well I don’t think cocaine is the sort of thing that should be legalized, but my guess is it would probably look pretty much like legal marijuana production, which has worked out pretty well here in Colorado. If cocaine wasn’t so much more addictive and harmful than Marijuana I think it could be done without involving…

Well to me that sounds like your employer sucks, not that you’re doing anything wrong on your end.

Sully himself says as much. As far as airmanship is concerned putting it down in the water properly is a basic expectation. The decision and the decision making process is what’s really impressive to me. 

In Russia fight controls check YOU.

This is the big, over-arching problem that really screwed over the whole trilogy before they even started sketching out a plot - the trilogy was going to feature the OT characters but not star the OT characters. In retrospect they probably could have told a better story if they had either left the OT characters out…

I think what he’s speculating is that there isn’t any one, truly sacred timeline, the timekeepers just picked this timeline becuase it is the one where MCU Loki failed to take over MCU New York and eventually got killed by MCU Thanos... for whatever reasons the timekeepers have, they are trying to maintain that…

There was NO DOUBT in my mind that I would... until I thought, what would a cute female me look like? and realized she’d look like my sister.

THIS^^ OG AVClub knew how to bring the snark but it wasn’t usually snark just for snark’s sake (which the OG Gawker was guilty of as often as not). Yes they had some arbitrarily hot takes now and then, and sometimes the writers wrote dumb shit and got called out for it. But generally speaking there was some truth (or…

Hercules Rockefeller just rolls off the tongue a little bit better and Max Powers is a little to cheesy... It’s also the name of a Pug my wife and I had many years ago. He was a fat, lazy lap dog so it was a nicely ironic name for him.

In Utero is absolutely great from the opening riff on Serve the Servants (damn that’s got the same double drum beat doesn’t it?) all the way to All Apologies. “Teenaged angst has paid off well” has to be the most 90's alt/ grunge lyric imaginable; in one sentence Cobain acknowledges and dismisses everything about…

Obviously the sample size here is nowhere near being significant, so from a scientific or statistical perspective 1/25 is completely irrelevant. But from a news perspective, if 1 out of 25 of any expensive new product catches on fire that’s a story. If Apple or Samsung released a high-performance, limited edition…

When you’re goin down the slide and you feel something glide...

I will definitely hear those drum beats a bit differently now, but it’s not that shocking after learning that the main riff in “Smells Like Teen Spirit” is lifted nearly verbatim from Boston’s “More Than a Feeling”. Listen to those two songs back to back and you will absolutely never not hear it. 

That lawsuit was absolute bullshit, it was all over borrowing the “feeling” of some songs and the big smoking gun was that they listened to another artists music in the studio? They’re fucking musicians, they love music! and now they’re not supposed to listen to great music, or be inspired by it? fucking ridiculous.

well if the alternative wasn’t people who think he does no wrong, that would be great. The thing is, Musk is a complicated, extremely ambitious guy and his companies are all attempting to do very ambitious things. There are really great aspects of that and things that Musk and his companies have / will likely…

The big cell companies actually already have those, they’re called SatCOWS (sattelite cell on wheels) and they are indeed used for things like natural disasters, or to add bandwidth around very large gatherings. Nextel used to have a fancy Nascar themed SatCOW that followed the NEXTEL cup around all year long.

5G can cover tons of distance, in fact it could cover just as much if not more than any other generation of telecom technology. the frequency used for the service is what determines range. Lower frequencies = longer wavelengths  that travel further before degrading. Verizon, AT&T, and T-mobile all have spectrum…

You won’t get 100 down where you live though, it will only be able to do that in very sparsely populated areas. Musk stated today that it’s intended for the most rural 3-5% of the population.

But that 30 billion isn’t a surprise cost; it’s a projection of future capital costs. Any responsibly managed company has cash or cash equivalent investments and lines of credit sufficient to cover short term costs (especially if it’s publicly traded as not having that would be a huge red flag to investors). So…

He reminds me of a friend I used to have who was a really good guy, but also at times a huge asshole and easily the most violent guy I’ve ever met. He was generally nice enough and cool to hang out with, he’d help you out with stuff if you needed help with something, just kinda the sort of guy who you say “yeah, he’s…
