It was more literal than that IIRC. The gods were pissed at first but chilled out once the smells of the mortals cooking meat went up to Olympus. The only guy to suffer was poor Prometheus; condemned to have his liver eaten by an eagle as he remains chained to a mountain side.

The only way to convince you this is wrong is if you get swatted and have your dog killed for barking too much in front of you while cuffed.

They were called popcorn balls in my localization.

Archaeologists thousands of years later will be debating the religious meaning of all the big golden arches spread out across the continent.

Maybe they should hire more people to fill in the gaps to those who leave for the week after 4 days. Everyone deserves 4 day work weeks at minimum.

Just watch out for viruses.

The cop was probably betting against the Dolphins.

I built my Gen Z nephew a PC with a GTX 950 a few years back. When I went by to gift him a new video card I found out that he hooked up his video output from the motherboard the whole time. Don’t know how that reflects on all kids from his generation but it was kinda funny.

The sulfates in wine can give me a headache before a buzz even settles in. It’s much easier to enjoy a latte and an edible.

At least we don’t have prohibition to worry about this time. Way easier to take the edge off all these stories.

I don’t have a thermocouple to slide into the freezer but I can confidently say water and even broth (which should have a freezing point depression due to the added salt) stays frozen no matter what temperature setting I pick and the time of day. It’s very likely then that it stays below 0 degrees C.

Please see the post. Tillamook, Dryer’s, and Target’s in-house brand.

Experimenting with the freezer’s settings didn’t cause too much of a change with the ice cream’s texture. Max and minimum temperatures had pretty much no impact. I’ve even opened the tub right after purchasing and it still had the same issue. If the store’s freezers couldn’t keep it somewhat solid, then I can only assume it’s deliberately been made this way now.

You don’t get to say “No” to YouTube, Microsoft, or the thousands of websites that ask to you to give them your email. There’s only a “Maybe later”.

Reject local names. Embrace “carbonated beverage”. All will unite under the technically correct name.

Kid’s toys? Only other thing I can think of is love hotels but that’s not exactly a manufactured product.

Imagine how far you can go on 8GB of RAM if every piece of software were still well optimized and free of bloat.

Got laid off four times when I was a temp worker for all of them. First time was when a major customer had a downturn in the oil market and I was the obvious choice by being one of the latest hires. I was brought in for a 15 minute meeting in the only conference room of the office and perp walked out by my asshole manager that same hour.

The other three were due to the contracts timing out (CA law forces companies to either convert contract workers to FTE after 2 years or lay them off). It’s a lot less shocking when you know the date but it still sucks to count down the time. It didn’t hurt to leave so much considering temp workers were treated as second class citizens like being excluded from company parties or not receiving bonuses so it was hard to get attached.

Thanks for the tip! Gonna have to try it out one day. My problem is I have to go work in places with very spotty service without WiFi so it helps to just have everything on board.
