- He landed relatively quickly. -- nm - ty97 Apr 26, 07:27
- this is my shocked font -- nm - oblique Apr 26, 07:23 2
  - Is the new company... in his pants? - Spawn Apr 26, 07:36 1
    - I think this is the monkey/chimpanzee guy -- nm - zeitgeist Apr 26, 13:20

Interesting. Wyze launches a garage door controller that uses a camera and a QR code -- (link) - oblique Apr 26, 07:08 3
- sounds interesting. Not sure I like the idea of having a giant QR code on the door. But then again, it's not like it will be seen often. -- nm - sycor Apr 26, 07:24
- What if the QR code gets dirty ? -- nm - decline Apr 26, 07:19 1
  - Print a new one. -- nm - Qale Apr 26, 07:48
prep day update: Low sodium broth is drinkable if you put a lot of salt in it. - loosilu Apr 26, 07:07 1
- Yeah that sounds pretty bad. -- nm - sycor Apr 26, 07:13

- ...Major League Baseball, which has the autonomy to suspend players for "just cause"... - Mop Apr 26, 07:45
- He’s another who could best serve humanity by removing himself from it. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 26, 07:22
I don’t understand the Glenn Greenwald connection here. Has he gone right wing nutjob? -- (link) - Mop Apr 26, 06:48 3
- Has he gone? Totally and completely. For awhile now. -- nm - Jovian Apr 26, 07:34
- He's always been pro-Russia and now those that are pro-Russia are on the far right instead of the far left. - spamlet Apr 26, 06:49 1

I hate our legal system. 5mil for damage caused by buying a house on a golf course?! - Will Hunting Apr 26, 06:41 14
- I wonder how much the golf course is getting from their insurance. -- nm - Max Apr 26, 07:53 1
  - $5m -- nm - spamlet Apr 26, 07:55

- *smgdh* -- nm - znufrii Apr 26, 07:35
- They sued their homebuilder too?! -- nm - ty97 Apr 26, 07:30 1
  - They were probably also the developer, and responsible for siting the house on the lot, or whatever. -- (edited) - znufrii Apr 26, 07:38
- I agree that amount is crazy talk. But shouldn't the course have up nets or something between the course and the houses? I know my buddy used to live - sycor Apr 26, 06:52 5
  - It seems to be more about the design of the course - and either the design should be changed or the house shouldn't have been built in the first place -- nm - Roger More Apr 26, 07:24 3
    - Even still…that’s how golf is. You cut the corners. You don’t want your house hit, don’t buy on a golf course. - Will Hunting Apr 26, 07:43
    - It sounds like they moved one of the holes to improve the problem. -- nm - loosilu Apr 26, 07:32 1
      - but they only did so after the ruling from what I read earlier this week. -- nm - Diva Apr 26, 07:37
  - No. You buy on a course, it’s an assumed risk. You want access to the course unfettered for the views and the ability to play a hole or two at dusk - Will Hunting Apr 26, 07:24
- If I was that golf course I would build a 20 ft tall wall blocking their property off from the course -- nm - decline Apr 26, 06:46 1
  - for sure. the ugliest chain link fence that ever was. -- nm - amanda Apr 26, 07:05

- Durant went from the Warriors and Draymond giving him no quarter to this toxic shithole filled with two of the worst professionals in modern memory. - Will Hunting Apr 26, 06:28
- between him and Simmons you have two of the most toxic players in the NBA. -- nm - Beaker Apr 26, 05:42 6
  - I said it last night that the trade for him made zero sense if you're trying to win now. He refuses to play when he's not injured and when he's - Krusty Apr 26, 05:52 5
    - He knew Harden was about to tank his team too. - Will Hunting Apr 26, 06:37 4
      - For sure but why trade him to the Sixers for a guy that is both physically and mentally broken? Was there no other team interested? I find that hard - Krusty Apr 26, 06:40 3
        
        Nope, not that he would go to. The money was right and smart teams were not interested. - Will Hunting Apr 26, 06:44 2
        
        He didn't have a no-trade clause. The Nets could have traded him to anywhere they wanted but I guess if he's going to refuse to play for that team too - Krusty Apr 26, 07:22 1
        
        the 2 first round draft picks aren't exactly nothing though. - Diva Apr 26, 07:44

- Did we ever find out what brand the competitor "tiny cinnamon gum" was supposed to be? -- nm - con_carne Apr 26, 06:53 1
  - If memory serves, it was supposed to represent Trident gum. -- nm - znufrii Apr 26, 06:55
- Yup. -- nm - znufrii Apr 26, 06:36
- There was a girl I went to school with we called Big Red because of this. -- nm - Reagen Apr 26, 06:34
