Placing a bomb and then switching to a weapon no longer applies its enchantments to the bomb damage.

Huh, never knew about that one.

hundreds of thousands in unpaid bills

Uhh… yeah. That’s basically Trumps thing. Talking up someone (or some group), contract them do some work, then shaft them when the bills come due.

Just be aware that the Gemini is rather limited in the logic department, even as chat bots go.

Had A beer. One. Within 30 to 45 minutes I was throwing up everything I had eaten since I was 12. Was sick for 3 days.

Turns out, my liver doesn’t have the enzymes to correctly process alcohol.

Wow, I’ve never heard of that before.

I’m picturing a hippy tearing a tab off a blotter and throwing it like a shuriken.

It wasn’t “Stab it VR” right?

Is it Tucker Carlson has hell hounds for pets?

Okay, hypothetically let’s imagine someone who is a Bitcoin trading god. Every peak he’s there unloading his bags, every dip and he’s buying hundreds of Bitcoins. This guy turns thousands into millions and millions into billions. Huge success story right?

But here’s the rub, where is all this money coming from? The money isn’t coming out of thin air, it’s not coming from the crypto exchanges, otherwise they’d go bankrupt, it’s not coming from the value of any goods or services produced. The answer is that all that money is coming from other people. Someone has to be buying at the peak thinking it’ll go “To the moon” and getting burned, or maybe the need to pay off some hackers cryptolocker. The same for the dip maybe someone needs real money right now and must sell despite the loss, or maybe someone is panic selling thinking the price will go lower. Our hypothetical trading god hasn’t really created any money or anything of value at all, they’ve just moved money from the losers in the Bitcoin to his own wallet.

This makes you the equivalent to one of the spokespeople from near the top of a pyramid scheme taking about how this is one of the legit pyramid schemes, because you’ve earned so much money! Ignoring of course that all of their money means that someone somewhere needed to lose that money first.

However, I suppose at the end of the day, you did take twenty four thousand dollars from crypto morons, so I suppose that’s kinda noble in a way.

Wow, that’s bad. I thought it would be more of a “confusing a sentence for a similar sounding one” type thing but from the above and the article it’s just generating semi-believable text and sticking them into the transcriptions.

Haven’t we known about this for years?

There’s also a pack containing every ship they’ve sold which you can only see/purchase if you’ve spent one thousand dollars in their ship store. I’ll spoiler the price so you can try and guess how much it is first:

Edit: I should include the source for that price since (as mentioned) you can’t even see the pack until you’ve dropped $1k

At least it’s not Star Citizen prices:

Sticking your economy in crazy seems like a bad idea China.

I’m guessing he was trying to boil water in a aluminium pan and forgot about it? I’m also guessing said roommate must have left, because a burning non-stick coating would be rather noticeable.

I mean, I did something kinda like that as a kid, I forgot a aluminium bottomed steel pan once and managed to melt the base (thankfully with no non-stick coating fumes).

I dunno, he could have sacrificed his decency and integrity for power over the intervening eight years.

I recently watched a Rebecca Watson video where she rips into the “blue zone” concept.

I guess even the cheapest Brazilian beef they can find isn’t producing the profits they want now.

I would not take this bet.

Ugh…

A “toxin” is a poisonous substance produced by a living organism. While all toxins are toxic to something, not all things that are toxic are toxins. As an example caffeine would meet the definition of a toxin (poisonous to insects and mammals in sufficient doses), arsenic would not (poisonous to almost all life, but not produced by a living organism).

Sorry for being so pedantic, but this is a pet peeve of mine.

Three charges related to a second woman were dismissed because she is now dead.

Yeah… I’d like to know more about that.
