Although a Govt project costing $150k is pretty good value.
Agreed; considering it's cheap and not too potentially destructive, it's a good way to keep the fucking bureaucrats occupied and busy so they don't think up anything even dumber.
Well, yeah... but like raw intelligence, they don't exactly tend to be skillsets that you develop remedially... but getting bureaucrats or school administrators to comprehend this... well, it's recursive.;)
Holy shit: that was the very first computer program I ever used; my dad's ham friend would load it up off cassette for me and I'd play for hours while the adults got fucked up and played Mahjong.. 1977?
the educational game will teach players business skills including emotional intelligence and cognitive flexibility, as well as critical thinking and creativity
I'm fucking brilliant and an abrasive asshole; not trying to toot my own horn (I'm just as flawed and miserable as the next fuck, I suspect) but you may as well get it right if you're going to bother at all.;)
They do it depending upon why they became a vegetarian: if you quit eating meat because you were grossed out by it, you hardly want to be reminded of it let alone eat an actual deliberate imitation. However, if you still love or crave meat yet wish to avoid it for some other reason, these products have more appeal.
Worse, when you read the fucking ingredients, they're full of inflammatory grains and legumes containing toxic anti-nutrients (phytins and lectins: plants' biodefenses). I relied on the delicious, metabolism-destroying "Standard Vegetarian Diet" for over twenty years before I learned that I needed to give up the grains, beans, eggs and dairy... and the improvements to my health have been truly profound (although the
choices available to me as a 'carb-based paleo vegan' are usually limited to "fruit, fruit, kale or kimchee," the cravings for unhealthy shit are through the roof, my carcass clearly benefits so I try to stick to it).
I went to a steak house with a vegetarian friend and he was able to get something he liked. I went with him to a vegetarian one and I went out drunk, because I could eat nothing
This is entirely the opposite of how that cliche plays out, for the simple reason that while a lot of steakhouses might only have a single fucking item (like a side salad) that isn't either prepared with or alongside their meat dishes, everything on the fucking menu at a vegetarian joint is still an option for the meat eater.
Yoyr problem isn't the lack of options generally available at vegetarian joints; your problem is simply that you're clearly a fucking moron and likely an unreasonable and abrasive twat.
The Incisors and Canines in your mouth evolved primarily for eating meat,
The thing is, though, that if you were quoting from the last hundred plus years of anthropological observation and concensus, you'd be repeating that stuff and not just some gibberish that laypeople repeat to one another in the echo chamber because it sounds right.
Hint: that stuff you said? It wasn't that other stuff.;)
Form can be pleasing but function is all that truly matters; those who prefer the former over the latter are braindead zombies and should be regarded accordingly.
It's a shame to see you besmirch the good name of your buddy with your silly username... but I suppose I'd feel differently if you'd ever typed anything interesting...
These frequencies (like the 38GHz that Verizon bought Straight Path to get) have been used for point to point links very sparingly over the last few decades
Tell me about it; the Russians have been doing this to us (and us to them, and everyone to everyone else) for so long that I'm sick of it; obviously implementing proper security isn't the way to go about this anymore.
Definitely not old enough to know that slang like "killing it" is perfectly fine in casual speech but it's simply no substitute for genuine writing ability (which precludes such literary gems as "SpaceX is killing it... [dude]").
If God had wanted you to be an ignorant Fundamentalist, he wouldn't have given me the ability to knock you in the fucking head with a copy of the Old Testament.;)

This is easily one of /.'s all-time best fucking posts. (Don't see too many gems like this one anymore...)

Except Tesla itself is the reason the stock will tank
You were responding to a "yes or no" question; I'm afraid the correct response was not "Choice 'C' - Change of Subject*"
You know... if you hadn't posted as AC, you would've gotten a mod point just for participating!
Can we please now stop pretending our governments are in any way, shape, or form represent the peoplpe?
Be careful what you wish for; the day we can no longer pretend is the day we have to admit we've conpleted our return to feudalism.
Oh wait, you where making sort of a joke, right?
The parent has already demonstrated far too low of a cognitive threshold to even understand what you just typed.
...the UK has perfected this, and therefore not illegal
If your mother told you that you weren't fucking retarded, she lied... but I'm reasonably sure it was only because she loved you.
Most people want something stylish

The FBI is not the "Intel Community"
Word games from "Mr. Establishment" himself... color me surprised at your 'semantic creativity.'
Figured wrong, I clearly did. ;)

Decades?? No... not really; in fact not at all.

Not sure you're old enough to remember...
