Is it cumulative? Or is it probability — which of course goes up if you shower yourself in radiation multiple times a day?

The burrito butt is the juiciest bestest bit.

It’s like something from a b or z movie

Stop walking so loud. It’s making us mole people very very angry.

Wait. Baked into your thoughts here is an idea that each middle manager up the chain deserves “more” and that isn’t substantiated.

Managing a bunch of people may/mayn’t be harder than doing a difficult job w/ customers or manual labor or whatever. In some cases it’s a relatively kooshy desk job compared to “being in the trenches”.

Yes, sometimes decisions at higher levels has more ramifications. This is why we want good talent in those roles. But it’s a cultural choice that we decide to pay them 100s of times more.

Not so true. I use a set of “wireless” where the two ears are connected around the back of my neck. (A pair of beatx). These have 12hr battery and I listen a lot. I only kill the batteries on long ski days (the cold probably bring the battery life down a bit).

All my complaints at this point are lack of options in this mostly perfect form factor.

(Better fit in my ears, better sound, etc). This isn’t a wired/wireless problem.

^ a fair point

Fucking weird that the murderer ended up dead in the mom’s bathtub. I wonder if mom killed him?

Gods were invented so the in-group could pray to smite enemies. They were designed to suck for the out-group.

Low unemployment means higher negotiating power for workers

Too bad all those “right to work” people have been actively fighting against negotiation powers for workers. But lets blame the ‘yacht owners’ and piss and moan about how they take advantage of the lopsided negotiation powers we voted in for them.

I know! We should put exclusively yacht owners in power! They’ll totally fix it. /s

Not entirely fruitless. They’ll make some petrodeals while they’re there. Why waste a trip?

My in-laws are in Arizona where there are scorpions. I’m giving them a powerful blacklight flashlight so we can go look for them when it gets dark out.

For many he is (seen as) their path to promotion — and that is substantial power.

It’s only the Supreme Court where he doesn’t have any power. And there we have seen ample proof that corruption and greed for money or social standing can drive their decisions.

I’ve switched to streaming and don’t “buy” anything. If content isn’t available on those few streaming sites I’ll try a different provider but I will not “buy” (eg rent for more money).

It’s all a word game though. I think I actually do have one movie on Amazon. Enough people were over and wanted to watch it that we felt the larger rental fee (“buy” option) was worth it.

ComiXology is an interesting example of this. They have a shitty UI and an odd attempt to emulate the “collector” experience (obviously I think it’s horrible). It’s like a bad drug trip of skeuomorphism. I quickly decided we’d never “buy” anything there either.

“Not incentivized”!

They like using the current word “buy” because people think it means they “own” a digital copy. Since that’s not true what we’re really saying here is that they like lying because that makes them more money.

I think the more honest term is “rent”. A normal rental agreement online is for like 48hrs. This is a rental agreement for a much longer, but unspecified, time period.

You’d think a court case would clear this up. But probably not.

My 2005 forester is much smaller than many other cars out there. It takes a full size mtn bike just fine. The real key is the boxy shape. The EV9 is bigger but not by much and might be worth me checking out. thx.

I really appreciate having the bike inside after a ride allowing me to stop for food or an errand on the way home.

I’ve totally got the money to buy a new car. My 2005 forester is getting long in the tooth and i’m ready to replace it.

I want a smallish car with the same basic features: AWD, 4door, boxy rear so I can toss a full size mtn bike in there, good in the snow, etc.

My distinct impression is that the manufacturers want to sell high end (all the options and $$) but don’t give a shit about usability. Chevy volt comes close but can’t take a bike.

It’s always difficult to merge worlds but maybe adamantium is roughly equivalent to beskar or slightly better.

I think wolverine would win in that fight. He’s got lots of experience fighting many different enemies varied power including “throw things at him” and can take a ton of damage. In contrast vader will be a bit surprised by the healing abilities, commentary and hidden armor.

correct. getting them on record doesn’t do shit – but making sure they are legally liable if they do try that bullshit might help.

That seems different from your claim.
