I still can't forgive my primary school teacher for telling me that if gravity turned off, everything would "float up" which is a complete misunderstanding of Newton's three laws.

There's only 1 hard problem in computer science. Off by one errors, and not repeating yourself. And off by 2 errors.

She just recently said "gently caress it" and will be performing as Shaparak Khorsandi hereafter. Also Thandiwe Newton, who was only Thandie because of a spelling mistake in the credits of her first big roll IIRC.

The "Five Sexes" history teacher I mentioned earlier insisted to all of us that gravity was a myth and the reason we stuck to the earth was centrifugal force. Thanks for reminding me

But centrifugal force (which exists mainly in a practical sense if not an actual sense) would push you away from the center of the rotating earth?

Yeah, that's pretty common in non-anglophone countries when they study English, especially I think in Asian countries, then if they emigrate to an Anglophone country they'll continue to use that name when speaking English.

Zero_Grade posted:I'm unsure what lesson about Spanish those skits were intended to teach, but they do sound pretty entertaining and I wish I got to do stuff like that. Also Salvador is a sweet name. If nothing else, it made the class extremely memorable, and the reason I decided to start studying Japanese at university. While I ended up not continuing those studies full time after the first semester and eventually got a master's degree in something else entirely, it gave me a solid starting point for further Japanese studies, and of all my pre-university classes, it's the one I think back on with by far the most fondness.

I could understand Heena's position if OP was saying "I'm going to have the package thief arrested!" Because I'd balk at ruining someone's life over some tchotchkes. But a zine? A zine is the worst consequence the thief has to face? We should all be so lucky!

Depends on what was in the packages too IMo. Like if someone stole a package with a book I'd be annoyed but it's not the end of the world. If I'm diabetic and they're stealing my insulin that's a bigger problem because now it's jeopardizing my health. OTOH if they're stealing insulin (assuming they know that's what's in the package) they probably need it too and can't afford it so in conclusion dta

I'm not sure that assumption holds up, to be fair; pourch piracy is usually a crime of opportunity. Grab poo poo when nobody's looking, and sort it out at home.

I bike a lot and one of the things I absolutely love to experience while biking is cars that don't stop at stop streets no matter the speed. Love? I mean hate. I already got hit by a car once last year and I now freaking suffer some kind of self diagnosed ptsd every time I come to a cross section and a car doesn't stop at the stop sign.

stealing poo poo from strangers is a bad look; you don't know them or their circumstances, and the worst case scenarios are things like you make off with their insulin, which is useless to you but also they might die without it if someone steals from you and you can eat the loss and are cool with it, that's fine, but they don't know that please limit your cool crimes of stealing to scenarios where you are certain no one will die as a result, like shoplifting or running scams on tourists

package thieves suck rear end, like I don't care enough about them to make a loving zine about it, maybe consider other outlets there, but it's such a dumb crime that does nothing for either party except make things more annoying and probably wind up a wash unless the package thief gets the one in a million of actually swiping a PS5 or something flippable. Like congrats on stealing my cat litter bro, I'm pissed I have to buy more, you're not gonna do poo poo with it, and my cat's annoyed too, nobody's happy here, nobody won! It's crime gatcha gaming.
