I actually almost feel bad for Musk. He thought he'd finally found a group that he could buy the love and respect that he's always craved from, but then found out even he doesn't have enough money for that purchase.

Yeah, it's from 2019. The original article the bitly link went to is gone but it's still on archive

Read the article, the answer turns out to be "We're pretty sure it helps and the vaccine is safe for pregnant women, so why not?"

Even before reading the article I'm gonna guess the answer is the "exact opposite".

I never knew "volitile" was a synonym for "senile" or "insane"

You can if you put your foot waaaay up in there. Then it's like you have a pair of bunny slippers that murder anything near your feet.

That was my first thought after reading the quoted text "Wait the stuff from the Star Trek reboot?"

I remember some time after 9/11 my dad commented "It's interesting to watch a nation go insane in real time" He died early 2019 and I feel kinda sad that I can't tell him that the post 9/11 hysteria was just actually just a thimble full of insanity compared to what was coming.

I've tried to quit breathing, but it seems that I'm addicted.

God, somehow I've gotten use to the rambling comb-over geriatric (probably due to his first term). But Mush twitching and hovering in the background like a meth-head reject from Innsmouth is a whole new layer of disturbing.

So... I'm guessing China has had a bad year for fishing?

 

Since there is no thread about this on Lemmy, I figured I may as well make one in case someone hadn't heard about it.

Anyway, a new app called Netpass has been released that allows Streetpass over the internet. The app is still kinda rough, a few games like Tomodachi Life have a minor bugs, but for the most part it works almost exactly like if you conventionally streetpassed someone.

 

So I was browsing SteamDB.info looking at the various games on sale when I noticed there were a bunch of games (usually from the publisher Hede, but there's quite a few others) listed as having a discount in the high nineties, yet still costing in the neighborhood of 30-50 dollars. Even odder when I go to the game's Steam, it's not listed as being on sale and costs the... "normal" price of $99.99.

I'm just wondering A) What the scam is here, B) How a SteamDB.info is getting $99.99 dollar game as costing 30-ish dollars when it's 97% off but at the same time it's apparently not actually on sale?
