I was working outside this week (Southern US) and it was an absolutely miserable week. After a half an hour I was drenched in sweat, and it was rolling off my hard hat, getting in my eyes, and I was forced to pace myself and work much slower than I would otherwise be able to do because the heat was that intense.

I was able to drink some of my coconut water reserve because it has the things plants crave.

It's definitely the worst summer heat I've felt since ever.

Dude they sell our data to advertisers and big data for profit. The least they can do is provide some services for us for the amount of analytics they collect from us on a daily basis.

I can think of only a few reasons why the military would have you take training in Texas:

  • Gunslingin' with revolvers, single and akimbo

  • Practicing the perfect "Yeehaw"

  • Wrasslin'

  • Combat maneuver training in boots with spurs

  • Lasso training

She's the best thing that's happened to the s scientific publishing field. I'm no longer a student but I still enjoy reading scientific papers and I'll be damned if I have to pay $20 per article (which doesn't go to the authors) since I no longer have access to a library that maintains relationships with these big publishers.

That's some nice air you have in the server room.

It would be a shame if it were replaced with Halon-134...

Calling such people Nazis is counter productive and only inflames the current issues at hand.

If they talk like a Nazi, act like a Nazi, or sympathize with Nazis, I'm gonna call them a Nazi. There's no room to be tolerant here, Nazis have zero place in our society. And those that are Nazis are right wing and hide within the Republican party. That doesn't make them any less of a Nazi, and we should call them out on it.

This one has a cloth like padding at the forehead, it collects the sweat but gets saturated and beads up on the front and rolls off.

It's nice to have if it isn't a lot of sweat, but when your entire face is drenched, it does that.

That's why I believe that the username crisis is real. Future generations won't have short usernames and will have to use increasingly longer usernames to have a unique one, or have a Redditesque default [word1][word2][4numbers].

We might as well just go all out and just have everyone use a UUID with minimal chances of username collision.

Why then is extremist, explicitly Nazi rhetoric so pervasive within the Republican ranks? A good example of this is the United The Right rally in Charlottesville. The Nazis present were not condemned by the leader of the Republican party at that time when it would be the easiest thing for him to do. This tacit implicit support emboldens them for future action. Any sensible President would have denounced Nazis and their actions, especially as a woman was killed as a result of their actions.
