Guillotines are more environmentally friendly.

This is how I found out that Americans don't even have full pints.

The UK doesn't want to give up pints of beer because they're bigger than a half liter.

American ones are smaller.

I always wonder it's what we see now. 

Supreme court justices are lifetime appointments and can freely reinterpret the law to mean what ever they want.

If LLMs just copied stack overflow they'd respond to every question with "Closed as duplicate. Question already answered."

Such a badly written title.

I read that thinking, yeah it sounds dystopian but who has coins, and found out:

1. Most of them aren't coin operated.
2. It sounds like they're getting less common.

Should have called it "the rise and fall of pay-to-use elevators".

I think you meant to post this to /c/dataisunreadable

I really thought this post was going to be about Linux.

Good to see that 100x developers still don't get their own office, just a gimp mask.

He's from Germany. 

Anything less bland than an American chain might kill him.

I'm amazed a reviewer read the code.

I remember playing Max Payne. There was some battle in a bar against a guy with a shotgun. If you timed it right between reloads you could run up to the guy, stand on the bar so your guns were exactly level with his face and empty two Uzi clips point blank into his face before he could reload.

Then you would run out of ammo and he would one shot kill you.

This is a very American thing.

Measuring popularity in terms of money spent.

By this metric, spending time with loved ones or going for a short walk has zero popularity.

Oh it's much worse than that.

Cops have used Flock's FreeForm search feature to look for people with tattoos and wearing specific sport shirts, and searches sometimes include the target's race, according to data reviewed by 404 Media.

I'm not sure that it's *better*, but it's hilarious when you go off and do all the side quests and end up completely over powered by the time you get round to the main quest and just beat the shit out of the main bad guy without realizing that they're important.

I mean it's important to distinguish between actual scientific tests and random managerial bullshit and wasting a day on "training".

The scientific test, assuming this is real science, and not more random crap found on a website, will just be based on observation. People with autism tend describe individual pictures while neurotypicals tend to impose a narrative on the whole collection.

There's no good or bad here, they're different ways of describing the world. You don't win if you're more autistic or neurotypical or whatever.

On the other hand training days like you're describing are always a complete waste of time. The aim is to turn up, do the minimal amount of engagement to make it look like you're a team player, and then just try to fit in with everyone else. There's is no point in wasting time thinking about course materials. The guy who wrote them was just bullshiting.

If it makes you feel better, if it was actually sunrise on summer solstice at Stonehenge, there would have probably been people in the pictures. I've heard it gets busy.

I think the easiest way to describe how it feels is it is like having a tooth taken out.

You've had it removed because the pain is too much, and now finally that pain is gone, but instead you're sat there feeling puffy and swollen from the recent trauma, and you're just constantly aware of this gap where there used to be something present.

Just like going to the dentist, it gets better though. And I'd do it again in a heart beat if I had to make the same decision.

Don't wait for the next laptop, just install Linux now.

It sounds like your laptop is completely unusable anyway, and you can dual boot while you're figuring out if everything works

I've been using rdx since the end of support for 3rd party clients to occasionally lurk.

I appreciate the work you've done. Thank you for all your effort.

It's not really legal in the UK. It's unenforceable on claims under 5k and for claims over 5k the courts will make a case by case decision if arbitration is appropriate.

However, lots of companies still add these bullshit clauses as a way to bully people out of seeing a lawyer.
