Too crazy; didn't read

And by the way, Einstein, Water has two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen. Hence H2O, not HO2.

Wow. You doubled down without doing even a modicum of research. Even Google's AI could have saved you some embarrassment. Keep spitting those facts, genius. I'll stick with those "alternative facts" that actual chemists use.

Waitaminit. For decades, liberals have been saying that voting was the mostest importantest right evuh. It's far too important to even ask racist questions, like "Are you a US citizen?" before voting. Now you're telling me that it's not important enough to to validate your identity when your signature doesn't match? Maybe we could do, like, in person voting all on the same day and show an ID at the same time so these kinds of problems wouldn't crop up. Naaaah. it'd never work. Otherwise, other countries would have done it.

Thank you for the clearing that up. I see your chemistry knowledge is as comprehensive as your political education. I was totally unaware that H2O2 is water. I always thought that was H2O. All you knowledgeable liberals should make sure to keep pointing out those facts to us uneducated heathens.

No he's not. I've worked in higher education for several decades. When I first came here, the administrative wing was one side of one floor of one building. Now they have an entire building, filling three floors and are discussing taking over the basement and kicking out the department there. That doesn't even count the administrative departments for marketing, enrollment management, retention, advising and campus life that fills half the student union. Most of that didn't exist back then. Our enrollment is about 20% higher, at around 12,000, than it was when I first started.

They also poured money into Lennart Poettering which cancels out Linus on the scoreboard.

Rod Serling went to Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio which is just a few miles from Centerville physically (but light years away philosophically). It's why some of his Twilight Zone episodes were set in "named" Ohio cities. Nick of Time, It's a Good Life, Stopover. A Stop at Willoughby is supposedly named after Willoughby, Ohio but set in Connecticut. There were also a lot of New York set episodes as a nod to his time there too.

Oddly enough, Dave Chappelle is a current resident of Yellow Springs.

Wow. Just wow. Giving someone money or not taking earned money away from them are the same thing? Karl Marx would be proud of you. I think you mean, the economic effect is the same. Calling them equivalent is the moral argument that the socialists have been pushing forever where "rich" is anyone with more money that the socialist.

This we can agree on. This is why I fully support the government assistance class being required to make a work effort. This increases productivity and means more goods and services. Too many liberals think that free government handouts work like a kid's allowance with no economic or social downside. This is how we end up with perpetual generational poverty and eternal government dependence.

Many places these days have terrible acoustics without any drop ceilings or sound baffling, just open high metal ceilings with terrible echoes. Some of them then crank up the music so loud that customers have to raise their voice to be heard across the table and that reinforces the racket. It's like having a meal on a factory floor. I have two friends that wear hearing aids and they both struggle to follow the conversation in noisy environments.

I avoid these places unless someone insists that we meet there. One bar/restaurant that I used to go, plays music I like and has food I like, but the din is now so overwhelming it's not worth the visit. If I have to shout to be heard two feet away over dinner, I'll find somewhere else to go.

I never claimed I "matched" it nor do I try. My claim it that it is a far better experience for me. Much cheaper. No distractions. No inconsiderate assholes. Can pause and rewind. No driving and looking for parking. No planning my evening around theater schedules. No ads. Same movie. Good enough.

You're still trying to push the old vinyl vs mp3 type argument again. Enjoy your vinyl if it makes you feel special. I'm happy with my convenient mp3s.

Saw that at the theater. I was disappointed. Saw Solo next. It was so bad, I haven't seen anything Star Wars since. My last trip to the theater was for Joker. The first one, not the musical sequel. I enjoyed it. Not what I expected, but good anyway. But then COVID happened and I beefed up my home theater setup. I have no interest in going back.

And I'm not sitting 50 feet away from it. I have a 75 inch 4K HDR TV and a Sony sound system. I can sit as close as I want. Or I can fire up my projector on the 120 inch screen.

Last time I went some idiot kept checking his phone down in front of me. During dark scenes, I would have a big spot my night vision and take time to recover. Still not as bad as the time some asshole was taking pictures of his family during the start of the movie. Flash photography blindness takes much longer to overcome.

Something I do not care if I miss, just like the teen behind me talking during the whole movie and his girlfriend telling him to shut up. I also don't miss the guy ripping farts for the whole two hours. Can't move because my seat is assigned now.

Ads just make the experience worse. On my last trip, I took my son and it cost way more than buying the BluRay. A single bucket of popcorn, two drinks and tickets for two cost me $75 bucks. Atmos and a 90 foot screen aren't worth $75 to me especially when you throw in all the other problems.

Dude... It's not just one network. Perhaps you are unaware with the NBC, Washington Post and CNN settlements to Nick Sandmann. Or the defamation settlement by ABC to Donald Trump. Or the CBS alteration of the Kamala Harris' gibberish interview followed by a lawsuit. CBS is trying to settle with a lowball offer and their enablers are jumping ship. Just to be fair, look at Fox News' settlement to Dominion. Even Karine Jean-Pierre wrote a book on the Biden denials that were true. And apparently she was working on that book while still acting as press secretary.

These are all irrespective of the years and years of other repeated lies and calls to ignore our own eyes and ears. This is why the mainstream media is losing out to social media. It might be time to exit that smug bubble.

They raised my fee. And kept raising it. That's why I cancelled. I have no desire to pay extra for video I don't watch, Music I don't listen to or whatever else "free" media they want to bundle into my price.
