    NHL 2026: The Olympics Will Be Mammoth!

    Because the rule specifically says they are. And I'm fine with that. Why are first downs in football dramatically measured with chains while the actual placement of the football is essentially done by a combination of guesses and estimations by the line judges and umpire (And frankly, the...

    NHL 2026: The Olympics Will Be Mammoth!

    The NHL, correctly for once, doesn't want egregious conduct that happens after a possible reviewed play to go unpunished, so by rule any penalties that happen still get called. I'm fine with that. If they want to change it so that it can't result in a penalty shot (because they're essentially...

    Business, Economics, and Taxes 2: That's Why We Fight to Take the Means Back

    It's not that they get discounts - in any traditionally regulated market (so ignore Texas and other deregulated spaces), "discounts" are verboten. It's that as a class, industrial has a different rate structure, and many utilities have a "very large industrial" or similar type of class above...

    Business, Economics, and Taxes 2: That's Why We Fight to Take the Means Back

    Big data has gotten better at their electric contracts. But the dirty little secret from not even 10 years ago was that they'd have been better off on standard industrial rates than their negotiated ones. On the flip side, utilities have seen that shift and are driving harder bargains for data...

    Business, Economics, and Taxes 2: That's Why We Fight to Take the Means Back

    Every utility bill has two primary components: a usage charge and a customer charge. The customer charge is the flat monthly fee because the infrastructure to serve you is there whether you use a lot of it or a little of it. It's there even if you are selling solar energy back to the grid. The...

    US Foreign Policy 4.0: making the world safe to flee to if the MAGAts win here

    Your argument is that voting blue no matter who in the general doesn't make a big difference. Pretty sure we wouldn't be at war with Iran, fighting with the first American Pope, destroying the White House, dealing with aftermath of the DOGE fiasco, or generally worried about our President...

    US Foreign Policy 4.0: making the world safe to flee to if the MAGAts win here

    Don't even have to look that far. The Tea Party did it to the GOP. Then MAGA followed up with a more compete takeover of the entire party. The Green Party's failure wasn't inherently policy; it was procedure. It should've attempted to become a wing of the DNC rather than an independent...

    US Foreign Policy 4.0: making the world safe to flee to if the MAGAts win here

    Beyond that, if you want to change things, show the fuck up in the primaries. Schumer et al should absolutely be replaced by someone better. But if you think that is a Republican, I've got a bridge to sell you.

    NCAA Hockey 2025- CHA now welcome

    Was rooting for Wisconsin for the wife, but I appreciate the irony of the GWG being scored after Wisconsin's goalie threw his stick given he did the same thing against Dartmouth to stop a goal (uncalled).
