That’s an interesting distinction. Shoes from the outside - clearly dirty. You’ve walked on who knows what with the intention of protecting your feet from it.

This kind of article should be compiled into AAA and other travel agency brochures. Not just the tatami mats, but the chopsticks in rice thing - I’d have no freaking clue.

I’m sure it’s on purpose, but I’m also relatively confident that what’s being shown is an actual part of the model. The ability to change outfits requires a base model to craft them onto - the guys who program this stuff don’t make a separate character for each outfit, they just make a naked one and then apply skins.…

Well, his basic body type is a seal. He’s crossing his arms. He’s wearing a scarf that folds out to a pair of wings, wicked sunglasses, and a bra on his head. Plus he’s got a scar that bisects his left eye.

Seconded. The incredulous third person makes the article really fun to read.

Better than it being in them, I guess.

The problem I see with being reactionary is that I don’t think capitalist efforts will do a lick of good when it gets bad enough to require a reactionary response. If the sea levels rise and drown the coasts, we’re pretty well screwed for a few millennia. I don't know what capitalism can do to restore glaciers or…

They are doubleplus swirly good. Especially if you've taken your ration of victory gin.

Where are we at with those? Are we still using plastic sheeting and duct tape, or have we regressed to duck and cover?

Oh, there's a huge variety. There's the guy with the hair. You already named the brain surgeon who tells awkward jokes. That religious guy. That super-religious guy. The mega-religious guy. Glasses dude left, unfortunately. There's that guy who never gets asked questions in debates, and the thirsty guy who never shows…

For beginners, I recommend using the Konami code.

What does she wear when someone finishes the game in less than 90 minutes?

Those LoL players probably don't deserve that.

Google his name and you’ll probably get the gist. Maybe he’s just getting a lot of bad press right now because of this one thing, but all articles are overwhelmingly negative. Here’s a charming quote from one of them. (www.fiercebiotech.com)

This is the sort of behavior that pushes the envelope toward social revolution. Bankers losing half the collective wealth of the middle class circa 2008 raised eyebrows and encouraged a few protests, but we’ve more or less forgotten. They “explained” things, took more of our money, and started rebounding.

Do you think so? That was my first impulse, as well - that a known active ingredient should be relatively easy to synthesize and put on the shelf. But the weight of clinical trials is the potential deal-breaker. The R&D is already done but a new formulation still has to make it through clinical, which is expensive. If…

That, I don’t have the details on. I’m reading the CBS news report of the increase. I assume Turing Pharma acquired the formulation through majority stockholder status or outright purchase of the manufacturing facility.

This is the generic version. Anyone's free to make it. They just need to make their own. Problem is the market isn't big enough to reward the effort.

The problem is that it’s a niche drug. Even with the looser restrictions of a generic, there’s a big investment up-front to make a viable replacement. ROI would probably be in the decade realm.

He jacked the price on a 62-year old generic drug? Dude's got some cojones on him. And a complete lack of anything resembling a conscience.
