I got it. Felt like I was just seconding your statement.

in any sane world.

It feels like that ship sailed some time ago.

This is a crazy good deal, and according to people on their discord, you can transfer the standard license to someone if you already have a licensed copy. You will also get the pdf copies from Paizo on their website.

FTA - “The reason this matters is that no-fault divorce legally allows marriages to end much more quickly than in previous decades. When there are relatively few legal or financial consequences connected with divorce, it’s natural for people to gravitate toward that option when their marriage hits a rough patch,” he adds. “What those people often don’t consider, however, is the harm — both present and future — inflicted on their children once a divorce is finalized.”

This dude is a moron. Newsflash mr carson, having kids trapped in a nightmare where their parents are at war with one another is way more harmful. And what the fuck is he talking about "with few financial consequences"? As someone who just finally paid off credit cards from my divorce years ago, where I never even got to touch the card, he can kiss my ass.

I wonder how many of these lawmakers will be invested in the company that swoops in and saves the American public?

[-] FigMcLargeHuge@sh.itjust.works 67 points 4 months ago

Yeah, kids, this is the public facing internet. If you dox yourself and have said comments you wouldn't say out loud to someone, it could come back to haunt you. Be careful out there.

I bet their football team doesn't have any budget issues...

I am no religious expert, but going by what I remember from church, Jesus was sent here for all of us, so wouldn't that make the Virgin Mary basically a surrogate?

Do people actually want this?

Nope. Just like those stupid hard coded buttons on my Roku remote that I have never used.

The Round Rock Library is pretty amazing, and any Texas resident can get a card free and immediately check out books and media. There's no charge to get a card either, you just have to show up in person, which you were going to do anyway if you planned on checking out books.

A major highlight in my opinion is returning the books/movies and watching them run up the conveyor belt and get sorted... Guess I am just a big kid.

I tell you what, catch your tallywacker in a zipper just once and it will break you of this. Happened to me about 4 years old, and I vividly remember my dad having to yank the zipper back down. NEVER AGAIN.

Last line of the article: "Just like choosing not to ride on airplanes isn’t really an option, for many, using social media isn’t much of a choice either."

Holy crap. We have reached that point. As someone with no social media, it just amazes me how people have let these apps become ingrained in their lives. Sad in my opinion.

Those pixel stealing whores!

So far, the Reddit contributor program is limited to users in the United States (to start, at least) who are over the age of 18 and can verify their identity via Persona and Stripe.

Guys, here's the real reason. So they can positively identify you. Evidently this is how much that knowledge is worth. They can probably then start selling your posted data to other companies that have also "verified" you via Persona and Stripe. Once those datasets start getting linked together, well I will let your imagination run with that.

Dear Austin,

The Circuit of the Americas has now been open for 10 years. I distinctly recall a number of politicians yakking on and on about how they were going to upgrade the infrastructure around the track when they were begging for money to get the facility built. Well, it's been 10 years and the people living there are still dealing with the same shitty ass roads that were there before, and the same shitty ass traffic. Only I am guessing now, that when an event is in town, they have to hunker down like it's a winter storm. What happened? Is it too much for the place to do what they said they would do, and get some better roads going in and out. And before it gets said, I mean roads that us plebs have to take, not the toll road. It's complete bullshit that it has been a decade and I am still having to deal with the same horrific traffic situation to get to the track. I truly feel sorry for people who have to live near there. Damnit Austin, we can really do better. But I guess the people who can get shit done are just helicoptered in so they don't have a clue, and they are just too busy counting money.
