Oh, up front costs are less, long term costs would be much more.

Not really. Putin’s negotiations have consistently been in bad faith and leads to more aggression.

While I would love for actual diplomacy to work, it seems to be viewed as weakness by folks like him.

Man, I wish talking would work.

I may or may not have found that women hugged me longer and smelled my hair if I used something the smelled good. I also used conditioner with my long hair and had many women running their fingers through it.

It was nice. Short hair is so much easier, though.

I’ve taken care of too many toddlers, I guess to trust that.

But I have taken care of too many toddlers to trust that they keep it on consistently, as well.

Anyone against this has never been the parent of a rambunctious, suicidal toddler. Those little buggers are fast and deadly curious.

I used it on airplane mode for 6 weeks, not realizing it was still on that. So, not really?

And all my installers are backed up as well, so the publishers don’t try to screw me. May not help with them all, but oh well.

I won’t buy Nintendo products anymore.

Gawd, I hate that aftertaste.

All of Putins homes. All at once.

Kind of like slashdot modding of yore? I don’t recall if they still do it, but they had multiple positive and negative tags for moderation.

Ooh. Dunno about the adaptation side of things. I will say that I read the damned thing all in one night. Had to stay home from classes after doing so. Good book, to say the least.

I think they are buying carve outs for the tariffs

Yah. Mine just has full on knife wounds from that.
