As if my ADHD ass could choose to only pay attention to the subtitles anyway?

It's like reading a road sign while driving on the freeway. I can read the sign out of my peripheral vision, without focusing on it or taking my eyes off the road. I assumed everyone did this?

Heroin, amphetamines, alcohol, and cannabis all have genuine medicinal uses, and also all can be abused depending on context. Drug consumption is a fine, value-neutral term, which can refer to both their use and abuse.

Horrifying. Rest in peace.

This is part of why some of us never stopped riding steel frame bikes.

Some countries have actually legalized squatting in certain situations (like if a building is long term empty) to put some fire under the landlord’s ass to either find a paying tenant or sell. And honestly I think it’s an inelegant but effective solution.

It’s not productive to have real estate units sitting empty in the middle of the city and we simply shouldn’t allow it.

I believe the Navy uses xbox controllers for controlling periscopes, not the entire submarine.

He honestly seems like a fairly accomplished and responsible citizen scientist compared to the Oceangate clown (RIP).

Like, I don't trust carbon fiber for my bicycle frame and stick to steel because that shit cracks easily. I can't believe this guy rolled the dice with carbon fiber on a fucking deep-sea submarine.

Man, I don't use linux or a steam deck, but that seems like a poor choice in the long run. Seems like more people are using linux for gaming all the time.

I don't think so, considering that the Russian Federation already "inherited" the Soviet Union's permanent member status.

For size comparison, Rostov to Elets is about the same distance as Boston to DC, or Marseilles to Paris.
