this meme, but unironically
a variation on the ironic meme "Stop Doing Math", but unironically invoked for the sentiment "Stop using dishwasher tablets/pod, use loose powder instead". Three examples of dishwasher tablets and pods are shown. The caption reads: Stop using pods! DISHWASHER POWDER WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO COME IN FIXED-SIZE TABLETS YEARS OF WASHING yet NO REAL WORLD EVIDENCE that SAME POWDER in a pod is better at washing the dishes Yes, please give me EXTRA PLASTIC and DYE that is going down the drain" - statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged LOOK at what the BIG POD has been selling you for extra profit for all this time, with their FAKE innovation (These are REAL products, sold in REAL stores) They have played us for absolute fools

Captain Picard, thoughtfully holding his chin with his left hand, sitting in front of a patterned wall, which is lit in blue light. The caption reads: "With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied – chains us all irrevocably. Those words were uttered by Judge Aaron Satie, as wisdom and warning. The first time any man's freedom is trodden on, we're all damaged."

Some Git UIs have it. For example, IntelliJ's Git integration.
Under the hood it does a Git rebase, "hidden" from the user.

In #Firefox, type % in the address bar for search in Tabs. ^ searches History.
Mnemonic: these two are aligned on the keyboard with the first letter.

* = ⭐ = search in Bookmarks is a more obvious visual reference

"physical certainty of things" reminded me of this tumblr gem:
A series of Tumblr posts by user cryptotheism. First post: "Man, the flesh sucks. I'm gonna abandon it for the machine." Second post: "Hey was anyone gonna telle that the machine is also subject to change? The nature of my decay is just different now. Shit sucks. I'm gonna abandon the machine for the divine." Third: "Bad news about the divine".

Are the pairs of video and audio circled "grouped" in Blender? That is, if you need a cut in both, do you have to do it once per pair or twice per pair?

Screenshot of the TV show "Friends". A dejected Joey Tribbiani is standing in the New York subway next to an advertisement poster on a tiled wall. The poster has a black-and-white photo of Joey with the text "what Mario isn't telling you... // VD // You never know who might have it. // City FREE Clinic (212)555-6381".

Tweet by @pookleblinky «Every heartwarming human interest story in america is like "he raised $20,000 to keep 200 orphans from being crushed in the orphan-crushing machine" and then never asks why an orphan-crushing machine exists or why you'd need to pay to prevent it from being used.» Tweeted on 10:56 PM- 24 Sep 2020
