Apple sells refurbs. The headset hasn't even been out two weeks yet. Give it time.

I saved a bunch of these wonderful creations and sent them to my fiancé. I could just link her here, but...

SciShow did a piece (partially) about this recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXEFQH5UXHQ

And Veritasium did a deeper dive a while back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IV3dnLzthDA

The whole situation is thoroughly fucked up, but hey, as long as people are making money amirite? 😑

I love Nightwish, and this is a great cover.

Many moons ago, I was in an IRC room when power metal came up. Someone started talking about Elvenpath, so I went and looked up the band. "Huh, this is pretty good." So the first three albums went into my rotation. Then a few years later I saw a music video someone put together using 10th Man Down and footage from 08th MS Team and was freakin floored.

Getting a heat pump has been on my want-to-do list for years. But even though my furnace is aging, it still works so it's been hard to justify while there were other issues going on. Accelerating adoption is only going to make the process easier when the time comes.

Yeah, this shit happens all the time in NJ. Related to someone powerful? Here, have a free political position!

Andy Kim is getting my vote in the primary but with Murphy getting anointed like this, the full weight of the machine is going to be behind her.

The year is After Colony 195. With high expectations, human beings leave Earth to begin a new life in space colonies. However, the United Earth Sphere Alliance gains great military powers, and soon seizes control of one colony after another in the name of Justice and Peace.

I am now the pilot of a Leo.

Same, except I did watch the last episode. Agreed on Jet (perfection), and Julia/Vicious (what the everloving fuck). Spike and Faye were fine. Even with the missteps, I was still willing to see where they were taking it, if given time for a few course corrections. But they hit that cancel button pretty much immediately.

Engineer Guy went years between ~~books~~ uploads. I had to do a double take when he came up in my feed a few months ago.

It's almost as if political dynasties/neoptism/cronyism shouldn't be a thing. Fuck Trump. And fuck Menendez. And Kennedy. Bush, Clinton, Cheney, Paul, Ashcroft, and probably dozens of others that aren't coming immediately to mind.

Form the minute lil Robert declared he was running, the local media simply treated him as the heir to his dad's old seat. Because it was true. He cruised on connections, many of them because his daddy is a crook. I'm hoping Andy Kim can primary senior if he wriggles free again, but Murphy's wife is also running and would you look at that, now we're right back at unqualified people pretending they can govern just because of who they're related to.

Maybe one day junior will prove that he's not just riding coattails as a golden boy. But it's going to take more than an outburst to do it.
