No lol, don't try to explain it if you don't know what you're talking about.

Haven't they busted a handful of would-be Russian terrorists this week?
We obviously don't know for sure yet, but I have suspicions as to who's behind it.

I guess I'll just have to vote for Harris instead then 🤷‍♂️

There's no smidge of conscience, this is merely self preservation after he became aware that he was drawing too much attention to it.

It's hilarious how they continue to campaign against Biden despite the fact that he dropped out.

Trump also could have won in 2020 and we'd already be living in the dictatorship with no prospect of an election this November, so does the "you" in this time realize how lucky you are?

[–] Chainweasel 6 points 3 days ago

Yes, parties pick their own candidates and there's no rule saying we actually have to have a primary.
The parties could just put forward whatever candidate they want and push them for president, but if they do a primary they have a better chance at winning because they can select the most popular candidate with voters.
The primary is there for their benefit, not ours.

I miss when that mattered....

If they fire you, you'll probably be entitled to some form of unemployment benefits depending on where you live, if they keep dropping your hours until you quit then there's no such strings attached.

Depends on where you live, does it snow a lot? If so then AWD is absolutely better.

Well, with the exception of how much shit they give Biden for not being able to speak without a teleprompter, yeah it would be nothingburger.
But there's at least something when it's pointing out the hypocrisy of the right.
And just because they don't care about the hypocrisy doesn't mean that we shouldn't point it out.

 

I get it, Biden is old and that's a problem, but why doesn't anyone seem to have a problem with the fact that Trump is almost the same age, has 34 felonies, raped at least 2 women, went to Epstein's Island 11 times, sexualized his own daughter, stole classified documents, aligned himself with Xi and Putin, and can't remember common names?

Is all of that really better than being 2½ years older than he is right now?

My OS is on a 512gb M.2 drive, but the main storage on my laptop was a 1TB HDD, it started making noise about 2 weeks ago so I backed everything up onto a 1TB SanDisk USB SSD. This afternoon it got very clicky when I booted it up after work and icons for a few games I had stored on it, like KSP and YUZU, disappeared from the desktop and taskbar.

We already knew the September release date, nothing has changed on that front.

But, There are a few other interesting things. Mainly We're likely to see at least 5 more bob books but that's subject to change.
And Roadkill 2 is coming!!

 

If we're supposed to be able to understand math as easily as a language, we should be able to read it from left to right like a language.
Yes, I know there's lots other languages that go right to left or top to bottom, but the point is you don't have to go jumping around the page or sentence figuring out which word should be read first based on which characters it contains.
We put the first word first, then the second word second, etc.
Why can't we just write equations in the order they were meant to be solved?

 

Sorry for the disappointing news everyone. Looks like audible wants to hold it back until Q4 for some reason despite it being complete.

 

Edit: I mean to say just a significant amount, not a majority. That's obviously porn.

Book 5 and Spoilers (self.bobiverse)
submitted 7 months ago by Chainweasel to c/bobiverse
 

With "Not Till We Are Lost" likely to release sometime in the next ~60 days or so It's probably time to discuss spoilers leading up to and following release.
So for one, There will be a discussion mega-thread, but there won't be any rules discouraging posts for anyone who wants to discuss anything specific, which brings us to rules for posts.
I'm going to keep it relatively short and simple here as it's mostly common sense.
No Spoilers in post titles
This should be a given but I'm sure someone still needs to hear it.
Use spoiler tags in post body
Yes, you have to click on the post to see the post body in most cases, But some apps and instances show a preview of the post body text and it can be visible to people who didn't intend to view the post.

These rules will remain in effect leading up to release (samples that may be released before the book count as spoilers) and for 14 days after the release.
