Nah, fuck that noise. I don't want to start a civil war, either, but I'll be more than happy to end one. You're conceding ground to effective terrorism.

One thing I like about Lemmy is there aren't as many dipshits to block. This one is responsible for a lot of mindless propaganda in my feed, and now it's gone.

If the rule of law leads terrorists to attack institutions, then we need to stop those terrorists with force. We should not bend over backwards to avoid angering the terrorists.

Enter Trump.

Doctor fucks up.

The SCOTUS is thoroughly corrupt. We have three sitting justices who have been exposed as accepting bribes from parties with matters before the court, and we have two that are known to have committed perjury during their confirmation hearings.

There is zero accountability or recourse. We no longer live in a country with a rule of law.

There's a reason.

Adjustable height desk.

A good chair that is the proper height and adjustable.

Adjustable height monitor supports.

Ergonomics is all about geometry. Most of the problems people try to fix w8th wrist supports or ergonomic keyboards are really problems with sitting too high or too low in comparison to the keyboard and/or monitors.

The ability to raise and lower the chair, the desk, and the monitors independently will make a world of difference.

A scientific institute caught on fire. It was developing weapons systems. It was in Russia.

For anyone else like me who had difficulty parsing the headline.

You don't need to use the term loosely. All Christians are in the same boat. Some might be on one side of the boat or another. The people at the bow may hate the people at the stern, and they might tell you that they are on your side. But while they might be closer to you than the stern, they're still in their boat and you're not.

To make something that looks exactly like a pyramid, I imagine the easiest thing to do would be to fabricate large stone blocks and stack them the same way the pyramids were built. Cranes could make short work of the stacking, and if you're willing to spend more, you could make the blocks out of lighter materials like fiberglass and foam. Even with natural stone, you could have multiple cranes and multiple crews to be done in like a month. Fabrication and delivery would also depend on the availability of the materials, so that might take another six weeks if you're willing to spend the money.

If it were a standard construction project, you might budget for two years to create the drawings, get permits, bid out the job to contractors, prep the site, build the dang thing, and get final inspections. How much it would cost would also depend on materials selected and where it was built. Labor rates, land value, material costs, all of that varies by location and even the seasons.

Budget, Quality, Speed. These are the three corners of the universal priority triangle. If you want it fast and good, it's going to cost a lot of money. Fast and cheap will be low quality. Good and cheap will take a long time (maybe forever).

Sure, but neither will be fixed with voluntary action. Both will point to the other as a reason to do nothing.

We need legislation and regulation to require energy efficiency and clean energy production. If that means kWh get more expensive, then that is the true price of energy. Cheap, deregulated energy is writing checks our grandchildren will have to cash.

So you want Trump? Are you really suggesting that Trump would be better for Palestinians, or in literally any other way?

 

Look, we're obviously not the best team. We have significant flaws, and Embiid cannot carry this team by himself.

But how can you not be hyped after watching Batum raining threes and Tobias on the bench? Embiid took his time getting it together, but he got it done when it mattered.

We can beat the Knicks. We can beat anybody if we play our best.

Maybe we don't. Maybe we lose again and everybody starts thinking about next year.

But we are still in this. The Philadelphia 76ers still have a chance to show the world what they can do as a team. So let's get hyped and enjoy the ride!

 

I heard someone say this in a video recipe, followed by way more cheese than you should eat at once. It occurred to me that the phrase means ample, not nutritious.

 

Basically title. I'm curious how others are watch the game. I cut cable a long time ago, and have Hulu live for this season, but it's just awful. Their app sucks, the unskippable ads are all over the place, and tonight it started recording at 4:30.

So what is everyone else using?

 

Has this ever happened to you? There's a fly in the house, buzzing around you, so you go to the cabinet to get the swatter. But as soon as you start wielding it, the little bastard disappears. You set it down, and now he's back, taunting you.

Ok so obviously flies don't taunt, but do they have the capacity to recognize, even instinctually, that I'm holding a deadly weapon?

Anybody else want to see all five on the court together and just have them make a giant wall around the paint? No? Alright, me neither then.

So what the fuck is Morey doing?
