This is what's bothering me:( I don't want giant tablet hybrid looking thing Nintendo!!
(Attachment Link)

It's the perfect device for young professionals with lots of friends!

but I'm a man-child with no friends and no social life. The reason I love my 3ds is that I get to ignore those around me.

Picnic tables, uncomfortable Volkswagon bugs, and basketball. All these things come bundled with the Switch Nintendo

Noctua is all hype..
exactly

hmm there a cheaper option as quiet?  I only needed two fans for my entire PC, so I just went for it


Run Open Chassis, get antec 2-cool fans. Hook up to analogue fan controller.. Lower until you don't hear it above the ambient noise level..

you can use any fan with sleeve bearing to achieve silence,  antec 2-cool is just the ones I know of that are cheap, have a Small-diameter spindle, and has sleeve bearing.

Just get a cargo van and be pro about it. One Switch Nintendo tablet thing per seat. Nintendo is trying to pull in the bohemians and skaters from the 90s :)

Agreed to cover for a coworker next week.  I was out in the field most of the day getting ahead of my own work so I could cover.  I come in to find the work dumped on my desk with absolutely no prep work even though I go in to court on Monday morning.  Thanks.

Battle.net updated and now it won't launch. It has updated in the past without issue. I've even updated WoW without issue. Today was just not my day.

Star Wars Battlefront wont launch despite it being fine in the past.  Might be time to slick that.

Digestive system is upset with me after consuming 3 hot links, a fair sized piece of lasagna, and some tri-tip at a friends BBQ / potluck yesterday.  I can't imagine why :)

I hear you. I have a pair of boots that are great in every way except that the heels must be a maybe a quarter of an inch (1 cm) higher than anything else and they kill me. I have seriously considered taking my hacksaw to them, because I really like them otherwise.

I don't know how women do it ....
"However, even though I was born in the Mesozoic, I do know what anyone who wants to reach out to young people should say: Billionaires took your money. They took your chance to buy a home. They took your chance at a good education. They stole your opportunities. Billionaires took the things you want in life. If you really want those things, you have to take them back.
That's the message. That's the whole message. Say that every day, not just to reach America's frustrated young white men, but people of every age, race, and gender.
Late-stage capitalism is a wealth-concentration engine, focused on vacuuming up every dollar and putting it in as few hands as possible. Republicans are helping that vacuum suck.
How does a tiny fraction of the population get away with this? They do it by dividing the other 99% of Americans against themselves."

High heels makes a female look more - feminine - ..

Most obviously it makes a female look taller,  but it's not actually being tall that matters, what makes it LOOK GOOD,  is actually the leg to height ratio..

Females generally have longer legs than males of the same height. so this is a feature the males look for during target acquisition and differentiation.

The forward weight shift does 2 things

____it creates an arch in the small of the female's back,  resulting in more curvature to the standing posture and a slight forward thrust of the chest..

____it also shifts weight to the ball of their feet forcing their lower leg muscles to contract, giving them a more toned look than wearing flats..


Lastly, because heels are very unstable to walk in, as they do not allow much longitudinal roll.  walking in them requires more rotation at the hip..

The combination of

_Leg to height ratio
_Arched back
_Toned lower leg
_Greater hip-swing..


is what adds to the perceived femininity upon wearing high heels..


Does it work ?   obviously it does, they're all wearing um'..
