So the point is that it's anti-racist because it's calling the racist person under the hood a coward, is that it?

Because it just looks like a racist person calling the person drinking it a coward.

Also why would you want to drink a KKK person.

I don't understand any of this.

Why not just make something like an IPA IPA (International People's Acceptance Indian Pale Ale) and just put a fucking picture of people of all ethnicities helping each other out or something. Boom done.

I've been looking around, there are plenty of positions out there for someone with this education, plus I'll have 20 years of experience in other fields under my belt which won't hurt. The Department of Labor projects that Geography/GIS jobs are going to increase by 15% between 2018 and 2028, so it's not like a dying science.

jcmason posted...
Some schools offer a double major program, would you be interested in doing both? Or a custom merged program that covers a bit of both fields.

Yes, this university offers Computer Science or Sustainability as a double major. Computer Science seems like the obvious choice, but a *lot* of the Geography/GIS curriculum satisfies the requirements for Sustainability.

Flip a coin

It might straight up come down to that...

I had a hard time choosing a program I like, because I was never too drawn towards college. But when I saw this offered I thought it would be a great way to study a hard science with some culture and history mixed in. But my wife and I were speaking about it last night and I started to remember how I liked our class field trips to sample the water and test its quality from the local creek, and studying rocks, as a kid and I realized maybe Environmental Sciences would be a good choice, too...

My dad was a chemical scientist so that would be more like continuing his legacy.

Geospatial Intelligence

Mapping/GIS is used in a lot of different fields, such as studying environmental change, demographic/sociological changes, archeology (especially when certified with certain remote sensors), emergency response planning, tracking disease outbreaks, that kind of stuff.

In middle school I enrolled in wood working but I was getting headaches in the shop so after a couple of classes I switched to Introduction to Technology.

In high school I did take Print (Print Shop?) as a class, where you learned to set type and develop film. THAT teacher was retiring that year so he didn't give a shit at all, got an A just for organizing the type set at the end of the semester.

The co-op in Ghost Recon: Wildlands was perfect. Progress was saved for all players, you could replay missions, and the map was based on the progress of the host so if your friend just started playing you could join them and help them clear everything out.

I don't know what it was like in Breakpoint.

Far Cry 5 was terrible just because it was only worth it for the host.

Well no, but not because of mandatory mask wear. It's the fact that masks aren't a magical 100% preventive measure against infection. So I wouldn't go on vacation if mask where is required in the current conditions because it's unnecessarily exposing yourself to a threat.

In general I wear masks all the time when in public and outside anyway, so I don't have a problem with mask wear itself.

The problem is that that line, like almost all of his speech, is crude, disrespectful and demonstrates his racist tendencies.

A better educated and wiser politician would comment on illegal immigration in a different manner. Perhaps drawing attention to the fact that it's dangerous for the people involved, that they potentially face issues with getting health care when they do arrive in the country, stuff like that. Not just say "we don't want them because they're a bunch of rapists".

I haven't played the series since AC3 because I hated the stealth and combat.

do enemies still attack you one at a time?
It's a lot different now - Origins and Odyssey play more like adventure RPGs a la Witcher 3 where stealth is even more optional than before. Odyssey is more punishing in this respect though, since you get a lot more enemies on you at a time and bounty hunters can come into play.

It would be fun if the enemies didn't scale with you and turn them into ... bullet sponges.

edit: Also don't know why people like 4 but not Rogue since it's essentially an improved version of the game with a tighter story to it.

In all honesty, I never understood this.

To me, in the clip, it sounds like he's saying "They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime, their rapists." Like, it sounds like he's listing them versus randomly saying "they're rapists!" It just makes more sense to me and it sounds like that.

And I say this as someone who hates Trump, his garbage supporters, and would vote for used toilet paper if it was the Dem nominee.
It's the fact that he made it sound like the Mexican government was specifically and intentionally sending criminals into the US. Or that illegal immigrants are *all* rapists and killers.

Regardless of where I shit, I wipe until clean. I don't understand your folding thing you're talking about though.
Say you take 3-4 squares of toilet paper. You fold it over so it is like two squares and wipe, then fold it over so it is like one square and wipe. Saves toilet paper imo. Of course I don't do that if it's like really messy but for subsequent wipes it makes sense.

Its called context. No one wants deaths, but shutting down the livelihoods of millions for something on par with the flu in terms of deaths, when nothing was shut down for the flu. Context matters. Thats why people bring it up.

Economical, social, and cultural impacts should be considered before shutting things down. Thats why alcohol isnt banned, the deaths related to alcohol dont outweigh all those other factors.
It's a bad take. We had no idea what the effects of COVID-19 were when it started, and we saw how other countries were dealing with it. We should have followed their lead - things would have legitimately been safely reopening already if we had.

Don't know why people compare this to something like alcohol, either. Alcohol use isn't contagious or uncontrollable.

As someone who has watched many vlogs of people who've gone to Disney World, Universal, and SeaWorld post covid it looks fairly safe in the parks.

Like their crowd levels are very low and thus very manageable. Disney and Universal (not as much for Seaworld) have done a good job enforcing mask wearing and social distancing.
I'm still really confused how they can operate a park safely. There are so many points of contact everywhere, I feel like it would be impossible to keep everything clean, unless they're doing a full wipedown of each ride vehicle afterwards. Even then I feel like someone could sneeze or something in a spot that doesn't get wiped down.

The only reason I feel any sort of excitement about it is that the lines are probably the shortest they'll ever be in history. But that's not worth the risk of getting sick.

They should name it something like Vast and Furious.

The night I got kidnapped/robbed at gunpoint. The way the guys outside the cinema kept offering us to "hold" this $20 if we took them to the gas station down the road to meet their friends was really off-putting, plus the idea that they had to go to the gas station instead of their friends coming to the cinema that is a minute away was also really strange.

I was too naive back then though, had a few opportunities to try to speak out - the bar a couple hundred meters away was still open and a security guard drove close by once - but I didn't do anything -_-

It's not a rule or law, just a common sense security recommendation since a government-controlled device that requires frequent number changes and has certain features removed/disabled is a harder target to crack than a personal device.

Donald is just a moron who doesn't care about anything but himself so of course he would insist on keeping his own phone.

I read about another 30 year old man who died from it after going to a covid party because he didn't think it was real.

I have a strong sneaking suspicion that people are going to just disregard this as "fake news" though.

they need to be called out and voted against

but living as a trump supporter is its own kind of punishment

That's like saying "thinking COVID-19 is a hoax is its own kind of punishment since you're only going to get yourself sick". Except in this case their political ignorance has an effect on everyone else.
