Almost makes me wonder if this is a mechanical turk situation.

I’ve worked in two U.S. buildings with Both ground and first floors. The buildings were built into a hill so street level entered the first floor, but parking entered the ground floor. Very easy to get confused until you figure it out.
It is also the origin of the anime “wow” sound effect. https://soundeffects.fandom.com/wiki/Anime_Wow_Sound
Changes could have so many repercussions even well meaning actions could make things worse. The safer bet would be to collect lost books and art.
That said, stopping the Lincoln assassination is tempting. I’d hope to change reconstruction to better wipe out the confederacy, prevent lost cause doctrine, and better integrate former slaves into full citizenship and society.
VR - It has been through a few hype cycles, but never quite makes it. Cost, weight, battery life (or tethers), lack of highly desirable games, required floor space, nausea (in some people), etc.
Starlink - when announced it sounded like the solution to ISP monopolies and rural broadband access. But the roll out was so slow that other solutions have caught up. For people with no option other than satellite internet, it is still great (if they can get it) but for a lot of people, better options now exist.
Robber to victim: ok, let’s compromise. Give me half your money and I’ll only stab you a little.
The “media” has spent the last week setting the bar so low that when Trump comes out hopped up on stimulants, nothing in the debate itself will matter, and he will get a huge boost from simply not appearing as old as Biden did.
I’m not optimistic about the debate. Any publicity tends to work in Trump’s favor as his fans and the complicit news media will gloss over any mistakes while magnifying even the slightest gaff by Harris.
Trump falls asleep - media: he’s working so hard for us he is exhausted.
Harris pauses for a second before answering - media: did Harris have a mini-stroke? What is she hiding about her health?
One second ago I put a dollar on my dresser. That’s on pace to be 30 million in a year.
Hot dog buns. In my opinion, the generic, white, store brand buns make the best hot dogs.

I worry that she actually is “middle class” and the wealth disparity has moved to the point that those of us who cannot spend $150 on pet insurance or drop $750,000+ on a house or $100,000 on a truck are effectively “poor”, at least as far as the market is concerned.
My vacation days are capped, but my sick days are not. I’ll take my sick days when I retire.
Instant karma. Weighted based on intent. E.g. If CEO cuts benefits to improve his stock value, then his balls explode. If a driver accidentally cuts someone off but feels bad about it, a full mosquito hits the windshield.
Happily married, with a brand new baby, living in a large house, on a well established farm, with financial security and steady income, plus a small fortune in extremely valuable wine aging in the basement, near a friendly town with lots of festivities, where no matter how badly I screw up someone will find me and bail me out so that I can get home or see a doctor.
I’m honestly not sure if a vegan cat diet is possible or not, but random people giving unqualified advice that could easily lead a less knowledgeable person to harm an animal is a problem. What should have been done in this case is for a mod or admin to shut the discussion down with a note telling people to consult a qualified veterinarian regarding any change to their pets diet.
I’m not sure I even made it 1/10 of the way. I want to like the game but there was just nothing compelling me to continue or to pick it back up. The combat was especially disappointing. They captured the monotony of an rpg button masher without the ability to just zone out or multitask while playing. Also seems way to reliant on the moonerang.
Ugh, do I go with #2 where I have to worry about diaper failures and my seat being kicked, 8 where I risk witnessing CSAM, or 10 where the guy across the aisle is defiling the plane.
Are you sure about that? Straight courses are used for drag racing.
