As stated by another user, Wh is not a good metric for batteries because it will change depending on the load (voltage and current).
mAh is a strange unit, but it is the amount of stored charge (as in Coulombs) which does not depend on the load, so it makes sense to rate the capacity by this metric.
That sounds like socialism which is bad because it's bad. Look what happened in Canada, they didn't pay animal and worker abusingly low prices and now they don't have insanely high prices. Without causing these situations they are denying large parts of their population high sustained cortisol levels.
This is why we need to maintain our threats of annexation. We must provide them the stress that their government denies them.
The "willingly" makes the difference there. That changes it from negligence to intentional, and those are legally distinct.
If Amazon, or another marketplace, isn't aware of the danger of a product sold by a vendor on their platform, it's not clear if Amazon, or the market provider, is responsible. Amazon is arguing that they aren't, but I don't know enough of the law to say if that is a settled question.
While the game can be "addicting", it is mostly because it is fun to play. Not all "addicting" forms of entertainment need elevated ratings because they are fun to consume. We don't increase the ratings for binge worthy TV shows and we don't restrict books if they are page turners, so why should we with a video game. At some point people need to regulate the use of their time themselves.
Article 1, sec. 8, clause 1: The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States; . . .
And the tenth amendment: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Such a law as you propose would be unconstitutional and the state government could not protects its citizens from the consequences that would come from withholding their taxes. While we're talking about taxes here, the tenth amendment is also what protects citizens in deep red states from their oppressive state governments (despite their best efforts).
Your comment made me wonder what taxes the federal government collects from state governments. As far as I can tell, the IRS does not collect from state governments, but does collect from the residents and businesses of a state.
So while I agree that these states should fight back, I don't think they have any payments that they could withhold. I hope they find a variety of other ways to fix this though.
Read the first sentence again. It was filed in a US district Court. The number was converted to pounds for the convenience of the BBC's intended audience. The damages are in excess of 75000 so that it could qualify for federal, not state court.
A law firm capable of handling such a suit would probably bill at a rate of $2000/hr, or more.
If your numbers are right, then they could afford to pay for 20 hours of work. That's probably not enough to even file the suit. Again, this assumes your numbers are right but even if they were 10x this it may still not make sense to file a suit.
Unfortunately, I don't think the math works out in their favor.
There are fundamental differences between allowing minors to access health care that they require in a timely manner and letting a 19 year old rent a car.
Healthcare should be a right afforded to all people. Privileges are not rights and it is perfectly reasonable to restrict them based on age.
I don't hate you for your opinion, but I do think you are misinformed on the subject.
It is either a 30 60 or 60 120 Hz flicker, depending on how they built the electronics. It is 30 60 Hz if they didn't include an inverter and 60 120 Hz if they did.
Without an inverter, it will be off for 50% of the time. With an inverter, it will always be on, but sometimes dim.
With better electronics, it will be steady on, but that's not common in christmas lights.
While I too want more people to participate, I think we should also recognize that choosing not to vote is protected speech. That's probably not why people don't vote, so we should probably find other ways to encourage voting (holiday, more access to polls, etc.) Unfortunately, some repulsive people prefer it when fewer people vote.
Once again, this isn't an OLED screen. It is an E Ink screen, like the black and white ones, but with color. And it folds, if you want that.
