https://x.com/mtgreenee/status/1842039774359462324 Marjorie Taylor Green came out saying that Democrats are causing Hurricane Milton, and when pressed, she said that yes, they are indeed controlling the weather. Now, most of us know that MTG is loopy, but the obscene part is how many people apparently believe her nutty statements. At this point they have become 100% untethered from reality.

I never saw Beanie and Cecil, but I loved Rocky and Bullwinkle.

The only CRT that I still keep around is for connecting my old pre-HDMI video games and VHS to.

Nah, it should be the F-22 Raptor.

I keep misreading it as Tax avoidance thread.

Oh, since Leonard Nimoy was brought up on the Listening thread, I thought I would mention that Nimoy provides all of the narration for Civilization IV.

5.4 megahertz? I thought it was 5.4 gigahertz? That would make for a wavelength of about 5 centimeters.

While a WiFi router can provide the microwave signal for a separate camera to form an image, routers do not possess the angular resolution to form images on their own—it can only determine the general direction of an object. While this might be enough to get general location and numbers of users/devices (thus fulfilling the literal meaning of RAdio Detection And Ranging, showing devices as blips), it can not form a picture of people’s body shape and poses.

In that case a cheaper motor vehicle could be made up as a decoy tank.

Like the sinking of Atlantis?

Given how dark the hair appears on the part of her head where it is close-cropped, it looks as though she has darker roots, which would imply either that she bleaches her hair, or else magical/burnout-related hair color alteration.

And that is why the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors believed in having your running shoes on BEFORE you find out that you need to run.

One of the most common sources of trauma is witnessing someone else being brutalized and being unable to help them, so I would say that such people were traumatized specifically because they did experience empathy.

If you look at the old Pantheons, it appears that, 3000+ years ago, some Immortals posed as gods, literally “playing god” with mortals. When that went bad (a possible cause of the Bronze Age Collapse), the Immortals swore that they would never repeat the mistake of trying to rule over mortals.
