That's what I've been saying for years. It's an entirely different activity that happens to involve blankly staring at a screen

And I thought I was dramatic for always playing that one sad song on the crank-string instrument as everyone logs out

What's the plagiarism machine, AI/LLM chatbots?

Should we take LNG jobs to support coal jobs? Oh, wait, nevermind, if coal went full production overnight they'd only add about 10,000 jobs to the USA because of how heavily automation has been developed for coal mines.

Yeah, they're not going to suddenly gain $50k+ cash for a down-payment to replace their home. Yes, a mortgage should be cheaper than rent but a renter probably can't save an extra 3 year's worth of rent to put it down.

I'm curious how this is playing out. A fair number of details are present on the game's item already. The barrel stripe, the upside-down spade with a circular element, and the barrel spade.

That's not to deny the direct copy of this specific design, but rather ask how much can an independent artist claim on what appears to already largely part of what already exists within the game's IP.

That being said, the reddit thread where the artist posted this originally has an edit stating Bungie reached out, handled it well, and will be sharing details later.

Defense contractors specialize in reading and meeting bid spec and not a millimeter more.

Kids are going to love it because they can finally draw the correct hoodline without changing anything about their bad art skills. Lowering the education standard yet again! I bet the next gen will come with a 2 foot lift to match the kids' terribly engineered suspensions too!

They typically sink and they don't have that particular scent component. Apparently, I've been living with bad info on buoyancy apparently because a couple decades Oprah said it's supposed to float. As for fat intake, I cycle on and off with keto (high fat, low carb) but can't say these farts occur during keto. I would also note it's some scent very specific to Wendy's nugs that I don't smell anywhere else. Maybe it's just a particular spice? It's not present in the fries so I don't think it's specifically the oil. I appreciate your educated guess. I was hoping literally anyone else would have this experience. My wife concurs about the similarity of smells but the production is solely my talent.

Which is the chemical responsible for the overlap in smells between some of my farts and Wendy's chicken nuggets? Help me Booty-wan, you're my only hope

And yet, somehow, I've very recently seen a video of someone actually farting into a bath jar.

I was ready to say no, that's just Ford Transit but couldn't find conclusive evidence to confirm the minute body lines match a Ford and not a Mercedes Sprinter (my local variant). I went for one last attempt and searched "ford transit usps" and what do you know, we're both right to some degree. The back vehicle is an electric Ford Transit and the USPS has ordered over 9,000 units. It's not the "electric version" but rather a competitor to the Oshkosh lineup, which is the front truck. The Oshkosh NGDV is available as both gas and battery-electric.
