@_@Mrfunkedude my wife and I have done Thanksgiving in a Crock Pot. I think we put turkey pieces on top of a bed of root veg (beets, carrots, sweet potatoes). I feel like there might have been some celery in there too. Maybe some broth. It was a few years ago and I don’t remember exactly.
Amused at how Altman helped himself to a woman who denied him multiple times, because he was fond of her*, and despite the fact that she was literally the only person in recent history to sue Disney and win - and that no one else in his circle tried to dissuade him (or had enough pull or made enough effort to be successful).
Says a lot about the people at the helm of the "AI revolution".
Outrage that a reckless driver's car might gently beep at them.
...as early as 2032:
The technology uses GPS to compare a vehicle's speed with a dataset of posted speed limits. Once the car is at least 10 mph over the speed limit, the system would... https://jwz.org/b/ykQi
Sometimes the way people phrase things is so telling. For instance, telling women they should be "taking care of" their husband and children. Another adult doesn't need taken care of like a child, what you want is for women to be a Sex Mom.
@farah@RickiTarr I’m a dad and it’s amazing how many times I’ve been praised by people when doing ordinary parenting tasks in public.
Like, when I would take a toddler by myself to a coffee shop for breakfast, people would say “you’re doing great, Dad!” And while I guess it’s meant well, I’ve never seen that happen to a mom.
Another comment I’ve gotten is “I see you’re in charge today!” This happened to me when I was a SAHD, so I was like “I do this everyday 🤷🏽♂️”
@Bryan as someone well into their 40s, it’s unsurprising I’d never heard of this before.
These drinks have similar ABV as malt liquor: Each BORG (1 gal) has a fifth of vodka (750 mL), which is typically 80 proof (40% ABV), so the end result is roughly 8% ABV. So, if someone drank just a pint of this, it wouldn’t be excessive.
But drinking a whole GALLON (almost 4 liters) of this stuff, holy crap!!! It’s basically the same as chugging a gallon of malt liquor, strong beer, or weak wine.
@Bryan that said, I’ll sometimes mix up my powered sports drink in a gallon jug, and from now on I’m going to call that a “virgin BORG” 🤣 (although I’ve never drank the end product in one day)
It's a good thing Louis Pasteur had a decent last name to lend to an acceptable term like pasteurized milk because can you imagine if his last name was instead something like Jizzeur?
I’m so glad public libraries already exist. Could you I magine trying to sell the idea of libraries to politicians in 2024?
“You want to build a large public complex on prime real estate that gives away free books & education & community events—paid for by our tax dollars? Are you crazy??”
I'm a simple woman so maybe I don't understand this but if I were personally ordered by a judge not to tamper with the jury at my trial and then I did it anyway 10 different times and then I told my convicted sex offender coworker to tamper with the jury on my behalf and he did it and then bragged about doing it... I would not still be gallivanting around this side of a jail cell. And neither would my dipshit sex offender coworker.
Someone please explain this for me. Someone explain real slow because I'm fucking livid this gigantic treasonous asshole keep getting away with crimes that are designed to let him get away with the crimes we're trying to convict him of.
@Lana@tuban_muzuru they already made him a martyr, for even being tried. For even being investigated. For even not getting re-elected. For even being protested when he was president. For each and every time he’s been criticized. For each and every time he wasn’t treated like an infallible god-like figure.
In this episode of Amazon Prime series #Upload the main characters are stealing "gigabytes" from other uploaded dead people, to give to poor uploads who are rate-limited to 2 gigs/month. Then my tv lost its connection to the internet.
Oh dear, my Dad is letting people in a Facebook bird photography group know he is not happy with people nicking his shots and it's going about as well as that time Josh fronted the press corps with a secret plan to fight inflation.
