the preferred nomenclature is “come back with a warrant”.

That thing about being anti-bacterial is true. By simply being a barrier that microbes (and dirt, and water) can’t penetrate. For short term wound treatment, petroleum jelly is an excellent barrier for an open wound that’s not bleeding. Bandages inundated with it can keep a wound clean in the roughest conditions.

IDK if we should be calling something that requires so much training and dexterity an “accessibility device”.

With the expense of the hardware, the learning curve for the user, and the friction of wearing all that stuff, this is going to have to solve a compelling problem to be useful. Especially when “good enough” solutions are everywhere and free.

Good news everyone!

The militant centrist symbol is Jon Stewart wearing a Che Guevara hat. The T-shirt is only available in extra medium.

You can’t make yourself sleep. You can make yourself get up. Force yourself to get up early the going to bed early part will take care of itself.

Oh and you should stop drinking liquids a couple of hours before bed. Unless your a man over 50, in that case if you want to sleep through the night you’ll have to avoid any fluids after Tuesday.

Barbaric Islamic conservatives. In the modern Western Christian State where I live, you have to wait until the bride is 12.

Not all “elephant experience” parks are the same. Some only have rescue animals, don’t use them for “shows”, segregate male animals from guests, and only allow interaction on the animal’s terms.

Similar to the difference between an accredited zoo and Joe Exotic.

I’m reading a book and the author made the observation that Sarah Palin and McCain were sidekicks, partners, and Mavericks^tm

My opinion of anti-theists in general is that they’re like “fat hate”, just basic bigots who think they found a loophole. In anti-theist spaces for example, Islamophobia isn’t tolerated, it’s enforced.

Dawkins was always a public bigot. It’s no wonder he talks just like American conservative Christian, he’s been in bed with them for years.

One of the biggest reasons nobody trusts the media is because of this stupid standard of objectivity. Not the journalists fault, might as well insist reporters can fly as be “objective”.

Pretending to be objective is dishonest; making it an editorial standard guarantees you’re lying to the audience.

So they just pretend to be objective, we all see though it; and nobody likes being bullshited.

What does it mean that a company is worth $4T? (and I’m not talking about market cap)

It means that above and beyond the sum of Apple’s assets is a giant balloon of funny money backed by the full faith and credit of the greater idiot. Tesla has a big pustuous boil full of money too, and bitcoin is nothing else. I sure hope they don’t pop.

Because I’m not allowed to read the article to know if this is mentioned: a big reason why this would aggravate Wukong fans is that Nintendo is a Japanese company.

This dust up over HB1 is my favorite Christmas present. Seeing Vivak and Elon elitesplain why immigrants are good to MAGA is never going to get old.

We need to keep this issue in the cycle. Can we get Jefferies to declare that expanding HB1 is the Democrats top priority? Perhaps introduce legislation to loosen the restrictions on H1Bs.

I tried to read MK once, it was impenetrable. If you’re not intimately familiar with continental politics from the F/P war through Wiemar, most of it will sail noiselessly above your head.

I read in a history once that the joke in Nazi Germany was that Mine Kamph was like the Bible; everyone owned a copy, but nobody read it.

At some meeting someone asked: “AI is going to change everything. How is it going to change the Windows experience”? And recall was the best they could come up with.

Anybody notice that the cybertruck looks like a “refinement” of the taste that brought us the Aztec?

You can’t reason with racism. They believe he was essentially an Arab, and that is the source of his violence. Also, his race makes him unworthy to attack white Christians no matter how “righteous” the motive.

It’s kinda like the Daniel Penny vs. Luigi Mangioni dynamic. Murder is not wrong per se, just who has station and authority to kill whom.

“spices” were valued for their exclusivity, or because rich people ate them.

For example, allium plants like garlic and onion were viewed with suspicion and disgust, even considered poisons. This isn’t because they don’t taste good, more that anybody with a garden could grow them. Meanwhile, spices like nutmeg, which only grow in far-off places were coveted.

This is also the probable explanation for prohibitions on pork. Pigs are the meat of the poor, because you don’t need much land or resources to raise them. That old wives tale about trichinosis implies that ancient people were too stupid to cook their pork thoroughly while consuming chicken and fish that had the same illness and parasite problems as pigs.

This article’s reasoning is faith based. The cornerstone assumption is that industry profits and layoffs obey the preferences of the market.

To those who follow the industry, this is demonstrably false. What follows is the lack of awareness on full display:

and even though Spider-Man 2 sold more than 11 million copies, several members of Insomniac lost their jobs when Sony announced 900 layoffs in February.
