We don't know that's what he did, there aren't even timestamps on this. If I text you a joke now, and then don't get anything back, and then I send you a follow-up text saying "I was just joking", and then sometime after that you get back to your phone and see the joke and the follow-up, no one can assume you only texted because of the follow-up.

Maybe you got my first one and said "screw them" and waited for an apology, maybe you didn't get the first one until after the second had been sent and saw them both together and replied to both, or maybe you saw the first and went "heh" but forgot to actually respond to me in the moment, and it wasn't until after the second came through that you went "ah shit, right"

But only the receiver can know which is which.

Anyways! I don't give a shit about Tiger Woods, I just hate miscommunication and assumptions of ill-intent, and I've seen first hand too many times a person who is more connected drawing all sorts of conclusions for what a silence might mean, or how mad someone must be, or reading into a gap that simply isn't there. The receiver just is doing something, they're not on their couch staring at their phone, and the sender is spinning out all sorts of stories to explain how they're being ignored or attacked. It's anxiety.

No words, it's the liney version of loss...

Mother fu...

Basically, the current King is the King of Canada, and also the King of the UK, and also the King of 13 other places. So this one dude is king of many places, but there's otherwise no connection between the governments of Canada and the UK, or Australia, etc.

So we're an independent nation, but in an open relationship with our monarch.

They start learning to be a terror so soon... 🥲

I don't think they were commenting on the lack of vehicle, I think it was more about the wheelchair in the sand and the surf. I'd assume it's not exactly an ideal environment for a quick escape, but hey, I could be wrong, I've never tried it!

You're not directly wrong, but the theoretical, philosophical, answer is that the social will that allows ICE to operate, or cops to thug about, is that people feel that there is dangerous lawlessness out there, and the only way to solve it is strong force. And sometimes a few eggs need to get cracked, but it's okay because they deserved it.

So none of the things listed here prevent ICE, but ICE is powered by fear of "the criminals", and if we solve the "criminal problem" with real solutions, suddenly it gets a lot harder to motive a brute squad when everyone is fine actually. And I don't mean "the officers are fine" or "the would-be victims are fine", I mean the random citizens sitting at home, already feeling secured without the police force in military gear.

And I mean maybe at least some of the shitty dudes are there due to broken homes fractured by substance abuse or financial stresses, or are themselves victims of fetal alcohol syndrome or something, which could possibly be lessened with tighter social circles and safety nets.

As you your other point, unions specifically address wage theft and would impact Bezos for sure. At least assuming "theoretically ideal" unions.

Maybe you're actually into clavicles

Possibly even as far as feedback, but yeah not really recursion.

The funny thing is that they obviously didn't have blue tint on the day, so this picture is probably exactly what it looked like while they were doing it.

No music, no sound effects, no graphics. Behind the scenes footage is so awkward it's amazing any movie gets made, and I love it.

I have friends that daily drive BSD, but I never have. For me it's because Open Source is already a small field, and Linux solves all the problems I have, while also having the most mind-share, focus, and community. I want it to be FOSS for ethics, which Linux is, but otherwise don't need anything that BSD offers, so there's no reason for me to attempt anything more. If there's even one compatibility problem, it'd be one too many for no benefit.

That having been said, I do donate money every month to one of them, because I like that they exist. So that's probably weird...

Yeah, the eye flow is all messed up. The third panel, as it is, convinced my brain to switch to anime order to make sense, and then I read the fourth panel backwards and it made no sense.

I get the problem you had, but maybe the layout of something else could have been fixed? Because as-is I think the third panel sabotaged the whole comic...

I basically agree with you, but I'm also a little pedantic, so I'll also say that if the standard format isn't the format MSOffice outputs, then the standard format isn't the format everyone is using, they're using a similar but incompatibly different format. And so if there's an opportunity to pick what the standard must be going forwards, and the actual true OOXML spec has effectively zero users, and what MSOffice outputs isn't an open standard, then you might as well pick ODF which has more than zero users and is standardized.

But again, this is moot if the thing MSOffice outputs is actually actually OOXML now.
