Might be cheating with an end credits sequence, but I would say Psycho Pass' first ending sequence

"Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!"

Didn't expect a "The title is the article" from AP!

Lots of words to say "we don't know who this person of interest is":

Detroit police did not say Sunday evening if the suspect currently being held is the same person previously arrested in the case.

An attorney for the person arrested in November told The Associated Press on Monday that her client is not the person of interest currently being held by police.

No other details were released by police.

More like unexpected new features, like the all new spontaneous exit row!

This is why you don't leave Pillsbury dough tubes in a hot car.

And the early explosion of bundle sites. Fanatical was BundleStars, Indie Gala, and ton others that had weekly, then bi-weekly and then seemingly daily bundles.

Oh and itch.io and GoG

Power of the purse.

There's a difference between authorizing sales of weapons and authorizing gifts of weapons.

They can stand at the border and use binoculars. /s

Show some respect. His name is Murphy, and he's a damn fine cop.

I think they're better. Way more fire, less brittle, and a more unique and much rarer stone.

First discovered 120 years ago in very tiny amounts in a meteorite crater, it wasn't till the 90s that you could actually get a moissanite gemstone.

I am also convinced that diamonds are a scam.

There's a whole book about the scam and it's available online:

Was a very good read before I proposed.

Thanks for the correction. I had thought that only some of the early Motorolas had that feature, but it looks like there are quite a few more phones that support analog audio out via USB-C.

From the wiki article:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB-C#Alternate_modes

Moto Z/Z Force, Moto Z2/Z2 Force/Z2 Play, Moto Z3/Z3 Play

Sony Xperia XZ2

Huawei Mate 10 Pro, Huawei P20/P20 Pro, Honor Magic2, LeEco

Xiaomi phones

OnePlus 6T, OnePlus 7/7 Pro/7T/7T Pro

Oppo Find X/Oppo R17/R17 Pro

ZTE Nubia Z17/Z18

The ball is in the DEA's court. Some say it should be rescheduled by Spring:

How long the DEA might take to form a response is an open question, though experts told MJBizDaily that an initial proposed rule could be issued by the end of the year and the process finalized by next spring.

What the DEA cannot do is reject the HHS recommendation outright, said Howard Sklamberg, who once served as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s top enforcement official.

This means marijuana’s days as a Schedule 1 drug are ending. It’s only a matter of when.

Even better, he is suing because the charges against him make him look like a traitor:

The filing states that as a result of the government’s actions Flynn was “falsely branded as a traitor to his country, lost at least tens of millions of dollars of business opportunities and future lifetime earning potential, [and] was maliciously prosecuted and spent substantial monies in his own defense.”

Discovery in this suit will be amazing. It'll be interesting to see the details we didn't get to see that led to the Judge in one case against Flynn to say "arguably you sold your country out".

All Most of the ones you can get nowadays actually have a sound chip inside the cable (in the flat part behind the USB-C). So they're pretty much a USB-C soundcard with just a headphone out. So it's worth shopping around to find one that has a good soundcard built in.

A good alternative is getting a decent portable Bluetooth audio receiver to plug your regular headphones into. Can get a better headphone amp that way.

Another successful recruitment drive! /s

A lot. Just fried chicken chains are quite numerous:

The worse thing about that whole ordeal was the hypocrisy.

There's support groups for that.

They want the money, they just don't want the money to be tied to feeding the poor.

Look at what happened with TANF block grants:

https://www.cbpp.org/research/welfare-reform-tanf/how-states-use-federal-and-state-funds-under-the-tanf-block-grant

over time, states redirected a substantial portion of their state and federal TANF funds to other purposes, to fill state budget holes, and in some cases to substitute for existing state spending. Even when need increased during the Great Recession, states were often unable to bring the funds back to core welfare reform services and instead made cuts in basic assistance, child care, and work programs.

These overwhelmingly Republican-led states used money from the federal Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program (Tanf), better known as welfare or direct cash aid, to fund the activities of anti-abortion clinics associated with the evangelical right.
