It's all gravity in the end. Or probably middle but I don't know why gravity, so that's as far as I can reduce it.

Everything we see around us is just hydrogen trying to get closer to the middle of the biggest hydrogen party it can find in the general vicinity. And we were all once part of at least one massive party that eventually got a bit out of hand when we all tried to get so close together we bounced off of a neutron star before it collapsed into a black hole.

Hydro?

You need to explain that, though they are generally rich, it's not unusual for unheard of princes to occasionally fall on hard times and have their fortunes compensated until they are able to pay a ransom to get a corrupt bank or government to release their vast wealth back to them AND that they are almost always grateful to anyone who assists them in paying that ransom.

Oh wait, sorry, wrong scam.

Wouldn't you find it useful to be able to prove that you paid for something? When you buy an NFT, you're buying just that: the ability to prove that you bought it. And sometimes it even comes with a copy of an image or a spaceship you might just be able to use in a video game or just hold on to until we develop the technology to live in video game spaceships and you sell it for massive profits!

Reporting it makes sense. Investigating if the threat was credible makes sense. If it is credible, a felony then makes sense. But if it isn't, a fine or misdemeanor is enough. Because I do agree that there should be some consequences to discourage how casually death threats and the like are thrown out these days.

But the idea that no tolerance rules that turn kids having outbursts (disability or not) into felons makes anyone safer is laughable. Making troubled kids unnecessarily lives harder is more likely to create more danger than prevent it.

Or marked as duplicate and closed but when you click the duplicate it's a different issue.

Marketers using all of their skills to try to sell the idea that they're a good guy doing something people (who aren't ad buyers) want.

Sad part is they are probably able to fool some people.

LET GO OF MY PURSE!

My cousin had one a few years back and said it was very painful. He didn't end up needing more than one shot because the bat that got him tested negative, so I'm not sure how many doses it was in total.

Don't they usually just administer the rabies vaccine anyways just in case? As I understand it, even with the testing they'll give the first dose because there can be bad effects if they wait for the test results before then.

I wanted to learn more and found this article: https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2016/08/29/damon-baehrel-the-most-exclusive-restaurant-in-america

Sounds like the ten year wait list might be made up and who knows where he gets his meats, but the whole thing just sounds fascinating. From his website, the current price is $550 USD a head, though it's subject to change several times per week.

He sounds like one of those guys that has a whole bunch of little projects going on at any time and over the years accumulated enough results from those to host some volume of dinner parties. And possibly exaggerates or lies about some of them (though hard to say if he treats his cooking similarly to how he treats his legend/myth).

Though I wouldn't suggest bringing up open source software around him. Unless it's to bitch about people doing things for free when you want to charge lots of money for it.

Yeah, but how was that food?

I just tried a fine dining restaurant for the first time this past weekend.

I was just curious after watching a bunch of cooking competitions on Netflix about how good that kind of food could be so decided to find a Michelin star restaurant and give it a try.

While the portions were small, the food was on another level. Even the "worst" of it was only that because it wasn't amazing, but still really good.

The food was so good that when I got home and snacked that night, it was hard to enjoy any of my usual favorite snacks because it all felt so basic after that.

It was fancy in other regards, too. Like when my buddy went to the bathroom, someone came over and folded his cloth napkin rather than leave it bunched up on the table.

Plus, even though the portions were tiny and we joked about whether we'd need to stop for fast-food afterwards, by the end of the 9 or so courses, I felt completely satisfied. Even the snacking I mentioned was more due to the munchies than actual hunger.

It was expensive though. Two taster menu plus two drinks each came to about 500 CAD plus tip. And it was one of the cheaper options. There was a two Michelin star sushi place that advertised seats starting at 800 and I'm not even sure that includes any food, though I think it gets the "chef cooks what he wants" menu, which tbf would probably be way better than what I'd want anyways.

This place only needed to be booked like a month in advance, so the place you're talking about sounds like it's on another level itself. Though I'm curious how much that other level translates to better food.

This is apparently from an ad-supported tier being trialled in EU and not them sneaking ads into an ad free tier. Read comments below for more context.

This thread was reported for being misleading but I'm going to leave it up for the context.

I've been there, it's not even a good park if you ignore the animal cruelty, and I thought this as a kid.

Unless he had a side side gig delivering crime scene tape.

I wonder what portion of her "support" is thinking "stfu already and gtf back to the kitchen and let the men handle this shit".

I'm not sure there's any guarantee that it will ever be sorted, since bit flips will be random and are just as likely to put it more out of order than more in order. Plus if there's any error correction going on, it can cancel out bit flips entirely until up to a certain threshold.

Though I'm not sure if ECC (and other methods) write the corrected value back to memory or just correct the signals going to the core, so it's possible they could still add up over time and overcome the second objection.

Tbf, Canada has like 15% the population, mostly in a smaller amount of areas. The US has more states than Canada has major cities.

Yeah, I'd think they're going to produce what they are going to produce and will adjust allocation and prices to accommodate the demand change in the tariff country.

I've wondered if mental state actually affects reality around us. Like some people who see paranormal shit are just more open to it or something while the presence of a skeptic prevents it from happening

And people who just don't have confidence that tech will work can cause random issues just by being present, but sometimes when a tech confident person comes to assist them, their confidence gets it to work properly.

Maybe it has to do with particle/wave duality and the observer effect, and the simulation approximates things more when people aren't paying as much attention or won't likely investigate an issue closely after the fact, so the simulation gets sloppy because it's approximating. But then when someone who will pay closer attention comes (or will come), the waves collapse into particles and it behaves as expected.

Maybe those cases where a user claims something usually works when they do it a way that is clearly wrong to the more experienced observer, the approximation works out in their favour, but the collapse to particles makes it break like it was supposed to the whole time.

Maybe Pauli understood some things about the technical equipment (and ropes?) that the others didn't or was better at calibration and collapsed the wave more than usual.

Though my guess for the chandelier is that someone first thought of the dropping it when he entered joke but then realized that saying they tried to do that and it failed would be even funnier plus save them a chandelier and be much easier and safer to pull off.
