    @George-K said in "It's a soft 'g', so it's 'jif'. Trust me: OK, who says "gif" with a "soft" g? I don't and never have. No, of course not Hard G, no question And the story doesn't say "the inventor", it says " one of the lead inventors of the GIF" So maybe he was just one of many guys hanging around the office when gif was invented. The soft G sounds ridiculous

Anonymous claims to have had great success in shutting down things .ru. https://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/news/anonymous-hacker-collective-takes-credit-for-cyberattacks-against-russian-government/ar-AAUmbAn?ocid=msedgntp https://twitter.com/LatestAnonPress/status/1506779235565944841?s=20&t=fXNO0oO2GPtOx3fT9T4pag

    With videos like that, and overall the ability to do VR... it gets you pretty close to the experience!

    Or...Maybe Putin is smart enough to know that wanton death and destruction of civilian sectors is waiving a red flag in front of a NATO bull. The last thing Vlad wants is a shooting war with countries that could establish air superiority over Ukraine, allowing the Ukrainians to resupply and operate under the umbrella of a No-fly Zone. And the next escalation after that is very sobering to think on, for all parties involved.

    @Mik said in I'm liking DeSantis more as time goes on: It has impact because it’s an elected leader taking a stand. Leading. Did you feel the same about Gavin Newsom when he directed the city of San Francisco to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples back in 2004? Did that make you like Mr. Newsom more at the time?

    @George-K said in Medical Mary Jane: The thing that gets me is that here, in the early 21st century, we're suggesting that an unregulated, unmeasured and un-studied chemical is being advocated as a treatment for....whatever ails you. That's bullshit. I agree with that 100%. Cannabis is fun. Well, it used to be. As I got older it started to not be so much fun. It actually made me feel worse then when I was not using it. So I stopped. Full stop. No withdrawal, physical or psychological. Period. It's a choice to use cannabis. 100% a choice. Best way to smoke cannabis is with a bong with ice water in it. Edibles do little to nothing for me. I built up such a tolerance to it, that even smoking very high grade pot, didn't even get me stoned any longer. What's the point in that?

    @Renauda said in Will Twitter ban Ukraine?: In WWII some of the best Red Army snipers were women. They were the real deal. Not sure if present day trannies understand that nuance. This, my friends, is the post of the season.

    @Mik said in Unsanitary Design: Looks like it was installed where a paper towel dispenser and trashcan used to be. See how they capped the can? Could be. It's not clear from the photo, but the "cap" slopes down toward the floor at about a 30 degree angle.

    The tweet says: "Police said he could not take the flight AND his U.S. Passport was revoked" The AP has a different spin: https://apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-middle-east-miami-europe-paul-manafort-de557d1773a150fa975769d7216fa54f?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=AP&utm_campaign=SocialFlow Former Trump adviser Paul Manafort was removed from a plane at Miami International Airport before it took off for Dubai BECAUSE he carried a revoked passport, officials said Wednesday.

    Yeah, she's getting hammered on some things, but it has to do with her actions or her rulings in court. And...The Resident still has not released those 28,000 pages of documents.
