Dude I love that shit. Especially citrusy flavors. But everyone’s tastes are different.

They have a large stake in OpenAI, last I checked.

That’s incredible.

I was quite conservative back in 2006, having been raised that way and still years away from my “enlightenment,” but I knew Colbert was satire. I still thought he was hilarious. I’ve always thought it’s important to be able to laugh at yourself.

Bush clearly felt the same, he was laughing right along with the roast, and had just finished doing a bit with a Bush impersonator that also roasted him.

But Trump is incapable of humility, and cannot stand the traditional presidential roast at the Press Correspondents’ Dinner.

Are you a liar or ignorant? Or maybe both?

Yeah. The crash should’ve been survivable. If, as many have theorized, the pilots lost both engines (or believed they had), gliding to the runway with no gear or flaps makes sense. Both would introduce drag and could prevent reaching the runway. Unfortunately, they landed long and fast, preventing them from slowing sufficiently. Even so, at most airports this shouldn’t have been nearly so bad. It would’ve been bad, but not “explosion and loss of nearly everyone on board” bad.

The direct cause of the fatalities in this incident is that damn berm, something that would never be allowed at a modern airfield in the United States and shouldn’t be allowed anywhere. If you need additional height on the localizer, you use a tear-away structure that will not cause an aircraft to explode when struck.

You might be right. Although as I understand it, a person who is excommunicated can be re-communicated (or whatever it’s called) by repenting and turning away from whatever caused their excommunication.

Excommunicate the bastard

He isn’t a member of the Roman Catholic Church. They excommunicate their own, not Protestants. Or, indeed, people who pretend to be Protestant.

Those people are inherently excommunicated, which is to say not allowed to participate in the sacraments of the Roman Catholic church, since they aren’t members.

Oh I didn’t read the article. That’s on me.

Most rich people aren’t billionaires. Most people at a ski resort aren’t the problem.

Wealth, shown to scale

(Just keep scrolling, it’s fascinating.)

I don’t use TikTok but I knew plenty about Israel’s actions. It was all over the internet and plenty of news sources.

That’s fascinating!

All they’d need to do is generate thumbnails for every period on video load. Make that period adjustable. Might take a few extra seconds to load a video. Make it off by default if they’re worried about the performance hit.

There are other desktop video players that make this work.

People got pissy because, in an effort to show all the things the new iPad Pro can do in an insanely thin form factor, Apple made an advertisement in which a bunch of paint cans and musical instruments and books and other stuff were crushed by a giant hydraulic press, and when it rises up, we’re left with a crazy thin iPad.

I thought it was creative. And the new iPad Pro is WILDLY thin. Discounting the camera bump it’s the thinnest device Apple has ever made, thinner even than the iPod Nano.

But the internet got all butthurt because it was disrespectful to art and music or something. They thought the ad was saying we don’t NEED paint or instruments anymore. But obviously the point of the ad was that all of that stuff is squeezed into this device, not that we can destroy everything else.

You know how the internet is. Someone will always be mad about something.

Edit: For the record, I’m a musician myself. I’ve sung with a professional orchestra for fifteen years. I’ve played violin (albeit not very well) for most of my life. And I use an iPad for my sheet music. Before anyone tries to tell me that I just don’t get it because I’m not in the offended demographic.

The first woman in space was a lesbian and I wouldn’t want it any other way.

No, the first American woman in space was a lesbian.

Valentina Tereshkova, who beat Sally Ride to space by twenty years and two days, isn’t a lesbian (as far as we know). She’s been married twice, both times to men.

Leo is a pedophile. He won’t openly date a child but he will go as low as he possibly can without going to.jail

Leo’s behavior isn’t very socially acceptable, but he isn’t a pedophile.

His explanation is that he doesn’t have any interest in starting a family or having children, and he thinks that the drive to do so for women kicks in in the mid-to-late twenties. Women he dates know this going in, they know it’s never going to go anywhere real, they know there’s an end date. They get to participate in his lifestyle, they get to meet a bunch of important people, etc, in exchange for a sexual relationship with a very wealthy, attractive man.

They’re young, but they’re adults capable of making decisions for themselves. Maybe some will regret it later, others won’t. But regardless, it’s a mutual agreement between adults.

Gross? Creepy? Yeah, especially the older he gets. Sexist? Oh absolutely. 100%. Pedophilic? No.

Edit: fixed a formatting typo

And yet they turned down having thumbnails for seeking because it would be too resource intensive. 😐

I’ve got this bad boy. Has a nice big battery in it, can last a few nights without being charged.

It’s not a fan, but the white noise is really good and it has lots of sound options. Highly recommended.

Money on Zuck been making his own version of TikTok on Facebook.

That’s just Reels, already on Facebook and Instagram.

Here’s the thing. You said a “chimpanzee is a monkey.”

Is it in the same infraorder? Yes. No one’s arguing that.

As someone who is a scientist who studies monkeys, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls chimpanzees monkeys. If you want to be “specific” like you said, then you shouldn’t either. They’re not the same thing.

If you’re saying “monkey infraorder” you’re referring to the taxonomic grouping of Simiiformes, which includes things from lemurs to librarians to humans.

So your reasoning for calling a chimpanzee a monkey is because random people “call the monkey-shaped ones monkeys?” Let’s get raccoons and koalas in there, then, too.

Also, calling someone a jackdaw or a crow? It’s not one or the other, that’s not how taxonomy works. They’re both. A chimpanzee is a chimpanzee and a member of the monkey infraorder. But that’s not what you said. You said a chimpanzee is a monkey, which is not true unless you’re okay with calling all members of the monkey infraorder monkeys, which means you’d call librarians, humans, and other apes monkeys, too. Which you said you don’t.

It’s okay to just admit you’re wrong, you know?

Well of course not. It’s a feature of the Castellano accent in Spain.
