Gridiron. There’s also Rugby, Australian rules, and Canadian Rules Football. Most of the world plays association football.

People were voting against Dems for inflation that was largely from summer of 2022. Bear markets/recessions usually last 15 months.

If Trump keeps this stupid shit up for more than a week, the Republicans will have a bloodbath. Look no further than the elections of 1890.

“Young child in Mexico has novel influenza” was Swine Flu’s start. So I always get a little nervous reading about it.

The slightly better news is that compared to COVID, influenza sucks at spreading, so our non-pharmaceutical interventions are liable to stall it out pretty well.

The Canadian teen mutated to a human to human form, but she did not spread it forward.

It’s coming. We just keep rolling the dice.

The cocoa and swift runtimes are open source and the languages themselves are open source. The big pieces that are not are the window manager.

Two ways of no padding for your saddle: material that gives (Brooks leather, rubber, etc) or you have a rock for a butt.

“Let’s wipe out the vast amount of wealth for the majority of the country” is unlikely to play well basically ever.

“Grandma and Grandpa need to take a $300k wealth cut so that we can force them out of the neighborhood they’ve lived in for 30 years because it’s not the optimal use of that land” is going to always go over like a wet fart. You’re coming across like a technocrat here rather than a feeling human being.

Between the capacitor plague and the tin whiskers from the phaseout of lead, hardware from that era failed constantly.

You’re real close to the “capacitor of death” models there. GX270s failed like a motherfucker.

And yet: You’ll still be limited to two simultaneous calls to your REST API because the default HTTP client was built in the dumbest way possible.

I saw an ad request with an inline 1.4 MB game. Like, you could fit Mario in there.
