@mik I agree. Crazy!

Great story!

Larry likes that guy.

@klaus True. Let’s say instead “due to all the work done to explore whether Goldbach’s Conjecture is true or not, we can safely say that...” Since Goldbach’s conjecture has been verified up to ~10^18, and we only need it to hold up to 198, that should work.

Trump is a whiny, small man. Having money doesn’t change that. A "whiny, small man"...... Jesus. Oh you’re right. He’s a magnanimous man who lets irrelevant slights roll off his back. He doesn’t do anything that’s beneath the office he holds. I just think it's funny watching a whiny, small man complaining that someone else is a whiny, small man. Well you shoulda recorded yourself typing this out, then put it on repeat. You’d have non-stop laughs.

I just watched this documentary, Knucleball, last week on Amazon Prime. Niekro plays himself in a few brief appearances. There are not many knuckleballers left. Everyone tries to throw it, very few actually make it. We had a catcher who used to throw knucklers back to the pitchers as a joke. It drove them crazy, it was hilarious. https://www.amazon.com/Knuckleball-R-Dickey/dp/B08F2RJXFD/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=knuckleball&qid=1609122683&s=instant-video&sr=1-1

It’s not acceptable to me, I would remove it immediately.

@george-k said in Merry Christmas: Link to video I looked at that post too quickly and thought it said Incel instead of Intel...

@george-k i too have found this season depressing and much nastier at portraying the Windsors.

That’s a lot of desert to cross and recross.

That's so Germanic of you. Or maybe Russian.

It's not difficult. I've raised $10K in two different grants for my alumni association in the last couple months. All of my documentation emphasized that we were a very low overhead all-volunteer charity that was in no danger of going under. They have no resources to validate these things.

Don't worry. It is safe to assume that congress will print them as much money as they need. And forgive their debt.

Fraser-Urquhart and his fellow volunteers will be paid about $5,300 for their three-week stay at the hospital’s specialist diseases clinic, where they will be monitored around the clock, the Mail Online reported. Needs many more zeroes...
