oh I don’t consider them obnoxious. I’m from Python-land, they’ve been saving our asses with good tooling lol. the quality of output from the rust ecosystem speaks for itself

I love these guys so much. I see them all over the place near my home in The lower Hudson Valley. They are extremely skittish about humans and really sneaky!

Stop it

Journalists do that to indicate that a term is quoted from a source’s word choice; it’s not for emphasis.

It’s a Rachel and Tobias situation!

Ha, good question, it was not easy. I’ve just been picking over at other content in the true crime genre trying to chase that dragon - I tried a couple of other podcasts that were recommended (Beyond All Repair and Death On The Ice), but what really ended up grabbing me next was “Who TF Did I Marry,” which is a woman’s 7-hour recounting on TikTok of her experience being married to a pathological liar, and how it feels as it slowly dawns on her. She’s an amazing storyteller, strongly recommended

Bone Valley, eight-episode, superb quality true crime podcast by Pulitzer prize winner Gilbert King.

I want to understand this comment!

I usually refer to im as “vi” just to make people think I’m old school and cool save time typing that last character.

But Obsidian??

I’m curious what’s the financial outcome here for the customers? I don’t remember what Humane’s price model for these pins was, and none of these articles are discussing it. For example… Eh I’ll just look it up.

Oh my god it was $500-$700 up front plus a $25 monthly fee. That’s just horrible; will the customers be getting refunds? [Looks it up] Nope.

Thank you!

That’s interesting. What kind of massage are you talking about here?

To be quite honest I never allowed my Kindle or my Kobo to go online and the experience is not that different. The build quality on the Kindle is a bit better superior and I might well go back. Calibre is the real hero of the story IMO.

I just got a Kobo color (don’t recommend the color feature; no book is ever going to use it except the red-letter Bible and House of Leaves) and gifted the old Kindle to a friend. I e-reader is an awesome gift actually because for a lot of people it’s something they would never evenly in years take a chance on, but that they would love it if they tried.

I really wish journalists would write, for example, “they say that they want to return it to the mission” rather than “they want to”. They do this with Trump all the time. (“he believes tariffs are a powerful tool” - the fuck he does)

“Blades in the Dark but make it Archer”? Yes please my god

People are trying to post the answer and it’s getting censored lol. The term is “core’s bath,” but replace the “c” with “wh”.

This is outrageous; it’s unfair

The context that you’re missing here is that puberty, especially the testosterone-fueled one, is consequential whereas delaying puberty is not. Also, your working concept of “what percentage of people are going to sign up for hormone replacement or gender-affirming surgery and then regret it later” is just not in line with reality. Regret does happen, of course, but it is rare.

“issue” in this context means “offspring,” by the way. “Burthen” is an archaic version of “burden”.
