A Trump steak, which is worse than both.

The article says nothing about her husband partaking, so presumably there’s another sober adult present and no risk.

You asked why they’re basically attacking what they were supposed to defend.

They consider themselves heroes. They need to be heroes because otherwise they’re nothing. And heroes need villains to fight. If you’re not hailing them as one of the heroes, then obviously you’re one of the villains. It’s standard Sith absolutes.

(Edit: I see the word substitution that turned my reply to nonsense now. Ugh, sorry… :) )

If you’re the hero, then everyone who isn’t vocally on your side is the recent enemy.

Edit: “Recent”? Goddamned autocorrect.

Right on. It’s better to die peacefully among the clouds than it is to die afraid and screaming, like your passengers.

(Recycling an old joke, not trying to be snarky or mean, btw)

The problem is, you don’t get a say in the matter. If the marketing company sells on your data, you don’t get to say no.

If Ford wants telemetry on your car (and they do) and they sell it to your insurance company who raises your rates because you don’t drive in a manner approved by corporate, you don’t get to say no.

If you search for wigs and antinausea meds, and Google sells that to health insurance who guesses you’ve got cancer and are a financial liability, you don’t get to say no, and you don’t get to argue that you were planning for a party.

If you’re a fifteen year old kid and your browser starts showing gay dating ads to your extremely homophobic parents, you’d better hope they don’t put it together because you don’t get to stop any of it.

You can control how your data is gathered, but you have ZERO say in how it’s distributed and interpreted.

What? Not only is it an Ubi game with mediocre reviews, but now you’re telling me it’ll be rushed to PC? Now my heart is all aflutter.

It’s not that the wind is blowin’…

It’s what the wind is blowin’.

The story in the article about the guy who tried to get into the cockpit is amazing… he’s lucky he didn’t get himself killed by the other passengers. Since that little incident twenty years ago even Granny will chew on your face if it looks like you’re pulling that shit.

Rogan is what happens when the barbarian doesn’t have a miniature giant space hamster to whisper common sense into his ear.

Unfortunately, we know how this is going to go: “If you won’t let us ban books from the library, we’ll just ban the library.”

Oh man, I can’t imagine the cost to get the smell out of the seats.

I’m waiting for the inevitable “this lawsuit is so scary we might have to fire another four thousand people…”

Yeah, at a certain scale you’re not paying for the technology… you’re paying for a scapegoat.

“We just love our customers so much, it makes us crazy sometimes…”

I think their point is that when everyone’s income is $0/hr price becomes pretty much irrelevant (unless also $0)

How many are saying they won’t vote for Biden, though?

Put another way: I’m not going to believe in a new product more than the vendor does, because that’s stupid. And we’ve had it demonstrated time and time again that the vendors don’t believe in their products.

A fine example of Betteridge’s law.

Woman In Total Control of Herself. There’s a song and everything!
