Yeah. The Bidens are safe. The assailant is under arrest. Nobody’s dog got shot.

It’s obvious why this is a confusing outcome.

Me, noticing Riker: “I don’t get it. Why is Abraham Lincoln here?”

Me, finally noticing Picard: “KILL IT WITH FIRE!”

And yet it still has a bunch of ads for PC+ littered throughout it. Despite being grandfathered in, I abandoned it earlier this year for Podcast Republic, which hasn’t spammed me or locked me out of any features I’ve tried to play with despite not having paid them anything.

Honestly, I’d take a woody window to replace the clear glass overlooking the scenic parking lot outside literally any of the apartments I’ve ever lived in.

Hahahahahaahahahaahahahahahahaha

Land of the Free, folks

Self checkouts tend to have a hand scanner too

I’m going to guess that this is regional or vendor specific, because I’ve literally never seen a self-checkout with a hand scanner. And if I ever did, I would expect it to transform into a broken, dangling cable within a few months.

Meanwhile, stores all but stop manning existing checkouts, forcing everyone to line up to check out their own stuff.

In business, all data are vanity metrics. If they make you look good, you slap that shit on everything; if they make you look bad, you “don’t have it”.

It’s just that sometimes you can use negative data to make decisions that look good to those above you, and sometimes you know that you can’t.

It’s the word of the day every day they be doing war crimes.

Not only is it impossible to evacuate that many people in that short a time, but they’re basically declaring that they’re going to use their military to targer and kill civilians.

Which is a war crime.

“Hamas did it first” doesn’t give them a pass here. If it’s not ok for Hamas, it’s not ok for the Israeli state. And inverting that, if it is ok for the Israeli state…

their value comes from them being relevant

The news’s value should be to society, though, not shareholders?

GM: “You experience bij.”

Edit: You’d think I’d know to check what autocorrect does to what I type by now.

Yeah, I’m wounded by the commission omission of Cape Breton. But I think it’s just that there’s nothing dubious about our islands.

Edit: Sausage fingers and rogue autocorrect.

So this is what became of Barth after YCDTOTV went off the air.

He was “forced” to buy because he, uh, signed a contract saying he would. I’m sorry, but “voluntarily signed a purchase agreement” is only “forcing” if you believe people above a certain wealth level can do whatever the fuck they want with impunity.

He could have backed out and paid the fine he agreed to pay in the case he backed out, but he didn’t want to do that, either.

He’s not being investigated by someone else.

He can’t win because he’s a fucking idiot.

Being able to identify the characters might help some, but otherwise no. It’s a two part capsule episode

Essay Tea, eh!

No. Especially if you have work experience, doing a MA or an MSc will be taken for the career pivoting skills development you sell it as.

Don’t do a PhD, though, unless you’re specifically trying to get into a job that looks for them. That is, unless you specifically want to do the PhD for the sake of doing it. A lot of employers see it the same way a retail employer sees a BSc - a sign that you’re a flight risk.

Nope nope nope nope nope

Are you trying to erase Odo?

Worth nothing that Augustus used the title “princeps”, which was also an existing title in the Republic. And his power came from holding existing offices. He was careful to make himself the ruler of Rome using the existing governing framework.

He just negotiated that he would hold these positions for life.

This is the same thing Julius Caesar did, except the existing title he held - dictator - carried too much political baggage.
