Why is screw DLC legal? Why are people ok with companies preventing people from working in their own devices?

Man I love it when billionaire assholes finally figure out what the rest of the world has been saying since the beginning.

Good? Even if Tesla wasn’t shit it’s probably for the best if one company doesn’t make up the majority of an industry.

And normally this would be good for Tesla as it’d indicate the industry is growing a lot. So even if they aren’t most of it their total sales would probably increase.

Which YouTube app is broken now? Revanced still works fine for me.

Unfortunately, most of that (lying, chasing, not reporting a crash) isn’t actually illegal (for pigs). Police have a stupid amount of leeway from the law.

Really, it should be illegal at the state level in every state to chase people. I’ve lived in a city where the PD had that: police could not chase; they’d just find them later.

Yeah. Last time I checked I couldn’t get paid much to go hiking in the woods.

Maaaaybe if I wanted to be a park ranger or firewatcher (is that real?) but from my knowledge those pay dick.

When I got a vasectomy, it was like 20 before they wanted to do a fertility test.

Who needs to turn their sperm release on and off so quickly? I understand wanting it to be easier than surgery but no one needs it so fast that you flip a switch. Deciding to have kids is a huge decision that often takes months of fucking to succeed at.

At that time the galaxy was home to over one hundred quintillion (100,000,000,000,000,000,000) sapient beings.

That…seems like too many. Earth will probably cap around 10B people. That’s 10B planets with Earth-like populations. A search says Coruscant has 1T people on it, so that’d be 100M Coruscants. But I have to assume Coruscant is on the outer edge of population densities. Most would probably be lightly colonized like most of the world we see in the movies.

But then Star Wars is well known for just being waay out there will numbers and not being even close to realistic. :p

Which is a good thing because Imperial HR doesn’t mess around.

It’s been a while since I watched the prequels, but the idea I got was everyone knew the Jedi existed: they were major players in the galactic senate as you referenced. But very few people would ever get to see Jedis use force powers. They might see them brandish a lightsaber. Which to a culture who had space ships, blasters, and the ability to block lightsabers (even if the materials were rare), laser swords might have seemed antiquated and quaint.

And the powers the Jedi seemed to use in populated places the most often were mind powers which aren’t necessarily observable: even Luke watching Obi-Wan mind-trick a stormtrooper was baffled. Seeing Yoda throw ships around might be a thing only a handful of people saw in a century and became little more than legend.

Ooor I might be rationalizing a lot of plot holes without realizing it. :)

The majority of businesses and a lot of consumers. 46% of steam users. Few years it’ll be the majority.

FCC already has regulations on maximum power. These emitters are usually dozens of feet off the ground as well.

This isn’t regulatory. The auctions companies bid on and win have provisions in them that require companies to utilize the spectrum in X years. They must supply coverage if they bought the spectrum; they can’t sit on it.

I don’t have any clothes that need to be ironed. If I buy a shirt it comes out of the dryer wrinkled, it’s fucking gone. Ain’t nobody got time for that shit.

Not got much takeout lately have you? That’s not expensive for a meal.

Old Toys r Us was mostly just a warehouse vibe anyways. But it had a big box store level of toys to look over. It was the highlight of my childhood trips to the stores. They don’t really need to pretend to be the old FAO Schwarz.

To be fair, TheReportOfTheWeek wasn’t just reviewing Popeyes normal food. It was Popeyes’ cheddar biscuit butterfly shrimp. I definitely don’t go to Popeyes for seafood.
