Some people don’t like when it’s too quiet. For some it’s uneasy, for some it makes it too hard to stop your mind from wandering. That can make it hard to sleep or hard to focus on a task. White noise is noise that makes it not quiet, but isn’t so loud or too full of meaning to be a distraction on its own. Most people use something like ocean waves, running water, rain, wind noises, the warp core noise from Star Trek, etc.

Who says cows can’t lay eggs?

And don’t say “literally everyone”, that’s a cop out answer

In fairness, RTD is well known to blatantly lie about what will happen in the future of the show.

There are some who remain there, but only interact with their own “bubble” of people that they’ve cultivated over the years. So whatever sensible people are there wouldn’t be responding to hashtags and getting involved in this sort of conversation.

If you really hate someone who lives in one of those six houses, this lot affords you many opportunities for mischief.

I can’t imagine any other reason for this to exist.

With the amount of focus it got in The Giggle, the HQ is absolutely playing a big part in the spinoff. They made a whole robot character who appears to be anchored into the HQ, and since the robot served no purpose whatsoever in the plot of The Giggle itself, the only reason to make the robot is because it will be a regular part of the spinoff. Therefore, the spinoff is going to be centered on the HQ we saw.

This felt like a spiritual successor to Midnight, and I mean that in the highest form of compliment. Every scene was just creamed with emotion, literally more feelings in a ten minute span than in the cumulative total of the Chibnall years. This is possibly my favorite episode since Heaven Sent, absolutely phenomenal.

My guess is that it will be a “nature highway” so migratory species can cross over the road

And get what money? The money’s spent, it’s gone, and the directors not getting another big payday like this ever again. They can spend $10k on lawyers to get the $216 in his checking account.

Yep, from way way back. BSD -> NextStepOS -> OS X -> iOS

In what universe does Linux run on 99% of mobile devices? Android is nowhere near 99% market share, and iPhones are not and never have been based on Linux.

Local elections are the time. That’s it, that’s the answer. Third parties have to build up heavy momentum in smaller elections and only then build up to bigger ones, and eventually the big chair.

Doing very little at the local level and making a big splash once every four years is not a strategy for public policy or even for public debate, it’s solely a strategy for fundraising.

Hiring someone that OpenAI chose to fire is pretty clearly fair play, but how does this declaration not directly run afoul of anti-poaching laws?

So a plumbing business which books appointments via their nothing-customized Squarespace page, that’s a tech company? And you would think it appropriate if a news story about that plumber causing a water main break being posted to a technology news feed?

Having a website does not make a company a tech company and you are objectively wrong if you think it does.

Is the implication that any business you access via a web browser or app is a tech company? Boy do I have news for you about literally every business

He’s not even the main character, he’s a sidekick and not even the most prominent of the sidekicks really. (Despite the fact that he appears first in many character lists for the movie, the protagonist is Searcher)

The sentence in the article, even if linking to an older article, should still make sense as a sentence on its own. Without the word “supposed” as the older article has, it just doesn’t.

If we are guessing that each roommate has and mostly drank their beverage of choice, then while the overall quantity isn’t too bad, the guy who likes Blue Moon may need to rethink his habits.

And if I could get a ride in this service today that might be relevant
