The real Linus Tech Tips (now with 100% less sexual harrassment).

That's fair. Demi did mention consent in her lyrics. I interpreted that a bit differently (that she may have felt too young to fully understand consent, not that she felt she was violated without consent). But I see your point.

Grooming and propriety are entirely different standards from rape. From what I gathered, they were claiming the former. Valderamma is being accused here of being a creepy sleazebag, not a criminal child rapist.

Rubber and nylon are both soft and are less likely to damage whatever you are hammering, but rubber is even softer and bouncier than nylon. I would use rubber when pounding wooden pieces of furniture together, but nylon would work better for forming soft metal like jewelry. Other specialty hammers like brass and copper are non-sparking and non-magnetic for use around flammable gases and sensitive equipment. They continue up the hardness scale -- brass for softer applications and copper when you need more force. Finally, you have you traditional steel hammer that is usually made out of hardened steel and would really mess up that soft wood from earlier if you tried striking it directly.

The person you're replying to said it was grooming and inappropriate. Don't move the fucking goalposts.

Have you never met an American? Look at it from the perspective of an inferiority complex and you may begin to understand.

No. It may be proof that standardized tests are not useful measures of LLM intelligence, but human brains operate differently from LLMs, so these tests may still be very useful measures of human intelligence.

You think that's absurd? Have you never gotten married? Wedding photos are extremely important and while "she almost vomited" may be hyperbole, I can definitely understand being very pissed off if that was the only version of the photo. Our wedding photographer whitened our teeth in our photos and we requested that they undo that so we look like ourselves. The sentiment was nice, but we didn't want that. I would have been pretty unhappy if they hadn't held onto the originals and were unable to revert our teeth back to their normal shades. Photos of our bridal showers and dress hunting were nearly as important as the wedding photos themselves. I can understand being upset with this undesired result.

Same! I'm pretty sure that was also my smallest phone, before they started going the other direction.

Detroit Michigan, "motor city", is home to a lot of car manufacturers and also much crime.

I prefer Sidebery to Tree Style Tab. I've used both quite a bit, but I really like Sidebery's snapshot option to save and reload snapshots of your session, either manually or on a schedule.

That article indicates that isolated phytates resulted in reduced absorption of calcium, iron, and zinc, but no significant effect was found when consumed in a matrix. Furthermore, phytate-containing grains tended to contain other compounds such as fermentable fiber that increased the bioavailability of those minerals, resulting in very little effect. So if that's the only evidence we have to go by, it doesn't sound like oatmeal is going to prevent you from absorbing the nutrients from fruits and veggies you eat with it, nor does if have any affect on the other nutritional benefits derived from oats.
