Spicy autocomplete.

Always a good read.

In that screenshot alone they had offers for enough space to handle 18 of the 20 people. But they just have to be an asshole about it.

weird vendetta against wind power

It’s not weird, it’s extremely simple. He’s a child. He doesn’t like the look of them, so he hates them. And since he hates them, they’re bad. Even if they’re in the middle of nowhere.

Maybe we can get the school shooters to shoot at ICE instead.

That’s not how precedent works. And just like in these cases, if the jury at those trials decides they aren’t guilty of what they’re accused of, they would be acquitted as well. That’s the purpose of a jury trial and the requirement for the prosecution to prove their case to a group of average people.

Forced arbitration provisions have been thrown out before. So have contract clauses that ban class actions.

A company can put whatever they want in their agreements, whether it is enforceable is a completely different story, and things are tossed out by courts all the time.

I was curious where the telematics came from, and how they could correlate that with specific accidents…

The telematics data came from Cambridge Mobile Telematics, or CMT, which supplies DriveWell technology used by insurance companies, fleets and various safe-driving programs.

DriveWell isn’t necessarily an app you’d recognize by that name. The technology can live inside an insurer’s branded app and automatically detect trips using the phone’s sensors and location data. Depending on the program, it can record speeding, hard braking, aggressive acceleration, phone interaction and likely crashes.

If you’ve ever agreed to let your insurance company watch you drive in exchange for a discount, there’s a decent chance you’ve met this general species of electronic hall monitor.

Bet that 2% discount isn’t looking like such a good deal anymore to some people.

It really depends on the facility. Some are better than others. They vary wildly and it’s hard for you as a consumer to know which ones are good and which are bad. Some large zoos have extensive conservation programs and focus around education, and some are just animals in jail for entertainment. From the outside it’s hard to tell the difference a lot of the time.

It’s one of the reasons I support Alveus Sanctuary and their recent expansions and future plans. Their facilities and programs are based around video streaming and chat interaction, instead of in person exhibits. They have collaborative events with streamers, etc. in person to help further their reach to new people and educate viewers that otherwise may never interact at all with that type of content. Otherwise all of the animals have limited human interaction only with the employees. Those in person collaborations are always about educating the viewers about the animals and various societal links related to them. Things like pesticide use on bugs and how that propagates up the food chain, selective breeding and trade of exotic animals, amphibians and environmental pollution, etc.

And yet the Mint says they’ll be in circulation, which indicates they will be distributed as legal tender.

Buying collectors coins direct from the mint always costs more than face value. That’s nothing new or special.

The mint violating the law to mint this as legal tender (since they claim they’ll be in circulation too) is the actual story.

Don’t know this specific situation, but there are animals in captivity because they’re unable to be released back into the wild for various reasons. Things like animals being actively rehabilitated. Or ones that are now animal ambassadors used to teach people about the species or parts of human society that negatively affect wildlife. Maybe because they are unable to fly anymore, or they imprinted on humans, are unable to forage or hunt properly, etc.

Various distro and general forums and GitHub/similar sites. I’ve come across several over the last few years. The types of places you go for actual help from people with knowledge and experience. Not just various social media sites.

It’s a small amount in the grand scheme, but they’re vocal. All it takes is one raging asshole for a normie first trying out Linux and looking for a solution to an issue to be driven away entirely.

Would really like to understand how oral semalglutode contains something like 70x the active ingredient of subQ semalglutode, yet the oral is cheaper.

Not to defend the drug price bullshit in any way, everything is more expensive than it should be across the board… but if those price differences are a pill versus a prefilled autoinjector, that’s a big difference in material and manufacturing cost per dose.

A hundred years from now they’ll have a value, as American Nazi memorabilia. There is always a value in old coinage and relics.

That’s pretty normal when you’re buying small amounts directly from the mint. You really only do that when you are looking to collect, and intend to hold them in mint condition until the value is increased from rarity years down the line.

This isn’t particularly special other than the fact that the Mint is barred by law from making coins for living presidents. Well, until now of course because of Trump’s massively inflated ego, complete lack of self awareness, and ignoring laws.

You assume he didn’t leave his weapons loaded. And that he hadn’t modified them with a hair trigger, etc.

This is the type of person that has an entire gun room, not just a safe or two, an entire room dedicated to guns.

From my experience as a new end user with basic questions and issues, it’s pretty normal for a decent chunk of other linux users in general. I’ve met more angry Linux people when asking for help than I ever have for any other OS or software.

It’s a small minority I’m sure, but they’re extremely vocal individuals.

That helps a bit but doesn’t fix studios not remixing audio properly from the theater mix to home audio where the majority of people have basic stereo. No excuse since every physical format and online service supports multiple audio streams.

They claim voter fraud every time anyway.

Hell Trump was complaining about fraud when he won. Twice.

You don’t have a screwdriver? M.2 screws don’t use any sort of special screw head. They’re almost always a regular phillips screw size #0 or #1, maybe even being cut for a flathead to work as well.

I don’t think I’ve ever even seen a drive come with a screwdriver.

The M.2 screw itself usually comes with your motherboard. But even then, they’re fairly standard. The specification is for a M2-0.4 x 3mm screw.
