The CEO of Accuweather, Joel Myers, will love this. He’s been trying to completely privatize weather forecasting for years.

They did it for the controversy to get attention.
Because, I know MDs with student loans. I don’t know why you think _everyone _ is having trouble paying back student loans.
I’m not saying the whole student loan business isn’t fucked up. Or, that there aren’t lots of people screwed over by the system.
But, of all the the people with student loans, anesthesiologists are the least of concern. It’s just stupidly laughable to show concern for an anesthesiologist‘s student loans. They’re fine. It’s one of the highest paid specialties.
Anthem’s policy proposal was dangerous and fucking scary from a patient treatment perspective. Arguing against it from the perspective of the anesthesiologist‘s loan payments makes no sense. The anesthesiologist would still be getting paid well while the patient laid on the table in agony or dying from lack of treatment.
Anaesthesiologists are not having trouble paying back student loans. It’s one of the highest paid specialties.
This article is BS as was Anthem’s policy. But, anaesthesiologists are doing just fine. If you want to feel bad for an MD, try pediatric oncologists or another specialty that isn’t in high demand.
I wonder what floor he’s staying on.
Looks like a timber raft.
I stream from Jellyfin to an Apple TV without your issues. It might be a network or configuration problem.
Have you tried Infuse, SenPlayer or other clients?
Deny. Defend. Depose.
The bar has been lowered that far. An open bar will put the lie to all of this right quick, though.
With the end of the NFT and other coins bullshit…
I got some bad news for you…
Uh, no. This about professional golf. There aren’t “fat old people” playing on the pro tours. Strength is very much a factor. LPGA courses are shorter. Women’s average drive distance is about 45 yds shorter than the average for men.
You obviously don’t understand golf and made a lot of assumptions there. This a fairly reasonable rule. Probably unnecessary but better than an outright ban.
“Captures” is an odd choice of verbiage for winning an election.
I thought he did that at a hotel, you know, in public. Totally acceptable. /s
Are you suggesting that people unsatisfied with a system that works mainly in the interest of a small group of elites will give power to some narcissistic, sadistic creep just to feel some vicarious sense of that power? It’s not like that could happen in real life, certainly not more than once in modern history. I mean, come on!
I like Stewart and Oliver but both have the schtick of “look how absurdly stupid these people are, we’re fucked, we must do better.”
That’s fine for what it is but what it is is watching someone else describing the scary thing and then express the fear you’re feeling. It’s cathartic but I think I don’t think it changes anyone’s mind.
People like Rogan get people to commiserate and identify with them and their feelings. Then, they come up with some crazy idea, institution or person to blame. It’s sort of the reverse order of Stewart and Oliver. So, they get people feeling first then get them to blame someone, the “libs”, usually.
The problem the Dems have is they still can’t show they are sympathetic to an audience like Rogan’s. Bernie can. But, even progressives like AOC, Tlaib, etc. don’t seem to be able to relate to rural/suburban, low-education, low-income people.
Over $100,000 isn’t exactly wealthy anymore. Under $100,000, in some areas, is a real struggle. The poverty line for a family of four if $31,000. You’d have to get pretty far past that to consider traveling for leisure.

And, who gives a fuck about Time Magazine these days? I’m surprised it still exists.
They were relevant 40 years ago but, since the Internet, they have lost 90% of their cred. They got into NFTs, for fuck’s sake.
