  1. I will also be joining the club today. Ordered Monday, shipped yesterday, expected to arrive by 4:30pm today.
  2. This is the least surprising thing ever. Remember, this guy likely helped cover up a murder.
  3. Well good news is that viable fusion energy always just happens to be two decades away! We can use all that cheap, near limitless energy for massive desalination projects!
  4. Maintaining an entire intact body for the sole purpose of leaving it in the ground is so monumentally silly. The price of preparation, coffin, burial plot, tremendous waste.
  5. I've never composted before, but I was under the impression that too much meat wasn't good for the compost, fats might be even worse. And given the body composition of the average America I can't imagine we'd make good soil.
  6. Been loosely following the thread on this game on Era and particularly loved the part where they talk about the limited NFT horse skin that is literally just pulled out of the Unreal asset store.
  7. The Giant Bomb name obviously has a lot cachet, and it'll continue on in some form or another, they announced a focus on the "9 core" members, of which there are no 9 currently, so they've clearly added people. But obviously what Giant Bomb meant for a lot of people is clearly over. Just hope Jeff does something in the future that still allows people to hear his thoughts on games and the industry.
  8. End of an era. I like some of the new content that GB has done in the past year. I like Bakalar, sounds like Jeff Grubb is being brought on full-time. But when there's zero of the original crew left over, real tough to see how GB carries on in the future.
  9. Deckbot on reddit doesn't have updated data since the guy is on vacation. I was 80% of the way to my order and it seemed like it was jumping 10-15% each Mon/Thurs. Was hoping to get lucky today, but reasonably confident for Thursday.
  10. 🤔 This might be one of the most descriptive thread titles on this forum.
  11. Navarro indicted on contempt of Congress, arrested/in-custody. Former Trump adviser Peter Navarro indicted on contempt of Congress charges WWW.NBCNEWS.COM The House had sent DOJ a criminal referral after Navarro snubbed a subpoena from the committee investigating Jan. 6.
  12. I believe this. In the past two months, way more people in my personal and professional circles have mentioned having covid in the past two months compared to the rest of the pandemic, myself included. Fortunately, no one has had a serious case. I was probably testing positive for a solid week and a half after my symptoms died down.
  13. Their second instinct is to protect other police departments. So if TxDPS isn't going to protect UPD you know they fucked up bad.
  14. That is the general impression I get of Texas outside the large cities. You hear stories of a strip of highway that some local good ole boy sheriff uses as a piggy bank from fines and seizures. Or this judge in a county of less 60 people getting paid $130k a year and getting pinched for stealing cattle. Texas is just made up of big fish in small ponds.
  15. What else is there beyond healthcare and policing that the US spends significantly more per capita compared to other countries with significantly worse results?
  16. Cops shoot innocent people all the time, do they have a mental health challenge?
  17. I've been testing negative for like two weeks now, but I still got this occasional dry cough. Apparently not uncommon, but annoying. A coworker of mine dealt with it for like 3 months.
  18. I know my brother has been keeping an eye on this situation since he has a 4 month old, but he hasn't had a problem yet. But he live in Chicago and the perception is that the shortages are more a rural thing.
  19. I already posted thr Monty Python so g here once. I'll do it again if I have to.
  20. I'd like to see Cawthorn go scorched earth on the Republican party, but I think the reality is he'll slink off into conservative podcast grift obscurity.
  21. I don't go to a lot of concerts, over the last couple years it was mostly stuff I went to see in Japan. 2014 - Summer Sonic music festival - Saw Suicidal Tendencies play. Lead singer started off asking for a moment of silence because one of the original Z-Boys just passed away. The near all Japanese crowd either a)didn't understand him, b)didn't know who the Z-boys were, c)didn't understand the concept of a "moment of silence", or d)all of thr above. Later in the set he said one of the most profoundly stupid things I've ever heard uttered by a human being in my life. He said " what Americans don't understand is, it's not about what you say with your mouth, it's what you say with your heart." Also, I don't care for thrash metal, thought the music was bad, and the only reason I was at the stage is because I was interest in the band after them. 2017(?) - Deep Purple at the Budokan - I had seats so bad they were actually roped off until I showed an usher my ticket that I had seats in that section. Ian Gillan's voice was effectively gone and all songs had extended solos so he could sneak behind the stage to rest his voice or take oxygen or whatever. Between songs he told these rambling stories that I, as someone who ostensibly speaks the same language as him, couldn't understand any better than the Japanese audience could.
