Depends on emphasis. Said with normal stress on the first syllable is "able to be unlocked".
But if you pronounce it with extra emphasis on both of the first two syllables with a bit of a pause between, I think most people would think "not able to be locked". Very context dependent though
Exactly. "Common sense" is belief or intuition pretending to be reason. Typically invoked when someone does truly believe something is true, but doesn't have information or arguments to back it up.
The article mentions keeping the water running while lathering shampoo increases water usage.
It sounds like the pausing comment is when showers are interrupted, causing them to be longer overall.
But either way, household water usage is a minor blip compared to industrial and agricultural water usage. And I really do not like the negative way it talks about more enjoyable showers taking longer
It's not as bad as you'd think. I got it on my first attempt after playing through the game normally a bunch of times. Knowing where things are and what fights you can take in which order keeps things manageable.
And dream fights also do not kill you. So some of the toughest fights in the game will not end a steel soul run.
Plus 100% in Hollow Knight isn't everything. There's a total of something like 113%, so you don't need to do some challenges you know you might die to.
A mill grinds grain, a windmill is just a mill powered by wind. It's not technically correct to call a wind turbine or wind-powered pump a windmill, but that's how it's commonly used. So this comment chain is a pedantic correction leading into the ground water pun.
It's a solid pun, but does require the background of pedantic Internet discussions
They signed up to perform at a non-partisan celebration of their country's 250th anniversary. They backed out once Trump started attaching his name to the event and making it clear he wanted it to be a big rally
Certain types of stupid people get mean around computers because they are frustrating to use if you don't understand what you are doing.
Computers are complex machines with a lot of options and no understanding of intent. When dealing with simple machines, someone can just poke random things until they get the outcome they want, limited understanding required. When talking to a person, the other person can recognize their question makes no sense and try to find their misunderstanding or explain in simpler terms.
A computer responds to these things with an error message they don't understand or don't care to understand. It won't use simpler language if they seemed confused. It won't try to calm them down if they start showing frustration. It will just keep doing what it's doing and make them feel stupid, leading to frustration and anger.
On the flip side, a lot of stupid people love LLMs because they will accept any insane input and will output a reasonable looking answer(correct or not) while showering them in validation.
I'm no fan of AI, but this doesn't sound like an AI problem. They switched to using delivery contractors instead of employees to put more of the risk and cost on the delivery drivers. The payment structure to those delivery drivers is not really affected by Pizza Hut's customer satisfaction, just the number of deliveries they make and tip amount on those deliveries. So the drivers bundle orders and ignore low tip orders.
Pizza Hut can have the lower costs of contractors or the increased quality control of employees and they chose the lower costs.
Before FTX was shut down for their other sketchy behavior, they were advertising using fortune cookies. The fortune would be something saying to take a risk and the back was an ad for FTX. Most manipulative cookie I've ever had.
If you don't think you were an idiot 10 years ago, you haven't learned enough in those 10 years
The eastern half is flat and empty. The western half is mountainous like Switzerland, but also pretty empty. Most of the people live in a strip of cities along the foothills.
The mountains are impressive and the elevation gets nearly as high as the highest point in the alps. What's weird about Colorado is that even the lowest elevation areas are really high up. Denver is at the base of the mountains, but is at 5280ft/1610m. For comparison, most of Switzerland's cities are below 1500ft/500m.
It would probably take me a bit to figure it out. Boobs in an office environment are just something I've gotten used to ignoring. So they'd just be there in my peripheral vision, triggering that "something's different" reaction, but gets filtered out by social rules before it reaches the conscious part of my thoughts.
