Vance is part of a specific far right hyperpolitical faction of Catholics that he adopted via his patron Thiel.

California does have a regulated market already. If these companies want to participate in the market they can follow the rules like other market participants.

What you are saying doesnt make sense. They established a legal regulated market for cannabis products. It exists now. If these companies want to compete in that regulated market they can follow the rules and do so.

It doesn’t, they aren’t.

How does that make sense? They have a regulated state market that he is trying to protect. Letting drugs from unregulated companies compete against regulated drugs from the companies following the rules has created a variety of serious problems in the market. I don’t understand how you are getting far right out of this.

I missed that Dyson had sued people for calling him out on his hypocrisy. What a complete piece of shit that guy is.

Bots are all over Reddit, you likely only noticed the obvious ones. There’s nonstop campaigns to manipulate people via Reddit and all sorts of groups have armies of bots posing as users.

In many ways, Reddit has evolved into what it is. Much like biological evolution, there’s all sorts of things about it that are vestigial, or poorly designed, or don’t really make sense if you don’t understand natural selection. Its also become a publicly traded company so in recent years the quest for profitability has been rapidly transforming it in new and specific ways that only make sense from that perspective.

Yesterday was the first time I noticed any in a long time.

The teacher had a favorite, who sat behind me. Anytime she tried to talk to me I got in trouble. I literally got detention once where I had to write out the same run on sentence over and over again 75 times about how sorry I was for being disruptive in class, all because this girl leaned forward and tapped me on the shoulder while the teacher was looking at me. I never spoke a word to her, I didn’t even look back at her. Teacher didn’t care, it was somehow my fault. I remember my hand cramping up writing the sentence and after the first however many minutes my writing started deteriorating so the teacher made me redo sentences. It was a very painful and miserable experience, I could barely hold the pencil by the end. Thinking about it now, that teacher was a sadist and had a very creepy fixation on that girl.

It seems pretty common in the industry to go see a movie during the workday every once in awhile. I think companies often get free or discounted tickets so its relatively low cost for them. Doing a surprise day of mandatory fun isn’t likely to go over well with anyone who has actual work to get done.

People are mostly dumb. Justice is largely a myth. Chaos reigns.

Maybe it has to do with its effects on GABA receptors? Have you ever tried something like gabapentin or pregabalin?

I would eat insects right now if they were cooked by a chef who knew what they were doing.

I think once you have been awake past a certain point your brain becomes sort of desensitized to sleepiness and it gets easier to keep staying awake. Or at least that is how my brain is, things get weird but I will feel like I can keep going when I really shouldn’t.

There is no law forcing Nvidia to require accounts to download drivers. I literally just downloaded Nvidia drivers a few days ago without needing an account.

They dont? I’ve downloaded Nvidia drivers many times and never had to create an account.
