I literally haven’t been paying enough attention to know who they’re playing again in the World Series, but I’m strongly rooting for it to go at least five games now.
Though in my particular case, being forced to throw the first pitch at the World Series would be one of those public humiliations that I have nightmares about. I’d probably show up naked just to distract from my throwing inabilities.
But seriously, congratulations to @chefjoseandres, who truly understands what “public service” actually means.

Oh my god, they actually changed the name of this movie. I demand an associate producer credit.
This production was largely shot on my block in Philly. They had a light pointed directly at my bedroom window every night for over a week.
Here’s a shot from the production. Spoiler alert: it’s apparently an action movie.

Another reason you aren’t supposed to take your phone into a SCIF.

nbcnews.com/politics/polit…
Just to be clear (there’s a lot of misconception here): SCIFs aren’t impenetrable faraday cages. The degree to which a SCIF has to have RF shielding depends on what will be in it (such as non-TEMPEST electronics that might have sensitive emissions). And even then, it depends.
So don’t bring your phone into a SCIF. But if you do, don’t be surprised if it rings while you’re there.

And whatever you do, don’t bring Rudy Giuliani into a SCIF. That’s just asking for trouble.

People telling me what a moron I am: what, exactly, do you expect me to do with this information?
I suppose I could take your comment to heart and acknowledge that I'm utterly unqualified to offer opinions on whatever topic you're reacting to, but I probably won't, because, as you yourself point out, I'm too stupid to do that.
So this is really just not actionable information at all for me. All it does is make me extra proud that I've managed to accomplish as much as I have given the severe limitations of my intellect that you've keenly observed.

1) In this morning's #PardonFlynnNow discussion we turn straight to #DreyfusFlynnInsights. We've arrived at the fateful moment in 1899, after almost five years in the famous Devil's Island prison. Dreyfus has been granted a retrial and lost.
2) This was good news! The sentence reduced his previous life in exile down to only 10 more years. And by the military court's rules the vote count of 5 - 2 was only one vote away from acquittal. Their rules gave a 4 - 3 ruling to the defendant. We'll go slow on that.
3) The French military court's structure was fair and just. An innocent man's suffering was due, not to the court's malfeasance, but its use by bad men of bad will. The court wasn't bad, its system wasn't bad. It was bad men using the system for bad purposes who caused such harm.

Let's do a Final Fantasy XIV thread. This is Pfil Buckwheat. We're going to go on an adventure to discover what a Final Fantasy MMO story is like. Because I heard it's actually pretty good.

But know what? I'm old. I don't have time for MMOs. We're gonna cheat! #FFXIV [THREAD]
That's right. I bought a level boost. I paid Square-Enix $17 to grind FOR me. Because I'm an adult. I don't have time to grind.

But I do want to experience the Final Fantasy XIV story.

I'm not ashamed of this decision. I'm proud of it. Let's do this. @FF_XIV_EN
I have to admit, though -- I don't really know what Job Quests are, but I am a little worried I'm missing out on something fun there.

Awed, humbled, proud (can I be all three at once?) to have these women & men behind me. And chilled & angry thinking about the ones who are not here - kicked off twitter for stating facts @jsoosty, Meghan Murphy, Posie Parker, Miranda Yardley, Venice Allen, Maria Maclachlan...
. @SamBarber1910 keeps the list of people (mainly women) suspended or banned from twitter for such wrongthink as quoting government statistics
If you werent aware of this, but were shocked by what has happened to me, this is your eye opener. So many people I talk to say 'the debate is toxic, both sides are bad', but Twitter is banning ppl for stating facts while allowing violent threats. These are not equals

This will be a story about dreams and expectations and apostasy and death in a bleached utopia, a standard white-picket-fence idyll other eyes can just as easily perceive as a passive-aggressive prison. Hi, and welcome to one obscure sepia-toned riverbend of the mortal coil. /1
My uncle today lies in an ICU in Ft. Collins, Colorado. He has lived a long & good life. He will live some more of it, just not sure how much. But this is not a maudlin mourning story, seeking rote condolence or prayer or whatev. It's a story about Wayne & his sister Shirley. /2
And me, to some degree, but, y'know, duh. I knew Shirley as Mom, a pious, puritanical, sometimes judgmental woman whom I disappointed quite a bit & loved dearly, if sometimes haltingly. Alzheimer's turned her brain to gunk starting 20 years ago but this isn't even about that. /3

Playing through Human Revolution again and oh god I forgot how long this game's intro is. And also how much longer I'm probably going to make it.

Kusanagi has augmentations, eh? You don't say.
I always felt conflicted about the environmental clutter in this game. It helps spaces like Megan's office feel more lived-in, but a lot of it is frustratingly static, very 'look, don't touch'. Not a great design philosophy for a supposed immersive sim.
Detail like this that runs skin-deep just blurs together after a while. You single out the one crate or computer or newspaper you're allowed to interact with, and everything else is just so much noise
