Wait, did Dane Cook ever claim to be progressive? And also, has he been accused of shit? I just thought he disappeared because he was a one-trick pony (and joke thief) and people got tired of him.
Unfortunately, maritime law going back centuries establishes that, while it’s the Suez Canal pilot’s fault that the ship grounded, it’s still the responsibility of the Ever Given’s captain. It may seem unfair, but that’s the way it works.
You’re not so important that you have to be two places at once and there’s no prize for being ‘most productive’ after you die.
You saved me a huge amount of typing - exactly what I was going to say. Hot hatches and cheap customizable stuff turned me into a car guy (Ford, particularly)....now almost all that is gone from them and I really don’t care about them as much anymore. That’s many years down the drain for me.
Zoinks!
Two thoughts on the new D&D movie:
With the weaponizing fans, I was referring to the whole press release package they had when they got banned from the Apple store. They knowingly got themselves banned with a planned way to market the entire situation as them standing up for both app store developers and the consumer. They even included a…
Or you know, when they tried to weaponize their fans against Apple and Google while clearly trying to do the same stuff they want people to fight against (and willingly going against the terms of service they agreed to in the first place to start the whole mess).
I was producing educational material for medical radiologists some decades ago when an existing technology called nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) was adapted to medical imaging. However, this was around the period of the 3 Mile Island episode and the alarmist movie The China Syndrome’s release. In order to allay…
What do we do with the by products of fossil fuels....? Oh yeah, eject it into the atmosphere and kill 4.6 million people/year
Reprocess them—separating the fission products from the remaining fissionable material chemically. Not cheap, but doable; it’s how France manages to get 70% of its electricity from nuclear without accumulating spent rods. (I think they’re still working on a repository for the medium half-life things, but it’s a lot…
Jaczko said when he was head of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, there were 104 licensed reactors in the U.S. but the number is down to 94 now and will dip even further as more plants come up for retirement.
Advocates who have pushed for the closure, including Natural Resources Defense Council and Riverkeeper, have pointed to a woeful safety record, the plant’s potential as a terrorism target, and the risk a Fukushima-type disaster poses to millions living in the metro area.
Through sheer bad luck, the reactors are one of of the East Coast sites prone to infrequent but serious earthquakes—ones we didn’t recognize until recently because, y’know, infrequent.
And/or tsunamis?

Arranging books by colour is book arranging for people who do not read!
On the one hand, I used to use the “OK” symbol...like it has always been used until the last few years in which alt right shitlords decided to co-opt it. I will occasionally feel myself doing it and have to remind myself “Oh, wait, this belongs to incel Nazis now, which is SO SUPER FUCKING COOL AND LOGICAL” and switch…
It only is if you are holding your hand with the palm away from you. Palm toward yourself, that’s actually a really comfortable way to do it - much more so than trying to tuck in your pinkie with your thumb.
