The only argument I ever have in these discussions is that if you have to spell it differently to get the pronunciation “correct”, maybe it’s not a very solid stance?

Get cervical cancer? That’s kinda fucked up

Obviously, there are plenty of reasons to decry this. However, actually paying the end user is a million times better than the harvesting that has been going on for years with not much tangible benefit to users.

Ah, but you’re calculating the area, so it would be length * width, not just multiplying by 2.

So you’re looking at 25 at the bottom and 49 at the top, making your average 37 per layer.

Not sure where you’d land at 12 nuts per layer on average. If you go off 5 nuts “wide” as your diameter you’d end up with at least 20 nuts at the bottom layer (area = π(5/2)² = 19.6).

I don’t know the logistics behind some of these giveaways, but it doesn’t have to mean that the devs are giving up their revenue. It could be gog just fronting the “cost”, no?

The URL is direct to gog tho? Unless you mean you didn’t recognize gog as a reputable website

Its pretty clear to me that they were in the middle of an amazing nap and they got woken up by some old fucker yelling “FOOL OF A TOOK”

I have never heard the phrase “runs on the edge”, and the article uses some form of it a half dozen times.

My only results for “edge devices” refer to networking. Is that what they’re trying to say?

I think my sticking point is that it’s not 30 of your coins, necessarily. This is probably where I’m going wrong, but I might only have 100 coins, but there’s a multitude of people that have 1,000 coins, and some still that have 10,000 coins.

I feel like I’m muddling up production/living standards and just plain wealth, but not every individual would need to give 30%. There would be a total amount equaling 30% that is re-allocated.

That is not my interpretation on the paper. It’s not taking 30% and spreading it. It’s we only ever needed to be making 30% of our total being reasonably distributed for everyone to reach those standards.

“Provisioning decent living standards (DLS) for 8.5 billion people would require only 30% of current global resource and energy use, leaving a substantial surplus for additional consumption, public luxury, scientific advancement, and other social investments.”

That is definitely not what is presented in what you quoted.

Out of our current productive capabilities (how much money is “created” if you want), we would only need 30% of it to get 8.5 billion people to a “decent living standard”.

That isnt a 30% reduction, it’s only needing to make 30% of what we already are doing.

How would you go about using a different subdomain without something like a reverse proxy? Heck, in my head that’s almost the only reason I use a reverse proxy

Just because I’m curious, is the fact that this is a “risky gamble” concerning to you? Or that a lawsuit such as this is expected to be drawn out, likely putting a large deterrent on less affluent victims from seeking justice?

In regards to your apple mouse example, surely it’s relevant to know how long the charging process is. The hangups I would have are when the interruption happens, how quickly is it resolved, similar to your points about the firmware on the grill.

If it takes 30 seconds to recharge to a point of usability, fine, no real harm. But if it takes 10-20 minutes to get to a usable state, then we have an issue.

A related scenario is if the Nintendo switch drains completely of battery; even plugging it into a dock and trying to play docked, you still have to wait upwards of 20 minutes to give it enough juice to boot back up.

By the looks of it, it’s 30% to NYC, 30% to Texas, and 30% to California. So 10% for literally everywhere else in the US. That’s gotta be close, right?

They had it coming anyway.

You rang?
