Coping? What’s that?

Which is where hybrids have a huge advantage, getting the best of both worlds

Because any “official act” by the president is now legal, presidents are now kings, and the only treasonous thing is to not support anything and everything the president says or does

I’ve used OCLP, and I didn’t even realize they largely switched to Discord. That explains why finding some info was such a PITA when I was playing around with it.

I will never understand why people choose to use Discord as a forum replacement. It’s just such an awful platform for that.

Her birthday is in late October. She’ll barely be 35 by the point of the election in November, but she will still be 35. So, she’d be 35 both when elected, and when inaugurated. It’s a non-issue.

But regardless: she’ll be 35 by the point of the election anyway so it’s a non-issue to begin with.

She was born October 13th, 1989. That means she’ll be 35 by the time of the election in November, not to mention before the inauguration in January (the date that actually matters). So, she’s definitely eligible.

5 meters is definitely way too short for the chair swing ride. Look at the people in the seats. It’s definitely at least 10 meters.

Assuming 10 meters and 100 km/h, that gives about 7.9 g. That’s in the range of what fighter pilots might experience and well beyond where most people black out, so that’s still definitely too high.

Looking it up online, this is a pretty classic physics problem and the numbers you might see around it are closer to a radius of 12 meters and a speed of 13 to 17 m/s. Taking that as 15 m/s (54 km/h), that works out to about 1.9 g, which I can subjectively say feels much closer to the real value if you ever ride on one of these.

So, the second one is about 1.9 g

Of note, it also straight up doesn’t work on Tom Bombadil. He is immune to its temptation, and it doesn’t make him invisible.

Ah, that makes a lot of sense. That’s what I get for lazily reading the headline, lol

So given the absurd cost of missiles and military equipment in general, that can’t be more than what, a few missiles?

Not to mention: that’s punishing people who are specifically, deliberately TRYING to become parents. They’re probably among the LEAST likely to get abortions.

There isn’t any logic. The cruelty is the point.

Not all trains. I’ve yet to see a subway with one

Evolution doesn’t really care about quality of life, so long as an organism still reproduces. If every organism in a species is in horrendous, absolutely unconscionable pain and suffering for their entire existence but always manages to successfully pass on their genes, then the species can absolutely be deemed “successful”. In a way, we have a symbiotic relationship with e.g. cows: even if we cause them mass suffering as individuals, as a species our relationship is mutually beneficial and that’s all evolution really cares about at the end of the day.

There are billions of cows, chickens, etc. in the world. Purely by numbers, those species are incredibly successful. Yet, If not for humans finding them tasty and easy to manage, we would not have bred them to this degree and they wouldn’t have reached this degree of success. Somehow, against all odds, being tasty/something we want to eat has somehow become an incredibly valuable and successful adaptation.

Evolution is absolutely wild, and this really drives home the fact that evolution isn’t about the individual’s likelihood of survival, but their likelihood of reproduction.

FINALLY

Maybe they’re double-sided PDFs? /s

As well as the “U” in USB, interpreted rather generally

But, like, to where would they be deported? That typically implies sending them back to their place of origin, but in this case they’re almost always from the US. Perhaps exile would be a better term to use.

My proposal: exile them to Texas (let’s call it a “Texile”), and then let Texas have that independence they seem to so strongly desire.

It wouldn’t necessarily collapse (it wasn’t exactly suffering before FOSS stuff “hit the shelves”, so to speak) but the gatekeeping that comes with it would certainly cause a tremendous amount of stagnation
