yea, there is a disclaimer at the top.

AI version of this, because I found it funny:

In Defense of Asbestos: The Mineral We Love to Hate

Look, everyone’s got their vices. Some people sip whiskey to “relax,” others puff cigars to feel “distinguished.” But heaven forbid you mention asbestos—suddenly, you’re the villain in a 1980s PSA.

But let’s be honest: asbestos walked so modern insulation could run. Before we had fancy synthetic fireproofing and high-tech soundproofing, asbestos was out here doing it all. Fire-resistant? Check. Insulating? Absolutely. Durable? Like the cockroach of minerals—won’t burn, won’t break, just vibes.

“Oh, but it causes health problems,” they say, as they light their third cigarette of the day and sip their third oat milk IPA. Everything causes health problems if you inhale it long enough. Ever tried breathing in glitter? Death trap.

And what happened to personal responsibility? You don’t see us eating asbestos sandwiches. We just want a little cozy, non-flammable nostalgia in our ceilings. It’s not like we’re snorting the stuff—though, let’s be real, if someone did that in the 70s, it was probably the same guy who invented disco.

Let’s stop pretending asbestos was some mustachio-twirling villain and start recognizing it for what it was: the gritty, misunderstood hero of 20th century construction. Sure, it had a dark side—but so did lead paint, and we don’t see that getting canceled on social media.

So here’s to asbestos: May your fibers be forever airborne in the halls of history, and your reputation just slightly less shredded than it deserves.

Godspeed, MTG, and good luck! Eat yourself alive GOP

And it only took how many years of people saying “wow, this is a really bad idea”

I loved OW1, went and saw a couple OWL games live, put hundreds of hours in…

No interest in OW2.

Of course, a mount like this would have been part of an achievement or an in-game event. Now its just “open your wallets”

yea, he expected him not to be willing to discuss Tienanmen Square, since no one in china would want to discuss the genocide.

Of course, considering hes not Chinese, he had not problem.

And you, clearly, are in another postal code entirely.

“are you a fascist or are you an anti-fascist?” is exclusionary, you can only be one. You cant both be facist and anti-facist, nor can it be 1 and not 1, they are logically exclusionary.

"“Are you Pro Israel or Pro Hamas” is not, and proposing that as an example shows a complete lack of understanding on basic syllogism.

the two are not logically exclusive. a correct comparison is

“are you Pro-Isreal, or Anti-Israel” and “are you Pro-Hamas or Anti-Hamas”.

come on, the Scottish/north english “yous” is better than Y’all, and yous cant deny it!

why? Theres no evidence of ice (ie voter fraud)?

but we can still point at people who have been in car accidents, people who have been injured or died from car accidents.

If no one (or almoast no one) had ever died been in a car accident, including death, injury, or just a fender bender, then carrying insurance or wearing a seatbelt wouldnt be needed.

If we had evidence of evidence of rampant/widespread voter fraud via mail in ballots, then overhauling or getting rid of the system would be needed.

“here’s a road, there have been no accidents on it for 25 years. I’m saying, without proof, that its icy and we need to rip the road out. not to rebuild it, not fix it by spreading sand or salt, just tear it out.”

bad decisions, like making a truck that looks like… that…

Mozilla, the company behind Firefox and Thunderbird, has talked a lot in recent years about the unfair advantages that platforms give to their first-party web browsers. Platform Tilt is a new effort from Mozilla to show how Firefox and other third-party browsers stack up against Chrome on Android, Safari on iPhone, and other platform pairings.

Mozilla said in a blog post, “There’s a long history of companies leveraging their control of devices and operating systems to tilt the playing field in favor of their own browser. This tilt manifests in a variety of ways. For example: making it harder for a user to download and use a different browser, ignoring or resetting a user’s default browser preference, restricting capabilities to the first-party browser, or requiring the use of the first-party browser engine for third-party browsers.”

Mozilla is now outlining these “tilts” in a new “Platform Tilt” issue tracker database, while encouraging other web browsers to publish their concerns in a similar fashion. The main purpose is to call more attention to how platforms like iOS and Windows favor their own web browser over the competition, which is useful information in the various antitrust legal actions against Apple, Microsoft, and other big tech companies.

There are ten issues listed with Apple, including the Apple App Store forbiding third-party browser engines, no option to import browser data on iPhone and iPad from other web browsers, and difficult beta testing. On Android, Mozilla points out it can’t import browser data, some features open Chrome instead of the default web browser, and Google search results on Android are worse.

Mozilla also highlighted three issues with Microsoft. The process for setting the default browser on Windows is still difficult, and some Windows features forcibly open links in Edge instead of the default web browser. Microsoft also reverts the default browser to Edge during some Windows setup interactions. Most of those issues were recently made illegal by the European Union, but Microsoft is free to continue doing them in other regions, like the United States.

The new database is a bit like Mozilla’s WebCompat project, which documents the problems that popular websites have in Firefox and other less-popular web browsers. However, instead of specific sites creating a worse experience for Firefox users, Platform Tilt is about software platforms creating a worse experience.

You can check out the full Platform Tilt database at the source link below. It will likely continue to be updated as Mozilla sorts through its issue trackers.

Amen. Weird how people feel the need to insert it into random places. Cant think of any TV show that got hit from that!

Always think its odd they want someone like this or this in the women’s washroom…

interesting chip, but since its faster but no more power efficient, not sure how usefull it will be for mobile devices. The Q3 already has problems with its battery life, if it had the XR2+ instead of the XR2, it would have even worse battery life!

I think thats the most likely. We know most prisons are a shit show, and he preferred to take the easy way out rather than face the rest of his life in prison.

Any surprise that a pedo is also a coward?

oof. yea, thats not a good sign.

Yea, if they say “we didnt know what that insinuated”, and there are no other dog whistles, I’m happy that they responded so well and quickly!

I think just changing it to “Infestation 1988” would have also been enough…

Though, “infestation 88” a game about killing nazis, would also work!
