Just what I need a better way to doom scroll

That was a good attempt at minimizing the effects of someone of this stature making a statement like this.

It's a public statement saying to the extremely devout religious members that the high officials condone the deaths of these Nations people.

I mean it always has been okay. But now it's even more okay. Again.

Kinda like the high officials of these nations did to their military. So it's all balance right?

But it's not cause the religious extremist will attack soft targets intentionally.

Learn! Or don't.

My first toe dip into Linux so many years ago I did the same thing copy paste everything. Then got curious. You may be interested or may not be.

$600 on Pre-Sale Sale? For gloves that don't even have built in tracking. Smells like vaporware to me.

I agree that would be helpful. I'm just going off what is available with what is currently available in the app. Ive only been on the website once so really don't know all the available data points

 

So when looking at the Community Information in the sidebar it doesn't show the number of members or number of posts. I tend to use this information as a gauge of activity within the community. I can see this information when I search for the community though.

Is this a limitation of the system or something that could potentially be added to the app later down the road?

Cause Microsoft's history with security has been stellar so far.

Completely relate. It's frustrating watching someone LARP something you take pride in. Absolutely nothing wrong with disliking the guy for his actions. And hell, you can still not like him for this, with the knowledge he's not really in the wrong. This time.

V2V Respect.

Tradition sure. Most people don't. But they most assuredly can and do. I speak as the person who had to give a death by power point to my company due to a soldier in our unit getting into a scuffle with a civi that saluted during reveille and as per tradition PowerPoint/education based on history and regulations was the answer for preventive measures.

The only reason I even spoke to this now is the "stolen valor" aspect you presented initially and to inform the rest of the people that feel this is awkward for just anyone to do.

The truly awkward part is the way most do the "military" salute wrong. American or otherwise. I'd say it's a tell tell sign of them not being in the military but there are plenty of soldiers that don't do it correctly either so :shrug:

So misinformed. Civilians absolutely can and do salute. They have since the beginning of time. It is a sign of respect and acknowledgement. Whether a full fledged "military" style salute or a hand wave like the royals and civilians do or a tip of the hat like "cowboys" do. There is no implied "stolen valor" if a civilian wants to salute another civilian or a person in the military or of high position.

And of course you can choose not to salute like I assume you do.

Edit: this in no way should imply I support the people in this article. Just stating facts

Every damned spreadsheet should have the header locked so that you can quickly know what you are looking at after row 25. You can't change my mind.

Ahhh gotcha.. didn't put two n two together with the Quest.. duh

 

And the timer keeps going up.

 

As the title says, I currently don't have a reliable method to connect to my home network due to pivpn having issues. In the mean time my phone trys to synced sensors constantly and is one of the power sinks. Is there a way to turn off sync when I am not connected to wifi or even better when I'm not at home?

 

I've saved many postings but when I go back to view them they are no where to be found. In fact some "saved" postings are ones that I would never be interested in saving in the first place. Maybe I fat thumbed them but unlikely.

Do saved postings only work for the instance that you are subbed to?

 

With the amount of content that I am not into seeing daily, sports, weird anime etc. It would be nice to have a quicker way to block individual instances.
