I'm not sure how else to read that?
I believe they're using "revert" to mean "respond" or "reply".

Which is an incredibly terrible idea because if you're talking to somebody unfamiliar with this use, well, "okay I guess I'll change it back"

It's just ten characters with a capital letter and a number, oh and you have to have one letter in your password from your email address. That's logical passwordery.
It just says my password is not unsafe in red when i try to proceed

Wait are there multiple possible validation steps? Mine was "check all pictures with glasses", with eyeglasses, drinking glasses, and windows and panes of glass, and I jsut checked everything

I'm still not sure what I was doing differently to get through the password part.

Your password not being unsafe should be fine. Did you make sure to uncheck that you don't accept the T&Cs

Carbon/carbide tipped blades are awesome, though I'm mildly surprised they used those on metal racks, they have specific blades made for cutting through metal; they might have been slower, but they are a lot less expensive.

I am not a huge fan of using saws-alls to do large metal/concrete cuts though, the blades warp really quickly; I guess a gas saw wouldn't be preferable since you're cutting sideways and they don't much like running without getting gas flow.
I'm pretty sure they were talking about cutting the cables so they could just drag the racks out without having to unhook everything. The racks themselves probably have more resale value intact than as scrap.

Is there a microwave around in 2019 that doesn't have a popcorn button?
the hell does that have to do with whether the popcorn is cooked correctly, i think I've had like one microwave in my entire life where the popcorn button didn't either undercook or overcook the popcorn if you left it to its own devices

I had no idea such technology existed.

I thought the only way you could microwave popcorn was by using those special bags of popcorn that also gave you cancer.


What a world we live in!
oh the buttons are for those prepackaged bags

Eh, gently caress Ben, but Larry got a little less laidback; from what I heard he came down on Ben like a ton of ... of.. rectangular building things.

Fri 4:32 pm Ben: Hey man, why'd you have to do me like that?
Fri 4:36 pm me: You did ME like that FIRST.
why does ben expect any loyalty from you?? he caused the problem in the first place and then tried to blame poo poo you absolutely did not do on you

I get annoyed if people put a question in a chat without putting a question mark but then send a message afterwards with just the'?' in - it reads as if they are trying to hurry you up for an answer
Just remember that the shift and enter keys are right next to each other.
