How does it work with someone like Taylor Swift, who According to Forbes, Swift is the first musician to reach 10-figure status solely based on songwriting and performances rather than brand deals, makeup lines, or business ventures?

You can argue they should be more charitable, but that really can’t be required. You could also say taxes should be higher past a certain point, but they currently aren’t and that’s not any individual’s fault.

Also, I’m using Taylor swift as an example, but I mean more generally a person that captures worldwide attention for their art.

Apple seems to disagree with you.

I’m pretty sure the message behind All in all, it’s just another brick in the wall isn’t that every individual brick is incredibly special and important to the entire structure and that even one missing brick would jeopardize the whole thing.

Is one brick not only as strong as the one next to it?

Obviously not, you can break one brick in a wall without taking the whole wall down.

She’s upset because she didn’t get 5th place.

It’s worse than that: she did get 5^th place.

In March 2022, while swimming for the University of Kentucky in the 200-yard freestyle at the NCAA championship (her final competitive event race), Gaines tied for fifth place with University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas, who subsequently became the first openly trans woman champion in the NCAA women’s division after winning the 500-yard freestyle later at the same meet. While Thomas held the fifth-place trophy after the finish, Gaines held an equally-sized sixth-place trophy while waiting for another fifth-place trophy in the mail.

Polygon’s Unrivaled series, specifically Bowser’s military hierarchy. It wasn’t originally about kobolds if the title of the video didn’t give it away.

Looking at healthline.com (I don’t know if they’re actually reputable, but we’re just looking at servings and prices, so why not) we see the pea protein powders cost between $0.47-$2.84 per 28 grams (which is about one serving for the 3 powders I looked at) and whey protein powders cost between $0.78-$7.27 per serving.

One of the websites they link sells both a protein and whey option, both at the same price. I’m not sure that cost is really a factor for deciding between the two.

Some creation club stuff, I guess.

And you do have at least some variety, too.

Why would you not want someone to stop drunk driving? I get that we hate cops, but we should all really hate drunk driving more.

I think the cart doing weird things has something to do with the framerate. It’s been years since I tried playing skyrim, but I vaguely remember that the physics was somehow tied to the framerate.

And this post on the steam forum seems to confirm it https://steamcommunity.com/app/72850/discussions/0/3195866872030068939/

Which one? Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007), Modern Warfare 2 (2009), Modern Warfare 3 (2011), Modern Warfare (2019), Modern Warfare II (2022), or Modern Warfare III (2023)?

To add to the second part, it’s in one of the first settlements you visit after the tutorial and has a short quest where you rescue the kidnapped sheriff and potentially find a new one to help keep the town safe. It’s probably pretty memorable because a lot of people would have gotten to it, and there’s a giant roller coaster in the background that you can climb up and walk along.

Mandatory parking minimums will just incentivize driving and make biking even worse, even if you also install some bike parking near the streets. It’ll make all buildings more expensive because they’ll need double the land so they can have the off-street parking you want, everything will be spaced further apart because half the land is dedicated to parking, and inevitably the streets will become more car friendly because everyone is driving anyway, might as well try to get the drivers where they want quickly and efficiently.

The ads open with video of each metro’s familiar skyline and the narrator’s voice announcing, for example, “Attention, Miami law enforcement.” Beyond that, the spots are identical, inviting officers to “join ICE and help us catch the worst of the worst. Drug traffickers. Gang members. Predators,” according to a review of the ads on the ad-tracking service AdImpact.

The 30-second spots began running in mid-September in Albuquerque, New Mexico; Boston; Chicago; Denver; New York; Philadelphia; Sacramento, California; Seattle; and Washington, D.C. Adding to the list a week ago: Atlanta; Dallas; El Paso, Texas; Houston; Miami; Salt Lake City; and San Antonio.

As of Monday, total spending on the ads had topped $6.5 million, with the most spent since mid-September being $853,745 in the Seattle area. However, Atlanta saw the most in the past week, more than $947,000, according to AdImpact.

They’re just going after the police. Because why not

Plus, watching a new movie with basically the same story go over all the plot points and give you a sense of deja vu will really add to the experience.

That has an altogether different kind of solution !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Cool, good to know there are states where you’re at least partly right.

even on þe freeway where you’re not crossing into oncoming lanes

Doesn’t really work with

Subd. 2a.Increased speed limit when passing.

Notwithstanding subdivision 2, the speed limit is increased by ten miles per hour over the posted speed limit when the driver:

(1) is on a two-lane highway having one lane for each direction of travel;

(2) is on a highway with a posted speed limit that is equal to or higher than 55 miles per hour;

(3) is overtaking and passing another vehicle proceeding in the same direction of travel; and

(4) meets the requirements in section 169.18.

where you’re allowed to speed only when crossing into oncoming traffic.

Then name one of them. If you’re too lazy to go and look at the laws for that state, I can do it for you if you want, but you need to give even a single state of where you think you’re allowed to ignore the speed limit while passing someone. Here, I’ll give you an example:

Alabama on page 64: On two-lane roads with traffic moving in both directions, you may pass traffic on the left if the pass can be completed safely without exceeding the speed limit.

Most states won’t explicitly state that you aren’t allowed to speed while passing, but they definitely won’t tell you that speeding is fine.
