From my assistant Claude. Stage IV NSCLC is normally defined by distant metastasis. But one specific subtype — M1a — covers cases where cancer has spread within the thoracic cavity but not to distant organs: things like malignant pleural or pericardial effusion, or nodules in the opposite lung. That still counts as Stage IV because the disease has crossed outside the primary tumor site and lymph nodes, but it hasn’t gone systemic.

@wtg Thanks for this! My mother is with Xfinity, I'll let her know! ATT has a PIN and also requires the account holder to get a special transfer pin that comes with an expiration date, so anyone with ATT should be ok.

Because I made an extra server-level backup ("snapshot") before attempting this fix (just as an extra precaution), in the near future (after we're fairly certain everything works well), I will need to get rid of the old "snapshot" that will require server downtime. Will try to do something like this in the wee hours when people are sleeping so hopefully no one will notice. UPDATE: All done around 1:33 AM Eastern Time.

@Bernard Oh, I totally agree with you on the McConnell situation, the radio silence for a month . We're definitely not getting the whole story. As for the photo, I could see it being a real photo of him, not something that's doctored. I'll take it as proof of life, but not proof of competence. The guy in the photo could just be an empty shell. What I want to see is him talking to people in person.

I like it! It's just a game. Pretty clever, actually.

What a cat!

Allons enfants de la patrie, le jour de gloire est arrivé! And I love La Vie en Rose. I always sing it as “tu” rather than “il”. More personal!

He really should stop trying to save face when he blunders into something. He just ends up sounding stupid. U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday announced a reversal of plans to charge a 20% toll on cargo going through the Strait of Hormuz, saying that Middle Eastern countries will instead make investment and trade deals with the U.S. “Based on highly productive conversations with Middle East leadership, I have decided to replace the 20% United States Reimbursement Fee with Trade and Investment Deals that the various Gulf States will be making into the United States,” Trump said on social media. The president said the investments “will be MASSIVE,” though it’s unclear if these would be new commitments relative to what Trump announced after a visit last year to the Middle East. https://apnews.com/article/iran-us-hormuz-strait-war-july-14-2026-abd060c55feea216625689e57d8f76be

No more sacrilegious than, say, Jackie Chan issuing a singing album. I bet no one here thinks of Jackie Chan as a singer, yet he has 20 albums out thus far: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackie_Chan_discography Jackie Chan's first publicly released singing solo: Link to video

2 of the 3 farmers my land is rented to are MAGA. Both have good sized operations. The third never considered voting for Trump. He farms half my land.

@Axtremus I’d do that, too

Fake news! Everybody knows that it's not a real Thai restaurant if it doesn't display a portrait of the King of Thailand.
