It could be worse…

Wait… So if we just get rid of Earth’s magnetic field, solar winds will solve global warming?

Crisis averted!

The 85-year-old actor will “make a speedy and full recovery” and is in “good spirits,” his spokesperson said.

Glad to hear it!

No match for a car door.

Somehow, we’re using the same language.

He was also slaughtered for his delicious belly meat.

can’t even subtract from a timer (it can add, though!)

“Ok, Google, add -5 minutes to the timer”

It either explodes, or you start getting notifications in the past. Seems like a possible win, either way.

people just think its easier to just have tabs sitting around rather than use bookmark

Mentally, I find that leaving a tab open says “I’ll get to that soon”, where a bookmark says “maybe I’ll need that someday”. “Soon” might still be two weeks from now, but “someday” might as well be never.

Bookmarks just aren’t as visible. Think of it like having things that you need to do laid out on a countertop vs having them in a drawer. If you walk by the counter and have a minute to spare, you can see what you might be able to accomplish in that time and check something off. It feels like you need a lot more free time to even want to open the drawer.

Also, managing bookmarks just looks daunting, and the more you have, the worse it gets. When I’m done with a tab, I just close it.

Sometimes, I’ll use the bookmark toolbar, but I don’t see how that’s better than tabs, visually. It just has better persistence.

Lastly, leaving a tab open can also be used like a post-it note to remind me to do something by a certain date. Every time I see it, it acts as a little reminder so that the thing doesn’t fall off my radar. That one gets a little tricky if you have so many tabs open that you have to scroll. I try not to let it get that bad, though.

Relevant xkcd

I had a friend in high school. We were at a gas station, and he went in to get some additive to put in his tank. On the way back to his car he unscrewed the cap, and took a big swig. The bottle still had the foil cap, so he wasn’t actually drinking anything; he just did it for the reaction. The thing was, he didn’t actually check if anyone was watching.

Sometimes people are just weird…

I’m not saying that you have a problem, but I will point out that this sounds like the kind of thinking that can lead to eating disorders.

It’s possible to eat less and not always feel hungry. It’s just not easy. Turning hunger into a “good” thing isn’t actually a healthy approach to dieting.

Now, I’m not a countamatician, but that sounds like more than the 50 states (and fourteen territories).

Who’s double-dipping?

They really shouldn’t. It is a monument to man’s arrogance.
