I was skating at the local ice rink, and tripped. I think it was an Olympic-sized rink, but that might have been the pool... it was pretty big, anyway. I bounced my head off the ice so hard I saw blue and red fireworks (only time that's ever happened to me), and slid half the length of the rink on my face wherein I crashed into the barrier. That shit hurt, I still remember it vividly 30 years later, but luckily nothing broken. My mum was simultaneously aghast, and relieved and amazed I wasn't more injured. She was convinced I'd have fractured something in my face when she saw me fall.

Here's how you know it's not ready: AI hasn't replaced a single CEO.

As reported by Torrent Freak, Ryan Daly, the alleged owner of modding company Modded Hardware, has denied any wrongdoing in court โ€” even that he owns and operates the business at all.

Daly mostly responded to the lawsuit's claims by saying "denied" and otherwise claimed he lacked "sufficient information to either admit or deny the allegations." His defenses include fair use, invalid copyrights, a lack of standing, fraudulent inducement, an arbitration clause, failure to state a claim, and unjust enrichment.

This guy sounds halfway to SovCit and entirely fucked.

"Double-neurodiverse"? Look I'm all for more acceptance and understanding of me and my ND homies, but I'm pretty sure you only get the buff effect once no matter how many conditions with that flag you have; it doesn't stack.

Are you okay with tampons in boys' washrooms?!

Yyyes. And it's weird that republicans are not. They're hygiene products, not a political statement.

Nah man, this is very concerning. You don't need to calm down; I think everyone else is too fuckin calm about it.

What I want from anyone supporting this decision is a single example of a situation where the President would need to break the law in an official capacity. I want just one. I'll not get it, but I'm gonna keep demanding it.

Ah yes, the tough politician's greatest nemesis: being called mean names by kids one third their age. Big Manchin' Joe was rightfully scared for his life.

I'm sure it's nothing and everything is fine. Now, who wants to buy some of this Reddit stock? I'll cut you a special deal so you don't miss out! ... Anyone?

A GIF of the human "success" animation for researching Core Waste Dumps, from the game "Master of Orion 2: Battle At Antares". I actually played a game all the way through to this point to get the footage, as I didn't have it on any of my games in progress at the moment.

Not only that, but the post I made it for got buried under downvotes, so nobody'd ever see it if I only posted it there. I hope other enjoyers of this sci-fi 4X classic find a pleasant dose of nostaligia in it ๐Ÿ––

Good. What kind of a fucking psychopath sees a car of lost young people and decides, instead of offering directions or at worst leaving them the fuck alone, that they deserve assault with a deadly weapon?

Goddamn deranged.
