    IN REMEMBRANCE--2025

    Only in Europe, though. There’s still at least 2 MTV (all) music channels operating in the USA: MTV University (MTV:U) and MTV Classic.

    Cheap Eats?

    There’s a place about 15 minutes drive away from me called Ham & Eggs. I don’t know if they’re particularly inexpensive or not, but they certainly DON’T skimp on portions. You SHOULD NEVER go there thinking you’re going to clean your plate unless you’re a competitive eater. Their stack or 3...

    I gave you an upvote, but I’m struggling to see the upside beyond that you’re employed!

    How Does AI Affect Your Online Shopping?

    A human is probably a more sustainable use of resources for that task. That’s without raising the specter of AI introducing its own errors into the process.

    How Does AI Affect Your Online Shopping?

    Yes. Hence the “mostly”. FWIW, I’m a damn good proofreader & editor, tried by fire. But when it matters, I always try to find a second set of eyes to look at MY stuff.

    How Does AI Affect Your Online Shopping?

    Sorry if I’m being dense, but this mostly sounds like what decent word processors have been doing for ages without AI (at least, as the current discussion goes). If so, isn’t using AI- and all the resources it requires- for this purpose kind of like hunting mosquitoes with B2 bombers?* *...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Are they following in your academic footsteps?

    Games You Rarely See Played "Correctly"

    Then my Tick-inspired PC in the GURPS: V:tM playtest was probably one the designers would have liked! Because as silly as he was, he was also like 55 gallon drum of nitroglycerin. Pushed the wrong way, and he was likely able to destroy most of the PCs and NPCs in the setting. Only by the...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Unfortunately, I don’t know what happened to the plagiarist after getting failed in that course. As I recall, the events in question happened while my friend was teaching at a military academy, and that would be grounds for immediate expulsion. It’s possible, though, that those events got them...

    In many ways, yes. In many ways, no. (Both sides of my family tree are nutty enough to be orchards unto themselves.)

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    In all honesty, it was stupider than I’ve made it out to be. Her dad was well known enough that the surname should have at least begged the question of familial relationship. But besides the family name in common, she occasionally taught from his books. AND she got her undergraduate degree...

    Culinarily & flavor-wise, it looks like there would be a lot of crossover.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    Another classic example! Tangentially, one of my friends followed in her father’s footsteps, and has become a respected professor in the same field he became notable in. AFAIK, she’s still using her maiden name in a professional context. One of her students turned in a final paper that...

    Games You Rarely See Played "Correctly"

    FWIW, when I was playtesting GURPS: V:tM, my character was, in fact, based on a superhero. The Tick.

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    A true classic! One of my favorites.
