Killing off all the user blogs *and* losing Jim Cooke in the same week??? Read more

That’s fair. I think they’re aware of that though, and the reason why they were willing to call it early is because the majority of it was in Maricopa county.

Fox is also sticking by the call based on a detailed analysis of what’s left to count. It’s definitely not a sure thing until all the votes are counted, but it does seem very unlikely that it flips back to red. Read more

Yep. Read more

NV is pretty much a sure thing at this point, AZ is extremely unlikely to flip back (which is why some networks called it so early), PA is on track to flip blue by 6PM today, Biden is on pace to barely squeak out a win in GA (like, possibly under 2000 votes), and AFAIK the margin in WI is like 20x greater than the… Read more

Right. And the person it turned out to be was her, during a financially crippling pandemic that necessitated the service being repurposed in that manner in the first place, all for incredibly dubious reasons.

If she hadn’t exploited this loophole someone else would have, and these regulations would happen either way

I’ve been to several outdoor barbecues this summer (all according to guidelines!) and the fact that social distancing means I can greet and say goodbye to everyone without having to hug and/or kiss them has done wonders for my general aversion to social outings. It’s really helped me to realize that level of… Read more

Nice, thanks for the heads up. It will be interesting to see how they pan out.

Seriously. A color e-ink tablet with a halfway decent refresh rate would be a godsend for reading and marking journal articles.

Never was a fan of hers, but I have to admit that watching hordes of men lose their fucking minds because she rapped about a basic reality of female sexual arousal is doing a lot to win me over.

Yeah I can’t really fault you guys for this narrative, because it really has played out like a season of The Bachelor. Not only has Biden been “ready to announce his veep pick” for several months now, but I can’t even remember a time when it wasn’t a given that it was going to be a woman.

And some have wondered out loud whether the company is simply spinning the data favorably to salvage a failed drug.

Sadly, as Burton says, the pitch never got anywhere because rights holders Warner Bros. wanted a game that ran alongside the movie, not recreating its events.

I’d just be happy if they just remastered the Xbox/PS2 era hack’n’slash games.

Well I guess we both followed the common wisdom, because I also switched to Mullvad on the advice of other disappointed PIA customers and have nothing but praise for them as well. Overall it costs a little more, but given PIA’s debt problems that caused them to seek a buyer in the first place, I guess it’s true that… Read more

This. It’s really awful because I would otherwise have nothing but praise for PIA, as their service has otherwise been fantastic.

Well, if you’re feeling hurt, I have good news: if you enjoyed the Cellino and Barnes jingle between the years 2003-2007, you may be entitled to financial compensation.

I’m fairly certain that at one point it pretty explicitly states that the court is specifically *not* grappling with the question of what sex trans people “really” are - just that it’s necessarily impossible to discriminate against someone who’s gay or trans without taking their sex into account.
