Apparently CEOs like living more than they like making money.

I would say that the issue is not who is doing the pardoning but who is being pardoned. There’s a clear difference between Hunter being pardoned and Russian assets being pardoned.

The real problem is that these people get away with it. There are no consequences to their actions. If no one is going to hold them accountable then it’s not just a belief they have, they really are above the law.

Not sure when things changed but all I know is that when I bought mine years ago the Kobo site redirected me to Walmart and that’s where I had to buy it. My e-reader even displays the Walmart logo on it when I power it off.

Kobo was sold exclusively through Walmart in the US (at least when I bought my Kobo). I think they recently ended the partnership.

I’ve always felt that we support Israel for the same reason we support Ukraine. They’re a friendly military force located in a region of the world where we have enemies. Ukraine helps counter Russia and the same for Israel during the Soviet Union era. Now Israel is a counter to Iran and various terrorist groups.

The joke is so obvious there’s no need to comment on it so others, including myself, are using this as an opportunity to post our opinions on the difference between sci-fi and fantasy.

I would argue that science fiction and fantasy are the same thing and the only difference is the explanation for how all the cool stuff works.

Functionally, there’s no real difference between a portal that takes the characters to another world using a wormhole and one that does it through through magic. Just like how there’s no difference between Vulcans/Klingons/Wookies and Elves/Dwarves/Beastmen. Both are intelligent non-humans.

They think when the chaos hits they’ll be the ones climbing the ladder instead of the ones being used as a ladder.

If I was a corrupt Russian general, embezzling funds meant for nuclear deterrence upkeep would be a pretty safe bet since they are the weapons least likely to ever be used and thus least likely to be found out.

That’s exactly what I thought as well from reading the headline. It definitely could have been worded better.

I didn’t realize you could put the steam deck to sleep with a game still running. I had assumed it would cause game issues.

Out of curiosity, what do you use to transfer files between computers?

Just to clarify. Insider trading is illegal but it is not illegal for politicians in Congress to use the information they obtain from their jobs (such as through classified meetings) to engage in stock market trades.

That is definitely way too invasive. Plugging something on to a Roku TV shouldn’t enable them to show you ads through that other device.

I was actually thinking about getting a Roku once too. Really dodged a bullet.

From what I’ve read previously, I’m not sure that’s enough.

That sounds almost exactly like the Sexual Harassment Prevention training I have to take every year.

If they want these trainings to actually be effective, then they need to actually put in the effort to make the training actually effective.

“See you next Tuesday” is a derogatory euphemism?

Edit: I would have never figured out what it was supposed to mean on my own. I had never heard of that before and judging by all the quick replies it’s a more well known insult then I would have guessed.
