My guess is that he is only being charged with provable swats after he was 18, greatly reducing the counts.

Drain cleaner can also be lye based, or a mix of potassium hydroxide and sodium hydroxide. Also, every container should have its actual ingredients on the bottle, I wouldn’t assume anything you intend on using off label.

“Escaped research monkeys” isn’t even that creative of a start to a sci-fi or horror movie. It’s so cliche I can’t believe it happened

I just bought the F.E.A.R bundle from steam a week ago or so, and beat the first game in the series 20 years after release. And other than a fan made .dll patch, it was great. Lacked some depth more modern titles have, but I also noticed how much effort was put into some details that were surprising for its age.

Witcher 3 was also self published, and it came down to 70% off after a few years.

A self-driving vehicle is not exclusive to Elon.

I prefer electric cars over gas ones, and think that at some point computer controlled transportation will be more reliable than the average human driver. These aren’t endorsements of any person or company.

Why are you wrapping this up so much with the one dude?

Its like saying that you can’t endorse online shopping unless you also like Bezos.

I had a similar experience on my YouTube TV app, I was watching old history channels in bed, and there was a full length documentary for an “ad”. I could have skipped after 15 seconds or whatever, but I had to INTERACT with the TV before it would resume. I was distracted so it ended up playing like 15 minutes of an hour+ documentary ad.

Basically, grandma bought a house, hasn’t paid off the loan, and the house is foreclosed. He wants to buy the house (maybe with his Grandma’s blessing) for the remainder of the loan amount. Because the “value” of the house, as determined by the market, is much higher than the amount remaining in the loan, he would have to pay taxes for acquiring a “gift” amount of the difference.

It’s complicated because it gets into wealth transfer laws, and how taxes work in a particular system.

On one hand, generational wealth is a real problem because it lets the rich get richer down their lineage especially for the ultra wealthy, but on the other, if my parents want to give me a house that they paid for and own, why should the government be able to demand some 20k in taxes for my inheritance?

I also think this is fairly poorly presented or polled data, but your first point isn’t quite correct I don’t think. Those percentages are not mutually exclusive, it could be a much smaller percentage of influence that covers multiple categories. “A celebrity caused me to change my opinion and also go vote and their stance made me like them” is all possible from the same interaction.

Right? I tried my hand at welding a rec tube to a plate to make an oil tank for knife making. I had to use epoxy to keep it water tight.

Yeah, this post is not fully correct. The lead nail in the coffin is not that lead exists, it’s that we find it in certain mineral matrixes that don’t form with lead.

Zircon is the most widely referenced mineral in uranium-lead dating, as the mineral rejects lead during its formation, but will incorporate uranium. So when we find zircon with lead in it, it means that the uranium has decayed and turned into lead while being stuck there, and the percentage of uranium to lead in a sample lets us determine its time of formation.

I believe it is where I am too, 36+ is full-time for benefits requirements. Apparently the insurance company asked my employer to please make sure I was working at least 36hrs a week, because for a month or so I was only getting to 32.

It is not illegal to make backup copies for yourself of games you have purchased and own.

Fixed, earring not eating.

Deleting itself due to sanctions is a bold move, but ultimately an understandable one. Installing a replacement software from some random company is out of line and a malicious use of their permissions.

They’re saying that the theory was that they were ear ring SHAPED, but actually communication devices.

I’m also in the second camp. Plus, censoring the bad words on specific users is a few too many steps closer to don’t say gay on the internet. Is ass ok but not fuck? Is sex talk forbidden? All mention of anatomy, including general questions about health? How about they ban anti-capitalist language too? The tiktok language phenomenon shows that users will absolutely just make do getting around communication bans, “unalive” and “le$beans” being the most popular. This type of censorship has already happened on other platforms, and it’s all bullshit and useless.

Good! That’s what I want to hear.

There will always be another shitty person and yes it is exhausting. My partner is non-binary, I understand some of it. But online is literally the easiest place to be an ID and not a person. Don’t put anything in your profile, don’t hint stuff with your usernames, make your pfp a cartoon sheep, and only express anything that might bring harassment in places that will accept it, and make that a separate identity. I use the same username everywhere and it’s unique, but I’m also not a target.

I can empathize with it being a problem, but there are (annoying and unfair) steps to mitigate it. It might even involve removing or abandoning all of your online identities so you can’t be tracked down, but people get doxed all the time and have to start over.

Constant harassment? No because I block people at the drop of a hat. Unprompted friend request? Blocked. Playing music in global chat? Blocked. Shitty username? Blocked. Don’t deal with people, a single infraction is enough to remove internet strangers forever.
