 Happy October.

Because there are always pregnant women, the average number of skeletons in the human body is always higher than one.

 They looked like "podcast listeners."

You don't hate modern journalists enough, you think you do, but you don't.

 @8b1adef6 I removed Evergreens moving forward to group items by date in part of the prep for 3.0. 
 @669563d8 it means the anti-bullying campaign of the late 90s was the fundamental catalyst to our complete and utter downfall. 
 @b3e72378 I unliked this just so I could like it again. 
 How will the zoomers handle the news today? Dumbledor and The Wicked Witch of the East both dying within 24 hours. 
 @9a9797e1 anytime this happens, it is because the server is having an issue with that particular file - the next iteration will be more forgiving.

But you can almost always fix it by running the file through https://tinypng.com and using the result. 
 What I wouldn't give to see @388a5698's reaction to this clip. 
 Is there anything Canadians do better than apologize profusely?

 fun fact: 

Microsoft is 2nd biggest  corporation in the world now, mainly due to cloud.

And now... 
 @efa2e20e yes, foolish investor focus has stagnated actual tech growth. 
 @efa2e20e has our fighting in the middle east completely made people forget what camouflage is? 
 I have no idea what that Texas Attorney General thing is about, and at this point, I’m too lazy... 
 (so 48kHz compression is lossless? I don’t understand it, isn’t lossless = no compression? )
... 
 @efa2e20e Lossless !== not compressed.

Just means no detail/quality is will be lost in decompression.

 @b15b928f I'm dying at some of these pieces of artwork today

However.. the 15 years one is disturbing 
 @4e1bcce4 Your combination of submission is both gorgeous and hilarious. 
 Re-streaming the show in the Timcast Discord at the moment... Wish me luck producers.

ITM 
 The youngsters over there don't know who they are... it's sad

And they all freaked out "but you'll cost them YT views, that will hurt their monetization... etc"

Elon should ban her... 
 @efa2e20e He did.

If the current culture war was WWII, she would be akin to Gen Omar Bradley.

 @efa2e20e Dude, she literally is the doxxing and censoring queen. 

I can't possibly summarize, but she is the most protected censorship czar in history, here uncle runs the Internet Archive and even scrubbed her past from it.

Can you summarize for me,... 
 @efa2e20e Oh wow - you're really not familiar?

That's like not knowing who Mao is when discussing the CCP take over of China.

Seriously, she's at the tippy top of the regime's censorship machine. 
 @efa2e20e of course, that's Taylor Lorenz.

Amazing she feels ok being on "Hey let me show you my dick pics" Leo's show.

I recommend Aegis as your TOTP app for Android users. Or even better, adopt https://bitwarden.com as your new best friend and put it on your computers, browsers, and phone. 

Let it handle the TOTP for you AND manage your passwords.
