Markets rebounding hard

Markets rebounding, told you so…

companies are not going to invest in domestic production

$1.1 trillion already committed to building in US. Not sure what you are talking about

I hope blankets get banned over this. They are basically a giant net and keep the fascists warm. The world would be better without them.

If we don’t have meetings then how am I going to not get any work done this sprint?

If avoiding conflict was a sport, a random person from Seattle would take home gold from the Olympics every four years.

Nice

Not inside a main function, won’t pass rust compiler check

For wild animals, probably not. For domestic animals, like a dog for example, we know they have been bred to be loyal to humans. What is interesting is that some dogs prefer certain physical features and get defensive about others. My dog for instance prefers women, and in particular, brunette women, as that is what my fiancé is. But my dog freaks out when she sees a man with a beard. I don’t think my dog views brunette women as cute and men with beards as not cute, but something makes her find one type safe and attractive and another type dangerous and repulsive. What’s interesting is when I grow my beard out (about an inch or two before it’s too itchy and I shave it) she loves it and can’t stop licking my face.

Will checkout, is there a K4PC for Mac? I saw that DeDRM stopped working with the kindle for Mac changes recently

spring is here again

Seriously, have been a lot less motivated at work, but have been finding a lot of excitement in gardening, planning for an upcoming international trip, researching and writing/journaling about a topic I enjoy.

I would if I could, but Kindles new DRM can get around DeDRM. Waiting for an update. Trying to find a new way to buy books but seems like you just get locked into someone else DRM, which may have less support around DRM removal

I would imagine that with the Elon hate right more that if these were legitimate they would be front page news

As far as I can find there have been 0 reports of teslas catching fire AND THEN locking the driver inside. There are a few instances of teslas catching fire that have been non arson related, but no deaths. There have also been news reports of people getting locked inside their teslas, but they also made no attempt to use the manual release.

Did she write a book? My parents had it and explained that it was similar to what happened to my uncle. It had her looking all sad on the cover if I remember but had to be nearly 30 years ago at this point

Whole maybe not “poisons” by definition I have a couple scary stories of people working in damp, moldy office and basement environments and after a couple years getting rare autoimmune and neurological disorders that killed them. One being my uncle, my family tried to get his workplace to test where he worked because the doctors said that’s most likely where he contracted it, but they refused. We weren’t looking for money, just trying to save the next guy. I was fairly young when this happened so I don’t remember all the details.

Second this, ironically, giving CBP a focus on human trafficking, drugs, and weapons has made it less focused on the little inane things. Assuming you aren’t a criminal in your country, acting weird, don’t have a weird travel pattern in the US, and haven’t attended the funeral of any terrorists recently, you’ll be all good.

You picked Batman as an example? The guy whose parents died, then he uses the vast wealth to learn and buy gadgets no one else can afford to fight crime. He constantly gets beaten right off the bat (pardon the pun) and his whole arc is to use his intellect to learn from his mistakes to do better after he fails and people get hurt. He is liked because in a world where everyone has some weird super power he is just a guy dedicated to making sure children don’t have their parents killed, too. He has a moral compass and a vision and we constantly see him fall down and get back up. A lot of the issues people had with Superman (an actual Gary Stu) were rectified with Batman. Debates on his vigilantism have made him both a loved and hated character. The question is constantly asked if he might be doing more harm than good. He has doubts and questions himself, he makes mistakes, he isn’t universally loved, he is no where near a Gary or Mary Sue.

Unfortunately that argument didn’t work for Gary McKinnon

Edit: I guess it kind of did because the British government refused to extradite him because of that argument, so as long as the “hacker” is in Britain they will be fine.
