I can play devil's advocate to the syndication approach, to some extent. The current season of Picard is actually fun and it's continuing story arcs and providing all the member berries anyone would want.... But it isn't abou

You're forgetting Morn: the station's quintessential lady's man. I think the only downside with his character is he talked too much.

"EVs will/will not create more pollution than they eliminate." I'm just skeptical about the heavy push for passenger EVs: while they're a small fraction of the carbon emissions pie in the world, they manage to be wh

I'm not sure if a comparison to the ivy schools is relevant: yes, there are certainly more prestigious schools out there. I suppose anything depends on the job you're hiring for, as well: they're better at finance than engine

It might have something to do with the fact that so many episodes revolve around some elaborate game the kids play. Or, it might be related to how the parents have infinite time to skip work and indulge their precious kids. I mean, obviousl

I mean, the new movies and shows in general aren't very good, but I'm surprised how good Bluey is. I think I like it better than my kids.

I think one of the things that has kept me from games over the past 6 months is the progression systems that are tricking me into wanting to play more. I mean, everything in moderation, and I'd like to finish Elden Ring, but family tim

I guess an open question is if there are two categories of women and everyone, does it imply that the female category is less competitive? And, if so, is that a bad thing? And, finally, if fewer men played chess competitively and the shoe w

Thanks for sharing, I'm sorry to hear about all the problems you're having. I think a major issue is just water being the root of all evil for house problems and the bigger your house is, the more recent it was built, the more cor

>Change is needed but no one wants it. I think ultimately, action to reduce emissions by a significant amount means a lower standard of living if you're in a developed country and reducing expectations for a higher standard of livin

Could you elaborate on what problems occur on those houses versus normally sized ones? Framing? The foundation?

I actually think the class needs a book or at least an extended article written about the end of the "shaft" era. I've never seen a professor brag about a student offering a bribe in order to pass. It was interesting to see s

If it's an expensive neighborhood in a region with a growing economy then I would think the McMansions would be fine.

The Georgia Tech cs2130 class, languages and translation, the third required cs class for the major, was notorious as being a weeder course around 1999. The professor made it clear that there would be no partial credit for code that could b

Yeah, same here. It's the feeling of horror knowing that you pulled an all-nighter playing a video game when you planned the all-nighter for cramming for a final. On the plus side the American tank offensive was looking pretty good for

There was a study that showed the number of times NYTimes used the words "racist", "sexist", etc went up 400% or so in the 2010's. I'm not sure if the study covered npr, but I definitely noticed that by 2015, e

The "who are the elites?" question is one that many people struggle with when looking for who to point a finger at for modern economic woes. A lot us who post on this site are in technical fields and are well-compensated. So it wo

People are so literal here. It's great. You are correct, I should have put "underage" and not "minors".

I think this was more or less normal over twenty years ago when everyone started to crack down on underage drinking. Get caught serving minors or hazing and the university might take your house away. From the university's standpoint th

My original comment was about irony and it should have been obvious that it was subjective: no assertion to prove or disprove. I genuinely have no idea what you're attempting to argue with me about.

I don't think Bayes theorem is necessary to demonstrate irony, dude.

It's also ironic that women vote to prioritize environmental issues consistently more than men. This apparently doesn't matter as much when it comes to their personal decisions to buy an EV!

Car trips can feel very sketchy when you're in the middle of nowhere, late at night, potentially with small children. Imagine a dimly lit rest stop late at night with two cars at it. Can you trust the people in these cars or is there p

The cabin controls are okay on Hyundais, I guess. I remember having to use the touchscreen to set the rear temperature controls. This is confusing when the main screen is occupied by Android auto. So it isn't like you have button contr

There have been studies available for years now that show people only spend about twenty minutes at a time in vr. It's ludicrous that Zuck was willing to bet the future of his company knowing that.

Yoko Ono notoriously stole a cookie from George Harrison. So either she thought the cookies belonged to everyone or the Beatles breaking up really was her fault.
