What about my butt?

That's some ceasefire.

Yeah. I don't think a lot of tech companies really thought through the impacts of Trump burning up America's international reputation.

It's hard to have an international presence when the international community hates your product and you no longer have leverage to negotiate.

I call mine the Criterion Collection!

What else justifies 60% market penetration?

Yep. I'm on the blunt side and I've been told by some people that they thought people did something wrong based on my direct communication. I had to respond that I work in an industry where you have to be blunt to communicate what you want, so bluntness is the standard.

On the flip side, I've gotten frustrated by people who are far more passive in giving direction because it ends up leading to poor decisions and rework that should have been addressed because they didn't provide clarity when asked to.

In the USA, Yankee refers to mainly northeast US, including the New York City area. Western Americans would be neutral about being called that and you might piss off some southerners.

My exposure to the term gringo has mainly been that it refers to white Americans. I don't know if you would call a black American gringo or how they would accept it.

The iPhone came out before Android, so Apple had first mover advantage it could solidify to a sticky user base.

Also, a "free" Android experience only occurs when you've got full control of everything. Android was a lot more willing to give up control to third parties, including carriers. With Apple, you're only giving control to one company.

Sounds like something out of a horror film. Your body heat melts you into the material. Then, as heat gets distributed and you have more skin contact, you are no longer generating enough heat to keep the gallium melted.

You either suffocate as the material solidifies around your abdomen or you freeze to death as the material pulls enough heat from you to kill you.

For someone who doesn't drink and with your weight, you'll probably feel one.

Also, mixed drinks are more variable on determining when you are drunk. The liquor used to make it may be stronger or weaker. The quantity of alcohol can also be adjusted by the bartender.

It didn't work for will.i.am, it won't work for them.

 
 
 

Jim makes The Muppet Show in the 1970's, shaping the show as a vaudeville comedy act. Meanwhile, Jim gets experience seeing the first season of Saturday Night Live up close and sees Lorne running around like a chicken with its head cut off trying to put on a show using live actors.

Obviously, Kermit is a self insert character of Jim himself. But, could Jim have included a bit of Lorne into Kermit at the time to portray a show runner at wits end due to his cast?

 

One person, with their AI, can create a fully animated show with audio and different voices done with the combination of the creator and AI.
