They lose in every timeline. The US would have nuked them.

OMG it's so good to hear that this is changing. Twenty years ago, in college, I responded to flyers around campus about a support group forming. The therapist refused because obviously the support group was only for women. No mention on the flyers. She was surprised I tried to sign up and said I'd make everyone uncomfortable.

I know we have a ways to go but I'm glad there's even a thought that maaaaaybe men need and can benefit from support, too?

How many different subs are you going to repost this to?

I have both. The way Bose handles bluetooth with multiple devices is so awful that I gave up on them and bought the Sony's. They would probably be fine if you only intend to ever pair them to one device. However, for me, I just never figured out what they were trying to do. I'd turn them on and they'd wake up a sleeping iPad in another room, or closed laptop, and then refuse to connect to my phone (using the phone's built in Bluetooth menu) until I opened the Bose App to reconfigure them. The last straw was on video calls for work-- they'd randomly re-connect with a random device.

The Sony's just don't do that. They don't wake up random sleeping or idle devices, and if they do connect to the wrong device I can use the OS Bluetooth menus to manually connect them to a given device -- rather than opening the app in my phone.

So cool, thanks. As a kid I spent so much time in DEBUG, stepping through DOS's executables, and especially the Interrupt handlers. It's so neat to see the actual source code-- way easier to read and follow. I didn't know it was all written in assembly, from within Debug it sometimes seemed so messy and convoluted that I just assumed more was written in C.

Hedwig. I thought it was such a beautiful movie and about half the people in the theater left.

+1-- I'm so impressed by the "reasonably large admin team"s' thoughtfulness and transparency.

Thank you It's easy to say but not so easy to believe. You help.

It's not your fault. Tell someone. You'll survive.

14 life sentences isn't "life in jail" in the UK, where murdering 270 people isn't too much for "compassionate release."
