Strictly speaking, the losing bidder offered more cash, but the victims families offered concessions in the amount of damages they’d seek as part of The Onions offer, which would bring the total value of The Onions offer to higher, and that’s why they won.

Hopefully it would’ve just been “[full name], an [occupation] from [city, state]”, but I suppose we never know

South Park s9e12 actually does a decent job rounding up and illustrating their beliefs. Might be worth a watch, if you don’t mind South Park.

It’s real. The Onion won the auction for “Jones’s company’s intellectual property, such as its website, customer lists, inventory and certain social media accounts, and the production equipment” (from The Guardian), and worked with the Sandy Hook families to make the finance for the bid work (I think the families reduced their awarded damages to allow the Onions bid to be viable).

Jesus christ you know it’s bad when you agree with John fucking Bolton. Those two are, at best, treasonous Russian assets.

Less likely, as those aren’t piston engines. This is the kind of fuel used by single engine Cessnas and the like. Nearly all propeller/turboprop planes, as opposed to jets.

If it was meant in a “lay off me” or “get off my back” way, I think “stop busting my balls” would be an accurate translation

Could that be translated more colloquially to “stop busting my balls”?

In the offhand chance this is a genuine question, it’s because a large number of people in this country are essentially traumatized at the prospect of a pedophile, convicted felon, rapist, fascist in the white house, and schools know that students who are so preoccupied won’t be able to learn/pay attention in class, so they give them a break to allow time to focuse on processing the trauma from the election.

In contrast to the rest of the commenters, I don’t think so. I’ve got the Z Flip 5, and the battery life isn’t great, after a year of use, the hinge is a little looser than I’d like, and the phone is just slightly narrower than the last couple phones I’ve owned, which means I’ve somehow not managed to adjust to the keyboard size after a year, and my typing accuracy is awful.

Wouldn’t that potentially give us a democrat as VP, based on the speaker of the house (assuming the house stays blue) being moved up to VP?

Ah so you voted for trump. Good to know.

A reasonable skeptic is actually a smart one.

Yeah maybe. But neither you nor the Brainworm driving the RFK Jr. skinsuit are reasonable skeptical. The Brainworm has decided that vaccines are bad, and is attempting to cherry pick much more data to try to back up his claims. And you are trying to say that behavior is valid and part of the scientific process, which it absolutely the fuck is not.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but because these are state charges, a future president couldn’t, say, pardon him and let him out whenever, right?

Damn near every other wireless (rechargeable) mouse has the port on the side furthest from you, like where the cord is traditionally connected to the mouse. I’ve never heard of anyone getting gunk wedged in the port there as a common problem.

If there was a valid reason for why they couldn’t put the port on the side, maybe I’d agree. But literally the only reason the port is on the bottom is some designer at Apple decided they did not want to see pictures of people’s desks with cords on them, so the port got put on the bottom so no one can use the mouse while it charges, and there can never be a pic of their desk with a cord on it. Stupidest reason in the fucking world.

If they instantly reduce the tax rate to 0% it most benefits the rich folks with expensive property.

Think you just answered your own question

Similarly, Helldivers is also a prequel to WH40K

Didn’t Tesla decide to go completely with cameras? No other sensors, just some rudimentary version of machine vision?

Way too big. That’s Drydock 12 at Newport News Shipbuilding, which is some 2173 feet (~660 meters) long. 150 meters should be roughly 1/4 of that drydock, but the ship looks like it takes up closer to 2/3 of the available space, meaning it appears closer to about 400 meters in length.
