no it's not, it's a loophole in the legislation that was actually first used and is still most popular in France?

For mammals we are, sure, but there's loads of things that'd kill humans that other animals chow down on perfectly happily, especially when it comes to microorganisms, mushrooms and the rotting things they're often found in/around

I don't think scavenging is right also given that humans used to mainly pick fresh fruits and persistence hunt, both of which are very fresh food which is not overlooked or left by others... Given the fact we picked fresh fruits and hunted for fresh meat, being resistant to berry and fruit based poisons was more important than microorganism based ones, so it makes a lot of sense that so many of the non-intoxicating poisons we like are from fruits and berries

What model and prompt are you using to get a bag of x?

I tried to make a goldfish in a bag and a bag of brown leaves with multiple sdxl checkpoints at various times and it either put a handbag next to the target or straight up ignored it

wake me up when october ends

BBC live TV doesn't have ads either?

I'd be less surprised if the pirated version was slowed for some reason but equally BBC could have got it off another network who do run ads

I figured it was "in a merry-go-round" but hey I guess that fits too

you could always symlink .Trash to /dev/null if you don't care about potential accidents

C is memory safe if you program it well enough, so I guess C

Dominance over the food chain; dominance over the environment; dominance over where other species (and their own) are even allowed to live; dominance over the genetics of other species, etc.

I was 99% sure Finland for the first one though, but somewhat makes sense

No it's not... it's purely emphasis/stress via vowel reduction in English?

I doubt society will go fully paperless, there are times when you need a thing that can be crushed, folded, whatever and doesn't run out of battery, so unless e-ink technology develops in a very specific way I don't think every eventually will be replaced, and even without purely functional applications I think art would never ever go fully paperless for many data security (leaking art before it's complete), economic (things are more expensive when they're limited in supply, and making either legal or illegal copies of digital things is so much easier) and sentimental reasons (it's just nicer to have something physical) reasons

you can change the relative size of things with zoom

I think it's more that a lot of people only think of badly done makeup and see well done makeup as natural beauty, which it enhances rather than contrasting with

Of course someone with clown-face-adjacent levels of makeup is going to look worse, but if done to make the skin look natural but smoother, eyes look natural but bigger and features natural but better defined then yes, I think very few people will find that less attractive

The UK's average energy price is high, but it's also very variable as when it's cloudy and calm 20% of demand needs to be imported from France/Norway so wholesale energy is very expensive, but when it's sunny and windy wholesale energy is free or even at negative cost and 20% of generation gets exported to France/Norway, where their energy is more expensive

If you have the option to run datacentres at minimal or even negative energy cost maybe 20% of the time, then shift load elsewhere the rest of the time, then that may be a reasonable proposition

These are all in cargo pants but default is phone front left; small wallet (leather card holder with a zip pocket with a tile in it) front right; keys back zip pocket, but recently I was in another country and did water bottle front top left; phone, large wallet due to cash & book front top left; travelcard and hotel key back zip pocket, passport & 120Ah portable charger front bottom right, coins front bottom right which surprisingly felt just fine so maybe I'm ready to become a suburban dad

And yet (at least from an outsider perspective) libertarians are closer to democrats than republicans

Republicans seem all about telling you what you can and can't do (can't get hrt, can't get an abortion, can't smoke weed, must marry and have children etc.) whereas both democrats and libertarians are largely "just live your life" but that could just be because all the american parties seem so financially right wing that they're basically the same in that respect

pure water at mean atmosphere pressure at sea level if we're getting technical, but frankly human body temperature varies from 35.5C (95.9F) to 37.5C (99.5F) anyway, and that's before considering when people are ill, so if we go down that route it falls apart quickly enough that the definition of 100 given above is clearly just as arbitrary

How is 0F 100% cold though, most places will never get that cold, so it surely makes more sense to have 0F at freezing point of water and 100F at 38C?

Are they identical objects?
