Pyr_Pressure,

It’s because that’s the level the average American can understand.

Pyr_Pressure,

Trump cult will just claim it’s all the more likely the jury was rigged.

Pyr_Pressure,

It’s really not that difficult to wear a seatbelt, I don’t understand the people that don’t. It’s less restrictive than the belt holding up your pants and it’s not like there is an annoying shoulder strap.

Pyr_Pressure,

Lots of healthy, happy people with disposable income.

Pyr_Pressure,

I have been trying to win one game for each class, and it took me forever to win with warrior and have not been able to with mage, but I don’t want to skip mage before going to next class.

Mages are so squishy :(

Pyr_Pressure,

Definitely think owning dogs should require a license and a test of some sort like driving a vehicle.

Can’t control a 120lb dog? Class B license instead of Class A license.

Only allowed to buy dogs under 100lbs.

Don’t understand how feeding and training works? No license for you.

Licenses for being able to own non-fixed animals as well. Being able to breed dogs and cats needs to come with way more responsibility as well.

I imagine it was a typo*, but this article in Nature reports that in specifics circumstances the median maximum that people can perceive a difference may be around 500hz, with the maximum in their test possibly being as high as 800hz.

Normally though it seems closer to 50-90hz, but I’m on the road and haven’t delved too deeply into it

Edit: Type to Typo

Pyr_Pressure,

Not the original you replied to. And I had a typo when trying to spell typo 😂 just adding to the conversation. Wasn’t disputing you, just meant the may have meant refresh rate instead of resolution. Easy mistake. It’s still quite disputed how well eyes can tell the difference in refresh rates.

Pyr_Pressure,

I think there was a case somewhere that the prisoner was sentenced to death, and was executed ina fashion that didn’t quite work.

But technically he did die for a minute or two before his heart restarted, and he sued to be released from prison because he technically served his sentence.

Pyr_Pressure,

Unfortunately it doesn’t look like it. I misremembered a few details, he “died” from natural causes in prison, not execution. The court ruled “Schreiber is either alive, in which case he must remain in prison, or he is dead, in which case this appeal is moot.”

His name was Benjamin Schreiber.

Pyr_Pressure,

I mean, HR is being paid. They should be going through the resume and compiling the data themselves.

Instead they require the applicants to do it for free, despite the fact the applicants are probably having to do it dozens of times trying to apply for multiple jobs.

Pyr_Pressure,

Has the final movie even come out yet? I remember watching the first and second but I thought there was supposed to be a third still on the way?

Feels way too soon for a remake.

Pyr_Pressure,

Why wouldn’t you anyways?

Usually the only benefit to the big grocery chains is cheaper prices.

If they raised their prices, it’s probably just as expensive to go to the smaller local shops and you will get better quality at the same time.

Tire toxicity faces fresh scrutiny after salmon die-offs (phys.org)

“You’ve got a chemical cocktail in these tires that no one really understands and is kept highly confidential by the tire manufacturers,” said Nick Molden, CEO of Emissions Analytics. “We struggle to think of another consumer product that is so prevalent in the world and used by virtually everyone, where there is so...

Pyr_Pressure,

Well, we call the stuff we breath “air” despite it being 80% nitrogen. It would be a bit weird saying we breath nitrogen. “Air” is a general catch-all term for the mixture of things that we breath.

AM radio law opposed by tech and auto industries is close to passing | Ars Technica (arstechnica.com)

A controversial bill that would require all new cars to be fitted with AM radios looks set to become a law in the near future. Yesterday, Senator Edward Markey (D-Mass) revealed that the “AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act” now has the support of 60 US Senators, as well as 246 co-sponsors in the House of Representatives, making...

Pyr_Pressure,

Do cars really need to have it though? They seem to be the only thing “targeted” to be forced into include something that can receive emergency broadcasts. Why not force homes to be outfitted with an AM radio? Everyone lives somewhere (mostly, unfortunately) but not everyone owns a car. If they really want people to have access to AM radio emergency broadcasts maybe they should supply people with portable AM radios rather than forcing car companies to include it in their cars and increasing the price of vehicles since they will require larger antennae and more wiring than just FM radio or no radio at all.

Pyr_Pressure,

Can’t remember the movie but it had someone get kidnapped by a group of cannibals or something and they kept them alive while chopping body parts of and cauterizing the wound, eating them slowly over time to keep them fresh. Don’t think I was able to finish it.

Pyr_Pressure,

I much prefer random ads anyways. Targeted ads are 90% something You’ve already recently bought.

With random ads sometimes you see something interesting that you didn’t even know you wanted because you didn’t know it even existed.

If I’m looking for a laptop I don’t care to see 1000 ads for laptops, I’m not going to just click an ad and buy one I need to research and deep dive into the kind I want.

It’s not bad, it allows more freedom. You don’t have to graduate in 4 years if you don’t want. If you’re working part time you can just take 3-4 courses a semester instead of 5 courses and just take your time.

You can also choose different time slots for different courses to fit your life style, like only morning courses or only afternoon courses, no courses on Fridays, etc. (depending on the course popularity and how many are available each semester.

Pyr_Pressure,

Yes

Pyr_Pressure,

It doesn’t cost anything to have less people. It costs lots to build houses and infrastructure to support those people.

Pyr_Pressure,

Personally I’ve never had an issue with Asus products but have had numerous quality issues with Acer. Bought a number of small Acer laptops and the hinges kept breaking because they only put one screw in the hold the hinge instead of two in many of them.

Pyr_Pressure,

I quite liked it, don’t usually like musical shows but the tunes are catchy and somewhat funny sometimes

Pyr_Pressure,

I wouldn’t mind if it were priced to actually make sense.

Like why would anything cost more than $1? Or even $0.01? Just greed and stupidity.

Microtransactions for cosmetic items that cost 25% or more of the base game itself are just insane. A whole game, or 4 cosmetic items, that must have taken sooo much effort to design those items to cost so much.

Pyr_Pressure,

If they don’t make any money they won’t bother with microtransactions at all.

So it’s either $0.01 for cosmetic items or they don’t make cosmetic items at all because You’ve already paid for the game, and making new things just costs them money.

Pyr_Pressure,

The very rare need for it seems like it would be best to just rent a camera when needed or buy a better specific use one for a toolbox rather than needing to carry a mediocre one around in your pocket 24/7
