I felt so defeated when I went to pick up some medication last night which was $100 instead of $60 which it had been the previous month. I asked if there were any coupons available and the pharmacist said that was AFTER the coupon price. $100 for 15 pills.

I’ve been paying out of pocket for this med for years since my insurance company determined I had reached the “lifetime benefit limit” for that drug. I submitted an appeal earlier this year and was shut down. I’ve talked to my doctor about alternative drugs, and he said pretty much all the rest have significant side effects.

And after this week’s elections, I’m sure it’s only going to get worse over the next four (or more) years.

Seems like a good move for everyone. If you like the Civ series and have wondered if there was a decent fantasy or sci-fi version, Endless Legend and Endless Space 1 or 2 have you covered, respectively.

Good catch. I was drunk when I wrote that comment on my phone. Either I misread the release date or I mistyped it.

Meh, the best way to play RDR was back in May 2014 2010 on an Xbox 360.

Remake RDR1 in the sequel’s engine you lazy bastards.

You beat me to it, because I was looking for evidence to support the dick pics thing. I can’t find any source I would be comfortable vouching for. Just a grain of salt there.

That pic was taken at the Dorton arena in Raleigh. I used to go there as a kid to watch minor league hockey games. Now it’s used for livestock shows and the like.

Dunno about TN, but in NC, a Weapon of Mass Destruction is a legal term referring to anything designed to harm more than one person simultaneously.

This led, for example, to a local headline about a man holding up a bank with a WMD because he used a sawn-off shotgun.

I don’t think he’s complaining about movie trailers. He’s talking about the Coca Cola and 12 year old M&Ms advertisements that run for 10 minutes BEFORE the theater plug and trailers start.

When I went to see Deadpool and Wolverine, I think the projector fucked up and we had to watch the ad loop twice. When the movie finally started 25 minutes late, people cheered just to see the Marvel logo

Dresden Codak? Jesus. That is a comic that I haven’t thought about in so many years. Now I have to figure out where the hell I left off so I can catch up

I like it so that the USB C will last longer. At least in theory.

It’s more than theory in my experience. I had a OnePlus 5 and lint completely ruined the USB-C port. I could spend 10 minutes trying to dig stuff out and get the cable right for it to establish a charge before I finally gave up and upgraded. It’s why I’m not AS annoyed that the wireless charging add-on takes up the port. As long as it’s also keeping debris out of the port (and the rest of the phone continues to run well) I’ll live with it.

The phone or the OS? Hardware wise, my only gripe is the lack of wireless charging. I use an aftermarket plug to add it, but it doesn’t put the charge pad quite in the right place, so I sometimes have to put it upside down. It also means the USB-C port is always occupied. That isn’t a huge deal for me as I like to use plugs to keep dust out anyway

Software wise, I’m still running regular Android. I don’t like that there’s no Gallery app. You have to use Google Photos. That coupled with the fact that .nomedia files don’t seem to work mean that the app shows ALL photos on your phone, including some you might want to keep private.

Other than that though, I’m pretty happy with it. Just upgraded mine to 15.

I think it’s a roundabout attempt to get us to wonder what the fuck Kick is. I’m not that curious.

Yeah, I stayed with my parents for a few months while I was house hunting and being limited to Level 1 charging was challenging. I couldn’t recover a full commute’s worth of charge overnight and would start each day with progressively less charge, so I’d have to swing by a L3 charger once a week or so. Still cheaper than gas though.

My dad pays for the NFL.com package and YouTubeTV (not premium, and even more expensive package than that) so he can watch all the games. I dread every season because of the inevitable bitching about one or both services.

He has an elastic band he puts up to block the score ticker on the bottom of the screen, and he’s constantly terrified that they’ll cut away from the current game for an update on another one he hasn’t watched yet.

I feel like there’s a real market for the old Red Zone channel that DirectTV used to do. No commercials, no breaks, just snap, play until the whistle, then fast forward to the next snap. It only showed gameplay when one of the teams was in the red zone(hence the name), but I bet people like my dad would pay enough to offset the lost ad revenue if they covered the whole game like that.

It looks like it’s done in a comic book style. Reverse image searches show some Twitter and Tumblr posts indicating it’s Kate Kane looking for Tim Drake (Batwoman and Robin from the Batman franchise), but I’m not sure if this is an actual page from the comic or just fanart.

Stein wasn’t even the only third party candidate stealing votes. I voted for Gary Johnson with the Libertarian party as a “protest vote”. Glancing at national results, he had almost three times as many votes as Stein did.

I was 100% the moron this meme is targeted towards. I voted for Harris yesterday.

I think the rest of the article is worth the read. Apatow really was dominating Hollywood for a few years there.

What, are they running down the same presidential campaign checklist as 2016 and just forgot to remove the “hush money to pornstars” line-item for this go-round? Someone call Karen MacDougal and find out if she got the same offer.

Or… mountain folk who live up in the…mountains?

In North Carolina in the US, we might have official documents calling it a Driver License, but having lived here almost my entire life, I would use “driver’s license” in casual conversation.
