Soon as he dies in an arctic circle prison I'll agree with him.

Burgers, hot dogs, onion rings, kielbasa, the -wursts, sweet mustard on German Pretzels; goes into several salad dressings, marinades, or things like egg salads; sandwiches, corn dogs...I'm sure there's more I just can't think of it.

Running wires is expensive. That's why most people opt for wireless, and on top of that, the convenience systems like Ring offer with their app, no NVR/DVR, none of the typical security system hardware cluttering things up.

Don't argue on the internet.

It's not easy to find people who are willing to talk with you, most want to talk at you, and aren't interested in good faith discussion. State your case, clearly and with sources as needed, and don't waste your time with your opponent's butwhatabout, JAQing off, irrelevant exceptions, and goalpost moving.

I'm sure that many apps that people think will be great will probably not be allowed. They'll still be scrutinized for any DMCA or other IP issues that Apple will not want to deal with.

No, fuck the people that take the founding fathers as infallible - when it suits their argument. The FF did what they did, and at the time it was groundbreaking, but they didn't count on populist stupidity taking what they wrote and amplifying the worst parts of it ad nauseam.

Wallace and Gromit episode - except with a cow.

Look like little Jim Henson monsters.

I asked Midjourney to draw itself. Somewhat similar of a look, though Midjourney seems to think itself a bit godlike. Edit: difficulty uploading from mobile. https://imgur.com/gallery/TETnZqg

They’re like teens who think they can live on their own but have never had a job or had to pay bills. They sit around creating a big mess, spending their parent’s money with their friends, and create a big fuss whenever they are asked to do something useful to help around the house.

The current batch of republicans have never actually had to do the work of governing. They just keep making a mess of everything, piss away money with their rich friends, and throw a hissy fit when actually asked to do actual work of governing.

You talk with someone and have an interesting discussion, somebody says something incredibly snarky/quippy instead of engaging “in good faith” and the other person gets dog piled on, or it devolves into a flame war and insults start flying.

TBF this is every Internet forum ever.

The solution is tight moderation. However, that ends up with the same old tired argument of limiting speech and the the user base because people don’t want to participate somewhere highly restrictive. We wind up with moderator fiefdoms because people are biased and some get over controlling when they get a little power. It’s a really hard balance to strike.
