Hasn't made it to re-entry burn yet. That's scheduled for about 40 minutes from now. Is supposed to land around 10 pm New Mexico time. Or about 2 hours from now.

Unfortunately that plays well to a lot of stupid people. And in swing states there are enough of them that he can still get another EC win while losing the popular vote by a lot.

That's funny because I saw some initial comments made which then started this discussion. And what you're suggesting was the intent. The issue as they (one of Lemmy's developers) said was essentially frustration that their echo chamber had been pierced.

Yep. Thanks to this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TAS2R38

Essentially researchers have figured out some of us got a double dose of the ability to taste bitterness. We're not just being babies when it comes to not eating some vegetables. They literally do taste vile to us. I don't like coffee, dark chocolate, beer or wine either.

Hell just the smell of broccoli or brussel sprouts makes me gag.

I'd make that deal for cruciferous vegetables specifically. I'm one of the people for which they taste absolutely disgusting regardless of preparation or attempts to mask the flavor.

But you can't have my peppers. Love me some spicy food.

It does seem different. Hard to say exactly why with only using it every couple years. Wondering if there is more lag time for uploads.

Nah I definitely want both. My current hobbies are expensive. My dream hobby of getting a pilots license and a small plane would be really expensive.

Bullshit. I subscribe to the idea he's funneling money through the PAC back to Twitter to boost ad buy numbers.

Thanks for the heads up. Recently took mine out of storage. Setting up a game room now that my kids are old enough to trust them. Did an SSD upgrade the other day. Will look into the chip issue.
