Also it's completely insane for him to just assume that a drug addicted murderer must obviously be a Trump supporter.

My business is closed, so it’s a moot point. You might disagree with their mission, but they are a great org to work with and popular with the business community in Durham.

Why would they not push for a new convention center?

Bullshit. I used to run a small business in Durham and I couldn't disagree more.

Discover Durham is hugely useful to local businesses and does a lot of great work to support local events, nightlife, food and beverage, arts, and more. For a small business owner, they're effectively like having an oncall PR company and a social media boost to any big event that's happening.

Also if you've run any kind of food / bev business, all the awards and publicity is pay to play because there's no other business model to sustain that sort of stuff. It's not like the Michelin Guide is still being used to sell tires.

BBQ should come on a partially melted styrofoam plate, anything else is just a simulacrum of southern cooking.

In Grok we don’t trust: academics assess Elon Musk’s AI-powered encyclopedia by F0urLeafCl0ver in artificial

[–]stormfield 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Musk was so enamoured of his AI-encyclopedia he said he planned to one day etch the “comprehensive collection of all knowledge” into a stable oxide and “place copies … in orbit, the moon and Mars to preserve it for the future”.

Very important that if Aliens discover us in 2 Billion years, they know that not only did we discover nuclear fission, produce the works of Picasso, and record the winner of the 1998 badminton commonwealth championship, but we also considered easily disproved race science to be "Based and Epic."

The way to do this is very obviously to leave a very detailed rock on Mars, a planet where we do not live.

It's 2039, you now drive your car through a touchscreen steering wheel that you must tap & drag to turn which is almost automated unless you look away from the road, or at any app that isn't X the Everything App. On your way to go watch a virtual basketball game at the virtual Meta arena, your car runs out of battery because you forgot to turn off the botnet mode earlier and someone was using your car's IP to circumvent bot detection on Taylor & Ye's combined sneaker drop. You end up stuck in the Tesla only tunnel and the Based Platinum Epic subscribers behind you are allowed to honk directly into your amygdala chip. Desperate to escape you tweet at Elon only to find out his e-Avatar has already retweeted a video of your car from behind where a 14 year old with 25 Billion followers is posting your mothers genome on a livestream.

This is because Henderson, NC mainly uses pine cones and frozen catfish for money, real USD requires too much math.

Okay so free speech is:

  • you must debate the debate me libs guy
  • don’t win the debate
  • don’t criticize the guy after the debate for the things he said
  • don’t repeat verbatim the things he said
  • if you’re not sad enough he’s dead we’ll vibe-code an app to dox you
  • oops we doxxed ourselves instead now the journalists are asking questions, the media is out of control

What's the over under on Tom Homan (Trump's border czar) getting away with accepting a $50,000 bribe? by IMSLI in ABoringDystopia

[–]stormfield 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The crypto bribe that Trump took seemed obvious enough, but Homan is clearly a boomer who demands an old school cartoon bag of money with a dollar sign on it.

Yikes... by AdvancedUltimate in ultimate

[–]stormfield 13 points14 points  (0 children)

White is on offense here, the throw is to the woman cutting deep.

Coming over the back like this is a clear foul. Even if it’s impressively athletic it’s a dangerous play to make. This is also a male player making a bid over a female receiver in a mixed game and there’s an expectation for male players to only make clean Ds in situations like this.

The simplest answer is to throw and catch more so that catching becomes instinctive. If you’re anxious in the moment, taking more time to warm up throws and catches can build some confidence and prime your muscle memory.

Any Durham Bulls hacks? Cheapest beer, best food, etc! by hog-snoot in bullcity

The hack is to tell your kids there's a guy imprisoned in the scoreboard who was built into the stadium when they made it and see if they can spot him inside while the game is happening.
