Yeah. DC has some very pretty metro stations. NYC has SO MANY stops in Manhattan it was silly when visiting.

I play the Sunday as a group and my God. Crosswords have some of the most bullshit rules.

You can put multiple letters on a single square? Reebus. You can also have an answer that's a whole phrase instead of a word.

Ah, gotcha. I tried learning Bayesian probability once and failed utterly. One of the only classes I just barely passed (stat was the other). My brain just barely computes it.

Kbin knows the article is totally fucked and just trying to insert a little bit of brightness to combat the existential dread.

Good AI.

Minor correction: in a few billion years our sun will expand into its red giant death phase.

Also: our star can't go nova by our understanding of astrophysics. If it actually can, then we might need to throw out a lot of astrophysics, including predictions on when our star will expand.

Also also: the odds of the dice giving double 6s is MUCH higher than our sun going nova at any point in time even if it could go nova and was overdue.

Wow that's a huge variety of utility apps. And most people are used to granting permissions to apps at this point without considering since most have that pop-up.

Since this is isn't the general just they primary, couldn't the RNC just choose to not have or ignore the primary like the DNC is doing?

They already declined Jack Smith's request to take this question up early. They clearly don't want to touch it. Unsure if appeals will cause these removals to be stopped or allowed to continue or not. If an appeal stops his removal, I'd bet that would be their goal.

They're trying to impeach Biden for literally nothing. They said they'll figure it out as they go. It's a literal witch hunt. They're trying to make impeachments mean nothing so that twice-impeached Trump can shrug his off.

Do you think people will just accuse candidates of insurrection willy nilly? I mean I bet Republicans would since they're trying to impeach Biden for literally nothing. But I don't think those will pass scrutiny. But Trump absolutely committed actions that could be considered aiding insurrection. Hense the 14th amendment cases.

TV used to be free over the air. Commercials were in-show. Often done buy the hosts themselves talking up a product. Pretty much exactly like YouTube and podcasts do now.

Then cable was invented and they charged for it. But commercials never went away.

For defense? No. For extermination? Also no but it makes it more deniable.
