I think that makes sense too. Sure a drunk cyclist is less of a problem than a drunk motor vehicle operator.

But as the third party you still don’t want 100 kg (200 pounds) of dude and aluminium frame running into you at 20 km/h (12.4 mph), if you are a pedestrian, a second cyclist, or a biker.

Yikes. Did he make through?

Yes it’s very common, which is why everyone of even mild intelligence knows to check the results of a plain full text search.

The argument is utterly stupid.

Ignoring that it is building on a fantasy reality for the moment. Even if you had free healthcare, and if only the financial costs of survival motivated people to get jobs, then the other costs of living, like for food and shelter, would still provide that motivation.

Whoever came up with that stupid word filter and decided to follow through on it without proper human review that the filter matched what they meant to find, is pretty trans-intelligent.

Ist das beim TÜV auch gestaffelt, dass Neuwagen noch nicht so oft müssen?

Bei uns in der Schweiz ist es typischerweise so 5, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2 Jahre. Aber wie immer sind wir zu föderalistisch, als dass es einheitlich wäre

This week I heard from a network group lead of a university hospital, that they have a similar issue. Some medical devices that come with control computers can’t be upgraded, because they were only certified for medical use with the specific software they came with.

They just isolate those devices as much as possible on the network, not much else to do, when there is no official support and recertification for upgrading. And of course nobody wants to spend half a million on a new imaging device when the old one is still fine except for the OS of the control computer.

Sounds like a shitty place to be, I pity those guys.

That said, if you were talking about normal client computers then it’s inexcusable.

6 arc seconds, not a very well rounded individual

Friend of mine had the same scenario in high school. The only one who knew was the twin sister of the girlfriend. The rest of the family would never have accepted a non-muslim. It’s probably the only way to do this until she’s an adult and can tell them to fuck off.

it’s much easier to just substract 2 from 2000, “IIMM” duh!

For anyone wondering why this is wrong, there are two reasons:

1. The roman numeral system only traditionally contains subtractions from the next higher five- and tenfold symbol. So you can subtract I from V and X, X from L and C, C from D and M

2. The subtractions only generally allowed one symbol to be subtracted, with a few notable exceptions like XIIX for 18 and XXIIX for 28

Given 4/6 x > 5/6 y therefore x > 5/4 y

Marty’s Pizza must have been more than a quarter larger than Luis’. The kid is exactly right.

And the teacher is not flexible enough to engage outside their expectations for how the question was supposed to be answered.

Clearly the expectation was for the kids to take the unstated assumption that the two pizzas were of the same size, and reject the premise as unreasonable (note the heading “Reasonableness”).

In games these categories of audio are calculated and mixed locally in real time, for movies they are mixed down to a single track and compressed ahead of time.

These days having three audio tracks would not be a significant problem, compared to the high resolution video track. But I guess the industry never changed.

I feel like the real issue, is that we only get one volume bar. If it was normal to define both the minimal and maximal volume setting and have the players stretch the given dynamic range into that then it would all be good.

Since the others tackled polygraph’s uselessness, I want to comment on another angle:

I think fundamentally in such a case it will be easy for you to convince yourself that you’re telling the truth in the moment you say it.

After all you are telling the truth to a version of the question, and you only have an assumption that the questioner means a different version of the question. Even if it’s a good assumption, nothing in particular makes your version worse, in fact you could argue it’s better.

That combined should make it easy to mentally gloss over the contradiction. So I think your physiological reaction will be indistinguishable from telling the truth on control questions.

I don’t remember Fern being sexualized or the camera lingering weirdly… Only that they give Frieren the typical chest envy, and have Fern fill out quite well in contrast, but that’s played as a joke I’d say.

But it could also be that I’m desensitized, having seen so much actual straight up fan service by now.

it won’t change shit if its Debian 2

So at best kernel 2.2.xx good luck with the hardware support. Flatpack is not a solution for everything.

Sooo… agitating?

Not really, she really is just an old elf lady who looks like a young adult human. There’s nothing sexualised about her, and she’s not childlike. For example here she is next to a human child who becomes her apprentice:

And here she is talking to a human priest she was adventuring with 50 years ago, he’s grown old, she hasn’t changed:

And here she is head patting him, to give him reassurance that he did well after he confides that he never felt like he figured out how to be “a grown up” and just kept faking it while growing old:

The human child is Fern, and the old Priest Heiter picked her up after she was orphaned by a demon attack. Heiter asks Frieren to keep taking care of Fern after his death, and mentor her in magic.

It’s a really nice relationship driven story with an interesting storyline and magic system.

I think that only works with hot foods that don’t actually raise your bodies temperature

It feels hot and it affects circulation and stuff. But the physical heating effect is pretty minuscule. If you think about it, a human is more or less like 75kg of water at 36 degrees celsius, if you add 0.25kg of water at 50 degrees celsius (cup of tea) you end up with a body of 75.25kg at 36.05 degrees celsius.
