Might perform better in certain situations where the original got laggy.

Stein isn’t in the ballot in enough states to win the electoral college. She literally cannot win.
You might as well vote for Barney the dinosaur for all the good it will do.
A vote for a candidate who cannot win is wasted.
The only person older than Trump to ever run in the general election is Biden.
Worse than that. You bought software licenses specific to that Wii, not to an online account. If it died, you lost all your purchases.
Doom 2016 was just about perfect. It blended old-shool FPS fundamentals with modern aiming, collectibles, etc.
So - ignoring the time he sent a mob to try and overthrow the US government, how about we use the fact that he literally said he’d be a dictator?
Or maybe the fact that his legal defense against trying to overthrow the government was that the President is immune from all crimes. His lawyers even literally said he could have his political opponents murdered, and so long as the surviving politicians don’t impeach and convict him he can’t be held liable for it.
They’re arguing a legal framework under which he can murder the opposition, and then kill anyone that tries to remove him from office.
And it’s gotten much worse since then. The $185 billion number listed as the highest wealth would be around number 5 now, with Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg, and Arnault all having more than that now I think.
My favorite statistic household net worth (includes cars, houses, retirement, everything).
Median from 2022 was 192,000 Mean from 2022 was 1,063,000
The ultra-rich are such incredible outliers that the mean is more than 5x the median.
The 10 wealthiest people in 2024 control almost 1.7 trillion dollars. That’s more than the GDP of the pooreat 100 countries combined.
I like the bleep-boo sounds of the command prompt scrolling by on computers.
The sound is higher-quality than the files we’re getting from the streams, so it’s fine.
For me it’s been “I see you bought this specific laser engraver. Would you be interested in buying that exact model?”
No. I already bought it, and it’s not a consumable. If I decided I needed a new laser a week into ownership, it wouldn’t be because I was thrilled with that exact model.
The ndo Uber Eats a few times a week at work. It’s 100% about the time required to do anything else.
The average new house in the city I work for is about 6 million dollars, so I live about 90-minutes away in normal traffic where I can pay $750/month in rent. I work lots of hours (start at 8, usually leave between 6 and 8 with no real break between), so I’m looking at 14-16 hours between when I leave the house in the morning and when I return home. I also think ach night classes at the University on Mondays during the fall and Spring semesters, and have 3 night meetings a month between Council and Planning and Zoning. On the weekends I drive a couple hundred miles out of town to help with my parents.
If paying triple for a meal occasionally saves me 15-20 minutes it’s often absolutely worth it for the stress relief.
Amen.
Felons can try to make amends. Troy just makes Jager bombs at the office and passes at the 19yo receptionist.
Doesn’t matter if the plastics never make it to the recycling center. Only around 5% of plastics in the US get recycled. Sometimes that’s because it’s cheaper to not recycle or because the particular plastic is non-recyclable, but most of the time it’s because it just gets thrown out with the rest of the garbage.
Sorting and separating materials en masse is by far the most difficult part of the process.
I’m a white Christian man in Texas. I know I’m privileged and that that privilege often comes with ignorance, so I used to be really nervous about offending people inadvertently.
But I eventually learned to just ask if I wasn’t sure.
It did help that one of my best friends in college was a black lesbian who transitioned Jr year. I joked with him that he was my token “X” friend.
I can’t be racist because that would be hurtful and wrong.
I kept thinking they’d go there, and they still haven’t.
The Jedi sense of balance isn’t balanced at all.
What year were you born?
Yes. But at the same time I’m actually okay with ads for products that are legitimately good and are relevant to me, so long as I know they’re an advertisement.
Products need marketing. It’s reality. I’d rather get my marketing in the form of a recommendation or review from a trusted source than a random video shoved down my throat.
A easy example of a good source for me is MKBHD. He gets free stuff and sponsorships, but is selective regarding what he’ll accept sponsorships from, is very clear when a segment is sponsored, and will absolutely say a product is bad or overpriced even if he got it for free.
Let’s look at oldest mainline Presidential nominees in history:
Next President who was elected was William Henry Harrison, but we’re getting “young” enough there may be unelected nominees I’m not aware of.
Also: fun fact. Jimmy Carter’s post-presidency lifespan has been over 43 years so far, while Teddy Roosevelt was only 42 when elected Predident.
