Was her castle rent controlled?

“Melania’s looking at Trudeau like she wants him to turn that dress into a Canadian flag.”

is the stripper pole load bearing?

That may depend on the user.

doesn’t it usually only last a day or two?

From the article:

U.S. flag code dictates that flags remain lowered for the 30-day period from the death of a former president. But that code isn’t mandatory, so once he becomes president, Trump could technically override it.

So I gather the answer to your question is “yes, but also no”.

In most restaurants I saw there was no wall in between.

This was my experience as well. I can still see it today in some older restaurants that haven’t been renovated in years, where there’s an area of the dining room with a much higher ceiling.

Popeye vs Tintin vs Pooh

Actually that’s such a ridiculous concept I might watch it.

Dieselpunk might be more accurate.

our server is getting Gerbilled by Lemmywinks

In 10 years, this will be an XKCD comic.

Couldn’t they just move .io to a different category?

Specifically the issue is that two letter TLDs are reserved exclusively for countries/governments. So far only one exception has been made to this rule, .su for the Soviet Union. So another exemption is certainly possible.

an equal and opposite angular momentum

Idea: contra rotating chainsaws.

what is the Miiverse?

It was a sort of social space Nintendo ran on the 3DS and Wii U. Kind of combination chat room and message board with a space where Miis (Nintendo avatars) could “hang out”. It could also be used to send messages though games, like you could leave a message as a sort of note in Mario Maker or Splatoon. I thought it was kind of cool, tbh.

not sure if I’m too old, too young or too poor

It was shut down in…no. 2017 was not 7 years ago. No.

Flat Saturn confirmed!

Flaturn.

Party A gets 40% of the vote

Party A wins because they get the majority

Just going to point out, 40% is not a majority. In this case they have a plurality.

In many US rural areas, home internet connections have a monthly cap

And suburban, and urban. I’ve never lived anywhere that didn’t have a cap.

I still have the T-Mobile G1 phone plan.

Man that was a great phone.

My plan isn’t quite that old, but it’s getting up there. They recently increased my price by a few dollars per line. Then they tried to get me to move to a current plan, which turned out to be 20% higher price for less return. I had to try not to burst out laughing at the poor guy’s face.

I’ve been with TMo for more than 20 years–they’re the only carrier I’ve ever used–but if my price goes up again I’m jumping ship.

OK but did it really flop or where they expecting it to sell a morbillion units weekly?

From another article:

Sources say that Ubisoft was expecting The Lost Crown to sell similarly to the biggest Metroidvania’s in the market, with millions of units sold in a relatively short space of time. Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown has sold approximately one million units at the time of writing.

We can’t even take care of that, how could we care for an Yggdrasil?

“Mom I want an Yggdrasil”

“We have Yggdrasil at home”

Marvin the Martian as Sauron.

“Earth shattering kaboom” feels rather apt here.
