not get enjoyment? You re an idiot, and you need to quit speaking out of your ass |
Ah I c Well good work sir |
I make games Professional interest and abject curiosity I also get a thrill out of watching modern COD things similar to how I imagine most people feel about staring at a train wreck |
A financially successful, popular train wreck, but a train wreck nonetheless |
oh shit |
lol |
