The majority of humans won't survive the next 100 years, because almost nobody lives to be 100.

Do you mean that the majority of people currently alive will die due to climate change?
Do you mean that humanity's population will drop by over 50% and will not recover?
Do you mean that in the future, the majority of deaths will be due to climate change, even in 200 years from now when the new (much hotter) equilibrium will be all anyone has ever known?

 

She is so proud of me, she tells everyone

Bond is supposed to be sexy AF.

That makes him a bad spy, but a good protagonist.

Huge difference.

As a kid I saw an annular solar eclipse (ring of fire) and thought it was pretty neat, but I wasn't that excited for the recent total eclipse. Decided that I might as well just drive the few hours to give my young son the full experience.
WOW what a difference it made when that last sliver of sun got eclipsed. Incomparable.

They're also absolutely OP in a pillow fight (I got one when I was like 10, and never looked back)

We still live in a society governed by laws and morals.

Straight to jail.

Is this a thing he already did, or that they expect him to do?

I also feel like everyone seems to be missing that we're taking about degradation, which isn't usually "no js at all", it's some subset that isn't supported. People use feature detection to find out of some feature is supported in the browser and if it's not the they don't enable the feature the depends on it.

For the chat example, you could argue that a chat can degrade into a bulletin board, but I'd argue that people use chat for realtime messaging so js is needed for the base use case.

If your webpage primarily just displays static information, then I agree that it should work without js or css. Like Wikipedia, or a blog, or news, or a product marketing page, or a forum/BBS.
But there is a huge part of the web that this simply doesn't apply to, and it's not realistic to have them put in huge effort to support what can only be a broken experience for a fraction of a percent of users.

They know ssr is a thing which is why they used that term. But ssr produces a static page or static component, where webapps often require some level of interactivity for their basic functionality, such as reacting to server events. They're asking if that can be achieved with ssr

Maybe I'm out of the loop because I do mostly backend, but how do you update the chat window when new chats come in, without JavaScript?

 

I cum in the shower, instead.

 

Imagine living in a universe where, without even trying, you can run so fast that if you trip, you will die and splatter your body over a couple hundred meters of ground. And if you trip into someone, it'll kill them and possibly an entire pile of people.

Like, in motor racing, the cars get wrecked but the drivers are fine. In the movie Cars, they all die. The race spectators are watching a blood sport.

 

What is a bread roll if not all crust?
What is toasting, if not making the whole piece of bread more crust-like?

 

When toilets try to save money by reducing the amount of water they use per flush, but you end up having to flush like 3 times 🤬

 

What would you put in your second aid kit?

Be me.
I've started sitting down to pee because it's cleaner.
Stand up after I've finished peeing.
Pull up pants.
Turn around to flush.
There is poop in the toilet.
I forgot that this time I had sat down to poop.

 

In old plays and stories, such as Romeo and Juliet, poisons are depicted as being fairly fast acting.

Would they really have had access to such poison, or was it simply creative license? What would a realistic depiction of a poison of that era be?

 

I'm trying to figure out a ruling for something one of my players wants to do. They're invisible, but they took a couple of seemingly non-attack actions that my gut says should break inviz.

Specifically, they dumped out a flask of oil, and then used a tinderbox to light it on fire. Using a tinderbox isn't an attack, nor is emptying a flask, although they are actions , and the result of lighting something on fire both seems like an attack and something that would dispell inviz.

I know that as DM I can rule it however I want, but I'm fairly inexperienced and I don't wanna go nerfing one of my players tools just because it feels yucky to me personally without understanding the implications.

Is this an attack or is there another justification for breaking inviz that is there some RAW clause I didn't see? Or should this be allowed?

 
 
 

I know I have small hands but c'mon. Flagship phones these days are strait up small tablets, not even what we'd have called on phablets 15 years ago.

I know it's what people buy, but I'm still sad that if I want a phone that small then I have to deal with camera and display a couple gens old
