Tucker & Dale vs. Evil is a hilarious comedy horror movie. Such a fun take on the genre and so stupidly funny all the way through.

What is the most wholesome moment you've ever encountered?
I’m a nurse. I took care of a patient for about two weeks a few years ago. He had a huge family and had lots of people around him day and night. Everyone was so nice and created a very special room around him. One of the last days before he was discharged he asked if I had a minute to talk. He had done that a few times before just to chat, but this time he told me, that he was very happy that I had been around him to take care of him, and just kept telling me how I was a great part of making him feel well, and that he would never forget me.
His condition wasn’t the best, and I’m quite certain he has passed by now, but I still think about him every now and then. For a moment he just made me feel so special. I will never forget him.

Putin Unleashes Record Bombing in Ukraine as the World Watches Gaza

Unfortunately it’s not that easy.
They have already got a large sum of F16’s, but it takes training of Ukrainian pilots before they can be used in combat.
From what I understand they should be ready to fly in early 2024. That still a long time to go - but you don’t want to lose pilots or planes because of inexperience with that type of airplane.

18+ What's the most disturbing thing you have seen in the Internet?
I used to work in IT forensics - there’s nothing that will ever be worse than the things I saw there. People are freaking scary.
But outside work I’ve seen my part of shit, puke and other strange fetish videos, and people being blown up or driven down - being on the internet in the early days sort of made you numb to those things.
I will say that I saw a paper cut fetish video once. That shit hurt through the monitor.

What is something crazy that happened at work?
So once a year there is a bonus pool at around $10.000 which everyone can apply for if you think you have the arguments to convince the bosses.
So one of my coworkers applied but instead of just emailing the boss, she emailed everyone. This was an email mentioning how much better she was than most of the department, and then throwing a few coworkers under the bus, to make her look better.
It’s been a few years. She’s still there. She actually got the bonus. 🤷🏽♂️

TIL researchers recorded the brain waves of a dying person, they showed patterns similar to those occurring during memory recall.

Perhaps the brain - in a last attempt to save its life - searches every situation that it has ever experienced to try to find survival tips.

At this point I’m beginning to feel fine with it. If you care, switch to Firefox, you probably already did, if not, enjoy your ads.

Ubisoft blames ‘technical error’ for showing pop-up ads in Assassin’s Creed
Reply in thread
Absolutely agree. I was about to play the devils advocate and try to find ways, that this could happen by accident. If it was on PC it could’ve been the Ubisoft launcher (or whatever it’s called) which accidentally took window focus.
But this is on Xbox and PlayStation. That can only mean that it’s in the game files. That does neither happen by accident nor by technical error.
The only error could be, that it was enabled before they meant to. But no, this was 100% fishing for reactions.

The Supreme Court will hear a case with a lot of 'buts' & 'ifs' over the meaning of 'and'
Reply in thread
It’s basically explained in these three sections:
“In particular, the justices will be examining a so-called safety valve provision that is meant to spare low-level, nonviolent drug dealers who agree to plead guilty and cooperate with prosecutors from having to face often longer mandatory sentences.”
“The provision lists three criteria for allowing judges to forgo a mandatory minimum sentence that basically look to the severity of prior crimes. Congress did not make it easy by writing the section in the negative so that a judge can exercise discretion in sentencing if a defendant “does not have” three sorts of criminal history.”
“The question is how to determine eligibility for the safety valve — whether any of the conditions is enough to disqualify someone or whether it takes all three to be ineligible.”

Not that I think it’s a good idea, but to be fair, you’re only noticing the bad and extreme cases. There are subtle and fine cases too that just don’t draws attention to them.
