You could also just right click though /shrug

Cut is just Command + X. You can swap in Command for most of the windows shortcuts that use control. Why didn't Apple just use the Control button for Control things? That I do not know.

I've verified throughout our fox network that there are no foxes in any henhouses at the moment. They've been instructed to take steps to ensure that no foxes end up in any henhouses accidentally going forward and the foxes tell me that they are truly sorry this time. Despite past reassurances of not being evil, they were in fact..evil. We are rolling out an internal audit system with the help of a 3rd party partner who owes us lots of stuff. We plan on letting the advocacy groups check out our henhouses as long as they agree to be bound by an NDA.

I for one would much rather see the screenshot.

I think we need to separate giving a fuck from morally wrong. I know that even stealing from Walmart is morally wrong because two wrongs don't make a right as the old saying goes, but more importantly, by living in this society and reaping its benefits, we agree to abide by its rules too. Justification is way too easy of an exercise to have any bearing on what's acceptable.

That being said...I also don't even give a fraction of a fuck about someone stealing from Walmart.

We can admit that something is wrong without caring if it's enforced or not. Kind of like solo drivers being in the carpool lane. Wrong? Yes. Care? Not a chance. They've made their own risk/reward calculations in each case.

It absolutely should be, how could anyone have possibly accepted the terms and conditions of a Fishbowl account?!

though that get murky with overseas tech entities.

I mostly agree, but you gotta admit the EU has been sticking it to the tech giants lately.

That you're still wrong? As I said, the true answer is that the problem is written poorly due to the obelus and thus is open to interpretation. You're entitled to your own interpretation since it's written poorly, I just find it pretty obviously less logical than multiplying using the distributive property first to resolve the term with the parentheses fully as you would in any advanced math.

Also, distributive law and distributive property are the same thing per Khan academy "The distributive property is sometimes called the distributive law of multiplication and division."

Wait till you hear that "i before e except after c" wasn't true either. It's wild that you think 7th grade math overrules grad school math though lol.

"Always remember to solve using PEMDAS once you've used the distributive property!" Link%20and%20subtraction%20(S).)

I prefer the biblical version:

"Hear ye, hear ye, if he who is not humbled before the Lord shall fucketh around, surely I tell you that he shall findeth out."

-DudeYou'reOntoMe 33:16 (Lebron James version)

Yeah, it really feels like every toddler figures this out for themselves. He just said it succinctly.

Well, fair enough for sure. Let's just both agree that those people suck and I genuinely hope you're enjoying your phone of choice!

Seems like our only disagreement is just how many of the evangelicals there are. I used to do tech support for iPhones about 10 years ago and I'd say maybe one out of every 30 callers or so were the rabid fanboy types you describe. But that sample was skewed too because I was pretty much only talking to people having an issue with their phone. Hardly anyone was an Apple fan after 20 minutes on hold lol

Cheers and good talk!
