In Chicago hit Frontera Grill for mexican.

Biscuits and gravy are great. I'm not sure where to get good ones that far north. Make sure you get a side of bacon. I've never had bacon done properly outside the US.

Find some good bbq.

Peanut butter is american. It's hard to find anywhere else. Get some at the grocery store and put it on toast or make a sandwich.

American style Chinese food. It's it's own thing now.

The DS9 writers would sometimes write a script that they knew would be approved and then give the actors "suggested improvised lines" for what they actually wanted.

I always took his reluctance being about the report he was going to have to make about the incident.

Yeah the problem isn't the ideals being in there but how bad the story is makes the ideals seem like a cheap crutch.

Compare Brokeback Mountain to Ben and Arthur. Both movies about the relationship between gay men and society. Both say gay people should be treated fairly by socity but aren't. The first does it in interesting way with great storytelling and ideas. The later is a hamfisted mess.

I'm not going to say modern Trek is Ben and Arthur bad but it is much closer to Ben and Arthur writing then it is to Brokeback Mountain.

Having dealt with Sony for years as a engineer their non consumer hardware is a true pain. Trying to interface with some of their ccd image sensors was some of the most PITA integration i've ever dealt with.

Not good but fun describes most of the full moon movies. Their movies were a staple of my teenage years. They also did puppet master, dollman, meridian, and trancers.

counter indicator.

I wasn't old enough but am glad I saw it (kinda). What is old enough for that movie anyway? Has anybody lived that long?

Getting groups to go along with your stupid minor lies is the first step. That way when you start doing the bigger important lies they are already used to just going along with your lies.

This is straight from the authoritarian play book and Trump is not doing this without purpose.

Your right. I thought the shares had be dissolved but they have not it's just a privately traded company now.

So Musk owns twitter so there is no stock anymore. He does have loans for the purchase which are probably backed by his twitter ownership and his Tesla stock.

However there is another way to not have majority ownership and still have majority voting power. Google has class A and class B shares. Each class A share gets 10 votes and class B shares get 1 vote.

Only the founders of Google got class A shares and if they are transferred to anyone but another founder they revert to class B shares. So they have a minority ownership and a majority vote.

So yeah the bird was me. But back in the day there was linux with a bunch of config files and windows with the registry.

It could be a pain to deal with config files but it was nowhere near as bad a dealing with the gigantic mess that was the windows registry. So someone trying to move linux away from one of the things that made it better then windows to a windows like system seemed like a horrible idea.

Combine that with the main systemd guy coming off as a bit of a jerk online and the resistance is understandable.
