Also, this.

During Canada’s last Federal election, PM Stephen Harper and leader of the opposition Thomas Mulcair continually addressed or referred to Justin Trudeau as Justin rather than Mr. Trudeau.

In my experience this was the case before legalization to, and still is in most places where it’s illegal.

I’m a good driver! I’ve only been in one car wreck and have only been sued one time. Why should I have to keep my insurance, that was years ago and I haven’t had any wrecks since then, but I see people with crashed cars all the time! My premiums are paying for those!

It’s an appropriate sentence. What’s wrong is that one mid-level patsy is taking the fall, and the conspirators higher up the ladder are getting away scot-free.

I asked a co-worker earlier why he would vote to increase his personal tax burden in exchange for cutting taxes on the top 10%. Literally said, “well one day, I hope to be in that tax bracket” and “you don’t want to kill innovation”. This, from a dude who is actually pretty capable, at least as far as managing people.

This whole article series has been excellent. Very interesting to see a salvage high performance car bought a low price and turned to a Pikes Peak race car and then becoming the faster Corvette ever up the mountain, with room for improvement still. Please do contribute more to Jalopnik.

Yeah, it took me about 7 hours to get off the first planet only to realize that there was less content on the next ones :-/

I used to work for PayPal and several other payment processors in the past, so I thought I’d stop and make a post about how chargebacks work through PayPal and other payment remitters. I haven’t worked in that industry in years, but from what I understand from old co-workers, it’s roughly the same policy-wise.

You can use it with SteamVR. Valve has been making sure to not limit themselves to Vive and Oculus allows you to enable unknown sources. I’ve been tempted to get one because I love the controllers but I think I’m going to wait and see if HTC does something similar with a newer version of the Vive controllers. And…

I keep telling people looking for new TVs to get one with good HDR instead of just focusing on the 4K feature. Seeing things in 4k vs 1080p can be a marginal improvement, HDR vs standard is often night and day.

I found out about this from my dad. After having dinner with him, he sent me and my sister a text saying he loves us and not to go anywhere alone for the next few days.

The reason it actually wasn’t a killing field was because police trained in use of firearms showed up, not because a bunch of yahoos imitating a spaghetti western started spraying bullets everywhere.

Never sell your Mustang other than to upgrade to a newer Mustang. That’s the rule. :-)

Making America great again through convict leasing.

I’m pretty sure my account was sold on one of these sites, but I have two step authentication, so I got about 30 codes sent to my phone in a couple minutes, then the guy tried to change my password. Not sure why he thought that would work since it goes to my email account...which also has two step authentication.

I’m a veteran; I actually was in the Navy when the towers fell. I still clearly remember walking into the wardroom onboard my ship and asking what crazy movie everyone was watching, as I had just come off watch and found the entirety of the ship’s contingent of officers staring at the TV — Captain and XO included.

I like the part in which he says “and they totally understand and are entranced in a world that we know nothing about”.

Does Nintendo consider it messing up though? In the past, it was their tactic to intentionally short supply of their product to retailers. It kept the demand high and kept the retailers beholden to Nintendo and whatever strategy they had.
