You can see the left candle stick, but not the right one. This is despite the fact that the reflection should be transposed left (like the clock in the middle). In other words, the reflection is wrong, which isn’t immediately obvious, but gives an ‘off’ vibe.
It depends what you mean by ‘security’. Obviously, by introducing more layers, you have more places where exploits can life. However, the biggest threat by orders of magnitude is being tricked into giving stuff up, and that risk will remain constant.
Non-human, uncaring machines who amass and hoard wealth beyond human comprehension honestly doesn’t sound any different than what we have now.
Ah ok. That’s not how I understood your comment initially, but that’s reasonable.
Even if we can’t, should we not try? It’s only, as you say, a few thousand. We can spare the resources to keep them locked up/under house arrest/whatever for the rest of their natural lives if we must.
If we must execute people to heal the wounds inflicted by their sheer callousness, then so be it. But I don’t really accept the argument that anyone is “irredeemable” without even trying.
These two graphs cover different time periods. It looks like the monetization of X lines up with that hump of sharply increased knife crime at the end there.
What, do you think, would be the worst material from which to build a trebuchet and have it still function?
What are the chances that visiting Steven Hawking is the most interesting/fun thing you can do, if you could freely time travel? I’d much rather go look at dinosaurs, or visit the construction of the pyramids, or go listen to Martin Luther King Jr.'s speech.
Even if my goal was to meet a single scientist, I think I’d personally pick any other. Pliny the Elder, Marie Curie, Albert Einstein…
Not to be rude to Mr. Hawking (well, maybe he deserves it, I don’t know what got him in to the Epstein files…), but a thorougly average party is simply not likely to attract very many time travellers.
Whenever you enter a new (sub-)culture, you have to learn the social norms. Some people have an easier time, others have a harder time. There’s not much advice we can give you, since every culture is different. Some value privacy, others openness and honesty. Some communicate stuff via head nods, others by how far you stand away, and others by pitching the tone of their voices.
You will learn too, but it will take lots of exposure and trying. Some people will dislike you for not understanding, others will be forgiving. How much you should make allowances and whether it makes sense to tell them that you are autistic depends on their specific culture and personalities. So, uh, good luck.
note: (sub-)culture here does not mean only the nation you’re in, but it can change group-to-group. Essentially it’s the vibe that a group has.
It’s not really “know as 過労死” in Japanese. That’s just the words for “excess”, “work”, and “death”. That’s kinda like saying “it’s known as ‘overworking to death’ in Britain”.
So do goats, but they’re plenty tasty.
Finally, a political cartoon without the politics!
Quite often, I find that leaving a post up has value. It nukes context for the posts below it, which is bad. It’s also not great if only part of a larger post is bad, since you lose all of it. Lastly, with a deleted post, it’s unclear if the creator learned from it, or if they removed it to avoid the backlash.
Kind of like how a piston in an engine also kinda just “shakes about” (because of explosions or steam or whatever) and yet delivers a lot of power.
Disclaimer: I have no knowledge of how these systems work. I’m basically just guessing
If the water is overly basic or acidic, and you concentrate it via evaporation, then you can damage the equipment at an accelerated pace. But even then, it’s indeed a matter of money.
That’s not making an argument for privacy, that’s being a jerk.
It doesn’t need to be potable, but since it’s using evaporative cooling, it does need to be somewhat clean. You don’t want to leave gunk all over your cooling equipment.
They are a supervillain from the Green Lantern comics
Based on the narrator’s actions they did not appreciate being called “a man”. The mom was therefore an asshole for that implication.
The narrator is an asshole because the mom needed help, and they were in a position to help, but they refused to.
(BTW, I personally don’t know enough about either person, so I’m not going to cast judgement)
Every rule has a back story. You can easily imagine a bunch of kids yelling at each other as they bike down the street. But you cannot make a sign that says “punk kids not allowed”.
