If anyone is always one size from every clothing-ish retailer, congrats! The money they save on brick-and-mortar is being applied to me ordering 3 pairs of pants, and returning 2. If I have to take it into the store, that is generally fine with me. It is a chore either way.

I remember watching that. I also remember that being one of the least scientific-method-y tests that they ever did. I was immediately skeptical then, and remain now.

Is parent an AI bot posting to slashdot using natural language in which to promote a product? Well played, sir.

qBittorrent on Windows and Linux.
I like the way it is easy to bind the app to a networking interface, so I can keep it on the VPN only.

"Comment on this summary, and use a lot of idioms."

They will just end up with a negative balance in their accounts. I can't imagine a world in which the bank wouldn't impose all of the normal fees for overdrawing your account at that point. This will be a net-positive for the bank's coffers.

The "every half hour" is incredibly punitive. If I miss the train in Denver, I just give up and drive.

I regularly ride the public transit (mostly trains) in Denver, mostly to work and back.
RTD, the public transit company does "zero fare" months occasionally. I sort of dread those months, as while it does increase the number of people on the trains which is good, it vastly increases the number of people that get in and ride the train all day with nowhere to go, which is not so good. I don't want to be insensitive, but the smell from many of these folks is pretty terrible, and makes me want to drive and park instead.
The cleanliness of the trains goes from "pretty good for public transit" to "wtf is that on the seat?" pretty quickly.

I did not know that tony stark's heart thing was palladium.

I am iron man!

My wedding band is made of palladium. Is it going to kill me?

I expected that everyone loved wasting hours while overweight white dudes in shitty suits "conferred" about what type of pricing we could get, while sitting in an upholstered desk chair at an industrial desk.
Very unexpected that dealerships are a garbage industry that only exists because of lobbying.

You can hit the API with the first 5 characters of the hash of your password. It looks like a good model to me. Documentation here: https://haveibeenpwned.com/API...

Would shareholders back a company that excludes large swaths of the population as potential customers?

No, I don't think that I will be doing that.

Are you OK?

And do you really think that a Marine is going to get an order that says "Get into this ring and beat up an elected official" and say "Yes, sir."?

I know some marines, and they are honorable patriots. Not robots.
