I'd have a Kill Bill double bill.

"St. George, do you... do you mean you killed a lizard?"
"No! It was a dragon. It had wings, I swear!"

Australia?! I wonder if they'll find her wearing a snakeskin bandana, shell shocked from the things she's seen. The movie adaptation would be called Outback Dog.

Look at all these politicians being prosecuted for their crimes, what a travesty of justice!

If you're going to include single payer, it might be better to look at all preventable deaths. Adding the number 0 doesn't do much and to get there you really have to twist it to pretend some coverage gets rid of all triage and we won't counter under coverage towards that number. That's pretty messy

Interesting that people jump to this conclusion instead of considering that culture and birthplace are not encoded in DNA.

One way to avoid it is to listen to DJs who actually record themselves playing the music and check for a track list in the description. But yeah, Youtube is getting slogged up pretty quickly. Heartbreaking when you think of indies who are great but buried by junk.

Of course, famously there wasn't any technological development during the medieval period. The people knew, at the time, that the vibes would be off and it would create a real headache for their descendants.

Those of us who have studied history are doomed to watch other people repeat it.

Fine, but it's going to eat into your 2-digit allowance.

4 numbers, 2 digits each max, but not for all 4 of them. And you can have 4 digits, but then your number of numbers goes down to 1.
(For historical reasons a turn-based RPG is allowed to have strings of numbers as part of the hit animation but not to convey information.)

At least you could image most media companies using AI to recreate something resembling "content". But specifically the one about chili peppers??? What, are we suppose to watch the computer going nuts trying to taste chilis?

I wouldn't hate this comment. Giving away all your wealth can be aspirational. And that sentiment causes some billionaires to do that. But it does imply that these are easy problems to solve. And the billionaires that do try tend to overestimate their abilities, misallocate cash and get in the way.

There was a lawyer called Meijers who rewrote the Dutch civil law code and explicitly banned sale-leasebacks because they're legally suspect. But eventually the law was overturned by the supreme court who were like nah, everyone else in the worlds does them and you've gotta do business somehow.

Hanabi (fireworks) is pretty great. It means fire flower.

Probably the best argument is that you need some degree of arbitrary decision-making in a system to hit on positive unforeseen outcomes.

Trying to walk away from Omelas corp, but the notice period in my contract stops me.
