Fahhhhk, thank you.
I swear I remembered dog people from 2nd edition and was super confused when I started playing DDO and they were some kind of dragonkin. Then people who started with 3rd were telling me kobolds had always been lizards.
Somewhere my old 2nd edition books are still around in a box, but damned if I know where.
Aside from one (seemingly very out of place at the time) early mention that the author used Bitcoin, there was no hint of it being pro-bitcoin until the very, very end.
I found it to be a very worthwhile article right up until that point and even slightly intriguing from an academic perspective after that point.
I despise the endless blind parroting of the typical cryptobro refrains elsewhere on the Internet when crypto is brought up and I still liked the article, so I wouldn’t write it off just because one guy with a cryptohammer inevitably sees the very real SMTP problem as a cryptonail in the end. It’s natural when you have a “solution in search of a problem” situation like we do with crypto (and block chain, and for that matter SharePoint. People with knowledge of a thing often try to use it to solve problems it probably wasn’t meant for.)
I heard Jack O’Neill and Teal’c in my head on this one.
J: Well, tell him unless he cools it, I’m going to throw down!
T: Have you eaten something that does not agree with you, O’Neill?
J: What?
T: Is your digestive system experiencing discomfort?
Daniel Jackson: Yeeeah, this is probably my fault, I explained the euphemism “throwing up” to Teal’c last night after Sam’s bout in the infirmary and I’m guessing he thinks the reverse means
J: No!
J: I’m perfectly… Continent.
This is awesome hahahahahaha
It’s rare that an actor is SO good in a villain role that I see their face on something else and have a negative gut reaction years later.
Ronnie Cox made Senator Kinsey INCREDIBLY memorably hateable.
Honestly I think the abject cowardice did the most for me in that regard. Cox really sold every last bit of that part, down to the disbelief on being told no.
Whoa.
Greetings other C:tD players!
Better hope your dump stat wasn’t charisma, then!

Wisdom is knowing not to put a tomato in a fruit salad.
Charisma is being able to sell a tomato based fruit salad."
I was under the impression that, by definition, blended chickpeas were only one ingredient in hummus.
I thought in order to qualify as hummus it had to have blended chickpeas, tahini ( which is just blended sesame seeds, IIRC), oil, and lemon juice.
I literally never bought pb that isn’t 100% peanuts. Sometimes with a bit of salt. Stop buying junk.
It’s not automatically “junk”, it’s flavored.
It just happens to be the most popular flavor in the U.S.
I like my spicy red pepper hummus, other people like their extra-oil-and-sugar smooth consistency non-separating peanut butter.
It’s like the difference between corn flakes and frosted flakes.
I think it’s a combination of all of the reasons you stated AND the sorting algorithm not being the same as some of us are used to on Reddit.
I’m still getting used to finding content I haven’t seen when I’m not toggled to “Subscribed”.
A way to mark something as “read” and not have it show back up for me unless I’ve posted in it would be handy, but as with all new paradigms, I’ll get used to this one eventually and likely wonder how I ever did things the “old way”.
You’ve ruined your own lands, you’ll not ruin mine!
