Corruption goes both ways (FIFA gets some, country decisionmakers get some). Also, maybe it would not be difficult to get major football nationa to support a new org, but to get them to support the same new org? Probably very difficult.

How can you smile but not smile at the same time?

yt-dl was “shut down” at one point. That led to vastly more interest and the birth of yt-dlp. I think they learned their lesson.

I’m not sure all that cash was just kept in the pockets of the perpetrators. I would be surprised if even half of the stolen amount was trivially recovered.

Being hooked up to an IV drip in the middle of a forest is surely something the article would have mentioned?

Are you also a “guns don’t kill people, people kill people” kinda person?

It works if you take it for its function: to signal the body that night is starting in 1-2 hours, and take it in a small dose (1-2mg). It’s not a sedative, like many seem to assume. It’s best to take it when you start your night routine.

Handful of cases only in the US. Globally there were around 900 cases to date (starting 2003).

The problem is that idiots drinking H5N1 milk might bring about human-to-human transmission of it which will be a dire situation. To date, around 50% of the 200-something human cases resulted in death. For comparison, the worst mortality rates of covid were around 20-25% in the very beginning.

Is your argument for bombing being the right decision the same (that it resulted in less bloodshed overall)? If so, how can you estimate the body count of the alternative (a prolonged conventional war, I assume)?

I went from a company that used github to one that uses gitlab. I thought it was going to be great and was excited for using a new thing. But it’s really clunky in comparison.

Is it possible for someone to not be actively anti-something, or the lack if being so will qualify them as pro-something?

She’s not a “children’s author”, she hired a ghost writer. To write a book about children dealing with grief.

That car fire was after stanley cups were already huge

I just ran into that the other day. I solved it by installing noscript, setting a permissive default (I don’t want to make my life harder) and blocking scripts on CNN. It works well.

Recently I started to use reader mode a lot, it tends to work in many cases for this purpose.

Everywhere in Europe. It’s just a meme on tiktok by americans that they are German windows

What fatigue? People only kinda reasonably masked up in 2020 and 2021. Stupid public messaging like the “you do you” campaign in New York (of all places) have done huge damage to masking. Also WHO saying that masks don’t work…

I’m not dragging down his day. I’ll make a mental note like, wow his form is terrible and yet he poses for the camera lol (because of course he records it). I don’t know why you consider this hate.

I might quitely make fun of the form of muscular gym bro who is displaying a smug attitude and clearly doesn’t know what he’s doing, despite going there for the last five years. But never a fat person, never a beginner taking their first steps.
