Yep. The best option of all bad choices I think.

No. As I mention in a lower post, I can’t actually use anybody’s cloud service. There are issues about where the physical servers are located and the security requirements of their physical location that differ from what is required here.

I cannot do that. I’m not allowed to put such data on cloud services like Google. People always say cloud computing is the option, but there are a host of security concerns. Essentially, we’re not allowed to store data where someone else (e.g., the provider), has access. Even if they have strict guidelines and…

Great advice, but to be honest, I’m the most worried about traveling to the US. I work for a German University. I have a research project that I will almost certainly have to do some work on during my trip back home to the US this summer because I am giving a conference presentation right after I return. Most…

Look. I get it. There’s mental gymnastics you’re doing. It’s your bill. How could it be bad? But sometimes, you gotta “evolve” on the issue.

Hmm. “Strong-armed campaign manager.” Sounds like his plan is to dig deeper.

Yeah, I mean I don’t disagree with the thesis that they’re evil and they’re losers, it’s just feels out of congruence with real world tragedy.

Oh Yes. Quark needs to become solvent and not be in debt when he dies to get to Ferengi heavan. Something about selling his remains before he actually died.

I’m guessing you’re female, so this might not work quite as intended, but I think what you’re looking for is the bro-hug. Handshake/shoulder to shoulder hug, without full enclosure. The trick is to offer the hand for the shake and siddle in kinda sideways so you only get the shoulder hug. As a bonus, even if he makes…

Hey Patrick,

I mean to be fair, Trump was already on-air talent from the Apprentice. It’s just one of those doublethink conundrums.

Eh. It’s neutral to negative in connotation. In this case it’s strategy and not applying to people, so it’s a pretty neutral connotation, with slight negative undertones. He’s not exploiting people, natural resources, mother earth, etc. Maybe not the best choice, but hardly a really bad one.

I assumed it was a special case of them wanting to market to Blizzard players. But it could be Activision trying to expand it’s ability to compete with steam.

Depends on the backroom deals everyone makes up.

Nope. Not happening. President Pence will issue pardons. Just like last time.

Ok..., is your stance that stereotypes are good, and defying them is bad? Just trying to understand your logic here.

Yes. This is exactly what SciFi settings are for!

My mother taught me not to say bad things about dead people. That’s all I have about Roger Ailes.

They’ll be seeing how many pardons President Pence will write for the Trump administration too.

Hmm. Good point about the order. I mean, the peak-end principle works pretty well for that last season. But if you don’t finish the season that means your end is at a pretty low point. But taken as a whole, there are some damn good belly laughs (Steamboat Willie-ing the wall!) and ending - Cinco de Cuatro.
