What a goddamn weirdo

Well that's the strongest argument for making a Bluesky account that I've heard

It's probably guns. That guy who shot all those people at the music festival in Vegas snuck a small arsenal into his room and they didn't notice until the shooting.

Florida/DeSantis did it at least once last year. Although Texas was seemingly heavily involved in that too...

Holy shit, they really buried the lede with that headline. For sure, throw away the key.

I have clear memories of the pastor at my parents' church talking about how the gay agenda's next steps were legalizing bestiality and pedophilia. Probably would've been somewhere around 2014-2015. Looking back, it was absolutely the beginning of the end of me having anything to do with religion, so maybe it's actually the best sermon I ever sat through.

Careful, I'm sure there's some asswipe from where I grew up who wants to throw a bunch of guns in and walk away to let them "sort it out" or some shit. If you go redneck enough reality begins to satirize satire.

This new research has shown a specific protein is present in the blood and placenta in individuals with preeclampsia. That protein is also being investigated as a cause (or at least indicator) of Alzheimer's and lasting damage from traumatic brain injuries. Seemingly that's the only link so far, this particular protein. Assuming all this is repeatable and there's causation, the protein is probably a step along the way to a root cause.

Do you have any idea what sort of chemicals are in those frosted bulbs? Obviously you can't smoke meth out of them, it might cause health problems.

As long as you have a free market and not a coordinated one it will work out great for you guys too

Ah, so we're fucked

I'm glad the new owners decided to increase rodent pest control, leading to less food for stray cats to eat in the area.

The linked URL at the top is The Seattle Times reporting on this comment. The original comment was just being reposted here for full context.

I don't know the ins and outs of the ADA, but I disagree with your analogy. What Starbucks is doing is akin to Walmart charging a different price for milk and oat milk, which I don't think anyone would say is not allowed. It's not like there's a sheet of lactose you have to walk through to get into a Starbucks or anything, there's just things on the menu that people with some food allergies can't order.

  1. I'm torn between face and balls, face would probably be more satisfying but balls are usually funnier.
  2. Let's go no handle, the handle might impact accuracy.
  3. I'm kinda feeling silicone, I think I'd feel bad about something harder. Silicone would keep the event fun and cathartic, ceramic might lead to blood everywhere.

I periodically stumble across Joel's blog and it blows my mind how relevant it typically is.

The deductible is an amount that you pay out of pocket before insurance starts covering anything. So if insurance doesn't get billed, the money doesn't count towards the deductible. This may make it difficult to lower the bill at all, it really depends on how much the entire bill is compared to your deductible. If you can't pay it though, they'll have to give you an affordable payment plan. Definitely negotiate and don't take a loan out from some other source to cover.

Yeah, I'm not actually that worried. I've seen these in use at hardware stores for quite a while now. It's just useful to assume that Walmart is planning to fuck you over. That's a good point with BT though, many of the kind of microcontrollers that would be used for this sort of thing offer BT connectivity as well.

There's not really a way to do that with this technology. These are just price tags on the shelf, so if they changed the price it would change it for everyone in the store.

But you don't carry the sign with you. It stays at the shelf. Sure, they could build a system that tracks you everywhere in the store and marks what price they showed you and tells the register what price to display when you check out. They'll try all that, but this won't do it yet.
