The author of this is really twisting the story in his own favor. He leaves out the part where he launched public personal attacks against other faculty and students.

His department did try to work with him so that he could teach his class (which was completely outside his field of expertise, and is therefore against the general policies). They wanted him to co-teach with someone with knowledge in the field, but at that point he had completely ostricisized himself and no one wanted to work with him.

This is absolutely a situation where someone fucked around with a loaded gun, shot themselves in the foot and is now mad at everyone else because they didn’t help him shoot someone else.

Once again, this isn’t an OLED screen. It is an E Ink screen, like the black and white ones, but with color. And it folds, if you want that.

This is an E Ink screen: “The mooInk V features an 8-inch folding E Ink screen that’s been tested to survive over 200,000 bends.”

“The mooInk V features an 8-inch folding E Ink screen that’s been tested to survive over 200,000 bends.”

You could at least read the sub heading

As stated by another user, Wh is not a good metric for batteries because it will change depending on the load (voltage and current).

mAh is a strange unit, but it is the amount of stored charge (as in Coulombs) which does not depend on the load, so it makes sense to rate the capacity by this metric.

What if we did something to the virus so that it couldn’t make us sick, but still made our bodies thing we were sick?

That sounds like socialism which is bad because it’s bad. Look what happened in Canada, they didn’t pay animal and worker abusingly low prices and now they don’t have insanely high prices. Without causing these situations they are denying large parts of their population high sustained cortisol levels.

This is why we need to maintain our threats of annexation. We must provide them the stress that their government denies them.

The “willingly” makes the difference there. That changes it from negligence to intentional, and those are legally distinct.

If Amazon, or another marketplace, isn’t aware of the danger of a product sold by a vendor on their platform, it’s not clear if Amazon, or the market provider, is responsible. Amazon is arguing that they aren’t, but I don’t know enough of the law to say if that is a settled question.

Well yeah, that’s basically what the headline says.

In this administration, having committed fraud is a skill that you list at the top of your resume.

While the game can be “addicting”, it is mostly because it is fun to play. Not all “addicting” forms of entertainment need elevated ratings because they are fun to consume. We don’t increase the ratings for binge worthy TV shows and we don’t restrict books if they are page turners, so why should we with a video game. At some point people need to regulate the use of their time themselves.

Read the first sentence again. It was filed in a US district Court. The number was converted to pounds for the convenience of the BBC’s intended audience. The damages are in excess of 75000 so that it could qualify for federal, not state court.

A law firm capable of handling such a suit would probably bill at a rate of $2000/hr, or more.

If your numbers are right, then they could afford to pay for 20 hours of work. That’s probably not enough to even file the suit. Again, this assumes your numbers are right but even if they were 10x this it may still not make sense to file a suit.

Unfortunately, I don’t think the math works out in their favor.

There are fundamental differences between allowing minors to access health care that they require in a timely manner and letting a 19 year old rent a car.

Healthcare should be a right afforded to all people. Privileges are not rights and it is perfectly reasonable to restrict them based on age.

I don’t hate you for your opinion, but I do think you are misinformed on the subject.

While I too want more people to participate, I think we should also recognize that choosing not to vote is protected speech. That’s probably not why people don’t vote, so we should probably find other ways to encourage voting (holiday, more access to polls, etc.) Unfortunately, some repulsive people prefer it when fewer people vote.

Factorio, it’s fun from the first minute but you’ll still be learning new things after 1000 hours.

Give all of those things a try. None of them are “wrong”. Experiment and see what works best with the type of people you want to spend time with. Just don’t get discouraged if your success rate is low (some people just won’t be interested) and respect people’s decisions if they choose to ignore you.

Representatives are elected for 2 year terms.

Since it sounds like you are just getting into this, it may be helpful to know that Nintendo has confirmed that there will be a 2nd version of the device and it is likely to have full backwards compatibility (meaning it will play all of the games from version 1).

The release dates for this device are likely to be announced soon.

So if you can wait, you could either get the newest version or you could get the current version for a big discount.

2 x 10^34 for those people who like to use numbers to represent numbers in a sane way.

You should be able to select the version of the game that you want. Right click, manage,… ??? I forgot the rest but it’s fairly obvious from what I remember. You can just pick the most stable build of 1.## from the drop down.
