Are you sure you're hacking hard enough?

Scurry away to the listless embrace of ignorance and bias.

Otherwise, you'll have to shiver think for yourself or shudder read...

It's not very surprising that you, making assumptions and crying about your own straw men rather than asking direct questions, thinks that linkerbaan, reveling in their ignorance, has credibility.

Oh, anything in hackers from '95

In hackers, hacking means to literally jump into a 3D world where you like battle and dodge the programs and connections between web pages which are corporeal.

Hackers!

Awesome. I'm going to use this in real life.

This is one of those goals that I make really important to myself.

So Trump can attack witnesses that testified against him, but he can't attack jurors because the judge left that in place?

Why lift any part of the ban?

He kept most of it in place, why lift any part of it?

 

Haha yea. CinnamonBunzuh.

awesome

I think a correlation here is also the fact that it's video game music, which tends to be very repetitive but engaging.

So you might want to explore other popular retro video game soundtracks, because a lot of them will have a similar feel as the track you posted.

Yup, the average for US mass shootings, as in multiple victims of gun violence from a single shooting, in 2024 up to June is 1.5 per day, or about one mass shooting in the US every 16 hours.

You might be thinking of regular shootings, where only one person is injured, which is way more common and includes suicides and accidents.

It's not profitable or it's risky.

It costs money to produce, archive and distribute older or more obscure media in the current sales infrastructure, and you'd have to get the rights from whoever owns the rights, so it's just a big hassle that costs them too much money that they don't know they're going to make back.

Or they do know that they'll definitely not make it back.

Whereas they know if they sell Frozen five they're going to make money on it.

Okay, so almost two mass shootings per day is the line at which a US official is willing to speak out against gun violence.

Good to know.

I would have said one mass shooting a week is really pushing it, but that's why they're the surgeon general.

Line in the sand: roughly two mass shootings everyday.

It's very common for Teslas to drive into things, like cop cars, parked cars, people and trees and off cliffs.

Sensors and software aren't reliable yet for high-speed driving or auto braking.

It might still be worth it. I'd rather have Auto sensors in every car and have them all brake all the time and maybe have people stop using cars so much because they're irritating.

Especially for those giant stupid American SUVs and trucks.

I like the idea, I just I hope they focus solely on make sure the car stops instead of getting distracted so that the sensors aren't good enough, because that's just going to cause more accidents

Got it, thanks. I like a mix in a lawn, i let my last backyard grow wild for half a year to see what happened. It was pretty cool, lots of honeybees showed up.

Ax gets a big ol' crush on

spoilerA genocidal sort of asshole.

Still, the heart wants what it wants.

This is a great book, testing ax's loyalty again.

A very good example of people insisting they're doing some necessary thing for the greater good by becoming the thing they're fighting against.

The characters and their Dynamics were very interesting in this book, non-stop action.

 

And the tiny desk concert after you watch this video and you're like oh my God they're f****** amazing.

I remember this book because as soon as you realize that Jake is gone, you're like oh shit.

Wow! This book is really good, dealing with leadership and Marco's criticisms and how poorly Rachel deals with the leadership she thought she wanted,

spoilerand then the absolutely batshit insane plan at the end that foreshadows Rachel's final act.

I also never understood why the garatron looks so much like an andalite.

Are they just like hey isn't evolution weird? This one thing looks like another thing but they're not the same thing.

I don't get why that was so important.

Also, I was so glad that Jake spoke with Rachel shortly at the end of the book. Perfect ending.

Since I learned the word estreen, the andalite word for an extremely talented morpher, I searched for fanart based on that and found some interesting stuff.

Beautifully colored, is this oil painting?

Artist is artbyLars

Update: Estreen! That's the word. Found it!

An exceptionally talented morpher is an estreen! I knew there was a word for it.


I can't find the word.

Isn't there a specific andalite word for how good Cassie is at morphing?

Artist - iara catunda

 

I feel like that game literally changed my life in the 2 hours or whatever it took me to play it.

That game is so beautiful. It made me a better person.

I was absolutely entranced.

Thanks. it's fine if nobody knows the answer to this or has not seen the movie, it's not a very good movie.

Yikes, I only remembered one scene from this book, and somehow managed to forget

TitleThe Atlanteans slicing open living humans and aliens to harvest their organs in the blood and sowing them back up into mummies.

Pretty hardcore.

And there's some cute Tobias Rachel back and forth.

Man, I wanna morph an orca.
