Okay, so... Aside from the creepy terrifying robot thing, what's happening in this picture? Is that a door with a full plate glass window... in a wall between two hallways? Is the bot just standing in a large empty room staring through a door without opening it?
The point wasn't that we should go all-in on hydrogen. The point was that they've been actively suppressing alternatives to oil for the better part of a century
Yep, still working through this with one of my kids. Lying requires an intent to deceive, to mislead. You can say things that are untrue without meaning to, which is not lying
Hah! I remember the game, but I don't think that was it.
I saw it on a Discovery documentary or something in high school, as I recall. There were a few shots of the test subject playing a sports skiing console game of some sort
I remember a dream study that found if you're working on a skill within something like half an hour of going to sleep, you're markedly faster at learning the skill. I think they measured it using a skiing video game or something like that
If I remember right, the trick that makes sewing machines work came to the inventor in a dream.
The inventor was exploring the jungle or something like that in his dream, and got attacked by spear-wielding savages. The spears all had a hole near the tip. Which was what he was missing to make the sewing machine work - he'd been trying to make it work with the hole in the back, like a regular sewing needle.
I understood that to mean Jankatarch understood you to be insinuating that. That J thought you were saying Mamdani would cycle the money through charities he owns, rather than taking the money and donating the raise amount to charities (which I assume you meant?)
Yeesh, so many people grumbling about poor relationship dynamics. The whole joke is that it was all in his head - she teased him a little, and he put himself into a tailspin by losing an imaginary argument.
I've done that kind of thing a few times myself - my wife says something innocuous, and I read into it until I've gone completely off the rails. Has nothing to do with anything she's done, it's all to do with me misreading what's happening and forecasting wrong without checking anything. That's the joke.
In the interest of addressing stereotypes - I'm Midwestern, and "don't drink the water!" is still something associated with Mexico in my head. Granted, parts of the US could have the same warning apply! Has this improved over the last decade or two? I remember on a recent trip to San Diego, we had to be careful what beaches we visited because the southern beaches periodically got sewage from dumping south of the border.
I also recall stories of white people (especially obvious foreigners) being targeted for kidnappings, with the assumption that they're rich - is this rare, then? Or limited to certain parts of the country?
No, it's about them wanting other people to do good things, and trying to encourage that by example. And I think they have a point - it's hard to model a behavior when nobody is aware of it, and it's hard to normalize a behavior nobody talks about
The "door of opportunity closing rapidly" in the upper thirties suggests she's worried she won't be able to afford kids before she'd have trouble with pregnancy.
Which, yeah, adoption or fostering could address part of that - but some people also want to experience the biological part of that process, and it sucks when they don't really get that choice
Nah, if a cop charges her for that, she'd be right to contest it. Maybe it had fallen, and she tucked it in her lap to let her get safely clear of traffic before stowing it properly. Doesn't matter if it's likely or not, the burden of proof is on the accuser, and it's not met here.
Let's not let the police assume lawbreaking without clear proof, and lets especially not let them automate that accusation process!
Okay - so charge her with having an unsecured object in her vehicle.
The fine was for use of a phone while driving, when the phone was not in use. Not for having unsecured items in the vehicle. Not saying it's a good idea to drive that way - it's pretty clearly not - but that's not the actual issue here
I mean, for half a billion years, the Earth's surface was largely molten. Earth'll be fiiiine...
Seriously, we're getting as hot as it's ever been while humans were around, and the change is accelerating.
(edit - got -> hot)

I'm less angry at some individuals because they got mask fatigue after a while.
I'm still pissed that people continue to pretend it was nothing, though.
Just in case you're missing the reference

I mean, almost all of them kick various kinds of butt as normal humans!

Status bar? I see the opening in the back of the case for the for the camera, but no status bar.
