I think the more nuanced take is that we should be making "piracy" legal by expanding and protecting fair use and rights to make personal copies. There are lots of things that are called piracy now that really shouldn't be. Making "piracy" legal still leaves plenty of room for artists to get paid.

This is the dumbest thing I've heard all day.

'Struggle with generosity' is to greed, like 'died as a result of an officer involved shooting' is to murder.

This is such a weak argument. The police have a wide latitude in their discretion in the way they execute the law and almost no individual liability for any actions they take (e.g. murder, theft, rape, etc.), especially when they fear for their own lives or think someone may have broken an imaginary law that only exists inside their own head. But, when someone needs actual help and protection, suddenly their hands are tied by red tape? It's more than frustrating, it's straight up Orwellian doublespeak.

Forget this guide because their control recipe is less than perfect. This recipe is perfect. Fight me. I didn't perfect it, America's Test Kitchen did. Kudos to them.

I call this recipe perfect, not only because it makes the exact kind of cookie I crave, but because it can go from stored ingredients to finished cookie in the time it takes to prepare (without the hassle of softening butter) and it will make your house smell heavenly the entire time.

Buy good (and fresh) ingredients, you can't make perfect cookies with rubbish ingredients.

Perfect Browned Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

INGREDIENTS

• 1-3/4 cups (210g) unbleached all-purpose flour
• 1/2 (3g) teaspoon baking soda
• 14 tablespoons (197g) unsalted butter
• 1/2 cup (99g) granulated sugar
• 3/4 cups (160g) packed dark brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon (9g) table salt
• 2 teaspoons (11.2g) vanilla extract
• 1 large egg
• 1 large egg yolk
• 1-1/4 cups (296mL) semisweet chocolate chips
• 3/4 cup (177mL) chopped pecans or chopped toasted walnuts (optional)

PREPARATION Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Line 2 large (18- by 12-inch) baking sheets with parchment paper. Whisk flour and baking soda together in medium bowl; set aside.

Heat 10 tablespoons (140g) butter in 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat until melted, about 2 minutes. Continue cooking, swirling pan constantly until butter is dark golden brown and has nutty aroma, 1 to 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and, using heatproof spatula, transfer browned butter to large heatproof bowl.

Stir remaining 4 tablespoons butter into hot butter until completely melted. Add both sugars, salt, and vanilla to bowl with butter and whisk until fully incorporated. Add egg and yolk and whisk until mixture is smooth with no sugar lumps remaining, about 30 seconds. Let mixture stand 3 minutes, then whisk for 30 seconds. Repeat process of resting and whisking 2 more times until mixture is thick, smooth, and shiny. Using rubber spatula or wooden spoon, stir in flour mixture until just combined, about 1 minute. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts (if using), giving dough final stir to ensure no flour pockets remain.

Divide dough into 16 portions, each about 3 tablespoons (or use #24 cookie scoop). Arrange 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets, 8 dough balls per sheet. (Smaller baking sheets can be used, but will require 3 batches.)

Bake cookies 1 tray at a time until cookies the edges have begun to set but centers are still soft, 10 to 14 minutes, rotating baking sheet halfway through baking.

Transfer baking sheet to wire rack; cool cookies completely before serving.

Give these cookies away. Seriously, they are too delicious. Your waistline and your neighbors will thank you. Just don't give any cookies to the ignorant fucks whining about units. They got the conversion all wrong anyway.

I'm surprised anyone working at a movie theater is being paid enough to care enough to ruin a disabled person's day over this shit.

I say that computers work because we tricked some rocks into thinking by carving special runes into them.

I'm not used to seeing this with so many pixels.

They don't need to walk into the school's library in order to file a false police report.

Who else thinks those bags are mostly full of substrate (and the mycelium growing throughout it), not only the edible psychedelic parts that the headline and article implies? They'll be able to really bump up those charges if they add the mass of all that other stuff that would never be sold as a drug.

Have you seen the way those hipsters guzzle PBR? Do you really think it tastes any better than Budweiser? Image is EVERYTHING when you're selling cheap beer. Budweiser could have cemented its place as a progressive all-inclusive all-american beer. Instead they gave in to the bullies, an act that no bully can respect.

Or maybe the damn door release should work regardless of power? I shouldn't need special training to get out of a car in an emergency. Making an interior "manual release" that is hidden just seems like dangerously negligent design.
