  • Why is every person involved in a movie listed in the credits?

    Jump

  • Also to note here. The credits used to be at the start of a film. Since it was at the beginning there were typically less people credited becaue there was less time. (You obviously didn't want to make people wait too long to see the film but long enough they could get into the theater with their snacks). Once it moved to the end, there was no reason to not include everyone.

    This is also why we got the post credit teaser or scene which was a directors way to force the audience to see the whole credits

  • What's an example of something that usually goes unnoticed when done well but very noticeable when done poorly or not done at all?

    Jump

  • I thought something similar until I tried a bay leaf tea to see what the flavor is. Put 1 leaf into boiling water like you are brewing a tea and give it a taste. It's a subtle umami flavor.

  • What flavor are marshmallows?

    Jump

  • Just talking about how marshmallows were orginally flavored with Marsh Mallow. Marshmallows are marshmallow flavored.

  • What flavor are marshmallows?

    Jump

  • Marshmallows are flavored by the marshmallow plant. Its root has a sweet taste and gooy texture. Pretty much all marshmallows now don't contain marshmallow root anymore.

  • Your right. I was thinking about pd.DateOffset()

  • old shows with important lesbian/bisexual women?

  • If you are interested in learning about queer representation on TV there's a great YouTube channel from Matt Baume who talks about the history of it. He also wrote a book about it: Hi Honey I'm Homo

    If you haven't looking into it there was a surprisingly a lot of good representation in the 70s. This all dropped off in the 80s because of Reagan.

  • Americans who live near state borders,how do you notice you've crossed the border?

  • I was going to say the firework signs are a sure sign you moved from Minnesota to Wisconsin.

  • Python does have a year option that they are not using. Depending on the application I would use 365 for a year to get a consistent number of days.

  • First-timer Installing Linux Mint

    Jump

  • I just installed mint for the first time as well. I did have some strange issue for an unsupported wifi adaptor. It's for my custom built desktop that's like 15 years old. I ended up getting a new kernel supported USB wifi. That was plug and play.

    The install process was so easy

  • Which cartoon foods did you always want to try?

  • Still want them

  • Which cartoon foods did you always want to try?

  • I thought they were rice.

  • I've had them in real life. But they look so good in Pokemon. Also that was years after I saw them

  • I have always wanted to eat the rice balls from Pokemon:

  • Goodbye, $165,000 Tech Jobs. Student Coders Seek Work at Chipotle.

    Jump

  • Its hard because I wouldn't envy any new tech job seekers out there. From what I can see there aren't any entry level jobs in the field that being said I don't know what degree I would suggest that would have a good future career out of. I went into Data Science 8 years ago because it was going to be the high paying job of the future. I wouldn't recommend that now because there are no entry level jobs and those that exist are usually filled quickly

  • How did you survive living in a college dorm with another person? What did you bring with yourself?

    Jump

  • If you need some places to be alone to recharge either while eating or other times during the day. There will be lots of those around but might need to look for them but they are usually in libraries or quiet buildings.

    It seems like you love computers, networking, self hosting and other technology related hobbies. You may be afraid to meet new people but the good news if you give yourself the opportunity these hobbies will have lots of people to do these things with. If you are doing anything in that field of study these people will be in your classes and the same thing if you join a group or club in that area. These will be your people and you will have lots in commons. Search out and find them

  • In the Future All Food Will Be Cooked in a Microwave, and if You Can’t Deal With That Then You Need to Get Out of the Kitchen

    Jump

  • My favorite part was all the talk about how the kitchen was going to the size of a closet right next to the idea that you need 100 microwaves to make one good meal. Exactly the tech-bro pitch

  • What things that are legal today could become illegal in 50 years?

    Jump

  • If right-wing nutjobs keep running the government I am going to say "birth control" and "sodomy" are on the chopping block. Hopefully by 50 years this won't still be the issue but its what they want now. Just to note that the old "sodomy" laws made everything that wasn't PIV illegal. So if you like oral sex that will be illegal now. Sorry everyone no more fun

  • Exploring sexuality within a closed monogamous relationship. Questions(s)?

    Jump

  • I think anything that's let's you hear and think about sex and sexuality would help on exploring without any of the more porny aspects. I love Dan Savage podcast and column which is all about sex and relationships. Hearing about other people sex lives and problem will help you see a variety of different things about relationships structures, sex, kink and sexuality. Some will be interested in learning more others might give you the Ick. All good to know.

    In a similar vein would be the standard kink and sex books. Those range from steamy to clinical in their handling. Worth checking books out
