I think "the price" is some sort of loss of prestige from it's feeder schools and cultural capital after offering pro bono work to Trump. I know they lost a bunch of their top associates (really good ones too, apparently) but I heard from a friend who goes to Princeton that a lot of the law students didn't even want to article there anymore. I'm assuming it's the same for other big law schools, especially Harvard Law after Trump basically put a target on their backs.

Cadwalader is like the oldest law firm in NYC, the "Taft" in the name comes from President Taft's brother Henry Taft. From what I understand from my friend (and her associates), it's actually crazy that they're merging with another legal entity.

Something something assumptions, asses, etc.

(See, I can simplify stuff too. Now there's a chance that a certain amount of people are wondering if I'm having a stroke instead of linking it to a well-known English saying.

That's why you're not actually "simplifying" anything.)

Dawg are you in my walls 😭 I am literally listening to Touhou Eurobeats from this channel rn

No fr, this works so well! I changed my morning alarm at the start of 2025 to a random song from my "On Rotation" playlist for whatever month it is, and wow has it made it easier for me to get out of bed without being miserable.

(Today was "Typhoon Devil" from the Chainsaw Man Reze Arc soundtrack, if anyone is curious)

You may make the distinction between saving a document and downloading a document, but most people don’t pay anywhere near that amount of attention, and don’t care about specifics.

Covering "Most people" but not all cases is where most software goes awry. We should probably try to avoid that for something as universal as saving a file.

I know someone that went to a charity performance years ago that was hosted there. She said her ass hurt afterwards. Maybe bring a seat cushion or something if anyone ever finds themselves going there for a performance.

Darude - Sandstorm.

This isn't a joke.

They won't, they're addicted (I say this as a sporadic TT user). Look at how shit FB has gotten, yet people still hang around. Tiktok's algo is 100x more addictive.

The only positive for TT for me personally was that the bot problem wasn't as bad on it compared to other social media. I bet that will change pretty quickly.

Damn, Ricciardo really isn't coming back 😔

the little girl makes the mix more weird than cute.

Isn't that the point? I remember seeing a trailer during Summer Games fest (I think) and it gave me Little Sister vibes from Bioshock.

As someone who didn't like Max Payne as much as other others, I'm loving this new era of Remedy.

That being said, I'm waiting for them to integrate it into the AlanWakeControlQuantiumBreakiverse (or whatever we're calling it) somehow through the remakes.

 

I love interacting with you all very much, and I know there's a lot of important political issues in the world going on right now. I love my Linux Mint setup, I support Palestine and trans people, and I've blazed through all of OG Star Trek, TNG, Voyager, and am now on DS9.

But I also want to discuss Luka to the Lakers and Kendrick calling Drake a pedophile and getting 5 Grammy's, a tour, and a Superbowl halftime show out of it, you know? I wanna talk about your country's Eurovision entries. Am I just not in the right communities?

 

American Tiktok users would rather use ACTUAL Chinese spyware app than Meta. XiaoHongShu (meaning "Little Red Book") and ChatGPT (for translating the Mandarin only app) are currently #1 and #2 on the App store.

 

The Verge published this spam article about the "best printers of 2024" to demonstrate how terrible Google's search results are. It now appears as the top non-sponsored post if you search "best printer" on Google.

I love a good, informative troll.
