Linus does not fuck around
I like the discussion this has generated around toxicity and professionalism, but I'm still very amused by the fact that he censored himself in the last line after not doing so for the rest of the message.

Tesla Gigafactory Berlin
Saw a video about this on Mastodon. It looks like they projected a whole video presentation that outlines a bunch of the Nazi shit Musk has done, not just the image of his salute.

Senate votes against Sanders resolution to force human rights scrutiny over Israel aid
The measure was a first-of-its-kind tapping into a decades-old law that would require the US state department to, within 30 days, produce a report on whether the Israeli war effort in Gaza is violating human rights and international accords. If the administration failed to do so, US military aid to Israel, long assured without question, could be quickly halted.
Those senators must be pretty confident that a report would find human rights violations. Why would they oppose it otherwise?

"Now everyone will have an easy reference table at hand!"
I was a chemistry major in college. The tests all came with a periodic table for reference. Didn't have to memorize a thing. We were even allowed to use calculators! High school was full of lies.

How to find great Chinese food
The variation I’ve seen at some of the places near me is that the husband and wife are both in the kitchen and the 10-year old is taking the orders.

Just speak normally
When I was a child, I lived in walking distance of my elementary school. One time my mom had to work early so she couldn't be there to see me off to school. I was old enough to walk by myself at that point, but I relied on her to tell me when to go. Since she wasn't going to be there, she told me to leave at "quarter after 7" so I could be there on time.
I left at 7:25 because a quarter is 25, right?
I got in trouble for being late to school. Instructions unclear, Mom!

The movie came out 21 years ago, and I still think of it frequently when I drive.
I've never seen any of the Final Destination movies, but the seeing trailer was still enough to make me stay away from the log trucks.

Maybe for some lucky folks. I get Christmas Day. If the boss is feeling generous hey may let us leave early on Christmas Eve. We’re off for Easter, but since we’re closed on Sunday anyway it’s not actually a holiday.

And when you take the screenshot and crop it, there's a share button at the top you can use to send it. The share screen shows buttons for your most recent text contacts, so it's really easy to accidentally tap the wrong person this way.

I saw a Prius on the road the other day that had a decal on the back with big block letters proclaiming, "NOT A LIBERAL". I wouldn't've noticed a random Prius driving down the road, but they just had to call attention to themselves to let everyone know their political leanings. I figure it's more to let their conservative friends know that they're still an asshole even if they got a more eco-friendly vehicle.

I think it depends on your intended audience. If what you’re filming is meant to be viewed on a phone, then vertical makes sense. If the video is meant to be viewed on a TV, movie screen, or computer monitor, then rotate your phone.
