Yeah I personally actually prefer when programs conform to the OS UI as long as the UI is decent (cough Windows 8), it looks a lot more uniform and cohesive

Wow you’re right, he’s the author of the infamous “is-odd” and “is-even” packages. What an odd person.

Someone in the OP PR mentioned the amount of energy used to download these tiny packages and its actually something crazy to think about

The answer is still to adopt. The dogs are coming either from a shelter or a mill and both are good sources for adoption.

The former means it’s still giving a dog a home. It is still a dog that needs a home regardless of which country it originated from.

The latter seems completely nonsense if the German shelters are paying full price and still giving the dogs up for adoption at reasonable rates. They’d be losing a ton of money. And if they’re taking the leftovers from the puppy mills for cheap or free, then those are still losses to the mills and are discouraging more breeding. Also, those are still dogs that need homes regardless of source. Just because a dog was born in a mill doesn’t mean it deserves not to be adopted.

In either case the answer is still to get a dog from a shelter.

I got excited when I saw this post because I knew someone in the comments would have a solution!

Didn’t he cheat on his wife and get caught as well?

See alcohol I could “get” but Pepsi? Who has a Pepsi addiction

I’m going to rant here because your comment re-ignited my rage.

My family and I have weekly dinners. I drive over there and pass through their neighborhood. They own a successful business so it’s a pretty nice neighborhood with a good median of trees down the main road passing through (still a 25 MPH speed limit). And every week for several years now, there is a discarded Pepsi can in the median. Not the same can, but a new can every week. Someone drives through there, likely multiple times a week and I’m just not there to see it, and throws a Pepsi can in roughly the same spot.

It enrages me. It’s so senseless and selfish that I cannot even fathom a reason. My best justification is that they’re a person who is “sticking it to the rich” by littering in a nice neighborhood, but that’s being extremely generous. I am convinced it’s purposeful because the consistency is staggering. A new can in the same 100 feet of road, every day.

And I know it’s not the same can because if it snows, the snow obscures the cans and the poor hero picking them up can’t see them, so when the snow melts there are several cans littered about.

It genuinely makes me so angry, because it’s so inexplicably terrible. I just hate things I can’t understand. It makes me more angry than Donald Trump because at least with Trump, on some level I get it. I may hate what he’s doing but I can logically see why he’s doing it and that understanding is almost calming, in a sense.

But this? Absolute nonsense. I just cannot see why someone would do this

I used to be really into doing Google Maps and uploading reviews, images, and updating stuff. I got a real sense of community out of it for almost no effort.

But now I’m trying to cut back on Google so much, trying to use Organic Maps more often.

I was also always self-conscious about taking pictures of stuff in a restaurant and eventually couldn’t stomach it anymore.

Boy this is… Something else

Banned for being a separatist shill

Kind of torn my niece is starting to like video games.

On the one hand, they’re amazing and I still play them all the time. They’re integral to my life and are a medium above others in quality, accessibility, and affordability.

On the other hand, they’re a double-edged sword. It’s hard to be healthy while playing video games without good discipline. And I think back to times I chose video games over homework and I regret it. I don’t necessarily want her to follow an unhealthy hobby, even if I love it

I think you’d have better luck with the “corporate wants you to find the difference between these two pictures” one instead

I feel this. While I am not overly fond of capitalism or the United States government, most of the memes criticizing them are so un-funny they hurt. They weren’t made because the OP had a funny idea for a meme, but because they wanted to insult the U.S. or capitalism and had to find some joke to do it. They feels so forced.

I think we as a community can balance making a political point with being actually funny at least a little better than we do

They have been complaining for at least three weeks. When I saw this post I had a hunch that it was the same person and I was right. Just an apparently bitter person that doesn’t comorehend that “meme” is not what they think it should be

Added new Roshan ability Roar of Retribution. If attacked by the team that last killed him, Roshan will release a roar that is heard globally, damages all units in 900 AoE and applies a debuff on them that increases incoming damage by 25%. Triggers when Roshan’s health drops below 80%. Damage: 50. Damage Bonus per Minute: 10. Debuff Duration: 8s. Cooldown: 20s

This is the most interesting comeback mechanic I’ve seen. I’m not sure it will help much, but if someone is trying to sneak Roshan I can definitely see scenarios where it will come in big

Putting aside the content, this was a fantastically well written article. It was long but I kept reading because it told such a tale.

And, the inline sources were, generally, actual sources like statistics and research articles. I detest articles that just link to other news sources - I want the source of truth, not to play telephone. So good on the author for avoiding that trend!
