Nice! Things seem to be working well, so far. Great work.

If piefed is different than lemmy, should there be different functionality for piefed instances that one signs into from Thunder?

Look at all the peasants with no arrs.

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 managed about thirty seconds of that. I don’t know, it didn’t feel like rock, or classic.

Mushy peas innit?

I think that was the joke.

Churchill, wasn’t it?

Fun fact. People from the UK who lived there while BSE was a thing cannot donate blood in the US, pretty much ever.

I think I understand your concern, but how do you very briefly describe what’s happening a better way?

Schools in the US are “free”, although they are generally funded by taxes. I think if you said to most people that society benefits from a good basic education for everyone, they would agree.

If you said that should apply to higher education, it doesn’t sound like too much of a stretch.

If you then said “we should have the same standard of education and funding for the entire nation”, many people would say “No way”, because America, and that would mean centralized funding and standards and stuff. It’s always that last part.

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.

Makes perfect sense to me. It’s generally acknowledged that
