- thelibrarianConsidering the James Van Der Beek of Dawson's Creek fame is having to hold a fundraising auction of his memorabilia to fund his cancer treatment, cancer is expensive in the US.
- Going by the second graph, since about 2.5 billion years ago.
- Thanks for that, it works well, and I like the font choice! Though personally I found the font-weight a bit light and changed it to 400.
- Litestream gives you point in time recovery - you can restore to any snapshot time, not just have a current replica.
- I see someone else here also listens to Ken and Robin Talk About Stuff...
- While the orientation is interesting, the coloring is very poor. With no key, it would seem that the colors are used to differentiate countries, but they have too many adjacent countries colored the same default beige. This makes Canada, Greenland and Iceland all appear to be the same country, likewise with Australia, New Zealand, and Papua New Guinea. Also Mexico and most of the Caribbean (except Haiti).
- Argentina has tried to prove this both by legal means and by force, and has conclusively failed at both, so I think it's well past time to give up.
- > The president?
The incumbent has certainly found many creative ways to make it extremely profitable for himself.
- Basically his whole "return of magic" premise seems to be rooted in his listening to "The Telepathy Tapes" and it confirming/supporting some of his latent beliefs. But the Telepathy Tapes is utter nonsense and self delusion based on wishful thinking and the "Autism Parent" movement.

- Don't bother with this one - the latest post (The Return of Magic) is promoting a load of unscientific woo (The Telepathy Tapes). The author seems to seriously mean the title of the post literally.
- I guess if you prefer emoji over Nerd Font icons?
- My house rule to fix Settlers of Catan is to play other, better games.
- Splendour Duel and 7 Wonders Duel are actually better than their originals.
Patchwork is a great older game for 2.
- Bill Maher is way too confident(ly incorrect).
- Non-standards? They all implement the WebAuthN standard.
- I think you may just be used to Python still relying on functions for string processing, where Ruby has methods on the String class for manipulating strings.
It seems to me that Python still has these holdovers from when it was not fully object-oriented, where a lot of string and data structure manipulation is done with language-level functions rather than methods on the objects, which can be quite confusing.
- No, blocks are lambdas.
- Not just high heels, but also many boots have sharp protrusions (e.g. lace hooks on some hiking boots and work boots, metal decorations on goth and cowboy boots)
- Many shoes have hard, sharp parts that could damage the slide, even to the point of complete deflation. There is no time to assess whose shoes would be safe and whose not, so the blanket rule is "no shoes".
