Splicer posted:If I'm reading it right they made a post about the illegal skull trade in India and some guy thought they were talking about buying an illegal indian skull for themselves, and I genuinely can't tell if their failure to say "I'm not buying a skull" without caveats is just lovely communication or because they're ethically purchased skulls georg It sounds like they want to get a donated skull at some point, with clear documentation that it was one. But the other person latched on to the idea of illegal skulls from India and is insisting that absolutely everything is about those. Even with the original post being a warning against that.

Skwirl posted:If i were a magazine editor I would probably ask the writer of the review to possibly revise their score when the game tried to kill one of their coworkers. If they refused I might consider not running the review at all. Revise it how, though? Taking off a point or two seems really insensitive. You could give it a big fat 0 but that's basically just omitting a score, not revising it.

Somfin posted:Doubling down on "I hope he gets raped" as an apology, loving hell Somfin posted:I'm not outraged at her or about her wanting "bad things to happen to Trump," I'm outraged about the systematic problem that the joke relies on: the belief that prisoners deserve to get raped, the understanding that prison exists as a way to make your enemies suffer rape, and the response to jokes about one's enemies being raped in prison consistently being an apology only, and exclusively, for the implication of homophobia. It's not an apology. She is (correctly) denying the accusation.

Ugly In The Morning posted:I think I’m actually more confused now. I guess the original issue was people publicly commenting on her body. And she did things like standing entirely behind that desk to reduce it? Then she made a tweet about not liking those comments. Then a bunch of twittersmen interpreted that as "negative comments" and responded very unhelpfully by calling her beautiful and similar.

Biplane posted:I remember watching stuff like the simpsons, how i met your mother, all the american shows really, back in the day. Constant cuts to black every few minutes, breaking up the flow of the narrative, for no apparent reason. It's something like 21-22 minutes padded to 30. And it slowly gets worse over time. A few shows even go over 1/3 ads. There's very good reason to never touch live TV. Your profile says norway, the rule there is max 9 minutes per hour, that seems like a good policy. The UK overcomplicates things but there's a limit of 8 minutes per hour in prime time, also good. And no ads on the BBC.

Sort of like how your bank's website will log you out after [x] minutes of inactivity. Am I missing what happened? It reads to me like he timed out while trying to process the payment. Limited window is fine, the problem is failing to return the money that arrived in Tesla's account after the window closed. Assuming it did; it's possible the transaction is still pending because bitcoin. Dylan16807 has a new favorite as of 02:25 on Apr 1, 2021 |

You could tie different kinds of legal ownership into an NFT just fine, but when people will pay thousands of dollars for sweet nothings nobody bothers.

ultrafilter posted:18! is the number of orders that you can put all 18 ingredients on, but it doesn't allow for the possibility that you might only want 17 or even fewer. If you don't consider order, then there are in total 2^20 possible ways to order your hash browns, which is the number given above. The number they give is a perfect match for 3 sizes, 4 preps, and 17 ingredient options. So which ingredient was added later?

Mega Comrade posted:It's intentional language and what's used legally here. Being "drunk" is subjective, drinking is not. Having 3 pints and getting behind the wheel, you may not be drunk but you are over the drink-driving limit. Can't most people have a drink and never go over the drink driving limit even at the peak? Let alone slow drinking over time. The rule is based around drunkenness and how to define an objective threshold of it. It's easier for someone to self-evaluate whether they had a drink or not, but the crime is about drunk and not drink.

Cloacamazing! posted:There's this whole differentiation between fast digestible carbs (sugar = bad) and slow digestible carbs (starch = good) which is a thing in diet speak, that's probably what they were talking about. I guess the basic idea is that your body needs to break down the starch into glucose before you can use it and sugar is already glucose / saccharose? And the sugar gives you energy faster and the starch gives you energy over the day? Pretty sure this doesn't work that way, starch is already broken down as you eat and long-term energy storage is fat, not starch, but you know, diet stuff. It's probably some half-truths blown way out of proportion. It's true that it's not as simple as sugar vs. starch, and potatoes will jam your blood full of sugar right away, but the basic idea is very true. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycemic_index No idea if the guy was referring to that. His wording sounds more like he's worried about overworking his gut or something.

A reasonable estimate for a "library of congress" focused on just books is 1MB or 10MB per book depending on text versus black and white scan, multiplied by about 30 million books. So somewhere in the ballpark of 100 terabytes. Project Gutenburg is somewhere over 50k books and over 60GB. English Wikipedia is about 21GB of text.

Since you're comparing different circles you don't need pi, you can just use diameter squared per dollar or radius squared per dollar.
