Harris chose to do something immoral because “it was the law”, or it benefited her, or whatever - and you can expect her to continue doing that.

You still have to vote for her, but you also have to be realistic about who you’re actually voting for.

Republicans are the party who holds their candidates up without criticism - and Dems put up Kamala now exactly because Democrats were criticizing Biden - and even though she’s one of the worst candidates they’ve put up in years, she’s still far more electable than Biden.

So yes. You need to both vote for and criticize Harris. It’s the least immoral choice.

“mad at the machine for not working or you are begging it to work”

Inclusive or

“Suppose you use a constant schedule year round”

It took a full paragraph to get to saying you didn’t read them comment and then four more to elaborate on that?

In a sane world they would just get to school earlier and leave earlier - that’s all DST effectively does while adding a heaping helping of absolute insanity.

This misunderstands the motivations of real-life evil people.

Once you accept there is no afterlife, that your legacy means nothing, and that you’re a piece of shit who has no desire to contribute to society or help others - only your personal success and self-pleasure while living matter.

Tarquin says it best, though much more humorously, here: https://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0763.html

By Rush’s personal measure, he absolutely won. So did Kissinger. So did Reagan. Trump and Jones and Rogan are on track.

You don’t beat such people with legacy.

I’d say it also needs to be entirely optional and be opt-in only. Any service, program, whatever needs to work fully for anyone who doesn’t allow their data to be sold or released with extremely few exceptions.

Better solution.

Data are owned by the generator. Only they can sell it etc…

This also solves the privacy problem of law enforcement agencies applying warrants to phone companies etc. for access to your data, which has been an end-run around 4th Amendment rights for decades.

Just draw it wrong and it will make sense!

DD/MM/YYYY is absolutely crazy. There is only one format that makes sense.

Relevant part at 5:15 but it’s all on point. There’s a better version somewhere but this was the top hit…

I heard a remark to the effect of “X-COM 2 feels like it was just made for people that really liked the other X-COMs”

From my read of the article he wasn’t wearing it, he was holding it in his hands along with the trash…

What’s the line of thinking on that?

Get up. Realize it’s trash day and grab the trash to go outside - but wait! What if some ne’er-do-well has been lying in ambush until 6 in the fucking morning to rob me of my precious trash? Better grab my heat. Shit I’m still in my pajamas and my holster is in the other room. I’ll just walk out like some romcom librarian, except instead of books I have a heap of trash and a loaded gun and the part where I trip is a lot less cute.

Now?

But that’s exactly the point the person you’re replying to was making; Republicans are terrible for small businesses. So unless your friends are the Waltons, they’re voting against themselves.

Wobinidan is probably not widely known. It might not be amazing but it’s somewhat different from most music and has a cool raw indie quality: https://youtu.be/lrwDMkf-0lo?si=h_UjKIao0zx_hMnj

If you haven’t heard of Lovers, they’re genuinely awesome. Listen to all of it, but The Modern Art Museum of the Modern Kiss Goodbye is memorable in many ways: https://youtu.be/lrwDMkf-0lo?si=h_UjKIao0zx_hMnj

EDIT: Almost forgot about this difficult to find glam gem from Magnolia Blvd. I love this song; I don’t know why. I found it during the Napster days, always forget it exists then have to do an arcane Google search to dig it up again: https://m.soundcloud.com/user-961325120/stormy-eyes

Thievery touring member Frank Orrall is also the lead singer for Poi Dog Pondering, which has a totally different take on world music. Their Pomegranate album is absolutely great, and a notable song from it is Complicated: https://youtu.be/-KLZMKNs7qY

For a cover, they have an awesome version of That’s the Way Love Is: https://youtu.be/k7iaA7x9oc4?si=aHd5ZJsR7KbqFy7o but I haven’t found a high quality audio YouTube version of it.

Gen AA

Yeah. Gen Z is getting boring.

Can we divide out the next generation already so we can make the same claims about them we’ve been making for 500 years again?
