Ragyo Kiryuin definitely has one of the best personal themes in all of anime https://youtu.be/6M1UU53Y4LE

"'Tis but a scratch."

"A scratch?! Your arm's off!!"

This - get the no-brand replacement heads. No way would I spend the prices Oral-B are asking.

Sometimes the big brands can end up as better device purchases, since despite being more expensive upfront, there are plenty of cheap third-party consumables available.

Something nonconductive seems the safest choice, so you can't accidentally short anything.

In the mechanical keyboard community this even-larger-than-ISO-enter size is generally referred to, quite affectionately, as the "bigass" enter.

Agreed. People deserve to be respected for the job they are doing - no matter what that job is.

Really sends the message to the server "you aren't doing your job the way I like it, so I'm going to do it for you."

It's very presumptuous to interfere in someone's professional operations, and assume you know what's going on. What if you pick up someone else's order by mistake? Then the kitchen has to remake the whole thing because now it's contaminated. Or if you take the food but leave the "ticket" there and the staff and kitchen get mixed up about what's gone out and what hasn't.

Totally messing up the process and shows zero respect for the people doing their jobs.

Sit your ass down and let the staff do what they do. The other customers are all getting their food no problem, and so will you.

I guess this means Microsoft's similar recent move with Office worked out for them financially, even though it caused a lot of backlash.

I recently swapped my Dad's Windows computer with my old machine, which I installed Linux on ahead of time.

I told him it was a faster machine - which it was just slightly in the hardware sense, a very minor upgrade. A half-truth to encourage the transition.

But of course, it's running Linux, not Windows.

Next day he phones me up really happy that it's "so much faster than the old machine!"

And it really is a lot faster, but it's not the hardware. It's just not getting bogged down with all the crap Windows constantly does in the background.

Either way, mission accomplished.

"So I built her a birthing nest and kept showing it to her and then she didn't even use it! Can you fucking believe it!!"

Honestly though, very sweet.

Yes.

In fact, I'd say that among all Star Wars TV shows it's the one which makes the most sense to someone who is unfamiliar with wider Star Wars lore.

Andor is a very independent entity, and everything you need to know to enjoy the show is encapsulated within the show itself.

The only problem watching Andor first is that it's so good, everything else will feel disappointing in comparison.
