It makes great scaffolding too!

This doesn't make sense. They just need to download the data from the torrents. You don't have to ask Anna's Archive for this. It might take a number of days, but surely they would want their own local copies and not try and access it "on demand". Also, Meta is already known to have downloaded their data a year ago

What blows my mind is a company that large can invest that amount of money in a "trilogy" without any kind of plot line or story to to map out three films. Especially when the plan is to have three entirely different directors for the films.

This is a very misleading headline based on what the article says. The summary makes it sound like the Pentagon had this device in Havana and their own device caused this syndrome. That's not the case at all.

The Pentagon purchased the device as part of their investigation, and they tested the device and determined it could be the cause of the injuries and symptoms. It contains Russian components, but that doesn't mean that Russia deployed it or even made the complete device (although that is likely).

What about presidents and presidential candidates essentially being forced into releasing their medical records? Seems like working for the government in a high-risk, high-stakes and expensive role might be somewhat different.

Whenever you hear the statement "What we call X", you know X doesn't actually mean what X really means.

Yeah, because Starlink clearly does not function well at all because Musk isn't a "graduated telecom engineer".

Neither does the EU

When you look at the population of the planet, and the diversity in genetics, body habitus, pre-existing health issues, diet, nutrition, on and on, it makes you realize that these incredibly broad statements are almost pointless.

For example, here is just one study highlighting the genetic differences between Chinese and Koreans in the USA when it comes to alcohol response and dependency.

That is just one study between two clearly identifiable ethnic groups that have measurable differences of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH1B) genes. Now imagine the amount of genetic blending across a population like the US, and the subtleties and differences between individuals when it comes to alcohol metabolism.

Saying alcohol is slightly good on average in this study is like saying everyone should take blood pressure medication, or cholesterol meds, because those are good on average too.
 

Correct, but civil is in ADDITION to criminal. If I run my car accidentally into a building, that is still reckless driving, failure to maintain control, etc, whether or not I intended to damage the building.

Intent should only determine the severity of the punishment, not whether they were guilty. If I accidentally run my car into the side of a building, catch the building on fire, and burn it down, I am still responsible for the damages caused, even if I did not intend to do it. Hopefully my insurance will cover it, but I am responsible.

Even if they did not INTEND to damage the undersea cable, the crew, owners, etc of that ship should still be completely responsible for the cost of the damages. If they are uninsured (shadow fleet type thing) or will not pay, then the ship should be seized to recoup the costs, which takes it out of commission as a future tool to cause damage, and at least someone should be held until the matter has been settled.

Hey everyone, ignore any actual problems with the visa and immigration system related to India, and instead take a look at how some Christians feel about a statue of a Hindu deity in Texas. On the other side of the spectrum, lets talk to Hindu adherents in India about their thoughts on McDonald's killing over 7 million cows annually to feed Westerners? I'm sure they'll only have positive things to say about that.

Just because he hasn't seen them, doesn't mean they don't exist. I distinctly remember various games on the sides of milk cartons. Like these:

Time to break out the Antarctic Snow Cruiser! Just kidding, that thing sucked. Tracked vehicles are definitely the way to go. Still I thought that thing was cool in that you could live in it for a very long period of time.

That would be improvement. At least characters that are required to be there are not totally invisible and have some appearance so one can see if they are there or not and how many there are.
