ACAB, always. I dunno why people still act surprised.

Last time one of these articles were posted, it was brought up that traditionally the sponsor (usually a car dealer) would take out some kind of insurance policy (which the presumably do for other sorts of promotions they aren’t expecting to win, which explains better how local mom & pop dealerships can be doing

Why would she be SOL? She isn’t currently a pro, and hasn’t been for 18 years.

I’ll quote David Miller, chairman of the board of trustees of Southern Methodist University, “It’s a couple hundred million dollars. I’m not losing sleep over it.” While he has nothing to do with BNSF, it tells you how the corporate world looks at things. In the case of BNSF, fines/settlements/judgments are expenses

The argument is that having a cipher PC means that the entire world has to be a set of disconnected amusement

Harder to play and also just significantly less joyful. Menuing is not exploration. There is no “ooh whats that over there” impulse except when you’re literally within cities. Something is either placed directly on your lap, or you have to just pick a location from a menu and hope there might be something interesting

The cop must have feared for his life, the toddler may have been packing. 

The fact that this guy was still on the job not in jail is a fucking disgrace.
