My brother in christ, I'm not talking about the pretext the government used to attack Iraq. I'm talking about the fact that the two things had nothing to do with each other.

Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. The fact that the government used that as a pretext doesn't magically link the two things.

I met a man from France who said that the French spoken in Montréal is "real French." I was pretty shocked to hear that.

I'm old enough to remember when Doom 64 for the N64 was $74.99. In today's money that's around $145.

I'm not saying that's reasonable, I'm just saying it used to be a lot worse in the cartridge age.

He (Linus Torvalds) made Linux as a hobby during his time in college/university to teach him about operating system design. Because it was the part of the operating system called the kernel that the GNU project didn't have yet (more on this in a moment), it became very popular. Richard Stallman created the GNU project because he believed that every person should have the right to study and share the software that runs on their computer.

There is nothing specifically anti-corporate in either of their motivations.

I've been using some Linux flavor for about 15 years. The biggest thing about switching (at least back then) was I knew how to configure Windows just to my liking. With Linux it was a lot more difficult because I had to google everything. Like "how do I change the wallpaper?" How do I get the login screen to appear on the correct monitor, etc. It was just frustrating because I knew how to do this in Windows, but I felt like a major noob again with Linux.

Please, use vous for the cat.

It seems like alternatively you could cross the border to some other country and not have to do this anymore. Slovakia gets all the breaks.

According to Wikipedia, Texas doesn't have a "with parental consent" law. If he's 53, she's gotta be 17 or older. They wouldn't be able to get married until she turned 18.

I made about double that on betting that Donald Trump would lose the election after he had already lost the election. Now that was something I'm really proud of.

Congrats on the promotion...?

Where's your shell?

This is the second most interesting fact about the Lions. The most interesting is that the last head coach of the Lions to be the head coach of another NFL team after he was fired/resigned from coaching the Lions is Buddy Parker.

Buddy Parker quit in 1956 and was later the head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Since then, every Lions head coach never became the head coach of another NFL team.

If you get fired by the Lions, your career is over.
