  • "oh, you're in luck. we just had a cancellation. can you be here at 1130...today?"

    'fraid not. it'll take me longer than that just to get out of london

  • all the locals i know prefer chicago's other pizza, tavern-style thin and crispy. they might have a deep dish once or twice a year, if that.

  • there's a lot of 'texas' in austin. it's inescapable. plenty of 'good ol boys' around, they're just outnumbered in the city itself.

  • 'oh, they have more money now.. time for it to be my money'

    that happened with me with the covid checks. soon as those came out, rent went up--and up. those quickly disappeared but the rent increases are forever.

  • bots will start hitting a brand new subdomain on my web server literally seconds after creating it. looking for exploitable scripts like wordpress, usually.

  • some of those republican senators might be smart enough to realize that a statewide election can be more difficult to survive than in a gerrymandered legislative district.

  • “It’s not easy!” he told supporters on Saturday, saying only 2 percent of his followers could pass it.

    the closest thing to the truth he has ever spouted.

  • watch the reddit ipo be a catalyst for a stock market crash.

  • overall sales are up, prices are waaay tf up.

    gross margins are down slightly, but they're taking that 27.7% (vs 28.1%) from a larger pie.

    profits are up.

  • somehow these poor struggling grocers can still buy one another for twenty five billion dollars.

  • and like they haven't been reading all the data from day one anyway.

  • "growing urge..."

  • with a fair amount of help. food pantry, when i can get there--once or twice a month, for a bag of close or past-date produce and other perishables, and a few other things; and 'leftovers' brought to me by others a 2-3 times a week.

    my 'grocery bill' hasn't gone up--because it can't. i spend the same, but get a lot less for it.

  • i don't even need that much, either. hell, you can keep the money--just gimme the investment proceeds from a few million. it's sofa cushion money or a rounding error at your scale..

  • it's probably more because intel hasn't dropped ddr4 yet in their new chips, and won't until late '24/early '25 with arrow lake and the new socket.

  • they just want the 'right people' to get hurt---even if they, or their families and friends, also get hurt.

  • this isn't anything new. fake downloads, malware, and scam support sites and links and phone numbers have been a thing in results since they started putting paid placements and ads in serp... and even before then, back when simple keyword spam could game the algorithms.

  • if the films go as planned, the fifth one will hit theaters late 2031, he has 'ideas' for two more after that.

    and then you'd have the 30th anniversary re-re-release of a re-re-remastered first one... so, maybe, the 2060s?
