From the article it sounds like in an interview they accused the governor of embezzlement, which is an actual crime. I'm not a lawyer or anything close to it, but my understanding is that the (now former) governor could have good grounds to sue for defamation, since he was not convicted of defamation at that time. It's like why newsrooms can't call someone a murderer or rapist until they're convicted.

Congratulations, you've killed all political participation.

The Forest is a good multiplayer survival crafting game, with a pretty cool story. The sequel is also already out I think.

I live in DFW right now. I'll admit i don't commute through downtown proper daily, but even when i do go through downtown after work it's bad, but not nearly as bad as plenty of other places in thr US.

15-45 minutes... I'm not exactly knowledgeable about pizza delivery logistics, so forgive me if I'm wrong about specifics. There was a decade or so where every chain promised delivery in 30 minutes or the pizza was free, but that's no longer a guarantee these days.

Pizza delivery has electronically heated insulated containers for the drivers to keep the pizza in during the drive. Generally I think they group up orders so one delivery driver will hit up maybe 10-20 deliveries in that one run. It's normally not driving 20 miles just to deliver one pizza.

Our cities aren't densely built up, except for New York. The actual urban area of most cities generally has far fewer people than the suburban metroplex surrounding it. 6.5km is literally larger than all of downtown Dallas, depending on how you define downtown.

Even our cities are designed for car travel, so unless it's rush hour you're still faster by car. Unless there's a concert or other event happening, it doesn't take nearly 20 minutes to traverse downtown Dallas in a car.

Are you in the US? I've literally never seen a delivery driver on a bike, except for that action movie about bike couriers in NYC.

The biggest use of AI in my editing flow is masking. I can spend half an hour selecting all the edges of a person as well as I can, or I can click the button to select people. Either way I do the rest of my edits as normal.

I'll say that if the really talented people are signing on to this, that could be noticeable. I know Amazon tends to just churn through devs every year, but actually good software engineers are surprisingly hard to find.

Zelle is free. It sucks, but it's there.

The US is a representative democracy, not a direct democracy. You elect representatives to represent your interests. Or these days, you elect representatives to not represent the other people you don't like.

I'm not exactly a deregulation fan, but this race to the bottom also democratized access to air travel. When the prices were fixed, they weren't exactly fixed at anything near the cheap prices we have now (when adjusted for inflation).

They didn't misspell "stream deck"

I've had some success using microplates to do 2.5lbs increments instead of 5lbs increments to progress some stuff that plateaued for me, like dumbbell OHP.

High squats, low squats, front squats (probably only worth doing with a safety squat bar), deficit deadlift, sumo deadlift, incline/decline press, etc, off the top of my head.

Also, don't be afraid to drop some of the main lifts for 3-6 months to let them fully refresh. No one says you need to do OHP to build shoulders, and sometimes taking some time off sets you up to OHP better than ever 6+ months from now.

Try changing things up. I watch Renaissance Periodization on YouTube for a lot of workout science, and doing the same exercise for a really long time can let it get stale, as your body just gets too used to it. Try more variations on the movements, or different isolation exercises. Whatever you do, try it for at least 3-6 months.

Why 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 instead of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5?

I enjoyed how everyone in the comment thread already knew. Technology Connections is a real treasure.

It doesn't improve your credit. Source: my memory of various articles saying that, and my own 800+ credit score and having never carried a balance in my life.
