Exactly. That ruling is symbolic. They'll just put someone in place that still carries out his wishes.

My favorite part about those years is that we didn't have to care what Joe Rogan thought.

I can decide to turn off nonsense podcasts. I can't decide not to get shot if someone is shooting at me.

A better metaphor might be screaming "that guy's got a gun" in a crowded theatre. I might be able to ignore it, but lots of people are going to believe it and act accordingly, and their reaction is probably not going to be good for anyone.

Waterproofing is a lame excuse that I won't accept from these manufacturers. It may be not as easy as just permanently gluing the thing together, but it's definitely possible to have a sealed battery compartment.

So you're just out here trying to start a riot, eh?

Exactly. USB is designed so that you can have multiple devices attached to one port. 7 slots on the PC is plenty.

And in fact, they probably already have a hub. I can't remember the last monitor that I bought that didn't have a couple USB ports on it. Put that thing to use. Webcam, USB headset/mic, keyboard and mouse can all run perfectly well off a monitor hub as can most other accessories. Save the direct ports on the mobo for things that need the bandwidth like storage devices.

He resigned when he knew he was going to be fired. Probably easier to look for a job in another department before the dust settles.

Don't think that applies here. If you need training to know that you shouldn't open fire on a handcuffed man in the back of a squad car because you heard a light "thud" sound, police work is definitely not the job for you.

Yeah, the Jalopnik article is shamefully written. The cop wasn't shooting at his car, he was shooting at a handcuffed suspect in his car. Regardless of his terrible aim, his intent in that moment was to kill a man because he imagined that he had been shot so hard that he actually fell down. When the New York Post gets gets it more accurate, you know the journalism is bad.

What's even more horrifying about the situation is that another officer on scene also started shooting even though she didn't fully know what was going on. Oh, actually, not just an officer, she was a sargent. She didn't fully assess the situation, she just started shooting as well.

These people are no smarter and no more stable than poorly trained dogs.

He'd BOTH complain it was unfair AND declare himself the winner.

Rich people's real estate investments would lose value if we suddenly didn't need massive office buildings.

So we're just putting "Frostpunk video game" in as a prompt now? :)

I'm definitely voting for the leopards again this year. I mean, last time they ate the faces of people just like me, some of whom I didn't like very much to begin with. But ultimately, I was mostly unharmed last time. Surely that will continue to be the case, and the leopards will only way the faces of other people,and not me.

No, you're missing the point. You see, this special immunity should only apply to Trump. Because he's Trump, and if he says stupid things often enough, some people will believe him.

That's what they're saying folks. It's true. It's all true.

You know what? Okay! I'm in.

"Students who have completed Archery, Fencing, Pistol (Air Pistol or Rifle) and Sailing should send an email to..."

When a university education becomes a fantasy story meme. At least if you're attending MIT, you're probably multiclassed into some kind of technomancer.

We need more Mexicans in Australia, all we have is crappy Taco Bill

Now you've made Taco Bill sad. He may not be Mexican but he loves tacos as much as anyone!
