Could someone post the URL for the opt-out page? I don't use Grammarly.

Between choir, youth group, and RE in high school I'd done most of it and asked a lot of unanswered questions. Then I came across Bailly's Theologia Dogmatica et Moralis, a Q&A for seminarians, which gave me the ammo to answer enough questions to convince me how evil the churches are.

Hey fellow scientists, I'm just letting you know that if you're promoting something with some junky AI image, I'm not gonna click. You've got a workshop, a conference, a new paper?

Just not gonna bother. You want a bespoke image? Hire an illustrator.

This & it goes double for “craft fairs”, special events at your bar, pop up community stuff etc.

Next time this culture of casual massacre Republicans have created and forced us all to live in ricochets back to hurt one of their own every media outlet will start wringing their hands about political violence as if this guy hasn’t been out here saying loathsome shit like this all along.

When a toddler, K1 knocked over a whole glass of Coke™ onto my Sharp PC-1500 so I had to take it all apart and rinse out the keyboard and all the keys and hope that the membrane had survived. It had.

I was just turning off a couple of lights this afternoon thinking about this, and really enjoying the direct manipulation of it all. Our home is just getting stupider over time.

Do you ever wish voting wasn't treated as team sports and maybe elected officials were actually required to do the things they voted on?

Good news, that's called Democratic Centralism! The CIA just spent millions to distort it in US academia because it's too resistant to fascist infiltration.

Senior Apple leaders ‘alarmed’ by Jim O’Callaghan’s comments on data security Tech giant told officials data privacy and security are ‘core values for the company’

Both are possibly mistaken. Apple refuses to comply with local legal orders to release or unlock iPhones, apparently.

Somehow I always managed to avoid Slough, although I did once have an interview in Reading.

Gasoline is the USA is reportedly now $3.50 per gallon.
That equates to €0.77 per liter in the EU...but the actual price here (at least, in Ireland) is just over €2.00 per liter, or $8.85 per US gallon.
I'm afraid your heavily subsidised US gas has a long way to go yet.

I can just hear @terryandrob.bsky.social (all Gods rest his preceptive and fabulously edgy soul): "The IQ of a mob is the IQ of its most stupid member divided by the number of mobsters.”

I think it's important to give full credit to the original idiom here.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a UNIVERSAL vaccine known as GLA-3M-052-LS+OVA, that protects against a wide range of respiratory viruses, bacteria AND even allergens. The vaccine is delivered intranasally AND provides broad protection in the lungs for several MONTHS.
