I remember there used to be a magazine full of major authors like Michael Crichton, Issac Asimov, Stephen King, writing free articles specifically for the magazine. Things like 'how to write' or 'the origins of inspiration'. Great stuff! But the articles were all tropes and trash, obvious advice like 'write every day'. It made no sense. But then someone explained it to me: professional writers write for money, duh. Coax them to write for free and you get exactly what was paid for.
The illusion has me fooled, I can't see anything else but a huge colormatched box on the hood. What is it really?
There should be another name for skillful, creative street art, to distinguish it from the far more common talentless, juvenile vandalism:
There should be another name for creative, skillful street art, rather then including it with the far more typical talentless juvenile vandalism:
There should be another term to describe creative and skillful urban art, rather than including it in the same category as the far more typical talentless junior high school vandalism:
#2 Already using those hot sexy womins to sell cars...
Saw this Night Gallery episode as a kid. Still the scariest killer doll ever.
This is MAGA reasoning in reverse. Try flipping this argument and see if it doesn't sound familiar.
The one detail I couldn't wrap my head around in '1984' was the central motivation, the 'why' of it all. Orwell centered it all around power, the joy of being the 'boot stomping a human face, forever.' It seemed sort of weak, since everyone in that world suffered. Now we're living it and I believe, now. Set the planet on fire, if it will elevate the select however slightly, and pwn the libs. Power at any cost. Orwell understood, seventy years ago. He was right.
Read all six, and fully agree with this recommendation. Wish I'd stopped at 'Dune Messiah', it was a beautiful end to the story. The rest of series was reminiscent of a TV series that gets renewed far beyond its planned ending: evil and intrigue out of nowhere, plots and characters more and more outlandish.
This should have been of post of its own.
There's no RCA jack on your 80-lb TV, just a carry handle. To record audio, hold the tape deck microphone close to the speaker. Hope to finish before your sister walks in and makes noise.
Perhaps a better student of history will correct me, but the strength of any coup relies on that country's military. They are the ultimate arbiters of who wins a coup. I encourage Trump and his minions to continue marginalizing all military personnel past and present. So long as the armed forces and their leadership remain in our corner, the Nationalist scum will never have the upper hand.
Simply, no. I see the advertised name, recognize it, remember all those ads designed for me to remember; and then I buy something else.
A few disagree with the depiction of IT. I don't. 35 years ago doing component-level service; 20 years ago, modular service getting progressively simpler; and just retired from a company adopting SaaS where the answer to almost every problem is to replace the computer or re-image it. Both tasks will evolve to user-level, and then IT will be call centers, and level 2 and 3 positions within MS and Google. A dying profession. IT? You mean like, grandad's TV repair?
That passing detail of a 'watchdog organization' reporting suspicious content to the police infers that the industry has no problem with this and cloud content, any cloud from any service, is likely being scanned in its entirety. All your data is known to others. Use any cloud, and your photos and files are virtually public. Users have never seemed to care, and Edward Snowden sacrificed his future for nothing. A pedophile was easily caught through the mechanizations of our police state. Yay?
Gotta love the double psychosis: "Swear on this bible that you walked on the moon." And if Buzz had sworn on the christian storybook? Well, that's convincing proof, then.
There's a reason to remember old methods: because most of the new ones require you to log in, to identify yourself and your ever-growing metrics record to some faceless company with a long, opaque EULA. The time is coming where you won't be able to put your pants on without getting corporate permission... and paying a small fee.
Lots of 'fans', 'trying their hand' at duplicating his work. We don't know what Watterson's thinking was but here's a possibility: This is my work, my voice. Ten year of style, ideas, viewpoint and expression that came from who I am. If you blindly duplicate rather than create, you're honing the skills of a copy machine. I encourage artists.
Typical motives from the police, but the result was ideal: the house was not peppered with hundreds of police rounds that endangered the neighbors, they later collected the weapon, then they collected him. Like how it might be done in someplace like Belgium. Now if only their next brown-skinned barricaded gunman was treated like this...
If only the punchline of that story were true: the unknown one who dies is the last one who pushed the button. Just think of the problems it would solve.
Per the chart: 'Intel ignites the trend of personal computing'. I seem to remember that credit to the Apple Macintosh, and for good reason.
to explain this are those without empathy. 2/2
This is true of trust generally. Violate another's trust and you will likely never have it again. The only people who need an expert 1/2
I was bullied in high school, class of '75. Nearly a half-century maturation of our educational system since, faculty still has NO CLUE
