Can we start calling Amazon “AliExpress with American characteristics” now?
I can’t see how this won’t further undermine the value proposition of Prime, as yet more of their inventory is ineligible for “free 2-day shipping.”

I figured systemd is a 90s-JRPG boss with multiple phases taking over more and more of the screen.
You hold up a Slackware CD like some sort of vampires-and-faith-objects bit.
That does seem like something that would violate some rules-of-war convention.
Booby-trapping something that might be mistaken by civilians as a legitimate humanitarian aid drop risks non-combatant casualties and makes it harder for actual aid operations to operate.
Wasn’t that why he loves fast food? It’s easier to target the White House supply chain for a precision poisoning than to try to hit every McDonald’s in a 50km radius and hope to get lucky.
Check a local coin dealer/show.
Silver ounce rounds come in infinitely many designs, and there are a lot of right-wingers in those interest groups.
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen them done up with his ugly maw on. I think sometines as copper too.
If there’s such a fear of third parties cleaving off votes from the Democrats, why have they never tried to mobilize similar forces on the right?
We had the Libertarians right there, before they imploded.
My objections:
Instead of writing the code now, you end up having to review and debug it, which is more work IMO.
Too much girl, not enough cat. REFUND!
Legit multipolarization?
NATO, in particular, is highly coupled to the American/anti-Russian agenda. How much chance did Europe get to discuss the pros and cons of bankrolling a long-term conflict in Ukraine vs getting railroaded into it with the insinuations of being the next Chamberlain?
Even Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin don’t wake up every morning asking “how can I be evil today?” They may have a different agenda than the West, but it still comes from a place of caring for their country, legacy, and position. These are not wholesale foreign concepts. They can be understood and worked with. But I suspect the sort of organizations that would get the best out of them would require certain countries to acknowledge their place among equals and be willing to comptomise their sphere of influence.
My idea was a worm that just torrents random shit and dumps it on your desktop like a cat bringing you a dead bat with “I broughted you a pwesent w” energy.
As a (non-game) developer, AI isn’t even that great at reducing my burden.
The organization is enthusiastic about AI, so we set up the Gitlab Copilot plugin for our development tools.
Even as “spicy autocomplete” only about one time in 4 or so it makes a useful suggestion.
There’s so much hallucination, trying to guess the next thing I want and usually deciding on something that came out of its shiny metal ass. It actually undermines the tool’s non-AI features, which pre-index the code to reliably complete fields and function names that actually exist.
Why not just subsidize the shit out of the USPS?
I buy a lot of AliExpress stuff, craft and hobby electronics stuff, and have run into situations where a domestic vendor will have what I want, sometimes even at a competitive price, but their shipping will be $5-10- maybe discounted if I spend $50, 100, or more, while the Chinese option is $2 postage, or even “free postage if I spend $10.”
If you could mail a 100 gram padded envelope for under $1, it would cloae the gap substantially.
I suspect the American left focused on LGBTQ+ issues because it was a “safe” mission.
Increasing official tolerance there was no threat to their donors or the wealthy in general. Nobody had to pay more in taxes or submit to meaningful government regulstion to enforce “don’t explicitly fire/assault/refuse to marry someone for being gay/trans”. Arguably those policies could have ecen come out of broader expectations for “stay out of people’s personal lives” rather than making special cutouts and declaring a marginal group.
Looks impressive, accomplishes very little. Pretty much sums up the Democratic party for the last 50 years.
Them nerds will put a Raspberry Pi in anything these days.
There are some recent $1 notes where the same serial was issued twice.

With American comics, it’s not even the shattered continuity, it’s that availability is a mess because some of the franchises are so ancient and collectible.
If I want to read through One Piece from the 1997 start, my library probably has/can inter-library loan all 105 volumes, or I can go to mainstream retailers and get any I’m missing without a huge fracas.
If I want to read Batman from the 1940 start, I’d better hope some of the rarer issues come up at auction in the near future AND that I can mortgage my house to afford them.
I’m amazed they never put out a DVD-ROM collection that’s “Everything Marvel/DC did prior to, say, 1990, as PDF scans” just so mere mortals have a chance to enjoy the experience of completionism.
Chromebooks maybe?
I always figured the browser part mostly falls out of doing the Electron-for-cross-platform thing.
Source?
I’m more willing to forgive not getting Baizhu for the promise of unlimited cheap energy…
Whatever else you can say, Hillary was not channeling a lot of enthusiasm outside of a very narrow group.
It felt like there were weeks in peak campaign season where she wasn’t touring or making speeches. What even was her signature issue? (Considering how she was associated with the abortive attempts towards universal health care during Bill’s term, that would have been a sensible focus, but I don’t recall it mentioned once)
The whole campaign reeked of “play to not lose” rather than “play to win”. She assumed she was the annointed favourite, guaranteed the win, and that’s not really going to excite uncommitted voters. Bernie, at least, generated buzz.
How about Delete, since I don’t see it on the layout.
Or the Most Scroll Lock Ever.
