I have the Asus unit, and aside from some weirdness when you pair them initially (had to factory reset and do it again), it has been fantastic. One in the basement, and one on the 2nd floor. The app also works well enough, and it’s been a godsend for keeping kids off screens with the parental controls.

I never ask “why”, only “if”. I’m more concerned with how that plays out later in life, and if they think they’ve got it covered, then great.

Also, the guy talking about a “lawless society” was fucking rich. Not to mention most of these police abolitionists want a return to neo-tribal justice, because the rule of law is considered “white supremacy”. Also, I love the idea that property just magically reappears, without thought to the time and energy invested…

Left because they got rid of my favorite zones (except Mercury, because fuck Mercury) and they capped weapon power level. Do not regret.

And not just a democrat, but a leftist

The audiobooks are great, weird pronunciations aside. Also, me and my wife still use our imitations of the Ogier voices to make each other laugh.

Those who can’t, regulate.

How can there be racism if it wasn’t a white guy? I’ve read numerous, numerous times on this site (and The Root) that minorities have no power, and therefore can’t be racist. Sounds like the guy was just funnin’ around!

You missed that part of the study where they admitted to cherry picking participants that would be unlikely to abuse drugs and weren’t mentally ill. The implicit assertion in that selection process is that they know that direct payments would not be effective for those groups, or could not be ethically studied on…

I guessing you’re a toxic person they longer had the energy to deal with. Your narcissism will make you process this truth in a way that turns it into “gaslighting” or something else “done to you”. The statistical probability of so many failed interpersonal relationship being the fault of others approaches zero.

Boo hoo a few tankies died. 

Capstone course in b-school was a one project, one final class, and the final was a 3-hour, 4 blue book open book test. I didn’t even finish it, but the curve was so insane that I somehow ended up with a B.

Yep, racist skins wore that shit all the time back in the day along with their dumb ass shoelaces, and its symbolism is a direct import from England. So maybe discontinue it all together?

Fuck this guy. Bosch is good.

I had a customer once whose last name was Czyz. Go on, give it a shot without looking up how to pronounce it.

At an awards show, 100%. Have some professional decorum and preparation. But meeting someone or reading their name for the first time, especially if it’s a foreign name? Get over yourself. My last name is pretty simple and people literally add letters to it all the time trying to turn it into another name. I don’t…

The height of narcissism is being offended by people mispronouncing your last name, especially if its root is in a foreign tongue. The equivalent of assholes who pick apart an immigrant speech for not being perfect or making malapropisms. Also, a lot of names require your tongue to due things it has not done before in…

Capitalism is successful because it can innately handle, sans a central planning committee that will ALWAYS fail, failure. Those market vacuums, deaths, and failures are the fuel for growth all societies require to sustain themselves. The pain that birth/death cycle creates can’t be ignored and should be mitigated…

People just want the uniforms and badge names so they can dox, perpetrate terror/violence on the officers and their families

Tyler’s articles were the best thing about Jalopnik.
