Fuck you Larry.

has the added benefit of potentially provoking them into getting themselves arrested if there are cops watching.

As long as the cops don’t sympathize with the nazis

I also choose this man’s dead wife.

Russia uses nukes in Ukraine to “win” the war. Now they control land that has large swaths that are completely unlivable and non-productive for farming. And the “livable” parts Russia would have to spend huge sums of money to re-build the infrastructure from the blast(s).

Even if the rest of the world let’s them get away with that (which I doubt they would) it doesn’t seem like a very good strategy.

I think this company has few different teams that work on the problem from different angles

Some are on the boats in the Pacific some are building interceptors in rivers in countries that are the largest producers of waste that makes it to the ocean. Of course they can’t fix the problem just slow it down. The fix comes from these countries changing how they allow garbage to be collected and stored.

All your ideas would need to be legislated.

This is what fucked Bernie Madoff.

If this person had gone to VC’s with a pitch for ‘AI listening model’ with the explanation that “Now musicians can up load their songs to streaming services and AI will listen to make sure their pitch and tonality is accurate and that the beat is correct.” or some bullshit like that. Then it would have been ‘legal’

From what I’ve researched in the past ( I don’t have time to look it up) is that due to fact that women naturally hold more body fat than men that they then have more energy to use on endurance runs. That while they are not faster than men due to smaller muscles they can move for longer periods of time due to having more fat energy.

I could be wrong it happens often with me.

your are connecting two different pieces of data. The speed that a person can run a marathon vs. the ability to run a marathon.

What they are stating is that women are better able to run that distance not that they are faster at running that distance than men.

I’ve thought about this idea for a long time.

Having sensors in the road (along the side and middle line) and receivers on cars would do a lot of good.

The sensors could tell the car how close it is to the side/middle. They could tell the car how close other cars are around them. They could tell the car the condition of the road surface (ex wet or icy). They could be programmed to the speed limit of the road and keep the cars moving at that speed. Probably many others uses.

The downside is building a sensor that can withstand weather, traffic, crumbling infrastructure. Also they would have to have a way to stay powered up for years. And if you made them re-programmable there is another level of security that needs to be added to them. And then there is the cost to retro-fit all the roads with these sensors and building a common receiver that could be installed on new cars.

I don’t think my idea is practical at all but it’s a cool idea

weight loss is great but as you get older building muscle and strength is just as important - especially if you are female.

Had a guy pass me on the right going 20+ over the limit while taking a bong hit.

Capitalism that is bounded by strong regulations that are consistently and fairly enforced by government (the people) entities isn’t that bad.

It’s when those regulations get watered down or just removed in the name of “freedom” that we get what we have now.

Kinda shows what kind of person she is.

True. But the people advocating for these laws don’t want to deal with nuance and compromise on what it would take to have a society where you educate people on sex in a healthy and positive way. These prohibitionists see the world as either bad or good - nothing in between. Good (how ever they decide to define it) must win no compromises, and the weapon that they use is unfounded fear of the bad and it works.

And the reason fear works is because it is easy and visceral and reality’s complexity doesn’t work for media’s need for sound bites.

At least nothing like this happens in the airline industry

I’ve dealt with this too from an anti-vaxxer. It’s really frustrating when you can’t even agree on a common source for the data being discussed.

With this person, every source I told them I got my information from was wrong or biased - yet that same rebuttal from me about their sources were loudly talked over and/or the goal posts were moved.

That may be a reason for it. If so offer them the opportunity to just watch, to consume D&D as they do podcasts. They can leave whenever and it won’t mess up the game, but it also may get them more interested and want to commit to actually playing.
