...at least they determined what he died of before making his corpse bread.

They didn't hear you, Argentina. Better shake your fist sternly at them again.

I hate living in the timeline where I have to read half the article before making up my mind on whether this is satire.

Edit: Oh, there's a warning. Good call.

I can relate. You make a throwaway comment about how your wife doesn't let you come with her to the hardware store because you'll inevitably staple a finger to a display stand and someone always always replies to harrumph about wasting staples you obviously don't plan to buy*.

*Example only. Srsy guys.

"What are we looking at?"

My guess is that if you're in such a bleak frame of mind that you're considering suicide, your artistic creativity is also at its lowest point.

Like sortition? Not the worst system.

"Siri, play the world's smallest violin."

"Okay. Searching Pornhub for 'ball violence' videos."

"...forget it."

The other possibility is that plenty of analysts, historians, cultural advisors, etc know exactly how things work and what's going on but he doesn't listen to them because they're 'little people'.

“Everyone knows you can’t learn math unless you have an abacus!”

I know this is an exaggeration for emphasis... but people who learn the abacus method are faster and more accurate at basic addition.

I don't try to justify my existence. No-one needs to earn a right to be.

Mine is beard pills. Because some days feel like beard days and some don't.

I'm currently at a boardgame convention and while I'm pretty ignorant about the hobby, I've seen some nice looking tokens here.

Damage by weapon rating instead of making a separate damage roll. Yes or no?

I'm working on a personal project that involves calculating the mean, median and mode of word length in a series of poems. I've imported the first into LibreOffice Calc as a CSV, and have about 600 cells of word lengths.

Calc has Average, Median and Mode functions, but they only accept 255 inputs each. I could split the cells into batches of three and then work with those results, but it feels like that would only let me calculate the overall mean, not the other two figures.

So firstly, am I even using the right tool for this? Maybe there's a better way than using a spreadsheet. And secondly, if a spreadsheet is the best tool, is there a way I can do the calculations I need?

Especially if the sinners still need their punishment?

Either all at once, or over a lifetime?

My position is that it's a snack and husband tax must be paid. My wife is arguing that it's a meal or occupies some third food space and it's entirely hers. Who's right, court of Lemmy?

To explain what I mean, I think you can level up a cooking style. For example, pasta. At level 1, you're boiling dried pasta and adding sauce out of a jar. At level 1, you add your own spices. Level 3, switch to fresh pasta. Level 4, make your own sauce. And finally at level 5, make the pasta from scratch.

So with BBQ, I guess level 1 would be cooking the meat so it's neither burnt nor underdone. Maybe level 2 is mixing different meats/cuts that have different heat/time requirements and cooking well. Further levels = ?
