But a positive heating benefit in the winter. Would need some testing to know which impact is larger.

God the sequel book was a piece of utter trash. What a disappointment that this never became the franchise it deserved.

Cars with tinted windows should be confiscated and held until drivers complete a safety course of walking and riding bikes, to teach them how dangerous it is for drivers to hide

Seriously one of those "if I had a time machine" bands for me. God I love the Cramps and I wish I had been able to see them - age and geography notwithstanding.

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

I need to start checking the forecast and carrying my rain gear again. No bad weather, just bad gear. And I did not have the right gear on tonight. I did have a lovely hot shower to warm up when I got home though.

They should have just installed a staple rack instead of trying to get artistic with it

The funniest thing about this is all the people replying who have no sense of humor whatsoever.

We need to figure out something better for Millennium Park than janky tents and mall cops clogging up the entrance and exits.

As a public service, I thought I'd offer a little constructive criticism of the most popular styles of bike racks, since it appears that the entities that manufacture and install these racks are clueless about the needs of actual bike riders.

Came across the phrase "cognitive DDOS" to describe our present culture.

Understood instantly what it meant.

Just a reminder:

Yeah even when cars are driven legally, they are still more dangerous than a bicycle being ridden illegally.

Regular neighborhood produce market strawberries in Japan were the best strawberries I ever had in my life, and all that I have had since then have paled (literally) in comparison.

Awesome. And expected delivery in October, which means I should have a copy in hand for Debs' and my shared birthday at the beginning of November.

How is the 146 an "Express" bus when it stops every two blocks?
