@HashtagGriswold@foomper My grandfather was clinically dead twice and his second experience he described as being in Hell.
He actually did turn his life around afterwards so it doesn't matter to me whether it was real. It was real enough to him.
@rcjparry@ScottGreenfield So when I point to the January 6th rioters all getting a pardon, you're going to come up with some justification as to why they don't count, right?
@HistoryBoomer The first Conan story has a scene where assassins come to kill King Conan. One of the assassins is a philosopher who was a great critic of Conan.
Conan begs him to reconsider: He doesn't want to kill a well spoken critic. He values him too much.
Conan got it... Why can't we?
@bugler@HistoryBoomer Great, more for us.
Another side benefit is Oreos are also vegan, so gluten free Oreos are a great backup snack for special dietary needs when we do volunteer stuff at the elementary school. The kids definitely have no complaints.

But what if that first line you're holding up is a stealth edit in response to people rightly condemning the article?

@ScottGreenfield How sure are you of that statistic? Someone being reporting as "having broadband access" and actually being able to get something one would describe as broadband internet aren't always the same thing.
@EsotericCD Similar vein: There's a novel series (and anime) from Japan called GATE, which deals with "What would happen if the JSDF went to a fantasy world with modern military hardware to stop it from invading Japan"
@jbarro You know, I didn't understand why Ken was complaining about people running to him to "correct" you. Until now. You obviously need to be stopped.
@wittmer0313@opendna@IPAzRGR8@billybinion Qualified immunity *literally only exists* to protect police officers who violate rights. That is all it does. If they did not violate rights in the case, *they would not need qualified immunity*. So if you got QI in a lawsuit, you DID violate someone's rights. And got let off.
@G_CURLEY@callumborchers@WSJ Got invited to a "new hire lunch" with the head of software engineering at my site. Was catered. Was great. Good guy, good food, learned some useful stuff. Met fellow new hires.
Don't see what a CEO has to offer.
@G_CURLEY@callumborchers@WSJ A one time thing? Maybe. Probably not, though. Every week? No way. Especially not when I'm working remotely. Double especially since HQ involves a plane ride.
If I was in the office already I might stop by, but frankly don't see the point.
Especially not *this* guy.
