I used to work for General Atomics; started as a division of General Dynamics to figure out nuclear power plants, then, after a few oil company owners, landed in private hands. They bought a small company working on drones back in the 1980s, and now the Predator and Reaper are the biggest part of the company.

SteamOS.

No puppet, no puppet, you’re the puppet!

Chaotic neutral salad.

This is how we know that he thinks he lost.

No one else was in the room where it happened The room where it happened The room where it happened

“I’m pretty, ‘Fuck the government, and fuck everything that’s going on right now.’” She shared the sentiment with “middle fingers in the air,” the profile notes.

Fuck which government? Federal, state, local? US? UK? China, Russia, Afghanistan? The very idea of government? You get more than three people in a group, and something that starts looking like government begins to emerge. Governments aren’t self-programmed AI robots (yet), they are groups of people. You need to be specific: “fuck insert name here”, or “fuck *particular policy.”

“Zaslav’ing” lol

Nothing obvious; no game breaking bugs or unplayability. Just too little, too late. If it came out 5 years ago, it would have a chance, but that space is too crowded now with F2P offerings to tolerate a bland entry with high upfront cost. It sounds like they’ll retool it into F2P, hopefully add something unique, and relaunch.

Ok, so it’s chronological from bottom to top, for some reason.

Seriously, I just finished my annual “preventing harassment’ training and there’s a whole section on power differential and how just asking puts employees in a bad spot. Just…don’t.

Shit, I better get cracking.

The “White Dudes for Harris” groups raised more than $4 million over a Zoom call that featured the likes of “The Dude” Jeff Bridges, *Star Wars *legend Mark Hamill, and Mark Ruffalo gabbing with Pritzker and a pre-VP pick Gov. Tim Walz.

Former President Donald Trump also has some groups trying to target various demographics, including a $20 million “Send the Vote” effort backed by podcast hosts the Nelk Boys and former Trump aide Taylor Budowich.

Mmhmm.

Don’t you think he looks tired?

He just won’t go away. Read the room.

Truss has become vocal on US politics, last month addressing Republican supporters and urging them to learn lessons from her brief time in No 10. She said: “I’ve learned how powerful the unelected bureaucracy is. You have to win in November … you have to dismantle the leftist state … they are devious, they are ruthless and they are out to get you.”

I don’t see how she’s qualified to say jack shit about US politics.

I don’t feel that one’s even halfway earned. I don’t hate my fellow man, not even when he’s tiresome, surly, and tries to cheat at poker. I figure that’s just the human material, and he that finds in it cause for anger or dismay is a fool for expecting better.

Same for our adoption. We were fully prepared for her to prefer her confinement space for a few days, but the next day she was walking around very comfortable.
