Can this keep num lock engaged? I swear my biggest frustration with windows lately is it's habit of randomly and arbitrarily turning off numlock after I've turned it on. I never turn off numlock while working. I never use the number pad arrows. I prefer the number pad numbers and use them practically all day. And yet, several times a day I find my cursor moving around the screen instead of typing a number because windows decided that it got to control the numlock function instead of me and the dedicated light up key designed for that function that has worked fine for me for decades before.

Kinetic energy scales not just with velocity, but with the square of velocity. Speed makes a BIG FUCKING difference in your ability to avoid an accident.

No metal + oxygen = rust and sometimes that reaction is encouraged by a catalyst that remains in contact with both. You think they're going to go to all that trouble and not going to rinse and dry the tank when they're done?

Either way, you can put passengers in the back of an SUV, but not in the bed of a truck (without breaking laws or being totally unsafe).

Right? Most of those are all the kinds of regular maintenance things you button up BEFORE a long trip. Windshield cracks are usually either quick fixes or fixes that can be delayed or patched until you finish the trip.

Frequent enough stops to limits butt pain and blood clots isn't such a bad idea though.

Marshmallows are like ogres, you've got to torch and eat the layers bit by bit before you slurp the gooey center.

Agreed. 90 minutes to go 2.3 miles sounds like a snails pace. That works out to just under 40 minutes to walk a mile. Most healthy adults should be able to jog or fast walk a mile in under 15 minutes. A 5k is about 3.1 miles and most of the slow runners finish in 30-40 minutes. I would consider 25 minutes per mile a leisurely pace. 40 minutes per mile must mean a lot of signalized intersections. I've found a mile or two is the perfect distance to walk home from the bar after a night out (weather dependent obviously). Maybe Google thinks they'll be walking drunk?

There is a reason that I have fallen asleep during the extended 3rd act fight scene in every single god damn marvel movie since Mark Ruffalo became the Hulk.

They all turn into the same movie, with the same fight. And these super long fights all seem to be surprisingly light on showing any of the actual real world impacts of such violence. Nobody ever gets seriously hurt unless the plot needs more sacrifice. But even when they do, the injuries mostly happen off camera and the blood never flows or spurts, it just instantly appears as makeup. It's really giving people a deep rooted and totally unfounded sense that violence both solves every problem (it doesn't) and does so bloodlessly (it doesn't). At least Batman knows he's not a hero.

But really, the DC universe isn't much better. Think about how shocking a little bit of blood at the beginning of the new Superman movie was, before they basically destroy metropolis (which was rather expected and mundane). And then they only show the tiny fraction of people personally saved by Superman, not the countless mangled corpses buried under rubble. This may be why the public has trouble confronting the realities of war and violence.

Dude I'm not arguing that it's correct or not, I'm saying that this is the way many people used to (and how some still do) use the language.

Yeah, that's why my comment was basically words and phrases have shifting connotations as time passes and contexts change.

They were also inconveniently experiencing significant negative feedback to their business decision to sell warmed up day old food as a standard operating procedure just before new of the logo drama erupted. If you thought cracker barrel was extremely mid before, it's apparently gone full Applebee's microwave kitchen bad lately.
