The difference is that my ad blocker is quick and painless to set up, where TiVo involved some capital and planning.

So… Joe Biden is America’s Thin Blue Line?
With the limited size of our domestic population, it always blows me away that there are enough Canadians living in countries like Lebanon to populate a small city.
Has UW never met Barbara Streisand before?
Well, I’d say that trust in the police and the 911 system is also at an all-time low, which could result in fewer crimes being reported to them.
Not that I think it’s actually a significant enough amount to account for the notable reported decrease, but you asked….
There was a time when I could joke “what do the other two do?” but I think inflation has long since caught up.
But wait… didn’t China say the re-education camps were a hoax, that Muslims have the same rights as everyone else in China, and that any issues they’d been having had already been resolved?
That’s how epistemological analysis works… if the general structure is the same but everyone pulls different meaning out of an event, something probably happened. If everything lines up exactly, someone probably faked the letters. If there’s totally conflicting stories, the record has been tampered with too much to say anything. If there’s no record, there’s nothing to say one way or another.
You realize that a significant portion of the bible is the collected letters and works that were at the time (that it was assembled) considered credible, right?
There’s a period of around 80 years that’s pretty hard to account for, but unlike the four gospels where there’s little corroborating evidence that tracks back into that 80 year period, the epistolary works are pretty likely to be authentic. They also reference a bunch of other letters that didn’t survive, something that tends to make them more likely authentic than not. And they involve people who were eyewitnesses of a man named Jesus (or Joshua or Yeshua if you prefer) and his younger (step) brothers.
The rest of the statements about him were solidified by 80 years or so after his death, but all the accounts don’t quite line up — which is actually a good argument for them being based on actual events.
So while there may be plenty of room for debate as to how much of the biblical teachings actually originated with a man named Jesus, his actual existence seems more evident than, say, Shakespeare.
Sorry, but I prefer those radical government policies that were considered mainstream 40 years ago.
And the trestle bridge was coated in creosote, so good luck totally putting it out until it cools down.
Basically, people are more aware of how they, personally, are affected by the economy.
The economy in general is doing better, but the majority of citizens are able to apply less and less of that to the things they value, and they see more and more of it being funnelled to the already wealthy.
Put it behind a PiHole that drops all traffic to Microsoft servers?
That took some figuring on my part of where they put it — it’s right on top of the old playground, beside the commemorative plaque, between the end of the parking lot and the ponds.
This isn’t the park’s first foray into rubber; they already put in an outdoor fitness facility slightly downriver when the park was newer, using the same surface material.
It looks like to be named the “tallest play structure” they cheated and put a cone on top — I was trying to figure out how it was taller than tha Terra Nova Rural Farm Playground in Richmond — the height seems the same (same slide) but the Richmond structure doesn’t have the cone on top.
I had an issue right when Google started their forced ads thing. It made me suspect uBlock wasn’t updating correctly; manual reinstall and no more issues since.
Perfect Dad joke material….
Terrorists need funding. Doing so is illegal, and can show up in tax filings.
I remember when I had to set my VCR to record a program I wanted to watch; if YouTube gets that bad, I’ll just do the same thing; pre-record the video stream and skip the commercials.
