Yeah, I foresee a few quiet walks alone around the block in your future.

Pungent Stench - Been Caught Buttering. The original album art, which depicted two severed, partially decomposed heads kissing (in fact, it is one head which had been sawed in half by Joel-Peter Witkin)

Why would a 20% reduction only lead to a 20% price increase? Pricing depends on what people are willing to pay for it. For example, if Rolex were to make 20% more watches, would they still be able to sell at the same price? And not just in the short run, but also in the long run? The market for Rolex would get over saturated, and prices would drop significantly more than 20%. (for Rolex it would be even worse, since they would lose clientele at the high end of the market).

I remember the late 20th century, it wasn’t that bad, and certainly not that dangerous. /s

But are there B-movies like in the 80s? I remember renting tapes of movies that I would have trouble finding today.

If this is true it just sucks. He could have just as easily alerted the bus driver when getting off the bus. On the other hand. he could have seen it, ignored it, and later when it was nagging called it in.

I guess the same way as with the Anna’s archive vs Spotify case in the US last week?

That NL, we also have quite a few banned domains here. Basically copyright organisations like Brein will sue everyone they can get away with. Unfortunately they have been succesfull on multiple occasions, mostly because the other party won’t show up in court and they win by default. Another thing they do is sue one of the large ISP’s for facilitating copyright infringement to get them to block sites like torrent sites. If the judge rules in their favor, then all Dutch ISP’s have to abide by the ruling.

Back in my day, we had floppy’s of 172 kB, 64 kB internal memory and 16 colors!

I like that I can just block users or communities that I’m not interested in, and just browse all the rest. The amount of cross posting could be better, it’s not uncommon to see the same post five times in a row.

Disclaimer up front; I’m from Europe, so call me an arm chair specialist. Also, this is all hypothetical, in no way I want to promote violence.

Well, for most people it has to be on a weekend and not too far away, since they can’t afford to lose their job. (This is usually given as a reason to not go on general strike) Also, the right to bear arms is specifically meant for this scenario, but the people who currently exercise this right are usually the ones defending “the Epstein class”. (Great name BTW)

I once got bitten by a horsefly, the nasty bugger flew away to the roof of the shed, where it was quickly caught by a spider. We’re now blood brothers.

It’s kind of stupid, on the one hand they’ll pay you for the energy, on the other hand you have to pay for the grid load. Depending on your supplier and contract you could get a net price of 1 cent per kWh or more.

The crazy thing is, the government doesn’t outlaw this.

Well, I score very high on both!

Very much this. In the last few years, a lot of the youtubers I follow have moved from 20 minute-ish videos to 50 minute-ish videos, and I don’t like it; most of the time the video could be a lot shorter. The worst perpetrators will have 1 hour videos where half of the content is rehashed from older videos, and after each new video follows a week of daily shorts from said video.

Did you know that you can just put “college student” on your resume instead of “sex worker”?

They could be a day apart in a leap year!

Thanks, I didn’t need to know that.
