“But it wouldn’t hit the fan so much if we stopped using Microsoft’s half-baked products!”

It always falls on deaf ears. I can’t believe how many millions my employer throws at Microsoft every year just to complain about how broken it is.

Usually organic stuff is 2-4x more expensive around here, so my eyes tend to slip right over them.

Every place I’ve worked for seems to have them figured out ahead of time based on how little they want to give in raises.

This is a whole new level. Removing references on government websites was dumb and made me angry, but this is truly sickening.

I tried to rewatch it recently and the first season has not aged well. I don’t know how much of that was the Chuck Lorre influence, but it was tough to watch. I remember the show being incredible, so it must have been later on when they found their own voice.

Silicon Valley is another example of how to do it right.

Oh no! It was very fun and I want to play it again!

No, because the monsters would get me.

I had the same thing happen to me last year. I left late for a 15 mile ride into the city to see a silent film so I refused to get off and walk it. I was stuck in first the whole time. Once I got into the forest it was better, but by then the damage was done and I was completely obliterated by the time I got to the theater.

A heart attack is a damaging lack of blood flow to the heart. This is very often caused by your heart beating wrong (or not at all) but can have many other causes. It’s also important to note that the heart largely does not receive oxygen from the blood inside it; it has its own set of blood vessels on the outside feeding it. Therefore you can have a heart attack even though the pumping portions are completely clear.

It’s possible for the blood flow to be slowed so far by blockages that your heart starts taking damage, yet still struggles on for five days. Definitely not a common scenario, but it does highlight just how varied and uneven heart attack symptoms are. Which just makes the whole thing that much scarier in my opinion.

Definitely still common in rural areas. I was hoping it was a generational thing, but it’s been passed down to the zoomers having kids out here.

For once I actually believe him. I don’t believe they’ll make it better, but finding billions in fraud should be easy when they haven’t passed an audit in decades.

Heartburn is a type of pain usually caused by acid reflux, but can be mimicked by a heart attack.

Yeah, I love that they’re exploring themes you don’t often see on TV. The importance of regulation and transparency, how religion manipulates people, and even antinatalism.

It was absolutely beautiful, no question. The acting is incredible as always, too.

But I do not like the pacing this season. Season one was very steady and purposeful, building slowly to the climax in the last couple episodes. This season started even more frantic than the finale, and has been all over the place since. The events of this episode feel rushed. They feel like inevitable outcomes to what’s been set up, but without the escalation in-between.

Still loving this season, but I think I liked S1 more so far.

My spouse agrees, although I’m leaning more towards Kiki’s.

I see it as a CNC for paper and similar materials. I steal my spouse’s at least once per year, often for making stencils for painting projects or for making layered lightboxes.

Yeah, I kinda assumed all elections from here on out will be like Russia: you can vote for whoever you want, but it won’t count and you’re going to get a visit afterwards.

I had to look this place up. I was not aware the federal government ran a theater. Is this something the president has any legal control over or is he just doing as he pleases?
