He clearly did not deny them his essence.

I'm humming Secret Asian Man...

Is the new guy also going to give Trump gold trinkets in exchange for favors?

Not only that, but I'd rather not have to lug around a bunch of crap. Go to the kiosk, check it in, tag it, done. I don't care about waiting 15 minutes at baggage claim. Less time than having to get a ride to a CVS or whatever.

If a movie is the 3rd act in a 3 act play style thing, for sure. But as a new story? It needs to stand on its own legs.

I doubt it even gets to discovery. I also think Patel's days are numbered. He's been a very good useful idiot, the FBI has been great at doing nothing but helping ICE terrorize people, but there's a line that can't be crossed.

If your movie requires that I see a previous movie, then you suck at making movies.

In addition, I often need to take my laptop and some other items. That all takes up my backpack, leaving me with no other carry-on option. And yeah, there's usually that one dinner which requires a jacket, dress shoes, etc.

Checking a bag is definitely not a "skill issue".

For me, it's mostly a question of weather. I went to Oregon last January. It was 60-ish degrees during the day, down to upper 30s at night. Snow/Rain was forecast intermittently. We had to do things during the day and at night. So I needed layers that went beyond just packing a carry-on.

Revealed: How Substack makes money from hosting Nazi newsletters Exclusive: Site takes a cut of subscriptions to content that promotes far-right ideology, white supremacy and antisemitism

Substack platforms nazis, antisemites, and white nationalists for profit. I personally don't give them traffic, even though I'd often like to read what someone has written there. So, yeah.

I think they should also add longer support for software/security updates.

It's 100% Das Boot in Space.

One of my favorite movies, and I liked the concept of the book, but I'll admit it was a bit of a tough read.

I grew up with Richard Feynman as a hero figure. Two Nobel prizes, played bongos at the Trinity tests, great accessible books on lofty subjects & all that. He had some issues.

Isaac Asimov wrote some amazing books. Turns out he was also not a great human.

Thanks for that! Was an interesting read.

Is it from a heat island effect?

I think she might have different values for both "healthy" and "delicious" than normal people.

A debauched sloth?

I had an urge to recreate the UI, animated. I just wanted to sit there & watch it for hours while giggling. But sadly sometimes being a responsible adult comes first.

Er, couldn't.

I really wanted a Grid Compass a while back, but just could justify spending that much for one.

Indeed, he's their useless useful idiot.

I know he had issues but there was a lane Sizemore was perfect in, this is a great example.

Shooting 5.56 out of an 11.5" barrel inside a car makes my ear ring just thinking about it.

A former coworker in the cube next to mine thought the speakerphone feature on his first smart phone was the greatest thing ever invented. It was apparently also handy to check for new messages every 15 minutes. The new message notification was nowhere near as good.

I had a feeling it was fake, so I actually did go to their website and search. I entered a few phrases, actually. Nothing came up.

Not sure why you'd need to use AI to invent weird news stories about Florida. The state does that job very well all on its own!

Next he'll be saying that Trump is rolling the rock of America up a hill.

Starting a war w/ Iran was beyond stupid. And very sad that their idiocy has taken lives.

It apparently uses passive IR & optical sensors to track aircraft, meaning we can't jam it or detect it ahead of impact. It's the Majid AD-08 if you want to look up more info about it.

I think instead of a uranium theory, it's probably more likely that they don't want to admit that Iran had developed a passive-tracking missile we didn't know about & have no defense against. They like to hang their hat on the "US is the most advance military & Iran was totally defeated" thing.
