  1. 1 killed and 31 others — including 13-year-old boy — wounded by gunfire over weekend in Chicago - Chicago Sun-Times (suntimes.com) Rookies.
  2. But you already pay for the Comcast?
  3. How Cat Litter Could Fight Climate Change - ExtremeTech
  4. I didnt have either.
  5. Today’s the day when Boeing’s Starliner takes to the skies. Probably | Ars Technica
  6. Firestarter (2022) I guess we made it around 45 minutes when I looked over at my wife and she was already slumped over sitting up in bed. Its laughably bad and thats coming from a fan of the original movie.
  7. Prison definitely dissuades me from a life of crime. Im too pretty to go to prison...Id have to join the Italian gang...theyd probably want me to shank someone to get in...its all too messy. Im not sure, an earlier link I posted showed the majority of prisoners are there for theft related crimes. You can go back and look at it. I dont understand. Not a day goes by that my wife and I wake up, look at each other lovingly, and say F-work. But I will recognize that some people love their jobs, I just dont know any.
  8. Isnt Bachman just a pseudonym for King?
  9. Obviously not, people steal stuff because they dont have the means to procure it legitimately. Which circles us back to the need for UBI, UFE and UHC. With these programs people wont have to steal any more. That was the entire point of my posts.
  10. First Patient Dosed With Experimental Cancer-Killing Virus in New Trial (gizmodo.com)
  11. Did you try cycling through the "Setting" button options on your stove. Our dryer plays a surprisingly long "finished" tone too.
  12. I understand that prisons are a lucrative business but I dont understand your second statement. What does it mean? Theyve committed no crimes?
  13. Even though we have Unemployment (dole to you Euros) and Welfare (I dont know what you guys call this but its monthly money for poor people), MANY Americans dont qualify for this and are hanging on by a razors edge. No more than 1-2 bad months from living in the street. UBI, UHC and UFH would immediately ease this burden AND have the side benefit of drastically reducing our prison population (because people wont steal stuff now). Win / Win! But social ties such as family and friends are critical too. Some people have no friends, mate, offspring, etc. so they have no frame of reference. Id be easier to explain a rainbow to Hellen Keller.
  14. US Air Force successfully tests its ARRW hypersonic missile (interestingengineering.com)
  15. Man Im a sucker for kittens. Hilariously, when I played that video both of my cats came to see whats up.
  16. That made me think of something...they say that cats dont meow to each other, only to humans. And I think its also said that the cat is meowing because it has learned that mimicking a crying child will get our attention. Ok fine, I guess I can buy that. But what I dont get is...MY cats have never in their lives seen or heard a crying child but they meow to me all the time whenever they want attention or food. So how do my cats know how to do this? Is it a genetic memory or is everything I said above just urban legend?
  17. Its a known FACT that most prisoners are just poor schmucks that got dealt a bad hand in life and had no choice but to turn to a life of crime. Working is hard, F-that! If we simply provided everyone free money, shelter, medicine and education then the prisons would be virtually empty in a generation. The solution is so easy, just remove all of the things in life that requires effort and we will sail into nirvana on gossamer wings.
  18. Will We Ever Be Able to Teleport? | Latest Science News and Articles | Discovery
  19. Facial recognition is making a comeback in US cities. Here's what we know (interestingengineering.com) Excellent.
  20. See! If we had UBI, UHC and UFH people wouldnt be forced to steal to survive. What are the most common crimes in the United States? - Criminal Justice Degree Hub
  21. Yesterday I removed the old and installed a new deadbolt and handle for my front door. My wife felt like changing the color, and then I said "but we dont even use the front door", and then I did it anyway.
