“Should” be in for a pricy repair bill.

Unfortunately there’s a lot of precedent, up to and including loss of life, where the police “cannot be held accountable because it might impact their ability to do their duty in the future.”

The second one.

Mirroring is good for speed, but a storage mechanism with parity checks will always be more recoverable. And you will have far more storage available.

Open and close? Fingernails and toenails?

Not sure about the second part, tanks are built to go over things. Their “negative slant” seems more likely to push things under than a car’s hood or a truck/SUV’s flat face.

For that they’re waiting on the paperwork to go through with Apple.

The study is talking about overall numbers of jobs, not specific companies. Get fired from McDonalds closing a location, get a job with higher pay somewhere else that’s paying the new minimum wage, is a net zero result.

McDonalds is gutted that their 2024 earnings are on track for only a 5% increase over 2023, which saw a 10% gross profit increase for the year.

Remember when there was a “shoplifting crime wave” that it turned out was just profits were down so they had to blame something?

…and they shouldn’t. It’s a government service vehicle, form and function over aesthetics.

They could’ve bought a fleet of <s3xy> EVs off the shelf but they would’n’t’ve been fit for service and more expensive per mile/year of use.

Half of windows settings is a button that says “additional settings” that opens up the full settings window that hasn’t changed since Win95. It’s absolutely insane that in a decade they haven’t managed to even replicate full functionality.

Yes, a return to the unstructured hellscape glory of unranked comments of yesteryear. Every thread starting with a resounding “First!!1!!”. Relevant or interesting things hidden on page 5 of 31. Spam lurking around every corner, as a treat.

That’s a compromise!

In the US a few decades ago the big rail companies were given the ultimatum to upgrade their safety infrastructure or have a national speed limit of 79 mph imposed on them.

Guess which they did?

Disney is also actively arguing in court that if you use the free trial you can’t sue them for anything. Ever.

Even if years later you die in one of Disney’s hotels because one of Disney’s restaurants didn’t care about your allergy.

So there’s that to worry about now.

It disables scrolling. I’m sure there’s a use case but mostly it’s annoying. I don’t think every program/OS respects it anymore either.

The prequels had a mountain of books/comics/shows backing them up and filling out the parts that were lacking. ( i.e. the huge gapping holes in tone and execution ).

The sequels… there’s not much to salvage. They’re more very pretty hole than substance. To the point there haven’t been more than a handful of attempts and they’ve basically been ignored/sidestepped.

“Maybe we should have planned the trilogy” - JJ after RoS

Disney allocated a billion dollars to a trilogy of movies and didn’t even ask for outlines of scripts first. I know JJ is “mystery box guy” and all but the amount of hubris to think they could just wing it on the strength of the IP is staggering.

Cloudflare’s counterclaim system didn’t open a ticket when the notification email was replied to.

That’s the kind of nonsense you expect from a local municipality hosting solution. Not one of the biggest on the Internet.

RSS feeds are so nice. I’m still frustrated that Facebook moved away from an in-order timeline. (Or would be if I used it for anything other than family chats)

An ordered list of things you haven’t seen yet on <topic> instead of a mostly random list from everywhere. Amazing.

Technique yes, technology I would question.
