Do not make this a god drat thread where you apple and PC people can fight all day.

I just want to know some neat things about my MacBook Pro and the leopard OS, that I can do on that may have taken some of you guys a while to learn. I have a pretty good grasp on the OS but if you think you know something interesting or important post it for me to learn.

Yes, I know it is a vague request but I better not get any genius telling me so. The reason the question is vague is because I don't quite know what would be important that I do not know.

:science: I'm not sure why a comic about ninja wizards caused you to have a meltdown on Christmas but here we are, confronted with not only that but the fact that this isn't even the first time.

Off topic / low content / spam / caring too much about Naruto. :science:

no im sure im as annjoying as that guy but he writes a thesis about how bad naruto is every week like some stocholm syndrone drunk woman who cant do any better infavt lets just rename this to naruto closure thread because apparently nobody here who reads thge manga anymore actually enjoys it they just wont to complain about it every single fgucking week mods can we rename this to naruto closure thread please

Triple Elation posted:

I literally think that the most productive discussion to be had about the manga right now is regarding the question of how and why this is bad writing. By which I mean

- The total lack of dramatic tension because the only two options are either everything's totally saved or everything's totally doomed, and we know which one it's going to be
- The total lack of dramatic tension because whenever the story comes across it by some kind of fluke, it can't resist unceremoniously casting it aside
- The intangibles being a clusterfuck because now all the relevant ones have their Power Level(tm) set to "unfathomable by you, puny reader", whether they're magic chains or magic giant animals or magic eyes or magic shields or magic black flames, so whenever any two of them clash the reader has no idea what to expect, and it goes by the author's say-so
- The intangibles being a clusterfuck because they all contradict one another and the author can't seem to settle on any sort of coherent idea of how they actually work
- The good guys having no agency because most of them have abilities way far down the scale from the huge "gently caress you I win" energy blasts that are in vogue now, so they are helpless to do anything except by author fiat
- The good guys having no agency because Kakashi is the only one of them who seems to have any personal emotional stake in what's happening, and the rest merely relate to it by proxy via the boiler-plate sentiments of supporting Naruto and having to save the world, so whenever they speak up all they do is parrot variations on this one talking point
- The main bad guy having no verisimilitude because he's the godly powerful "lol let's take away everything from everyone because I'M THE BAD GUY SEE" naive concept of evil incarnate that you've seen a million times in fictional works and seriously no one in real life is ever actually like that
- The main bad guy having no verisimilitude because no one can honestly follow the glorious backstory of how he came to be the main bad guy and why the hell we're having literally the entire ninja world fighting him right now without chanting to themselves "I want to believe" repeatedly
- The horrible pacing because the author is stretching out this battle to put off that dread moment when he has to think of what to do next
- The horrible pacing because the author suffers from a total, irresistible compulsion to exhaust every single combinatorially possible interaction between pairs of Things What Go Boom that are on the battlefield right now, some of them twice, and we are not going away until he is done

Do other countries have their version of Waffle House (a chain restaurant with many locations serving crap diner-type food and known for being open late and fistfights more than the actual food quality)? Or is it just like, "the local pub" or something?

What I am asking is, do people throw hands at the Tim Hortons?

Lobok posted:

Maybe elsewhere in the country but around here that rep is usually held by McDonald's locations. And Tim's is more Dunkin' Donuts than Waffle House.

Capt.Whorebags posted:

Australia doesn't really have a homegrown chain as such (unless you count Hungry Jacks which is just a burger king re-skin) so McDonalds and KFC fill that ecological niche.

darkwasthenight posted:

Nobody fights in a Spoons because its either for casuals wanting a curry club meal deal, or terminals who think it's a waste of drinking time.

For the real ultra-violence you want to find a city centre McDonald's. One of the 24hr locations with bouncers and all the tables hidden upstairs so they can close it off. Something about the white tiles and endless touchscreens activates the lizard brain and next thing you're having to fight an entire hen party who want to shank you with plastic cock tiaras.

Tate is going to become a verb. Tating is a self own so powerful it goes beyond schadenfreude. Aw poo poo I tated myself! We'll have to rename the thread again.


For context, Andrew Tate is a fightman, rapist, and human trafficker seeking refuge in Romania after his own country didn't want him anymore for these very same reasons, who when Elon unbanned him from Twitter bragged about his additional climate transgressions to Greta Thunberg, who ultra trolled him so hard he had to geolocate himself to both the Romanian police and European anti human trafficking force GRETA, who wanted him very much indeed.


He likely cringed himself straight into Romanian prison.

Monday morning I took my mom to see the manatees. Whenever there's a cold snap and the water in the bay gets chilly, manatees like to hang out at the warm water outlet at the power plants. The power plants take in seawater, use it to cool things and stuff, and then put warmer water back into the bay. So you can really only catch them a few days out of the year. We both had monday off, and I figured it would be a nice trip. Also it's free. Afterwards we got brunch.

Here's a link to the website for more details https://www.tampaelectric.com/manatee/

But here's some pictures I took while I was there:

power plant


manatee hanging out under the boardwalk. The white mark on it's back is a scar from being hit by a boat. Sadly very common.


All the manatees hanging out by the warm water outlet


it was low tide so a bunch of them were hanging out on a sandbar. They popped their heads up a lot.


The leftmost grey blob is a baby manatee
