Ive been waiting for years now for Valve to release a next gen headset before getting into VR (rather than paying top dollar for a legacy platform) and the industry is running laps around itself.

I live in the residential area within the limits of a large US city.
To the nearest convenience store: 0.9 km
To the nearest chain supermarket: 2.6 km
To the bus stop: 0.3 km
To the nearest park: 0.8 km
To the nearest big supermarket: 3.1 km
To the nearest library: 2.7 km
To the nearest train station: 2.9 km
And I’d argue that these numbers are remarkably good for people in my situation as well.
I spotted a documentary that addresses the language issue at a tangential level that I put in the trailers community earlier last week…
I thought Romans typically used wax tablets. Paper was pretty rare, and I have no idea of they used quills for writing.
It is utterly atrocious that McSweenys had to assemble this list before any actual news outlet.
I choose to interpret this as even prominent Republicans are now willing to admit that trans people are hottt.

When he’s the one paying for it.
“I hadn’t met him before. I’m saying, ‘What’s it gonna be like?’ because he was also a producer of the show, big fan of the original, working on it for 10 years."
The article doesn’t mention it, but there was a big kerfuffle after Charlyne Yi (the actor who played Judy) spoke out about being abused and assaulted on set.
That’s why the character basically disappears half way through the season.
Keep an eye on that Kal-el Tuck kid though. The last time I was that delighted by a kid actor on television was Elliot Page in Regenesis.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panopticon
The panopticon is a design of institutional building with an inbuilt system of control, originated by the English philosopher and social theorist Jeremy Bentham in the 18th century. The concept is to allow all prisoners of an institution to be observed by a single corrections officer, without the inmates knowing whether or not they are being watched.
Although it is physically impossible for the single guard to observe all the inmates’ cells at once, the fact that the inmates cannot know when they are being watched motivates them to act as though they are all being watched at all times. They are effectively compelled to self-regulation. The architecture consists of a rotunda with an inspection house at its centre. From the centre, the manager or staff are able to watch the inmates. Bentham conceived the basic plan as being equally applicable to hospitals, schools, sanatoriums, and asylums. He devoted most of his efforts to developing a design for a panopticon prison, so the term now usually refers to that.

I’m going to keep pointing this out until it becomes a part of the narrative.
The strategy of prominent Republicans flipping to vote for Harris is specifically designed to help Republicans win Congress.
If Republican voters are demoralized by the prospect of Trump, a lot are going to just stay home and not vote at all. That would lead to a Democratic electoral sweep.
Cheney, George Will and other Republican ghouls’ best option to avoid this is to give permission to their voting base to toss their Presidential vote to Harris, but also get them into the polls so they can be reliable Republican voters down the ticket and try to keep the House and take the Senate.
FFS, quit giving the enemy oxygen.

I genuinely expected this to be a metaphor for foreign drug prices or agricultural rights. But nope, just angry farmers all the way down.
This sounds fascinating! But I’ve had my hopes up for so many other “in development” projects in the past. (RIP the Patrick McHale interpretation of Redwall)
Trained for years on Skyline 3-Ways.
Still unemployed here, applying for jobs that I’m well-qualified for, being rejected without an interview and watching those listing reappear on job sites on a weekly basis.

I am one of those obese people, and it seems so achingly unfair.
I am an active person. I eat similar foods and quantities as my peers, with drastically different results. I drink water, not soda or juice. I basically stopped drinking coffee, but when I did, it was always plain black. The only weight loss success I’ve had was spending a year on a keto diet, which my doctor swears was slowly killing me (salt, sulfites, etc). My doctor says I have mild hypothyroidism, but not bad enough to call for treatment.
I have been overweight my entire life, living in a world that fundamentally believes that this is entirely my fault. I don’t know how to convey the hopelessness that people like me have to live with, and the resolve that it requires to keep making healthy choices in spite of it, and never seeing beneficial results.
I don’t know how to get off this ride. All I ask is for other people to not believe I am a lazy shameless grotesque person for being forced to ride it.
