It’s ridiculous, why bother writing F-asterisk-asterisk-asterisk-asterisk-asterisk-asterisk? If you want to swear, then swear. If you feel it’s a naughty word, then expand your vocabulary.

I finally gave it another go. I tried it years ago for about twenty minutes and promptly uninstalled it when all the microtransactions got up in my face. Refreshing to see a company do the right thing, but I’m sad to say that I uninstalled it again. This isn’t really Quake to me. Outlines showing where your opponents are, announcer notifying the quad has spawned, the shotgun being reduced from a death stick to a pea shooter, what’s up with that? The movement feels less like you’re running at breakneck speed and more like you’re hovering around like a friendly little ghost. Everything just felt off.

This requires a basement depositorium, one of those heavy-duty deep mid-40’s bowls with a chain that can move serious loads in a single, noisy flush.

24 was insanely good when it was a new thing and then quickly devolved into “wait, you’re torturing a teenager on a hunch and that’s okay?”. Not worth the rewatch.

Quelle surprise… It’s good business reinforcing the belief that he is, though. I recommend the book God’s Bankers by Gerald Posner. A lot of interesting insight into what works less as a religion and more as a nation state.

See the good. Yes, the church has a past (and present) fraught with problems and unforgivable acts, but if you think one person, even its supreme leader, can stop it during their lifetime, you’re overly optimistic. Do you think replacing the president will fix the US? Do you think Japan is unlovable now because of what they did in the past?

Wouldn’t advise them to do that if they rent a car in Norway. The fine is about $1100 if they’re caught, plus three points on the license.

To be honest, that’s a very expensive solution to feed what sounds like an internet addiction. I have a Pixel 8 Pro too, and it’s still in as-new condition. I’ll keep it till it breaks by itself

The shower is the one place where I can have some peace and switch off. No news, no noise, no immediate crises that need solving. Just listen to the running water, enjoy for a bit, feel a little bit more relaxed and clean afterwards. A phone would achieve the exact opposite.

Why in the world would I bring the phone in the shower?

A man got to work down under, that’s for sure.

“Footloose” by Kenny Loggins, and “Hello” by Lionel Ritchie. 1984 was a party.

An uncanny resemblance to Dave Levene.

I’ve got a loaf. He drools

Weeeellll, how much of it was a result of Obama’s style of leadership and how much of it was a reaction to a black guy in a tan suit being in office? Even Americans need to admit that the US is a hopelessly, enthusiastically racist country.

This is the way. Many of today’s problems are partly caused by people having been taught they have to take the high road and show they are better than the meanies. If you turn the other cheek, you’ll end up with two black eyes. Crush those evil bastards.

Ten of those would win you an enemy position in 1944, arguably more valuable than a house under the circumstances. Commandoes called it the “meat grinder”.

You’re obviously not British
