AirBNB is a blight, and anyone who uses AirBNBs – particularly in urban areas – should be ashamed of themselves.
1·11 天前It’s not a hard rule unless you’re using a hard format like Chicago, MLA, or APA format. In the US it’s common to not use spaces, but in the UK and some parts of Europe it’s common to use spaces for em dashes and en dashes if they are being used to denote parentheticals.
Edit: I just noticed this article is hosted on HuffPost UK. If you go look at the US version of the site, it uses em dashes. In the UK it is becoming common to use en dashes in place of em dashes for parentheticals. Though even in the US version there are spaces, so it’s still not a clean comparison.
This quote is particularly amusing because the author used en dashes where he should have used em dashes, while making a point about how no one uses em dashes.
Thanks for the context. Though I am going to have to take another look at this when I am more sober.
Gotcha, I guess I have just never seen the usual meme. SickOS is a thing though, it’s a pentesting practice tool, a purposefully vulnerable system to practice skills on.
Sorry to ruin the joke, but could you explain? I know what SickOS is on the surface, but don’t really get this.
They are common in wetland areas with heavy mosquito population. Encouraging an active bat population is an extremely effective way to control mosquitos. They come flying out of these bat houses at dusk and gorge themselves.
One of the largest bat houses in the country is at Spirit of Suwannee Music Park, a music festival venue in the wetlands of north Florida built right on the Suwannee River. Obviously insanely fertile ground for mosquitos, but this bat houses holds 30,000-50,000 bats which keep the mosquitos under control. It’s an insane sight, watching them all pour out of there for like 5 minutes straight right at dusk every night.
That’s some wishful thinking that humans will be around then.

Smoking is especially prevalent among young people, with nearly half of those ages 13 to 15 consuming some form of tobacco.
Half is insane.

25·2 个月前Why do I see comments like this all over Lemmy? Do people like you ever go outside?
I’ve been traveling all over the south the last couple months, the MAGA folks are louder and prouder than ever.
If you think his wife isn’t as evil as he is, you are out of your mind. Relationships like that are not based on love.
It’s like the people who said “I don’t care about Kirk, but I feel for his wife.” Look at that cunt now.
If you block OP, you have basically left the community, as OP is this community. Either way, I’m fairly certain OP is posting this as in “look at how dumb this is.” It’s a science memes community.

Jack Daniels no 7 is crap. Some of their other offerings are fantastic, but they are also more like $70 per bottle.
There is plenty of other whiskey in the same price range as no 7 that isn’t a disgusting mess of sugar and paint thinner. Wild Turkey 101, Buffalo Trace, etc.
