Times she had to repeat herself = hours spent as a pig.

Imagine not being able to fit through tiny openings. The hydrostatic skeleton gang is laughing at all you rigid losers.

If there’s a conflict and I get to choose whether or not the side I’m on has killbots, I’ll definitely choose killbots. Especially if the enemy has them.

I applied and they never responded. I failed the Turing test?

Be grateful it isn’t Cats.

For anyone wondering what he means.

I sometimes buy games just because I watch videos of other people playing them, in order to support the developers.

_{Yes, that will be believable…}

I can’t think of any. It’s hard to be a better sequel than the greatest action movie of all time is.

If I had to pick, I would say The Empire Strikes Back.

That would be a very frightening snake.

Well technically you can neglect anything you want.

What’s wrong with the idea?

Those mortgages have an interest rate of less than 3%, but now the returns on even low-risk investments are higher than that, so the borrower is better off investing the money, using some of the profit from that to pay mortgage interest, and keeping the rest.

I know a few people who are definitely not in a hurry to pay off low-interest mortgages from 2020 and 2021, but I suppose that they’re already in a very different financial position from the people who might consider going into debt for a watch.

TikTok also was and still is acting like the law is in force - the law does not require it to shut off. They aren’t taking any legal risk.

Note that the law does not prohibit TikTok from operating. It prohibits companies like Google and Apple from distributing it, and according to this article, they are in fact not distributing it.

Even as TikTok was flickering back on, it remained unavailable for download in Apple and Google’s app stores.

TikTok shut off voluntarily and that appears to have been an excellent PR move, but we won’t know for certain until Trump does or doesn’t do something about it in the next few days.

It’s an own-goal for Biden - an unpopular law that starts being enforced the day before Trump gets to stop enforcing it.

Yes, this wasn’t an admission because it’s a well-known fact that is not inconsistent with Nintendo’s earlier actions. The headline is deceptive and people don’t read the article. The article itself contains no new information and it is only worth reading for someone who has been deceived by the headline and needs to be set straight by the same people who wrote the deceptive headline. It’s click bait that shouldn’t exist.

Neo-Nazi madness

Wow, that is savage. Doubly so because it’s coming from a man who chooses his words carefully. Lemley is doing the exact opposite of the obsequious grovelling that Zuckerberg and others are performing for Trump.

I think that putting in the hours to be very good at PoE2 is more embarrassing than being an amateur who only played a little bit. I say that as someone who looks forward to playing a lot.

The story about selling to Musk is coming from Bloomberg. Meanwhile the “pure fiction” quote comes from TikTok’s reply to Variety’s request for comments. Variety is unlikely to have access to anyone at TikTok senior enough to know the truth and willing to talk about it.

The purchase of valuable assets by someone in the president’s inner circle after the government forces their owner to sell them is the sort of thing that usually involves Russian oligarchs. It would be a shameful act by the US government.
