There's nothing the UK likes more than messing with Russia... at least it will distract us from Brexit-style self-owns in the near future.
"drain the swamp"
Every time I think "perhaps I should give Golang another try", it's shit like this that keeps me noping out
embrace, extend, execute
What Microsoft tried to do to Java in the 2000's
Yes, but also because the rest of the books abandon the swashbuckling action and are basically science fiction political dramas.
Doesn't he have to put the whole 85m in a bond deposited with the court as a requirement to begin the appeal process?
Me too, however I vaccinated early and was mostly good about isolation when it was required, hence it's plausible that I have been lucky.
This was the 70s - it might have been asbestos
Bored weirdos, even more so
No, they realised that they had the freedom of movement. The Brexit vote was in part to punish people like you because you still had that freedom.
I don't think that is possible. An injunction granted in 2022 prevented him from liquidating assets and transferring wealth out of state. I believe the court has also appointed a special master specifically to scrutinize any transaction made by the Trump Organization, with a view to specifically preventing any suspicious transfer.
It sure sounds like leopard is eating his face
Right and if FB wanted to do that it would be well within their capabilities, wouldn't it?
When does the Threads federation begin? I've not yet seen a single message from a Threads user so I imagine this hasn't yet started.
This is my first comment in months. I've been lurking and reading.
Weird advertorial article that takes 20 paragraphs to get to the point!
Spotted today in London, England. What is this clear plastic shelf below the car's license plate?
I'm running another free comedy show at The Glitch on Lower Marsh. This show is totally free, just turn up. If you find me (just ask for Sal), a pint of the usual for anybody who tells me that they found out about the night via this post.
Is there a way to connect Matrix to MS Teams? And for bonus points, Zoom's messaging system?
I could have connected one of many affordable and excellent-quality webcams to my computer, but I think this is better. Nikon's new 24mm f1.7 lens is really good for desk-based closeup work.
"But her emails!"
Insisting on similarity is a kind of lie to make Clinton’s conduct look worse than it was, to make Trump’s look more benign than it was, or both at the same time.
More and more optimal!
Support for SDL and Linux's threading model means that Dwarf Fortress might soon be available on Linux machines.
Right-Wing Sexual Predators, Abusers, and Enablers If you want to support my work, I have an Amazon wishlist, vitamins and things not covered by insurance and a few indulgences. Or you can co…
Cajsa Lilliehook has kindly compiled a list of GOP and right-wing sex abusers. It's an astonishingly long list, especially when you consider that this is the party that argues we need to be protected from drag queens. Perhaps their rage at drag performers is merely a means of distracting from rampant abuse within their own ranks?
The financial unsustainability of traditional, car-centric American suburbs, consisting mainly of single-family units, is a critical aspect of the problem of urban sprawl. The design of these suburbs necessitates constant expansion into undeveloped land. This is because the initial infrastructure costs, such as roads, utilities, and public services, are often subsidized by development fees and future property taxes from new construction. However, as these communities age, the costs of maintaining and replacing this infrastructure can significantly exceed the revenue from property taxes, creating a financial shortfall. This is often referred to as a "growth Ponzi scheme" – new development brings in a temporary influx of revenue, which is used to pay for the cost of existing liabilities, but in the process, incurs even more long-term liabilities.
Moreover, the dispersed, low-density nature of these suburbs compounds the issue, leading to inefficient public service delivery and increased per capita costs. The reliance on private vehicles, due to large distances between residences, workplaces, and essential amenities, also places a heavy financial burden on families, particularly those in lower income brackets. Affordable housing options are limited, contributing to socio-economic segregation. Furthermore, the conversion of natural and agricultural land into residential and commercial areas can lead to losses in ecosystem services, the costs of which are often not accounted for. Thus, from both a municipal and a resident perspective, traditional American suburbs present a financially unsustainable model for urban development.

Yesterday a woman received a 28 month sentence, with over a year in custody, for using abortion pills to end her pregnancy. Humanists UK has reacted with shock and horror, and calls for immediate action to reform abortion law in England and Wales.
Carla Foster, a mother of three, will spend 14 months in custody and a further 14 months on licence, as she took abortion bills outside the legal limit using pills at home during the pandemic. Ms Foster was initially charged with child destruction which she denied and later pled guilty to an offence under a Victorian law, the 1861 Offences Against the Person Act.
