It doesn’t matter what your footwear is made of. If you don’t wear socks, it will get nasty.

Yes, I wear socks unless I’m going in the ocean or something.

What, no coach Gowron? That’s unforgivable.

I’ve just realized that the coach hasn’t posted since March, and now I’m sad.

I follow George Takei and Cory Doctorrow, too.

I’m going to say a Marriott in Manhattan, roughly in August 2007. I forget exactly where, but it was close to the WTC site.

I was on a business trip, and I wasn’t paying for it. The room wasn’t dirty or anything, but its just felt delapidated. There was wallpaper peeling in a couple of spots.

It certainly wasn’t horrible, but I just remember thinking about the fact that this just-adequate room in a major chain hotel was costing five hundred dollars a night.

I shudder to think what it would cost now.

They’re so stupid looking, but so unfortunately comfortable. I wear a pair indoors all the time, but not to leave the house.

I’ve only played one game since 2005.

I think that was the joke.

Ignorant of the subject matter, but I ripped a bunch of CDs to FLAC some time ago. Would that not work for this purpose?

I think I have seen this and been confused by it. Does it mean that nobody should assume they have right of way? For example, having right of way isn’t necessarily an excuse for being in an accident because you didn’t give way to someone driving badly.

If a person didn’t yield at a sign saying they should, and caused an accident as a result, they are demonstrably at fault.

Well, it was twenty years ago, so my memory might not be fresh, but we would go out to lunch, then head back to the office, so there was some elapsed time in between.

I visited Costa Rica on a business trip around twenty years ago. The thing that blew my mind was every person in the building, after we got back from lunch, trooping to the bathroom and brushing their teeth. That’s public health done right.

It is basically a gyro.

IIRC people with older devices have found that replacing their battery does not significantly help, becathe replacement battery was manufactured at roughly the same time as the device it goes into, and has degraded over time even without use. This is anecdotal of course, but seems reasonable to me.

Some short browsing appears to indicate that batteries can last for years of stored properly, but how does one verify if the replacement battery in their phone was really stored appropriately?

I guess I completely misunderstood what that setting means. I turn it off and I can zoom and read the image. Turn it on and it’s rubbish.

I miss Coach Gowron

Wait, what? Explain, please.

That helps, thank you. I am thinking pancreatic cancer would be in this category. That’s horrible stuff.

Somebody explain what solid tumors are.
