There was plenty of it going on around here. Even after Napster was taken down, there was Kazaa, Limewire, and your choice of Gnutella client. It was mostly us downloading stuff to listen to on the bus because high speed internet was rare unless you were in a city.

By “remotely”, I think they mean outside the range of a key fob.

It’s from a prediction market site (which is just gambling in a trenchcoat and Groucho Marx glasses) where you buy shares in the prediction of an outcome. That’s the price for a share in “Yes”.

This isn’t new either. A song was written about it 25 years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4L20t8Dvlg

Is that one currently held by Brett Favre for defrauding the state of Mississippi?

Al does not give a shit anymore, especially if the game is terrible.

It really depends on the stadium how much they gouge you. $20 is more than every NFL stadium charges for 16 oz (about 48 cl) of beer according to this as of February 2026: https://1075thefan.com/playlist/price-of-beer-at-every-nfl-stadium

For Virginia (Number)-(3 digit number)L are local government vehicles and (number)-(3 digit number)S are state government vehicles. State police and those belonging to members of the General Assembly just have incrementing numbers.

They use the coffee bean supplier that Tim Horton’s used to until Timmy Ho’s cheaped out.

Wait until you have your toilet paper being pawed at by a pet. Underhand means the roll just spins. Overhand has them unrolling all that paper onto the floor.

The terrain makes it hard for China to try an invasion as well and if they do try, Taiwan is going to disable their crown jewels instead of letting China have them.

The UK has the Data Processing Act of 2018 and this would violate that law as well. It’s probably stricter because it includes the GDPR by reference.

What’s the difference between God and a doctor? God doesn’t think he’s a doctor.

The only time a doctor has recorded me, they asked for consent first and then the recording went into a HIPAA compliant EMR system. This doctor has done neither.

A poll of the UK had Binface at 33%, Farage at 20%, and the rest either neither or other. For the same poll done in Clacton, it was 73% Farage, 20% Binface, and the rest neither or other.

This asshole is testing some deep waters when it comes to contributory liability of copyright infringement in the US: https://www.cooley.com/news/insight/2026/2026-03-26-supreme-court-confirms-limits-on-contributory-liability-for-copyright-infringement

The US has the importation issue on a smaller scale because the tax on cigarettes varies between cities and states. Crooks will drive box trucks full of cigarettes from Virginia (which has the second lowest tax on them) to New York City (which has the highest).

A form has to be filled out above a certain number of packs so they’ll buy just below that amount at different locations to avoid having the purchases recorded by the state.

Newegg was bundling other parts with video cards to deter scalping. I got a Sapphire Pulse 9070 XT 16GB and 750W power supply for $630 a few months back. It’s now “on sale” by itself for $790. Months before that it was closer to $500!

The Seagate Exos 20 TB hard drives I paid $350-$400 each for over a year ago are now $793.

It’s absolutely insane.

Who in their right mind is signing a player whose case is still going through the legal system? He could face life in prison or prison time long enough that his NFL career will be gone by the time he is released.

Plus lifetime disqualification from working in law enforcement. Many states do have registries of who is and is not qualified to work in law enforcement but they’re each for their own state since the rules vary between states. A registry of those banned for misconduct needs to be federal and enforced so someone banned in one state can’t be hired in another state or by the federal government.
