I'd prefer the risky sex and drinking to trump any day of the week.

Pray they don't, but I'm almost certain they will now that the US is appointing complete morons to every portion of the US government. The US won't really be able to help until this rot gets cleaned out. China has four years before we can really help Taiwan again. (Or at least give them air superiority)

His gross VP and like, half the GOP would have to go with him. All the monsters like Miller are already burrowing in like a parasitic worm.

The new commentary is really good, tbh. I had no idea how much research and R&D they did. It looks fucking amazing for a 2004 game. The characters in particular.

Did you manage to extract it from the garbage disposal?

I recently bought a cheap phone after I broke my main one, because I needed something while my main one was being "repaired". It turns out that this new cheap phone has a headphone jack AND a better stylus. It also had a solid 1000mah bigger battery and 10w extra of charging over my old flagship.

When the repair shop told me that the 20 cent ribbon connector couldn't be replaced and that the repair would be $600 for a new screen and glass back, I decided to keep the cheap phone, which works damn well. It's so nice to have a headphone jack to use again. All my other shit still has headphones jacks from my PC/laptop/SD to my car and stuff like kitchen stereos. I can use my Bluetooth earbuds, but they only have about 5 hours of playback and have a bad click in one bud after the first year of use.

I'm almost disappointed at how good this mid-range, $250 phone is compared to my $1,700 Samsung. I've been wasting money for years on flagships. Not going back after I got my data transferred to my new phone.

Don't worry, we have offline porn backups just in case. (In all seriousness, I hope the people and ship are caught and arrested.)

It probably was bad actors, but occasionally, ship anchors dragging along the bottom can also destroy them (eg, oil tankers, extended cargo ships, cruise ships, etc.)

Yeah, the man behind the desk. :)

The mom is pretty cute too, though the principal's clothes are a bit more timeless.

Elite Dangerous. Well over 1,000 hours, especially with friends to explore the black with. Hard to get into, but it has so much stuff to do. It made me passionate about space! (And it's always fun reading articles about a far-flung star and thinking "hey! I've been there!")

That is surprisingly expensive there. I think it's like 12¢/kwh here (though we have block one and block two prices depending on how many kwh you use in a month, so it could be a higher rate if you are eating through tons of power).

NGL, that is pretty damn cool. I love desktop layouts like that too :)

Hello! I've had a watercooled PC for a number of years, but more recently it's been difficult to find EKWB Cryofluid Clear at reasonable prices. I'm thinking of switching to something like Mayhem's x1 coolant, or Alphacool's eiswater.

Any suggestions? Will it matter that some old fluid might still be trapped in a rad even after a flush? I'm hoping to not do a full teardown.

I'm thinking about going with this:

A 12 year old submitter her design and overwhelmingly won the competition. The stickers should be coming out this election, see if you can snag one if you live there!

 

Please vote in the general election this fall! 54 people in the state determined the outcome of the primary!

This is the person who controls all five million acres of public lands and forest fire management.

 

Salivating for mid-block crosswalks, more armored bike lanes, daylit intersections, and more on the west coast, too.

 

RealPage, maker of YieldStar, is almost singlehandedly the ones causing rent to skyrocket across much of the United States.

One of the algorithm’s developers told ProPublica that leasing agents had “too much empathy” compared to computer generated pricing.

You can learn more about them here and why this antitrust case is so important:

Very invasive, like bedbugs of the garden. They prey on grapevines and other plants in your garden, and are spreading quickly. Kill them if you see them or their mud-like eggs!

 

I love stories like these: scientists and the NIH working to create a cure for an unprofitable disease, just because it would make the world a better place. And in the interim, making new discoveries that might potentially benefit society at large.
