Probably not his first time robbing a house.

For all of human history until 70 years ago, no baby watched TV. Reconsider what you "have to" do.

Pretty easy if you have no controversial opinions.

Of course, he left.

Banditry is when the baddies drop by periodically to demand a portion of your labor on threat of violence. Government is when they don’t leave.

I wrote them off a long time ago, but after this comment thread, I’ll give them another shot. Thanks!

As always, Quanta Magazine reporting is just garbage. The name for such numbers is ‘algebraic’.

We’re already there with corrections labor unions lobbying against decriminalizing drugs.

I’m almost always a vegetarian. My meat eating is down to under 45 minutes a day.

Weird. Jellyfin doesn’t make me do that.

It’s so strange to hear the term “piracy” in so many legal filings, when I would have thought “copyright infringement” would be the term of art. I’m hypothesizing these companies are not concerned with theft on the high seas.

Being submerged in water will substantially help thermals.

Get your own domain so email hosters can’t hold you hostage over it.

The motherboard has an "up" direction if you lay it out flat.

Watching a blank screen is still a huge quality of life win.

> The person has had their credit rating damaged

This is called libel. This person is a victim of a crime the credit reporting agency committed.

It was all just a shit test. Your willingness or unwillingness to go along signaled your fortitude.

… causing a train derailment, and completing the cycle.

Is this some new form of life?

I'm still waiting.

???

I have less than a billion dollars, and yet I worry about money a lot.

Curious.

It has vampires in space, but it’s not about vampires in space. It’s a strange book, but if I had to say, I’d say it’s about how intelligence can be divorced from consciousness and how utterly eldrich aliens might be.

A silent black screen would still be a win. Ads are disinformation.

speechless

> no matter how much they are loved

I don't buy it. If their kid needed a couple thousand dollars to live, a lot more people would be able to scrounge it up. If they can't do the same for their pet, maybe they actually do love their pet less ... and that's OK.

Good lord, dude, the study is right there.

If you took away the gossip, dcurbanmom wouldn't have a website.
