  • The thing I find funniest about that is that milk of magnesia is rather new to the English language (1880 according to the Oxford English dictionary). Meanwhile terms like almond milk that are "too confusing" have been in the English language since Middle English.

    Fucking lobbyists...

  • Grateful Dead, especially live albums.

  • You are thinking only of the modern G rating. Go back in time a bit to find G rated movies like:

    • 2001: A Space Odyssey
    • Planet of the Apes
    • The Secret of NIMH
    • many John Wayne movies including True Grit

    Just like society's thoughts on what is generally acceptable, the mpaa rating system has changed quite a lot over the years.

  • "Everything excellent is as difficult as it is rare."

    Baruch Spinoza, Ethics (1677)

  • I distinctly remember enjoying Encarta 95 back in the day. Otherwise, no.

  • They might be referring to the Warner Brothers disc rot issue announced earlier this year (affecting some mid 2000s dvds). Ideally, things are made well and last a long time when stored properly.

  • Very cool. It reminds me of Esao Andrews' style.

  • It's even worse if they're using "criminal record" the same way the FBI has historically (arrested but not necessarily convicted on a felony charge).

    I don't have up to date numbers, but c.2016 the FBI considered ~29% of Americans to have a criminal record.

  • He doesn't even need to describe quality. Just say that he appreciated all the attention that Trump gave to the balls.

  • A grand jury is a sort of sanity check on a charge, and does not count towards the trial. It is basically "with these facts (provided only by the prosecution), is there enough probable cause to move a case to trial?". Double jeopardy in the 5th amendment has specific protections from going to trial multiple times or from getting multiple punishments for a crime.

  • The thousand injuries of Fascists I had borne as I best could, but when he ventured upon insult I vowed revenge.

  • It is a ton of fun! A word of warning though: there are funky game mechanics stemming from its origin as a board game from the 80s.

  • I don't hate sales as a concept. I just dislike the sociopaths who tend to work there.

  • Illinois requires two party consent for recording in-person conversations at least.

  • Most app devs fuck it up (especially the lazy bastards that just throw everything in /opt and call it a day). I like being the dev who won't let my code ship until everything fits nicely into FHS 3.0.

    There's dozens of us.

  • M'sex-it

  • Hell, R was being used in colleges in 2000. Unfortunately, whether it was SPSS for the soft sciences or forcing stats work in Matlab for the engineers, professors always seemed bad at promoting the right tool for the job.

  • There's no place like home
