Also, it's bespoke. That should add another zero.

I think he know Trump is going to help Russia in every way possible, so he might as well let Ukraine get since more serious hits in now while they can

A lot of dumb people thought they could talk about killing politicians on the Internet if they ended their message with "in Minecraft" so they could claim they were just taking about a game. At least one of them has already been arrested proving their plan doesn't actually provide any defense.

So a Minecraft cause would be someone plotting (and then presumably actually) killing them.

I don't have calf cramps, but sometimes I'll be flexing my toes and I'll feel one start to fire up a cramp, and it's a fast-paced high-stakes game of Operation, where I keep moving my toe around trying to find the magic relaxation spot, while it sends off more and more alarming pre-cramp warning buzzes. (That may not be a perfect metaphor but I got tired of thinking of board games. I also considered Battleship.)

Yes, it was really crazy. In the past few decades our politicians had different goals, but generally still followed the same rules. Trump has shown he wants to dismantle any and all systems that don't serve him, and the Republican party is happy to let him do so, so this election seems like it might have far greater consequences than the ones in memorable past.

IT systems need a way to pre-enter an account deactivation, and when HR sends a text to the system it makes it live, or something. I've been the IT guy who was told to disable an account, and the user found out before the news was broken so they asked me what was going on. No bueno.

I guess I was thinking of how to videos like how to fix a part on your car. But yeah I can see how how to videos like that still being an opportunity for Google to make money.

People who watch tutorial videos only get on, watch the video and then leave. How are they supposed to make tons of advertising revenue from that? No, we must sacrifice that class of video from the platform, in pursuit of the almighty dollar.

They intentionally called her that so you would think of it, so it's not you, it's them.

Is it ever stated that the serpent is actually Satan?

Yeah, me too. Sorry, I'm just tired.
