A lot of people who are staying at those hotels and bothering with the continental breakfast are there for work, not vacation.

For the next election maybe. It's too late for this one.

I watched that movie on an airplane last week, and it was fine to me. What was the internet's problem with it?

I have a lot of questions for whoever set that up in the first place, first and foremost of which is: why in the everlasting fuck was that computer ever attached to the internet? At most it should be allowed internal network access only.

The best part about winter, is that if you are still cold, you can always light something on fire.

kids in FPS games razz me for speaking too formally.

Don't worry about that one. It's one of the few cases where the children are in fact wrong.

So we're just going to pretend that the other 90% of the gym doesn't exist?

Which conversions? Most metric conversions are drastically simpler than their imperial counterparts.

Add in the $12 billion, and everyone now gets $140. Still not going to help them.

Go after the banks for some actual shitty things they do. A money lender telling people to spend responsibly is the opposite of the things we should be going after them for.

So across all consumers and small businesses, Chase has 86 million customers. If the CEO distributed all his pay, everyone gets $0.14. That's not going to solve anyone being poor, and not going to help you if you have shitty spending habits.

For all the shitty things banks do, knocking them for actually advocating someone good for once seems counter-productive.

Exactly. More specifically, I'm not afraid of how people vote, I'm afraid of people choosing not to.

Wait, is that a random number, or the actual scale of the power draw we're talking about?

'Cause that's fuck-all when we're talking about industrial level power draw.

Well now this really makes for a trio of facts that paint a horrifying picture:

• Private, for profit prisons exist
• Prison slave labour is legal
• Homelessness can now be made illegal

Guess I should buy some stocks in companies that use prison labour.

Checks out, what with the current state of the Christian-right in the US.

Not important enough to me at this point to spend the time changing over. Windows 10 does what I need it to and still gets security updates. When one of those two factors changed, then it will be worth my time to change over.

Microsoft has made the choice very easy for me. I still have an i7-7700k that works just fine. But that's "too old", so when Windows 10 hits end of life, I'll be switching over to Linux.

How hard's the test? Maybe she's done.

the ads are minimally intrusive — that is, highly relevant and engaging — they should not detract from the overall user experience

In what universe do ads, no matter how "relevant and engaging", ever not detract from the overall experience?

Lol, as if their Wal Mart rifles are going to help them against reaper drones.

Close. The Thousand Islands are in the St Lawrence River.
