Similar to what happened in the 2008 housing bubble, companies have been giving car loans to people they know probably can’t afford it because they know they’ll probably get the car back again pretty soon, and the person will still be on the hook for the portion they owe for the time they had the car. Plus interest.

Orcas are smart. This article suggests it’s not intentional and maybe out of curiosity? Whatever. They figured out how to sink boats without ramming full speed. How much you wanna bet they’re pillaging the sunken ships for food and drinks and stuff. Special little treats that sailboats happen to carry. Or maybe they get pissed off when one of them dumps their lavatory waste or something.

We used to have ramp newbies handle the lavs as a sort-of right of passage. The Lav fluids we called “blue juice.” One day I told a newbie to go to maintenance and get a bucket of “red juice.” He disappeared for an hour. We were wondering where the hell he went about when he showed up looking a bit stressed out, actually carrying a bucket of red fluid of some sort. Apparently he started going around the entire airport’s maintenance shops asking them one by one for red juice, none of them knowing what the hell he was talking about. Instead of asking for clarification over the radio he just kept going. Eventually somebody in a completely different concourse poured some hydraulic fluid in the bucket for him. I was a bit astonished and then had to figure out what the hell I was going to do with a bucket of hydraulic fluid.

Is this blog yours?

I think a better term to use would be “fact-based policy.” I believe that even if we intended to rework politics to be more scientific, it would just lead to all the same manipulations and twisting of facts that current politics involves. Don’t like a particular scientific consensus because it interferes with your goals? Hire a bunch of “think-tanks” to publish contradictory papers. Hah, guess what, that’s where we already are.

I’ll bet the only reason this ended up a news story is because of one of those Brits who writes for the travel section was on the flight.

Last time this guy delivered, my mouse was missing a leg.

I’ve never understood that one. I understand even less now that I’ve written a Powershell script for remote troubleshooting at work. It started simple, but now it gathers tons of information, a lot of which is from the logs. On some machines it takes literal seconds to search and pull all of the log information. I could run this script probably 15 times in the time it takes to even launch Event Viewer.

Sort of. It pretends to disable recommendations, but things like shorts that show up in feeds a related videos are still skewed toward you. They just disable the ability to really scroll through them to try to encourage you to turn it back on. You can trust their profile on you is still kept up-to-date ;)

My YouTube is well-trained, but this is how my Instagram is. Didn’t use it or follow anybody on it for years. Recently took to scrolling and watching funny dog videos on there. I was showing my GF a funny pupper and accidentally tapped the search loupe at the bottom. BOOM. Bouncing boobies and butts covered my screen. I just kind-of stared at it in disbelief, saying “What the hell?” She got a laugh out of it. I guess this is a big part of instagram now.

You’re thinking of Matthew McConaghey, but I can totally see how you got that mixed up, LOL

Likely, however, Zionists also don’t like him right now. A high-profile popular Jewish politician speaking out against Israel’s actions in Gaza? Yeah, there’s a lot of high emotions there and he’s probably made some more crazy enemies. Right now, I’m 50/50 on which one of these two it might be.

Keep in mind that although there won’t be a problem getting that drive to work with that motherboard, you will likely need to reinstall your OS. If it’s Windows, you will also need to worry about licensing and activation.

lol, my dog had one of those. I also thought it was a skin tag, at first. I live in a place where there aren’t a lot of ticks; we had adopted her from another part of the country. One day, the sucker was suddenly like 3 times the size, so I took a closer look. I had been giving that little bastard pets the whole time.

I heard rumors they were internally testing one, but I have a feeling they were caught with their pants down on that one. It was probably Google’s LLM, which I would assume is why they may now be partnering with Google for that.

Oh ok, good to know! They’re always lumped in with MLMs so I always thought they were one. I appreciate the correction, even if they still have a predatory business model—just a different one than MLMs.
