LA court to address whether Nick Reiner can use trust to pay for murder defense
Using your inheritance from your murdered parents to defend yourself against charges of murdering your parents is some chicken / egg shit.

Macron bans ‘illegitimate‘ protests in France as he tries to get a grip on unrest
Ah, yes. Telling protestors that their protests are illegitimate. Always a fool-proof way to de-escalate a situation.

Tesla 'Cannot Guarantee' Roadster Reservation Holders Will Ever Get a Car
Not to mention the "flight" capable model is purchasable by invitation only.
Just like the previous Roadster, this will never see the light of day.

Vampires as a playable archetype in a free text-only MUD (early alpha, adults only 18+)
Super excited to see a new MUD.
Equal amounts of disappointment to see that it's an LLM slopfest.

greebles!!
Forgiveness for my pedantry, but pretty sure a greeble (or greeblie) is the individual plastic details that they would glue on to create the texture, not the texture itself.
You wouldn't say a texture is "greeble".
Edit - and if you're talking 3d modeling, greebling is done during sculpting, it's not a texturing step.

‘Dungeons & Dragons 2’: John Francis Daley & Jonathan Goldstein Optimistic Their Sequel Will Find New Studio After Paramount Passed
I hope so. The first one was better and more accurate to D&D than we had any right to expect out of a major movie. Another one would be awesome.

Conservatives laughing at lazy spoiled poor kids and suggest sending them Cuba or Iran
Said the same week as RFK once again floats the idea of institutionalizing the disabled.
These are not off-the-cuff comments. Somewhere behind the veneer of stupidity, more and more members of the current government are pushing the need to imprison or conscript larger and larger swathes of the US population.

Examples of roles where actors from Star Trek give better performances than they did on Star Trek?
Walter Koenig was a great Chekov, but his role as Bester the PsyCop from Babylon 5 was a more nuanced role that gave him way more to do.

Mamdani’s ‘tax the rich’ slogan is ‘just as hateful’ as racial slurs, New York real estate titan says
Sorry, Richie Rich, but people don't get to choose their race. You, conversely, could have chosen not to be a soulless currency hoarder.
Nothing wrong with hating a person for things they did voluntarily.

Opinion: It's not just hopium: People really are leaving MAGA
Ex-MAGA are welcome to join hands and support each other and pat each other on the back for their newfound clearheaded Democratic fervor, but keep it the hell away from me.
Platforming a virulent racist for the last 10 years and cheering his attempts to destroy our country isn't in the "Oops, sorry!" class of mistakes.
Good on you for opening your eyes. Now fuck off.

Paperweight / conversation starter. As long as you know it's not real, it's just a cool chunk of brass.

Can't find a decent math sub so asking here. If we killed all bad billionaires or all the 1%. How much would America clear it's debt or how much could be given to taxpayers?
None, because their corporations exist as separate legal entities that own their own assets, and their personal wealth would go to their next of kin.
The way to get the wealth out of the hands of the wealthy is to tax them, or to remove the legal system that would keep their wealth in their family when they die.

I love that the Speak with Dead NPCs voices gradually get less gravelly and intense as the DM gets more and more tired of doing the voice. By the last guy his voice is just talking normally.

Easily 90° in the berthing spaces, guaranteed. All that body heat in a metal box with the sun beating on it? No fucking thanks. It got up to 80° in the boat when I was in the Gulf, and I was in a submarine.
