Judy Woodruff was forced to publicly apologize because Trump and Bibi said they didn’t talk about delaying it, but I still think she was right:

I mean, I’d trust unnamed sources over these two guys any day.

The fun fact about Methylene Blue that always is a hit with students is it also turns your pee a green/blue-green color.

I wish this AI generated image would go megaviral

I’m still convinced the turning point was when Microsoft deprecated Skype for Business and merged the devs from that team with the ones working on Teams. My tinfoil hat theory is they brought their garbage Lync code with them and pulled seniority to somehow jam it into the new codebase.

This got me curious whether the milk would be any different and, if I’m reading this study correctly, there’s practically no difference in content

Said study: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/7462406/

Don’t forget, from 2014 to 2021, they had George W Bush’s Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on their board of directors.

I’m not entirely sure you’d want someone smoking around a large supply of oxygen, either.

To be serious, though, I’ve seen some places where they seal the entryway to a dedicated smoking room a bit better and vent the smoke outside. I feel like that would be safer/more practical than smoking booths.

Roberto is just following a long standing Italian tradition of insults

It’s possible I just haven’t come across those types of comments you’re making fun of, but I usually just see people making the case that we don’t need new, possibly overreaching, legislation to handle these situations. They want to avoid a disingenuous “think of the children” kind of situation.

a youth court in the city of Badajoz said it had convicted the minors of 20 counts of creating child abuse images and 20 counts of offences against their victims’ moral integrity

I’m not familiar with their legal system but I would be willing to bet the crimes they’ve committed were already illegal under existing laws.

I was curious just how many people actually live in South Dakota, just so that I could have a point of reference for the 37.8% statistic. Basically, it’s roughly the same amount of people as the population of New Orleans or half the population of Washington DC that agree with her. What an empty state.

I ran across software once that wouldn’t compile properly and the only documentation available was an archive.org hosted backup of an Intel help page that no longer exists. There is no alternative, Intel just removed it entirely.

Wasn’t that almost what happened with Bryan Lunduke? AFAIK, dude took a hard turn to the right after years of decent Linux-related advocacy and then nuked his social media accounts and tried to claim the opposite. Not sure where he’s at now, but it was pretty strange.

You could probably replace John McCain with Mitt Romney? He has somewhat recently voiced dissatisfaction IIRC.

Actually, hell, Darth Cheney himself is still somehow alive. He can’t be happy with the way his dream of American exceptionalism has turned out with respect to the current state of the Republican party.

With respect to the third point, he kinda looks like he’s about to shout at you about merchandising

I can’t access the research article “craic in a box: commodifying and exporting the irish pub” anymore, but there’s a decent enough Vice article that goes over it: https://www.vice.com/en/article/a3d8gb/why-irish-pubs-became-the-biggest-food-and-drink-export-since-mcdonalds

Basically corporations packaged up and sold the theme and decorations that made Irish pubs feel authentic.

I wonder if using AI/ML is just the natural evolution of that kinda thing.

This happened in Georgetown, where the most likely crime you’d ever experience is how much the shops charge for a mediocre cupcake or expecting reservations to actually matter at Founding Farmers. It’s a city like any other and, depending on the year, usually averages a bit lower in crime rates.

It’s all a jew-ish conspiracy anyway. /s

I saved a screenshot the last time I saw an article about this. Sums it up nicely…

There are certainly some factions within the Republican party that would look at the current situation with glee, but I think you’re right.

I remember reading some analysis back when Grover Norquist was having Tea Party members sign pledges/get others to sign pledges, that those pledges would eventually create a lose-lose situation for the opportunistic Republican candidates that signed them. They seemed to be beneficial from a populist standpoint, but were fundamentally incompatible with the reality of politics requiring some amount of give and take.

Basically predicting a situation somewhat similar to this.
