We won’t just have death panels. We’ll have automated death panels!

Dopamine doesn’t flood the brain as once believed – it fires in exact, ultra-fast bursts that target specific neurons. The discovery turns a century-old view of dopamine on its head and could transform how we treat everything from attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) to Parkinson’s disease.

On the contrary, cars are way too subsidized! We should be taxing these vehicles to appropriately reflect their social cost.

Sandy is beautiful.

This article looks fake.

Sometimes you get care and you learn a year later that you can’t afford it and your life is over.

All I see is that this cycle is more efficient.

No fair! I want my cookie.

I think you have to have a certain status with them. I visited, and my boss got a cookie, but I got nothing.

Best I can do is a dictatorship.

I still feel like that’s an overestimation. I have worked there in the past, and the best and brightest often are because they’re passionate people. They tend to get undervalued and taken advantage of because of that passion.

There is no place for critical thinkers and problem solvers in new America.

Most definitely. It takes a generation to inspire develop and select these kinds of experts as well as build the kind of experience that you need to push the boundaries of human knowledge.

The result of this move is invariably an American dark age. We’re not going to be a relevant part of human progress for the foreseeable future.

The voters sent a clear signal that they do not value intellectuals. NASA is respecting those wishes.

Goodbye NASA. Thanks for all the cool science. Maybe someday you’ll exist more than in name only.

Let’s see the squirrels chew through this one.

Lutris is definitely the strongest contender, and is mostly based on the same compatibility technology.

I’ve run Proton without Steam for a few games. You’ve pretty much got the same code that Steam uses and most of their changes make it upstream eventually, so they’re not holding you hostage with being able to run your games. It just might get less convenient. There are other Linux game launchers that have good compatibility.

Steam and the company behind it have done wonders for Linux. They’ve given publishers a reason to care, they are providing strength and resources to fix bugs and libraries they care about, and generally have done very well in sharing their contributions with the community.

I do think this is a valid concern that we need to keep in mind, but I don’t think that we are at risk just yet. Valve is a business but as businesses go, they’re pretty cool.

This here meme’s an antique!
