@aqua-letifer Not bad. I tried this two years ago on a ski trip (literally for breakfast, I did the whole traditional Irish breakfast...Black pudding, white pudding, fried tomato, baked beans, etc...). It was great. So I saw it yesterday and figured “snow day!”. Not as good this time around. Not bad, just not as good.

Excellent news @Copper That is very exciting to hear that!!

I miss the days of police wading in and swinging batons.

Better have lots of money, if you don't already have your bullets. 9mm asking price recently was $100/box.

@klaus I agree and that point of convergence is the totalitarian state.

Many businesses business model is reliant on government regulations. Huzzah.

@horace said in What a fascinating thing in the Theranos documentary: They are essentially shame detectors. Exactly

@aqua-letifer said in Snow, Snow, Abominable Snow: @lufins-dad said in Snow, Snow, Abominable Snow: I made the mistake of stopping there last night to pick up shrimp for Karla and Berries for Finley. It was a madhouse (and they were sold out of both shrimp and berries, Northern VA is so spastic). FIFY. I'm pretty sure Northern Virginia is where Dave Chappelle gets his best material on white people. Seriously... Plenty of regular milk... Almond milk otoh? Bread was well stocked... Ciabatta rolls? Gone...

@jon-nyc said in Lots of stupid prizes to be given out: @horace said in Lots of stupid prizes to be given out: Heck, no left-leaning member here even mustered a tinge of outrage about the fascistic, armed CHAZ takeover of a sovereign Seattle neighborhood. You must be considering me a centrist? I certainly consider myself left-leaning. Did you muster a tinge of outrage? Maybe I missed it. I remember Mark making fun of right-leaning media calling it out for what it was. He thought it was funny that Fox news had convinced people it was a big deal.

I agree McCarthy is misframing this as an ‘amendment’ However I suspect Justin Amash was right the other day when he said that everything that needs to be illegal post Jan 6th is already illegal, and this is just a bill designed to make it easier to investigate Americans without due process

@axtremus said in Hey, George.: Was the cat radioactive at the time? Maybe you’ll get superpowers out of this. Oh, cool. He could fly over Chicago and drop wombat shit bombs on people.

Is it really wise to put these two prototypes so close together? What if a failure drops one on top of the other?

Has anyone sold 2nd hand stuff via Christie’s or Sotheby’s? What sort of listing fee and/or sales commission do they charge?

Remarkable letter. Wrestling with a pig as they say.
