Speaking of the CDC and to get far far away from going on about Derek's man parts...

Who the hell thought it was a good idea to put a research facility full of the worst get hosed viruses the world has ever known right next to a major metropolitan area?? It's literally 6 miles from downtown Atlanta. I guess 5 miles would have been too close for GhonaSyphaHerpleAIDS but 6 is "just right"

I think the most dangerous stuff (biosafety level 4) is kept at USAMRIID (United States Army Medical Reseach Institute of Infectious Disease) in Fort Detrick, Maryland.

Well great. Now between what you guys are saying I've got to go add "Where do we keep all the get hosed diseases" to my google search history. I'll expect that 4th amendment violator guy at my door in a few hours.

Tangents like these during the day are why I never get any work done. But, much like SC, I get paid no matter when I put poo poo out.

there's some talk going around of STAR CITIZEN: A CHRIS ROBERTS GAME IN CONJUNCTION WITH AMAZON STUDIOS or something eerily similar regarding marketing material

considering they straight up now have people from amazons payroll doing engine and tools work for them, its only a matter of time before it gets out anyway


Will Chris be able to kill AGS as well?

Mixing blue cheese and something sweet is the best way to eat it balancing the bitterness of the skanky mold, digestive biscuits and blue cheese being the classic example. I suspect a blue cheese and yogurt taco would work in exactly the same way.

Same.

Only way for this to be true is if Amazon had 100% control and their dev team really thought they could pull it off, plus attract new market, or change the commercial structure so existing backers had to pay again via P2W, subscription or similar.

To expect anything to endure a steady enough audience for 5 years is a miracle ,unless you're pumping out new content constantly

You know this explains why the Old Amsterdam Cheese I got in the US didn't taste nearly as good as it did when I was in NL. I do feel slightly robbed now.

But cheese aside, let's discuss a proper hamburger. Never going to beat a real American burger. Nor our chicken wings. And being in the south sweet tea and pork BBQ is a luxury that makes most Euro cuisine seem straight out of the third world. gently caress, an actual Italian pizza in Rome wasn't even as great as Papa Johns. Yeah, I said it.

The foods I miss the most from my time in Europe are currywurst and pork schnitzel. And those both were German. Which is really all Berlin had going for it. Scottish breakfast was amazing though. Haggis is a pretty great addition to the English breakfast.

Scotch eggs own also

About the Juicero posted:

“He either bullies you until you submit to what he wants to do, or he finds someone else who will go along with what it is he wants,” a former employee who was aggressively courted to join the company told Gizmodo. More charitably, another said, “He had his hands in almost every part of the business which is just impossible for anybody to do. It’s not good management to try to control everything.”

About the Juicero posted:

Among my many hours of conversations with the people who made Juicero the spectacle—for better or worse—that it is today, the interpretation that feels the closest to truth is this: “Until you live in Silicon Valley, you don’t realize how many dumb rich people there are.”

This is true. We have to be real careful with him during the summer. Actually, most dogs here need a little extra attention during the summer. Sadly a lot of them don't get it and spend all day out in the sun or get taken for walks when the pavement is scorching hot :smith:

e: maybe "real" doesn't belong in front of careful, there. He does fine in the summer, as do lots of shaggy dogs here, we're probably a bit overprotective.
