Came for the headline, stayed for the picture, and really enjoyed the article. Well done The Onion.

Starting ones self on fire is a suicide attempt, regardless of political motive. This isn’t the same as sky diving or even trying to see the Titanic in a carbon fiber pod, this is pure and simple, self immolation to death that failed, so far.

They were suicidal, and now they’re trapped.

To be clear, she allegedly was told to support him, went to his first trial, and has not been in contact with him or spoken on his behalf since. It’s very possible the veil was lifted, so to speak, at that trial.

I grew up in rural Iowa. We didn’t have a fancy side of town.

Neither tall basketball players or high jumpers actively have someone actively trying to stab them in their larger mass sections. It would be better to compare with baseball where the strike zone can change depending on height. There are some good pictures of Jose Altuve standing next to Aaron judge in the MLB. Basically, tall people have a larger attack vector, and that doesn’t apply in the two sports you mentioned, where more height definitely carries significantly more advantages than disadvantages.

It is easily the most important feature on my phone. The call screening and spam blocking is unparalleled. I don’t think I have had anything blocked that shouldn’t be, and it maybe messes up 5 or less times a year.

A majority is greater than 50%. A vast majority would mean significantly more than 50%.

When your a 90 year old turd with a steady diet of trash, not taking blood thinners for a day might be your last day.

We have differing definitions of what “vast majority” means. Dumb AF article.

I would but wouldn’t. Not a good look, but I’d still chuckle.

This is a tough area for me. I think someone should be able to make a living researching and creating drugs. If that’s all a company does they have to make money somehow. Admittedly, I have not put much thought past that, so there may be a simple solution. Research grants and other funding can pay salaries for a time, but that’s a static income. Idk, I’m interested in how this would work without some amount of markup.

Unless profits means everything past salaries and stuff, then I do mostly agree. However I think there has to be allowance for cash on hand and further investment in infrastructure and all those other fun things needed to run and grow a business.

This is the reason I hate when people use the “recoup” argument. If anyone takes any free money to do research, then that isn’t an expense to that company. If I start my own thing, and use my own money to cure cancer, then I get to set the price to recoup my own losses. If the citizens paid for it through taxes or donations, then it should be cost + % profit. 30% is very fair.

Which means you’ve made a choice, and it’s pro fascism.

And rapist

Why do you believe they won’t do combat missions this year? I have no perspective on this so truly a genuine question. I know there has been training for a bit now, so I figured that would make pilots combat ready and I assumed they’re already have been planning for the arrival to be ready.

I’m saying that picking android to flash a custom ROM is still picking a side. It’s a valid answer to the original question. I was just being cheeky.

Who’s phone did you buy and what stock OS was on it?

You chose.

Obviously the core concept.

The most popular stable Linux distros are no more difficult to understand than Windows to the average and below average user. If your dad still doesn’t understand XP, then he never will. Also, it means he is not a power user and can be shown where the internet button is on any OS.
