They may be the only company in this space as unfocused as xAI. They basically bought a podcast to use as a mouthpiece. It’s just dumb and anyone who would consider investing in this company as to doubt their leadership and decision making. What a waste of their money.

Bryon Noem will be in for a few of these bad boys.

Is that the head of the FDA?

Pass the bill and the refine it over time. People will find loop holes and then those can be closed as needed. Laws don’t need to be perfect at first pass, but getting it on the books would be a huge shift in the right direction.

Haven’t similar lawsuits been lost based on the precedent set by baseball cards and such?

This doesn’t surprise me. While I take some low dose meds, the periods of my life where I exercise even just a little, are significantly better overall. I started my current low intensity program now and I have much more energy to balance work and being a dad and husband. Glad the science is backing it up, but I hope this doesn’t cause people to just assume exercise will help everyone with much greater burdens than I have.

Don’t downplay the importance of influence. That was a large audience and using the platform to at least say something encourages others to start being comfortable saying the same thing. Most people aren’t the protestors in Minneapolis, including most of us here. By opening the door to outward criticism, people that follow these artists and listen to them are being given further permission, internally, to voice the same opposition.

No, it’s not as brave as standing face to face with tyranny in the streets, but both fronts are worth fighting on.

I mean she was 23 or 24 when she said those things. Most of us are total morons at that age.

I hate that there’s no room for atonement and growth in the current conversation. I don’t know anything about her other than what I see in this article, but if she’s genuinely sorry and looking to support the people she hurt, that’s worth a ton. She grew as a person. Good for her.

They probably need to show investors that the money spent developing it is worth it. “We’ve added X amount of users this quarter alone!”

I’m certain the driver was panicking and unable to process clearly. The DRIVER is not supposed to be the trained professional in this situation.

I just like to ensure accuracy because the people who agree with the police will seize any error to show why we’re wrong and the media is biased and blah blah blah.

They didn’t say “get out of here” they said “get out of the car. Get out of the fucking car”

Either way, they murdered her and will get away with it.

Little known fact: Davis’s scat work was just him imitating the sound of popcorn popping from inside the bag.

I know what I have to do, but I don’t know if I have the strength to do it.

Thank you. That’s the entire reason I did it.

That biscuit’s pretty limp.

Sorbitol-degrading Aeromonas bacterial strains convert the sugar alcohol into a harmless bacterial byproduct.

“However, if you don’t have the right bacteria, that’s when it becomes problematic. Because in those conditions, sorbitol doesn’t get degraded and as a result, it is passed on to the liver,” he said.

Pretty big caveat but the sensationalist headline is all people will see.

From the article:

In May, on Costco’s earnings call, Chief Financial Officer Gary Millerchip told investors that about a third of Costco’s sales in the U.S. are imported products. Millerchip said items imported from China represented about 8% of total U.S. sales.

Millerchip said that while Costco was seeing a direct impact from tariffs on imports of some fresh food items from Central and South America, it decided not to increase prices “because they are key staple items” for its customers.

Some of those fresh food items included pineapples and bananas. “We essentially held the price on those to make sure that we’re protecting the member,” he said.

In September, Millerchip told analysts: “We continue to work closely with our suppliers to find ways to mitigate the impact of tariffs, including moving the country of production where it makes sense and consolidating our buying efforts globally to lower the cost of goods across all our markets.”

Steam Machine is interesting. It feels like a solid time for someone to disrupt TV based gaming.

It was a big deal when it happened. Much of my family works in public education so there was definitely a big conversation about the administration’s lack of action.
