I understood it to be a Constitutional issue.
And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.
But there's plenty of weaseling one can do with how that's phrased.

He didn't take the job in San Francisco because his plane landed in Chicago at the end of the series with him taking a chance.
Ah ok it's been a while since I saw the final episodes.

They didn’t need to address them at all, that’s my point. I adore Cheers, but a spin-off is a spin-off. For as much as I love that show and its characters, the notion of a new show based on one of its characters needing being beholden to “Cheers canon” is just completely nonsensical. Like... who cares? It’s preposterous that the “follow up” to frigging Cheers is set in the Pacific Northwest and is about an erudite dandy of a psychologist who doesn’t deign to drink beer or watch sports. But Frasier as a show works so again... who cares? Let’s just not act like the connective tissue really mattered to what about Frasier made Frasier great because it didn’t.
And the same will hold true of any reboot.
Uh how is a "reboot" of Frasier with the same main character in any way at all the same as a spin-off?

They really didn’t though, at least not in any way that made sense. I’ll give them the dad thing, but his personality is COMPLETELY different.
I love both shows and I don’t care about the differences at all, but to say they addressed all the consistencies is only true in the most pedantic way possible.
Just because YOU weren't satisfied with the explanations, doesn't mean they didn't address them. Regardless, Frasier was not a reboot in the sense that you make it out to be. It was definitely a continuation, and they had to evolve the character to be able to carry the show.

Frasier DID ignore previous events, but it wasn’t a reboot obviously. Frasier goes from drinking beer to hating it, he goes from having a dead father to Martin being alive, his personality gets a huge overhaul, etc. He’s barely the same guy from Cheers to Frasier.
They addressed all those inconsistencies. It wasn't treated like a separate canon.
-
I don't like the idea of a reboot where events of the previous series are even somewhat ignored, potentially.
A continuation though? Absolutely. With the right writers and people behind it, of course. The show ended with Frasier taking a new job in San Francisco, so we could catch up with his career over there.

The other weird thing is that the i9 9900k (not sure that's enough 9s) is a "mainstream" platform CPU, on the Z370/390 chipset. i9 was introduced on the HEDT LGA2066 platform and it makes sense there.
Now the separation of i9, i7, i5 is rendered completely arbitrary and nonsensical.
-
It's a weird move. There are still i7s with HT but now it seems it's not a guaranteed thing. Future i7s may or may not have HT depending on the whims of Intel.

Yeah right before a five week recess. Real bold.

Why does it feel like decades of social and politcal progress has been undone in just the last couple of years?

So the update means every time I boot the computer I get my friends list popping up in the middle of the screen? And there's no option to disable this?

Nick Mullen isn't on IMDb (I mean, he is, but not in the way you're thinking) . . . if you want to know who he is, please, google him. Just do it.
You'll love the joke, maybe.
WELL THEN.
I SEE.

Guys, don't worry. This is why we keep @Greatoneshere around.
"Nick Mullen"
*pokes a piece of paper written "SEARCH" taped to greatone's forehead*
See? I don't even bother with IMDb anymore.

Many of whom are key witnesses in the Mueller probe.
The WH also threw in an accusation that these officials have been monetizing their clearance access, without providing any evidence or basis on how they arrived at that conclusion.

Murdered in front of his own children. Over a handicap spot.

Got a little goosebumpy, not gonna lie. That was a well put-together trailer, and some awesome shots.

Hatch sent a letter to the WH saying if it doesn't back off the tariffs hes going to begin to work on legislation to stop them.
Mmmmm delicious.

She looks like a tranny.
I mean that's fine, honestly. I have no bias.

I would've sacked an employee who did something similar without a second thought, especially if I'm an executive in a company with a "family-friendly" image.
That's just it though, isn't it? No one in such positions puts in any second thoughts. That's incredibly disingenuous. It's ridiculous that he shouldn't be allowed to live it down. There's no consideration for who he is now or his track record as a successful filmmaker.
I'm glad many people are more outraged at Disney than Gunn, and I hope that continues.

Jokingly linking to child pornography is pretty bad. Hopefully Gunn has actually grown as a person, but these tweets were made by a man in his 40s. It wasn’t some youthful indiscretion.
Was it confirmed to be an actual porn site?

It's weird when he talks. The animation is really sloppy.
Also...couldn't help but notice, Carnage isn't red.
