I heard the announcer voice as soon as I saw the image. Waverace!




New chess mode unlocked - on turn 15 the board is flipped. You can win by checkmate before turn 15, but after that you have to switch sides. That would put some real strategy into the game.

Anyone know a way to make this happen?


So in the spring I got a letter from a student telling me how much they appreciate me as a teacher. At the time I was going through some s***. Still am frankly. So it meant a lot to me.That was such a nice letter.

I read it again the next day and realized it was too perfect. Some of the phrasing just didn’t make sense for a high school student. Some of the punctuation.

I have no doubt the student was sincere in their appreciation for me, But once I realized what they had done It cheapened those happy feelings. Blah.


Current tech is 200 to 250 so a substantial reduction in battery weight, 50% or 60%


Growing pains. States that work with the IRS will be able to (relatively) easily setup a way to receive the information from the IRS in a way that makes the states job easier too. This is a win for everyone except the tax preparing industry.






Not random, the most used stuff It means this man is either very productive, or else he is constantly having to be told to do his job.





Or include a picture of the actual material instead of a stock photo of a glass brick stairwell…





Wow. The state of Israel is really piling on the reasons to hate it these days.



Seems like a balanced but complicated approach. Hope they can pull it off.

Shit is about to get really weird this decade…


Megacorps can get fucked. Pay your employees well or deal with the consequences.



Another angle to approach this from is the point of reference for trust. There is no good place to put foundations of trust past elementary school. Kids are told by parents to be wary of the liberal / conservative agenda in their schools.

When I was in elementary school the feeling was I could trust adults generally, and big news stations like CNN, FOX, MSNBC. There was a sense that It may be biased, but it was not straight propaganda.

Middle and high school things started shifting. The internet became more mainstream. I knew I could check information I received against trusted adults and news sources.

These days, out the gate kids are taught that half of the adults in their lives are morons being led astray by propaganda. That most news is propaganda. They don’t have anywhere they can trust because they know the side their parents on is also heavily propaganda. There is no starting point of trust for kids these days from what I can tell.


What’s the problem? I assume your dog just eats it’s vomit like a good pepper right?


Every couple of years I kick up the original Diablo game. The game didn’t have all the features of Diablo 2, but it had an amazing creepy atmosphere with an awesome theme… and I had to pull it up. Haunting.
