I remember this joke usually involving eggs. But I suppose that had to be changed, for reasons.

Right? It will probably mostly impact poor people, so who cares!

Just depends on the location. In some places the climate is projected to become milder.

It will likely not make the planet inhospitable to all people, just some. In fact, a bunch of people will benefit from it, like those living in colder climates (at least for some time).

They would just build climate-controlled domes.

Then I misunderstood and was thinking of a different adjustment of the head. The one I was thinking about us when you wedge the screwdriver behind the head and bend it otwards a little for better contact. For that you need a flat tool.

Don't you use a flathead for that?

"Iela" means "street" in Latvian, so yeah.

Speaking of, my favorite street in Riga is Lielā iela. If for nothing else, then just for how that name sounds. But also "lielā" (feminine of "liels") means "big", but Lielā iela ("Big Street") is tiny, just one car wide (for the most part) and is barely even visible on the map.

That's how Google always worked, btw. But there is one obvious benefit to showing the original URL before you click it, you can hover it to see where the link actually leads before they hijack the click.

How can one be chronologically disappointed? Did you mean "chronically"?
