RIP Gawker

Not unless I want Hulk Hogan to sue me out of existence, I’m not.

I assume you’re talking about Peter Thiel?

The richest people in the country are always the biggest Welfare Queens.

How is it sneaky to release a fix to a serious problem (even if its only a partial fix)? That is what is supposed to happen. Feds investigate. They’ve told Tesla to address it. Tesla immediately releases patch (presumably first of many that will address other use cases). Once again, Jalopnik = Tesla hate.

This is all a wild overreaction to 11 collusions with emergency vehicles over 4 years. In reality, emergency vehicles drive and park unsafely quite often, since they’re doing unusual things in order to respond to emergencies, and as a result are about 5x more likely to be in accidents, and cause deaths, than normal…

Jesus. You all can’t just report something, can you? It’s an improvement that’s been discussed as a goal. Why does tha reticle have to go with “sneaky” just to throw shade?

“two cultures rubbing up against each other in unusual ways.”

Here’s hoping Amofah is found alive and well—and gets the help he needs. It’s not looking good, and dragging that kind of body of water for one person is very much the epitome of needle-in-a-haystack work, but until his whereabouts are confirmed one way or another, all anyone can do is hope he set his stuff down and…

If I’m working in-person with a student, I agree: error indication (“there’s a problem with this word/sentence”), paired options (“do you mean ‘pro gamer’ or ‘programmer’?”), and similar techniques work well, especially when varied with “linguistic input,” or directly giving the necessary word or phrase.

Speaking from the English side, we’re beholden to the prescriptive standards of written grammar for a couple of reasons: we’re required to teach to the conventional standards of written…

Ahahha, right on xD SC is the most expensive nothing we’ve seen in ages xD

Ah... fashion designers, always thinking themselves so ahead of the curve, so world changeing, so original, and then they come with a half assed version of the braguette.

Is water from washing machines a concern then into our water supplies?

Yo Mamma’s so fat, she always makes you late due to time dilation.

Yo Mamma’s so fat, all she eats is pasta due to gravitational spaghettification.

Yo Mamma’s so fat, the only thing that escapes her mouth is Hawking Radiation.

Oh, you mean this poster that isn’t at all hidingit? It’s more like the one people are altering is actually heavily darkened, or just oversaturated with inks to the point it was blacked-out. I mean, you can see what looks like really cheap printer lines all over it, like it was taken from a second source, printed and…
