You can also do this in Gmail natively by using a plus sign instead of the hyphen. E.g. myemail+newsletter@gmail.com will deliver, as the plus and everything between it and the @ are ignored. This may work on other platforms too.

Or, as mentioned in another comment, you can do this easily with a domain you own. Although you may get the occasional call from a merchant validating that StoreName@mydomain.com is an actual order.

Yeah, their espresso is also roasted to death.

The important part is it lets you plug in a mouse and keyboard, which allows for much faster and more accurate response times.

You are correct that they can just route through authorized boards or spoof that they are one.

Usually that's an "and", not an "or".

You press for 12 hours after thawing? Mine always seems to have given up as much liquid as it can after 30 minutes if I've frozen it.

I have a suspicion that all of the layers of "Elon management" at Tesla and SpaceX have given him the idea that he's a brilliant innovator; he gives them all his outlandish ideas and they get filtered into (normally) reasonable plans, and they guide him down the path they want him to go down while he thinks the good idea is his. And those companies are both doing well, so clearly his style works, at least in his mind.

But then he bought twitter, which didn't have anyone devoted to protecting the company from him, and it's all going to shit.

Ahh, so less "hard to believe" and more "unpleasant to believe", that's fair.

Yeah, Dave ate my entire weekend. Some issues, but great game overall.

There's a very specific type of "free speech" that he's fighting for.

There are three drinks you can call a martini:

  • A martini is gin and vermouth, maybe with some bitters if you like
  • A vodka martini is vodka and vermouth, bitters again optional
  • A vesper martini is gin, vodka, and lillet blanc
  • Any of the above can be made "dirty" with olive brine if you want

Anything else is a cocktail in a martini glass. No shade if you like apple schnapps, lemon juice, and vodka, drink what you like, but it's not a martini.

I strongly disagree with the premise of this article, that it's a tough choice. Appeasement doesn't work. Target pulling merch just tells the domestic terrorists that threats work.

A bunch of my favorites have already been listed, so I'll just mention the one that wasn't: Antichamber, a first person puzzle game that's probably somewhat like Portal in terms of how it requires you to rethink your assumptions about how space works, but it's a very different game, both mechanically and in tone. I don't want to give away too much, but it's a mix of weirdly unsettling elements (although it is by no means a horror game), a design that's actively trolling you in ways that will make you laugh, and mechanics revelations that will have you scream "Wait, I could have done that this whole time?!" It's one of those games that I wish I could delete from my memory and play for the first time again.
