My girlfriend lies on my right arm, so she’s on the right side of the bed and I’m on the left.

This one paid off. Read the interviews given by mr Arbaugh. Musk is an ego-driven maniac, you won’t get any argument from me. But as a result a bunch of scientists got more funding than they normally would for this project that gave great joy and some measure of independence to a young quadriplegic, maybe with more to follow.

You want to hate on Musk? I’ll happily join you. But if you’re one of those assholes rooting against these doctors and scientists doing ground breaking work with Musk’s money, that’s a pretty terrible take.

Hired goons?

I can appreciate that sentiment but at the same time it’d be hard to swallow if I were Ukrainian and the Russians were at this very moment killing my countrymen while my ally invites them over for tea. It’s one thing to let go of the past, quite another to let go of the present.

Blasting is all fine and good but they should’ve slammed them really.

It might not work eh? Might it though? I hate this kind of weasel headline almost as much as the constant “slamming”. Just say what you’re going to say.

They just said it is optimized for gaming and has a toggle to “optimize the CPU drive”… Can’t wait for this technological marvel.

where is teh luv? teh loev? the luv?

Might be an unpopular take but… maybe being good at high school math tests is not really such an important gift in the real world.

Because we all decided that shit and free is better than good and paid

Man I need a replay of the whole series. Thanks for the reminder <3

I don’t disagree with what you’re saying, except maybe we should switch to show not tell. I understand that it’s not as easy as that but over the last let’s say 30 years, how much has the left really improved life for the rural population? And by comparison how much do we preach to them that they’re backwards and their world view is invalid?

It’s exactly as you say, the working class should be an easy win for us on policy, but it hasn’t turned out that way.

You can just say “well they’re stupid that’s what you get” or you can ask yourself why aren’t we getting these people on board while some greasy billionaire can?

Why would you ask a bot to generate a stereotypical image and then be surprised it generates a stereotypical image. If you give it a simplistic prompt it will come up with a simplistic response.

Not to the racism and idiocy but to the underlying issues that fuel that anger.

These same senators are responsible for spouting tongs of other of nonsense, I wouldn’t take it too seriously and don’t make up the majority of even the insane wing of the GOP. Not saying this is not a threat that, for example, Trump might make if he gets elected but for now I would take this with a grain of salt. They’re just puffing up their chests for their own base here, as usual.

Yeah the map was the problem, Todd.

But only one of these two has the capability to and is actively working towards wiping the other off the map. I’d say any lasting peace would have to start there.

I rented for many years before I felt ready to buy. When I was younger I didn’t want to be tied to a mortgage, even if the bank would have given me one.

I was lucky enough to have a very reasonable landlord who always got things fixed and painted when needed and charged a very reasonable rent (and in turn I tried to be a good tenant and take good care of the property) One day he told me he would like to sell the house and I decided to buy it. Even gave me a very good deal compared to the maximum market value he could have gotten (which of course also saved us both money in agents etc.)

All that to say (and yes it is very anecdotal), good landlords exist and I was very happy with mine.

The US can say what they want, Netanyahu knows going against Israel is political suicide. Whatever threat they make won’t have any teeth. He could care less what Biden or anyone else wants.

If they really are micro breaks, as in a few minutes, try doing nothing. Just being alone with your thoughts a few times per day is good for you. We’re not made to have our attention grabbed by media 24/7.
