When we switch to DST, we "Fall Back. ". We set the clocks one hour back, at 2:00am Sunday, so basically we get an extra hour of sleep just on that night. Then we lose one when we set the clocks forward in the spring.
To be fair, I don’t think that extra hour, once in the Fall, is used as a reason for Daylight Savings in any debates.
By your logic the president can only be arrested if the morality police and religious hardliners disagree. 🤔
I have tried many times to do exactly what you said, and I still am not getting the option to add a custom search engine.
Any advice you have is appreciated.
Look at it this way, Google stopped caring about their viewers as anything more than wallets to empty years ago. Now they’re going through the same cycle with advertisers. They don’t care if the ads land, or the targeting works, just that they can convince them to keep buying ad space.
Eventually the ROI will show as not worth it to the advertisers, but by then Pichai and the rest of the C-suite will be pulling the same scam at another company whose investors are more greedy and stupid than saavy.
Because the horrible truth of America now, is that CEOs and their ilk have stopped caring about creating value, or building a sustainable business model with long term revenue. Now they just look at witless investors as wallets to be emptied too.
As an old person, I approve this message. It’s exhausting to keep screwing things up for everyone that comes after us.
Consider how the federalization of Student Loans has contributed to the price of college outpacing inflation by many times, and income by a magnitude.
That’s still only part of the problem, of course, hiring university leadership from the for profit business sector, privatizing loan servicing, etc. have all made college tuition skyrocket, but the loan program is a major issue.
A better option for college would be to subsidize universities directly with the requirements that their tuition stay within a linear relationship to inflation. Somewhat like state colleges offering low tuition for residents.
Housing needs more federal controls, which, to her credit she has explored in her platform along with disincentivizing, exploitative investment in private housing.
FWIW, I didn’t read anything in BM’s post that made me think he was arguing the incident was fake. I interpreted that (s)he was saying it probably was other debris or shrapnel, and he’s insisting it was an actual slug to look like a tough guy.
Right on, this isn’t about Ukraine’s restraint, it’s about Russia’s psychopathy.

FWIW, I had a subscription over a decade ago. I can’t say I ever thought of it as “Left”, it was at best, corporate center. But it definitely has gone more right as it has also gone more sensationalist. They partnered with Daily Beast for a while, and then were sold to IBT media, an international “news and Information” conglomerate. I think your memories are from the old hard journalism days, and they have gone back to corporate, but corporate-right.
Anachronox. Ion Storm at it’s best. Engaging plot and characters, humor well ahead of its time for a game script, and party members and environments that I’ve still never seen many games match to this day. I don’t know why it didn’t become huge, I think the rpg crowd back then was still pretty married to sword and sandal conventions. If you like old games, I can’t recommend it enough.
Obligatory: Uncle Tom was actually a good guy. The idea that he was some kind of traitor or such comes from a crappy adaptation of the book. In the actual book he dies to save some other slaves.
“Rock the vote”?
Fixed.
Oh! And we may get rid of Non-compete agreements because the FTC just voted to recommend a ban.
His FCC brought back net Neutrality. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/net-neutrality-fcc/
His CFPB put up limits to anti-consumer terms for payday loans and bank fees. https://www.americanprogress.org/article/the-cfpb-is-cleaning-up-junk-fees/
His administration raised fees for oil drilling in several major areas, although he also approved a large number of drilling permits so this may be a wash. https://apnews.com/article/oil-gas-drilling-public-lands-interior-climate-ffc88438d6f9c5d48e9a8fc7cffc749a
The UAW endorsed Biden. This gets weird, because many blame Biden for ending the rail strike, which he did, and which echoes the Bush Sr. Foul play with ATCs and pilots. But in exchange for ending the strike they got nearly everything they were asking for in the first place. Fain plays hardball and has probably gotten more for unions and their members than almost anyone, if he’s okay with Biden, I’m inclined to agree.

That was a lame joke about the check mark. 😔

Check out Nile Red on Nebula, (or YT if that’s your bag). He makes American Cheese from the ground cheddar up and you can watch. Having done so, I agree with you.
