They just keep happening and happening.

Faraday cage?

You could install the TV in a block of lead. Bonus: +20 against a Burglary check.

Would Kamala Harris run unopposed?

Definitely not. The convention would still have happened and a candidate would have been nominated to run. The timeline and internal party politics would have been drastically altered, though.

Even if the Repubs didn't nominate someone, there were still third parties running that would have probably just filled the void.

Does anybody know what’s the name of the painting?

At Vesper's by Charles Edward Halle.

It's monthly at my company. Combined with other complexity requirements, it's pushed everyone into such predictable patterns that I could probably guess my way into any manager's PC in probably a few minutes.

Also, there's no lockdown after X attempts. I can try infinitely, as far as I'm aware.

Delorean Motor Company.

They're (kind of) back. A new company was formed after acquiring the old company's branding. So far they're only providing parts to owners of vintage DMC-12s (and I think a few "new old" DMC-12s), but they're working on a new EV inspired by the classic model.

No golden parachute for you!

From the article you linked:

Shareholders appeared to reject the rich pay package in a significant rebuke, though as an advisory vote it is non-binding, meaning that the company does not have to make any adjustments if it does not want to.

A caveat follows:

Companies will, however, often voluntarily adjust pay packages after shareholders reject them.

I'm not holding my breath either way.

Imagine the opening to Lord of War, but the assembly line passes through a portal into 1859... I could watch that movie.
