America throwing away its' position as global leader because a bunch of senile geriatrics somehow thought we were getting screwed by, uh, controlling the entire world, is truly something
The International Criminal Court is ditching Microsoft Office, saying it’s too dependent on US tech, in favor of Open Desk, a German open source alternative.
The move comes after Microsoft revoked ICC head Karim Khan’s email access when he was sanctioned by the US for the warrant against Netanyahu.

i keep hearing 'mind numbing' being used to mean like fun or exciting, instead of extremely boring. Is this an indication of language drift or an indication that so many ways of having fun now are about turning your brain off and losing yourself to numbness?

I-90 light rail update: before the end of the month, 2 Line testing will start extending up to Lynnwood, with out-of-service trains running in between normal trains. Riders won't be able to board, but this will be a preview of what 4 minute headways north of downtown look like.

I think I read this makes the mortgage on a 400k house only $200~ less per month but means you pay $1 million over the lifetime of the loan
Kevin Hassett: "The 50 year mortgage is just one of many many policies that are currently being studied ... the argument for it is that it would really lower the monthly payment. The downside is it would take longer to build equity in the home."
