As an audiophile, nothing beats listening to my favorite music on my $250,000+ MBL sound system.
Why do dating apps not let me set an age limit higher than 99? I want to become a beneficiary to some sweet old woman.
Just spoke to an insider.

The Libertarian Party candidate for North Carolina state senate is currently in the midst of an armed chase and shoot-out with the cops, keeping us posted with live tweets:
Touchscreen laptops are not being developed for you, but so your boss can smush his greasy fingers on your screen while hunting through twenty different submenus you have never seen before, looking for copy and paste.

If you think San Francisco is only 4-5 years behind NYC culturally then you are a philistine idiot. San Francisco is decades behind NYC and anyone with an iota of taste in their body knows this. NYC clears SF in food, night life, music, arts, fashion, urbanism, walkability, intellectual spaces, and exposed brick walls. If you have observed how people in the two cities even just dress and carry themselves you know it's a hydrogen bomb vs coughing baby situation. NYC has comedy clubs, theater, and intellectual life spanning EVERYTHING, not just AI and tech. In New York I can go see a play, get dinner in a dimly lit restaurant, and then get drinks with my friends for like $500. You can't do that in SF. In NYC I can go to a party in Brooklyn and meet amazing experimental visual artists who really don't like getting asked if their parents pay for their nice 1 bedrooms. Yesterday I went bar hopping during the day to catch all the Big 10 football games which is becoming a huge cultural mainstay in Manhattan. Yeah, we're culturally and intellectually superior to San Francisco tech nerds. Do I even need to mention the subway?

Everyone has this whole system backwards. If a post only gets 1-2 likes, it's a work of genius only appreciated by a discerning few. If a post does numbers it's reprehensible slop that appeals to the lowest common denominator and you've failed.
