Well at the the article did sort of explain why the team was pursuing this line of study. Too bad they didn't learn anything more useful.

I didn't even know this was coming. I'm beyond excited.

If you've ever been in southern VA in the summer you'll understand the name "Dismal." It is nice that we have protected wetlands though.

Ah yes, the "Flounder" of the snek world.

This article makes it sound like the hospital was attacked when it was the lab/pathology service provider that was attacked. So no access to lab tests/results means no care. I am real interested in knowing what lab information system they are using. My guess is that software company had their servers attacked thus shutting down access to the software.

I can hear the vocal inflections in this comic.

My theory on this is we use the imperial weights when describing the size in relation to the jail time associated with getting caught with it and then switch to metric for personal use.

I'm using mine almost exclusively now. My PS4 is dying and I don't want a PS5 so I'm currently buying my favorite games from that system in steam. Occasionally I'll co-op game on the Xbox with my husband and I'll pick up my switch whenever I get the itch to play animal crossing. But truthfully my vision is getting worse as I get older so the steam deck has become my favorite. My only regret is not getting the version with bigger storage. I haven't tried streaming games from my PC yet but that's my only option right now for larger games like Forza.

I agree. The same thing with the words idiot and moron. I find the whole evolution and usage of words to be fascinating.

That is awesome.

I really do think about this from time to time as to why we ever even used this word. I grew up the same as you where we all said it and used it as a replacement word for "ass" in situations where cussing wasn't allowed but you needed a word that hit a bit harder than calling someone stupid. I can't ever remember a time anyone I knew using it as a slur because someone would beat your ass if you got caught bullying anyone disabled. Now that I know that it is offensive I don't use it. But for me it's a bit weird fully relating to the current perception of the word in today's society because I still have mostly positive memories of goofing off with friends associated with it.
