How much should a pool noodle be?

I can do it if what I want to do is to extract a .tar.gz or .tar.bz2. Anything else is a myth

Man, I have no interest in racing but that was a great film. Just perfect execution.

I’m not really seeing an argument for why the meaning of the term can’t evolve, just like “stupid” did. And I’m definitely not clear what you’re trying to convey when taking about OCD and PTSD - we’re already agreed that there are two different relevant meanings to “retarded”.

But any choice that can be justified, for example as “I don’t believe this AI thing is going to be all that and we should remain focused on our consumer markets for long term growth” immediately nixes any complaint about fiduciary duty. I mean unless the board can produce evidence that that’s a lie.

What do you use it for nowadays?

It means “stupid” (which itself had a specific meaning ages ago)

I thought it was my parents that were angry?

sweating and some glue

This is the only time I am aware of the Trump administration doing anything classy - wtf

That’s not what it means any more
