I get angry because of frustration about things beyond my control that impact me negatively and can’t simply be ignored. Knowing that extra step is great and all, but doesn’t reduce the frustration or the anger. I’m sure that identifying the difference is helpful to some people who can ignore or address the actual cause of their anger.

Note: I don’t get angry about frustrating things that I can do something about, or can be ignored.

Calm down.

Candyman and Bloody Mary only work if you believe :P

If they didn’t do it they get the same ‘not guilty’ verdict, so what is the recourse for someone who was falsely charged?

I am specifically thinking of the US where there are a lot of black men falsely convicted of violent crimes they did not commit because of racist eye witness testimony or even victims who blame a random black person to avoid social stigma and prosecutors who want higher conviction rates.

Not to mention that not everyone has fingers.

Moms for Liberty flourished when they came out in numbers while reasonable people were being cautious about covid.

That is what the help files say, but when I tried to register a work account yesterday it did the verify you are human, then said there was something suspicious and sent the email verification, then said there was something suspicious and is now requiring a phone verification even though I did not enter a phone number.

At no point was I ever signed in and able to even pick a channel. This all happened while trying to log in for the first time through the browser at work with my work email. I guess that someone else might not hit that phone requirement as I only tried to do the registration once, but it is in no way limited to joining a particular channel.

I don’t know if it is new, but it is in the help files when I tried to figure out why it required both confirming an email and the phone.

The worst part is that they act like you can set up an account without a number, but then it acts like there is ‘suspicious activity’ and requires you to verify with the phone immediately.

Just rant into this yesterday trying to set up a work account as my work phone is not a mobile phone with sms.

Was registering really suspicious?

My only complaint about discord is that it requires a mobile phone number for an account, and you can’t use the same number for multiple accounts.

I want separate personal (with a silly account name) and professional (with my name) accounts, but only have one phone.

And not everyone should.

Somebody spent the money on a research team and five years is why it is very attainable now.

Someone trying to write the code from scratch would still take a research team and years to replicate it from scratch.

Ok, there is one reason.

Randomly placed carts are in the way and there is no reason ever to not put them away.

I refer you to my previous posts.

It was not a hybrid and I know how aerodynamics work.

Learn to read and understand words.

We rented a minivan on a recent trip and got 35+ mpg with a very full load, and it had some decent get up and go. It had a long sloped front end and I would absolutely recommend minivans to anyone who needs more space than a hatchback!

It wouldn’t work for me outside that situation though, which is why I keep saying no to those suggestions.

No, for reasons already explained upthread and in various posts.

The trailer takes up space when not being used, the back half of the vehicle does not. This is true no matter what the parking situation is. Zero space is better than any space, if the back half of the vehicle doesn’t need to be enclosed or have seating.

The trailer requires some extra maintenance too. Keeping things oiled, tires aired up and replaced regularly. Driving with the trailer means needing to use to parking stalls when parking. Backing up with trailers is a lot of fun too!

The trailer is a very situational benefit for situations where the main vehicle space is needed. Hell, if I need a trailer I can just rent one from UHaul. But I don’t when the same thing is solved with a truck bed, and the truck bed format is far more convenient if the vehicle with the bed is the same size as a normal car!
