  1. I don't recall whether this has been discussed here before but apparently some coaches at some schools have been chattering to Ross Dellenger about being able to double their school's direct payments to athletes as part of the House/NIL settlement this year, as soon as it's finalized, due to a budgeting anomaly created by it being the first year of schools paying athletes directly.
  2. Sometimes you find some of the most interesting things on the local subreddit. This is the glory hole store in Fort Collins. This guy did a similar thread near the beginning of the pandemic but quickly deleted it so I'm sharing with you all, for the hell of it, and in case any of you boys need to get away from the family while you're in town. link in case it's still up and spoilered due to length www.reddit.com/r/FortCollins/comments/1gvgfyr/i_havent_worked_at_the_book_ranch_in_4_years_but/?sort=old
  3. I'm under the impression that the liability potential is their main hurdle. Waymo is already driverless and on the road, but not elmo.
  4. You didn't ask me but I'll try to pass along some of the things I've learned from my wife about cooking classes. Make sure everyone in your group is excited about it. More than anything it's a social occasion. When picking which cooking school you want to go to look for one that focuses on teaching techniques important to the cuisine rather than those that just market themselves as about cooking and consuming a fabulous meal. For as much as you'll pay for the cooking class, you can get a better meal from a top restaurant. Therefore, learning something that you wouldn't necessarily understand from reading a book is important in how rewarding the class is. A bonus is if the school includes a preliminary tour through a local market of the sort that professional chefs would shop at - that way you can learn some of the things they look for. For Paris, that's primarily the Bastille market but there are others.
  5. If you're seeing a lot of unwanted partisan accounts in your replies or getting reposted into your feed, I recommend using the blocklist "Right wing propaganda and their followers" by ‪@numb.comfortab.ly‬ and opting to mute them all. It catches almost all the accounts I see people complaining about.
  6. Apparently it's been the #1 app dl'd on apple and google for a couple days. The CEO said they're working to scale it.
  7. "Good move" for Argentina to lower tariffs but the fascist he spent at least $200m to get elected has promised raise tariffs in the US. Imagine being a CEO, government contractor, sucker of the government teet, and buddies with a supposed president but giving more of a fuck about Argentina than the US.
  8. I don't know that a conviction of any single individual is the end goal as much as using the government to attack them, harm them mentally, and drive them towards bankruptcy due to attorney fees, plus the resulting silence or acquiescence from the public who'd want to avoid that type of retribution.
  9. also https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/8b060c46ee6f49908f9fb415ad23051c here's a link to his post which shows some targets outside the range of ATACMS - the video won't embed here https://bsky.app/profile/georgewbarros.bsky.social/post/3lb62mwoqks27
  10. Best news in weeks. Also comes on the heels of Scholz's attempted outreach to Putin by phone yesterday, followed by a big middle finger from Putin with a major strike last night.
  11. Or they may just resign from the military. Which is the likely goal - make sure all the leaders are loyal to the fascists.
  12. Going with the "no dumb questions" theory, what would that do? I'm guessing it'd allow us to post with our usernames here and share info, such as follow lists? (That seems potentially awesome.)
  13. You can't possibly be this stupid and gullible. But you're very convincing. Negged.
  14. Not right now. I'm sure that's been requested as a new feature though and they're constantly adding new features. Can't hurt for you to request it too. There's a place to do request new features, I believe through settings and then help. For the time being try sticking a red pin to the post you want to easily find, that might be the easiest thing. https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:q6gjnaw2blty4crticxkmujt/feed/my-pins that creates your own feed of posts you've put a red pin to and your last one will be easy to find. Also when I joined I had to turn off the setting that showed replies to posts because that was driving me nuts and they had it on by default. Not sure if it's still on by default but that's another setting you may want to turn off at settings > following feed preferences.
  15. Reminds me of a story I heard about Putin not too long ago. I think it may have been told by a former head of British SIS - in any event it was a spy who had been in Germany at the time. Putin, as is public record, was a KGB agent in East Germany in 1989 when the wall came down. He hurriedly evacuated back to the USSR with a washing machine that had been gifted to him loaded on top of his station wagon. Maybe he started the trend.
  16. So this escapee from a psycho ward has at least 3 accounts going now? What a loser.
  17. So you're saying you can't start a lawnmower. Understood. You seem much more regarded than even I thought at first. Do you know how to unlock a door?
  18. Your daily life must be extremely confusing to you. I doubt you even know how to start a lawnmower.
  19. Melon Husk choreographed a pre-game show and this is what it looked like 1gqcccq.mp4
