The fact that it lasted only for a week, or the fact that not even during that week could Israel keep their rockets in their pants?

I agree with you with the fact that it’s wild, very distopian sci-fi.
However, even it this very much an ethical no-no, I’m not sure which bit is the technically illegal part.
If he were selling normal sheep, that would be perfectly legal. Nobody would bat an eyelid, despite being similar treatment to animals.
Is it the cloning that is illegal? If he were to clone a species on the brink of extinction to re-populate an area, would that be ethical but illegal?
Is the problem that he’s cloning without authorisation? Who decides whether we can bring new animals to life via cloning? Is there a Ministry of Clones that needs to authorise people to clone stuff?
Yes, but they’re making people quit instead. They don’t need to pay severance to employees who quit because of RTO.
Oh so you’re equally happy with whatever winner? No preference whatsoever? Interesting to see that on an election with such wildly different candidates.
Well then bring it on. If feels too big to fail, but if (hypothetically) Amazon were to go under, the world would be a better place.
This is the Pro, the mid-cycle refresh with more power and whatnot.
Sure, just like other brick and mortar stores can refuse to give you backups of a DVD you own.
As long as the installer works offline this is just as good. It’s up to you to store it in whichever format you prefer so that you don’t lose it - hard drive, thumb drive, DVD…
If you nuke your computers hard drive with the installers of your games, or you step on your blu rays with games and break them, then you lose access to them. As it’s always been, no matter the format?
Cool, but it’s missing trackpads and Linux…
I never knew how much I needed the trackpads until I played on the deck - unlike with the joysticks, I can actually play FPSs!!
I’m not a lawyer but, I know when you file for a patent you can do that in just one country or internationally (which is significantly more expensive). Skimming through the Wikipedia article it seems to be talking about that, but first you need to have filed for the patent internationally and not in just one country.
From what I’ve read about this topic, it sounds like this is a patent active in Japan only.
I’m not talking disingenuously, I’m all pro-electric. In fact it looks like my next car will be a Taycan, unless something changes unexpectedly.
But counting engine rebuilds as an inevitable matter of life is rather disingenuous too. My other (“hobby”) car is a 1977, so that’s 47 years now, and still on the original engine and transmission. This is not an uber-reliable statistical anomaly: it’s an unreliable piece of shit (a handmade sports car from a small manufacturer) but despite that, the block is still solid and original. Engine rebuilds are not common, unlike batteries which have an ever-degrading chemistry no matter how good they are.
And I strongly disagree on good design being a single point mass of over 700 kg concentrated in one block. The “skateboard” around suspension components and chassis is the most common design for a reason.
Fair, but in its lifetime, the maintenance for my 20-year-old car has cost less than one single battery swap. Last year was a bad one and it cost me £500 between maintenance and repairs. A battery swap for a Tesla is well, well above 10k. A Taycan’s batteries cost about £20k to replace and it’s nothing to do with being a Porsche; it’s just how much the batteries for a long-range EV cost to replace. They are expensive, and scattered across the whole floorplan so replacement is a nightmare.
I agree that the motors are pretty bulletproof, but total cost of ownership is still unfortunately quite comparable if you keep an EV for the long term. It’s just a different “payment plan” for the maintenance, where you get hit with one single massive bill after X years. This is worrying because people might choose then to scrap a perfectly good car with a damaged battery - it’s the EVs way of programmed obsolescence.

Hahaha so funny and edgy lol
Or, you really enjoy a hobby but your hyperfocus makes you research the hobby instead of doing it. E.g. you like photography and your hyperfocus kicks in researching places to go take photos, or gear to buy… Or you spend hours choosing the best cycling route until it’s too dark or the weather changes and you go “What happened to my beautiful afternoon??”.
My hyperfocus tends to kick in whenever the ADHD gremlin inside my brain chooses, not always when I’m doing whatever I enjoy. I wish that was always the case.
HAHAHAHA King Boo and Kirby. In that order. Annoyingly it works well.
I think 60 fps at 4K with raytracing are maybe PS6 specs, not PS5 pro. I hope I’m wrong, but I’ll believe it when I see it.
It’s okay. You did the same as me but skipping the steps where you spend the money on a switch, and then leave it in a drawer when you get tired of games that play at 27 FPS, which you’re lucky if you manage to get with a 20% discount after tracking them on dekudeals for months.
the shutdown command was a warning not a request.
Such wise words.
This assumes everything works fine. It’s probably an edge case, but on my Nexus 6P an update somehow messed with my encryption keys, and the screen lock pattern that I’d used for over a year stopped getting recognised. I can’t remember the solution but I vaguely remember having to factory reset. Whatever the solution was, it wasn’t too different to what a thief would do… I was bypassing the screen lock after all.
Judging from the upvotes that was a room well read.
