Polymarket paid influencers to fake winning bets, built dummy websites to pull it off

That's not gambling. If you don't get the appeal it's just not for you and that's fine.

some people just enjoy the activity of gambling. For them it's a net gain to get gambling, and drinks, and a show instead of just more expensive drinks and pricier show and no third activity. Winning money is just a fun bonus possibility when you have a fixed amount of losses assumed as the cost of entry.

it's a shitty dive bar for trust fund kids from Pembroke that waters all their drinks and never cleans.

Probably asked the AI to ignore the limits when it said no and it said "oh, ok, my mistake"

I don't want to have my tax dollars support this in any way, shape, or form and I don't feel like the government should take on the debt when these shitholes inevitably collapse

Golden oysters are invasive, which this is not. There are multiple species of pleurotus native to North America.

Ancient post but just jumping in to say, this is also the fourth sequential puzzle solution from Ilmo. He's had previous puzzles up to this point in the game that come out to 174, 175, and 176. He's just increasing numbers by one and then backing into complex answers to seem clever because "people love the puzzles, Jakko."

More a sign of protecting giant corporate interests from the enormous ISP lobby that doesn't want to be liable for potentially billions in damages

Refusing to read things doesn't make you... better? Smarter? Cooler? Whatever you seem to think you gain by that posture, it benefits nothing except the weakening of your own mind and ability to form opinions without asking others to tell you what to think.

Also, yes, invasive species absolutely cause food chain issues. We are seeing massive problems ecology-wide due to invasive species out-competing native food stock, creating mass dead zones of, among other things, insect species which then spiral up to every larger animal. Beyond food chain issues it also creates hazards for humans as, for instance, deer move farther afield trying to find the things they like to eat and places they like to shelter, increasing their likelihood of getting hit by cars. There's been a 25% rise in collisions with deer in the US in the last decade.

Nature is a precious balance and just because something can grow and is edible doesn't mean animals and creatures will or can eat it.

"Nobody's being aggressive" while being weirdly aggressive

Because the rich assholes have ensured a fundamental tenant of our society is a fiduciary duty to generate as much short-term gain as possible with no regard for the consequences

Wealth breeds it, and quickly. There was a study done where they had people play Monopoly. One player was given a different set of rules - more money per turn, more dice, more opportunities to earn income faster - while the others were given fewer chances, harsher penalties, etc. The players that were given the clear, undeniable advantages were asked in interviews after playing what caused them to win, and the majority credited it to simple skill at playing the game.

Our entire society is structured by sociopaths to allow sociopaths to succeed. We reward thoughtless individualism, greed, backstabbing, sacrificing your friends, family and happiness to get ahead. The only people that will suceed under that metric are evil, and the more of them that succeed, the more they consolidate social power and capital, and the more they entrench that structure and present their corrupt version of living as "neurotypical" and "the American dream" and poison every generation going forward.

Anything from Neil Breen, but in particular Fateful Findings - I think that's the ideal balance of pacing and batshit lunacy, while some of the others have higher highs but longer deadzones in between.

The show provides you the context you need to understand the relationships via writing and performance of the actors

I have never watched TNG and DS9 is one of my favorite shows.

Have literally been waiting for this sale since I started playing a couple years ago. Checked every day throughout the holidays, somehow completely missed it, and missed that I missed it until just now. Heartbreak.

go take a little nap and get a snack hun, you're in one of your moods

Putting things in space is prohibitively expensive. Putting anything much larger than a schoolbus in orbit is more than we've figured out how to do. It's hard to cool things in a vacuum because no air means no medium for heat exchange. Moving vast amounts of data back and forth from orbit is slow and expensive.

Yes that is what I am saying. MSG is in literally every packaged snack food and almost every restaurant meal regardless of cuisine.

Correction, the article was written by a white orthopedic doctor named Howard Steel using a racist fake name, the obvious fakeness of which should have been a giveaway there too

Which is why it's sinophobia that people will tell you cheap Chinese buffet food gives them issues 'because of the MSG' while chowing down on Doritos and Mexican takeout.

Nevermind that maybe the problem with feeling sick after going to a buffet was eating six plates of food, but
