You might call bullshit, but this actually happened to me. Went to a showing with a friend and as we’re going into the theater some black guy who actually WORKED at the theater comes running up shouting, “YOU IN THE WRONG THEATER!”

While it might be quality, this illustrates why K-Pop will never be able to match American Pop.

It was six million Canadian.

Lest it seem like I’m trying to rah rah Bitcoin, I’m simply pointing out that there’s still a long way to go before Bitcoin actually tanks.

Just going to point out that Bitcoin, at this time, is still 40x more valuable than the last time it ‘cratered’.

They did buy PayPal. That’s when they forced everyone over to using PayPal as the primary payment option. Then they split it off. It’s one of the more head-scratching moments in eBay history.

The pop-in pop-out adds were the last straw for me. Reading content and it suddenly jumps off the bottom of the screen. Scroll to find where I was and resume reading and it suddenly jumps off the top of the screen.

I sometimes wonder... it’s not unknown for fiction novels to be based on game campaigns or characters the author played in or ran.

For all the talk about Lorca ‘not behaving like a Starfleet captain,’ I seem to recall there were a number of original series episodes where the villains or at least antagonists in the shows were Starfleet captains.

Honestly, I felt like a huge opportunity was missed with TLJ... Holdo should have been Hera Syndula.

Did he explain why the tailor shop doesn’t have a lock on the front door, yet the owner was able to lock the door, and we heard it lock, even though there was no lock?

Sounds like the danger of a poorly worded post. If she’d posted something like, “A ‘vegan’ just ordered a cheese pizza,” it wouldn’t have been an issue.

A bit of a spoiler on the Expanse entry for people who haven’t read the books.

I think it was meant to be reminiscent of a high-waisted kata.

I have to wonder how much 911 systems not having proper geolocation capability enables swatting. Would this have gone any differently if the 911 operator had gotten the call, been given a Wichita address and then seen that the cell phone reported its location in California?

If you run at a cop acting panicked, screaming, “He’s got a gun, he’s going to kill me!” you will absolutely be held liable if the cop then responds by pulling his weapon and shooting the person behind you, and it turns out that they didn’t have a gun or threaten you in any way.

Not to mention that they also heavily limited distribution of the packets to specific stores.

Same reason the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen didn’t give a dime to the comic creators.

But if you aren’t accelerating, then your pursuer can just accelerate and catch up with you. They weren’t burning fuel to maintain their speed, they were burning fuel to maintain their acceleration.
