I mean theoretically, but it was crap like everything else in that film. He figured nothing out on his own

I have a different brand of multicooker, and it's excellent. The "boil" function goes down as low as 40C so I use it to sous vide things fairly often

I'm not sure how much of a scandal it was outside of those directly affect, but I was in the circle. A group of us, led by one of the younger drama teachers, went to the Edinburg Fringe Festival (a big literary, drama and comedy festival) with a bunch of short comic plays by Checkov (yes, really!). he was attractive enough that he had to make sure not to be alone in a room with a female student in case of rumours, but he was decent and would never had done anything like that. He got his wife and his brother involved too, which was cool, we all got on really well. We had a lot of fun, it was great, and, amazingly for the first time at the Fringe, didn't actually lose money! (I think we made like fifty quid between twelve of us, so we didn't exactly make a profit either, but it was an amazing experience)

Then his brother and his wife had an affair and ran away together

a technology that is a threat to human creativity

Perhaps the most stupid take on this subject I have seen. Nothing will stop humans creating, definitely not a new creative medium! That's all it is, by the way, a new medium, like photography a hundred and some years ago, or digital painting more recently. Most of the same arguments were made against pre mixed paints - Turner was dragged for using them, for example!

IIRC he stepped aside immediately after the republican convention that had had been aimed entirely at him leaving them scrambling, and endorsed Harris who was immediately read to run. The timing was impeccable!

Oh hey, character art for my new D&D character!

Are we playing the anarchists and communists are the same thing game today? Communists absolutely can be authoritarian, anarchists can't anarcho-communists aren't but not all communists are ~~true Scotsman~~ anarcho-communists
