It's over.
It's over.
My memories of college include feeling lucky if I had enough quarters to do laundry!
My memories of college include seeking lucky if I GOT LUCKY (ie got laid).
Oh to be a young lad chasing tail in the days when it was easy to just be boys and girls and no one had fear of false allegations, willfully fucking and no one yelling rape....or being put on blast on non-existent social media or having a fucking camera everywhere......those were the days.
Hell, I worked during the summers for money towards my college, along with parental help....and I had to do the old typical 'starving student' type thing.....save nickels and dimes for cheap beer/booze occasionally....pool funds for an occasional pizza...etc.
I didn't have money to wager.....
Is this what kids are using school loans for and racking up $100k's of debt over?
Sheesh.....and they they want a fucking bailout by the taxpayers....good luck on that.
Joe Biden is a far better person than Donald Trump. Mentally, emotionally, patriotically competently
LOL....you keep on smokin' whatever you're smokin'......seems to be good stuff.
Is it true that sperm donors make money hand over fist?
I was paid $35 per donation, and was allowed to donate up to three times per week.
So, $105 / week or $5,460 / year.
That would be about $10k / year in 2025 dollars.
The clinic was a ten minute walk from my workplace, so I'd walk there and back on my MWF lunch breaks.
As for asylum seekers and other types of immigration, I think we need to shut the door for awhile...period.
Until we can rectify the problems we have already in the country, let's quit letting anyone else in for awhile.....with only VERY rare exceptions.
Biden sure but through and through he was a decent person and it's quite sad we can't say that about the leader of our nation anymore.
You've gotta be shitting me...Biden was about as slimy, scummy and corrupt as they come.
His track record shows that from the early days of extreme pagerism, to corrupt connections via his family to foreign countries, often less than friendly to the US.
Hunters dalliances with foreign money and "no show" jobs was not an accident....done fully with Joes blessing while he still had a brain.
Joe Biden's corruption, and creepiness (did you is all the kid sniffing?) was long documented over his I whole political career.
He's as scummy as they come.....
Almost like they have a boner for masked law enforcement kidnapping people into rental vans.
If you're here in the US illegally....then I"m ALL FOR IT.
Frankly, I don't see a problem with this....I fail to understand why any American citizen would....
l think this comment wins the thread.
The time has come for a European University CSE department group to reverse-engineer HDMI 2.1 and publish a compatible implementation on Github.
There's a solid history of this category of work going back 30 years.
They have certain legal protections for compatibility and public interest work.
This 1990's licensing model is antiquated and obsolete.
IEEE and ITU have abdicated their responsibility so sombody like Valve needs to do for transport spec what AV1 did for codecs and linux did for operating systems.
"A rising tide lifts all boats" is common among free marketeers and communists but opposed by fascists.
> Is there a huge difference between a criminal organization and a multinational corporation?
Yes, huge difference.
The common-law criminals running corporations get statutory protection from liability for the crimes they commit under corporate letterhead.
A regular mafia has individual liability.
It was the sperm bank that didn't do the necessary checks
Was the test available at the time? Did other sperm banks check for this mutation?
and the sperm bank that shared his genetic material 200 times.
Way more than that. It was 200 babies, not 200 attempts. The success rate of artificial insemination is about 20%, so that's 1000 squirts.
I was a sperm donor back in the 1990s.
The donors aren't "random".
They are screened for general health, genetic defects, and academic achievement. I had to show my college transcripts, provide a blood sample, and have a medical examination.
TFA describes a screwup that only happened because a test for the condition wasn't available. But many other tests were done, so the odds were still better than an old-fashioned insemination.
Many of the recipients are women in nuclear families, whose husbands have fertility problems.
about environmental causes loose their shit when you tell them to cut back or eliminate eating meat.
Geez I guess they people would want to line all those on the "carnivore diet" against the proverbial wall and shoot them, eh?
By the way....do these documents give one carbon credits if you go on a diet???
If so, what can you buy with these credits?
