I saw that on a bumper sticker on my way to work a year and a half ago, and it also took me too long to decipher at the time.

Breaking: the DOGE deposition videos have been taken off YouTube. On Friday the government asked a judge to intervene, said the videos could cause reputational damage, death threats. Judge agreed, ordered them removed: www.404media.co/doge-deposit...
In case people are not aware of what actually causes most bird deaths in the US, it's domesticated cats (a human-introduced species), followed by building windows.
And that's a logarithmic chart. On a linear chart, the turbines' bar wouldn't even be visible.

Too much lettuce. Not enough spinach. Especially with that looking like salami and provolone.
This stuff might be what finally makes the work and maintenance of self-hosting more attractive than Google's cloud.
Or maybe a switch to a paid provider like Proton (though they've got their own BS machine they're marketing).
Because I've had it up to here with the stochastic parrots. Justβ¦
My breathing is assailed way more frequently by people's hyper-scented laundry products than by pot smoke.
It's not even true! The Denver metro area is pot central. More dispensaries per capita than almost anywhere else in the country.
I have a very sensitive nose and really hate that smell.
But I catch a whiff so infrequently it barely registers as "random jerk"βcertainly not as "pervasive annoyance".
Trapper Keeper type binder with Lisa Frank style art of dolphins. Script text in lower corner reads "McSweeney's 80"
Contents of the binder including a shape drawing tool, a holographic notebook and more.
A folder laid out on top of other contents. It's has a dazzling orange sun setting into a wiggly canyon with some aurora-like ribbons in the sky flanking the sun.
More contents. A Scantron style test in the now-open folder. A comic book. A foldout leaflet titled "Flower Catalog".
One of the most recent issues of McSweeney's came packaged as a Trapper Keeper! I thought it was just one of their unconventional magazine format ideas playing on nostalgia. I didn't realize the real article was back.
They do some really fun packaging and design.
Full page "ad" in The Onion for "60 Minutes": "Is NBC Hiring? Lesley Stahl investigates."
There's been a lot of debate within the Democratic establishment about what rhetoric to use via ICE.
Well, an incumbent doesn't lose by 48 percentage points very oftenβand her vote on collaborating with ICE was the defining issue here.
I don't think I've played it since 2013, and I never really got into Pokemon Go, either.
AR games don't seem to appeal to me as much as just listening to a podcast during a walk. (Or listening to natural sounds and taking in the scenery if I'm hiking, as opposed to walking around a developed area.)
I picked up Ingress (same original designers, Niantic) back in, like 2012-13, but I was in a super rural area at the time, and not much was going on, so it also quickly got pretty dull.
I've known what one was since elementary school, when I'd help my dad with yardwork, like clearing trees and splitting wood from downed trees in our field. (We never relied on wood for house heat; this was just used for campfires.)
He's 74 and he still hand-splits wood for fires with his friends.
He's also had the same maul for probably at least half a century. I know it's older than I am. May well have been *his* dad's; I've never asked.
My 74 year old dad definitely still splits wood with a maul, because he only has recreational campfires with his friends, and doesn't need another expensive power tool for this.
You probably have a splitter if wood is a primary heat source. Probably don't if you just have occasional fires.
My mom was just telling me about one of her friends in the church choir. He's a pretty traditional old small town Swedish Lutheran, and he was talking to her about his newly out as trans grandkid. His main concern in the moment was making sure his grandson knew he was loved and supported.
If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.
Remind me, is this one of the sites controlled by that "Silicon Valley Gay Mafia"?

The pièce de résistance was when they pointed at the then-popular Louis CK bit as backup for their position.
Some Olympic-level mental gymnastics.
On the other hand, if it's something you'd only be doing e-reader stuff on, the ecosystem doesn't matter as much. And YAC reader (among others) is out on Android, too.
As much as I'm not an Apple person, the basic 11" iPad generally seems to win out, as far as tablets go. The Android tablet ecosystem just hasn't ever matured, unfortunately. : \
While I do my ebook reading on a Kobo (eInk), I do any comic reading on an iPad. I use YACReader for CBR files.

SAM ALTMAN: "People talk about how much energy it takes to train an Al model ... But it also takes a lot of energy to train a human. It takes like 20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time before you get smart."

"careful who you confront with 'us'"
I said the imagery leans into ugly stereotypes about gay men. That's a group that includes me. "Us" is entirely the right pronoun to use when talking about a group that includes oneself and other people.
While I would not want to draw direct equivalencies, given differences between marginalized identites, boy-howdy does this have some historical parallels.
And they even acknowledge the conspiracy theory parallels in the article!
