  1. A ruling on this issue could impact a lot of crypto investing behavior. https://decrypt.co/120793/crypto-staking-taxes-appeal
  2. This isn't hard to make at home from scratch, but when you are feeling lazy or want something already made, it's really quite good: It's really thick - almost like a condensed soup. We usually add some chicken stock or water to thin it out a little. It pairs great with:

  6. Wish the Sound of 007 had included a moment to highlight Chris Cornell's "You Know My Name". It's way better than Duran Duran's garbage IMO.

  8. I wonder if the change in the core's rotation speed is related to the increased movement of the north magnetic pole. https://www.popularmechanics.com/science/environment/a32496561/why-magnetic-north-pole-moving/

  11. Maybe she just ate anyone who challenged her. /jk There were broken vehicles lining both sides of the road that prevented them from just going off road to the service road. They were in a small truck, not a Monster truck. Presumably, they went back as far as they had to to find a way off the main highway. Presumably, the feeder road (and other roads) was (were) blocked at some point(s) to funnel incoming traffic into a trap/killzone.

  13. Tonights episode was more straightforward storytelling and I thought it did a good job of developing Joel's and Ellie's relationship. I love how most characters in this show are complex people with believable personas that aren't one dimensional caricatures.

  16. Feed me beans and beer and I'll gift you an airborne toxic event.
  17. Both of the Ewert brothers crack me up. Fusion Ewert (Reese) refuses to smile and talks so Canadian that if he weren't actually Canadian, people would think he's making fun of the Canadian stereotype. He plays coy at being stoic. Hydra Ewert (Jake) is unapologetic in giving his ego free reign / tooting his own horn. He's brash and relishes boos from the crowd. I don't think Riptide guy is really much of an actor. I think his ego was definitely challenged by team MadCatter's criticisms on design theft. When the match ended and we could see both teams interacting for the post game interviews, there appeared to be legit bad blood between the teams. It was mentioned that the issue had been manifest in the pits for some time.
  18. Well, that was entertaining. Some good fights, a split decision and, for me, a surprise result.
  19. Watched a few episodes and, for me, it's getting too formulaic. I keep wondering why she doesn't just apply for a job with the FBI or something.

  22. Minotaur looked really good in their last match. Barring some glitch, I think they have a very good shot to make the final this season. Ribbot was amazing last season. I'm not sold that they still have the magic this season, but even so, they should handle Claw Viper, which is dumb (no damage weapon). Sawblaze v Lockjaw could be a fun fight. I expect Sawblaze to triumph. Huge v Blip could be a hilarious (and/or boring) cripple fight with neither bot being very successful in attacking the other. Fusion v Witch Doctor should be a snoozer. Witch Doctor should prevail easily. Double Tap v Doomba - What? Who are these bots? Riptide v Madcatter sounds like a fun fight. Both bots looked legit in their last fights.
