Exponential growth means that you would level up faster and faster at an ever increasing rate.

Perhaps you mean logarithmic growth, where the rate of increase keeps slowing down?

Why is it that the url ends in .JPG but when I right click and save image I can only save it as a .webp?

You can move it back to the left, but I agree that MS seem to be trying to make it look like iOS for some reason

Paprika. I haven't used anything else aside from having a folder of word documents.

Paprika allows you to copy/paste the URL of a recipe and it will download only the recipe. No more scrolling through a blog and a dozen ads looking for what you want. You can then create categories and tag recipes for any combination of categories.

It also has extra functions like meal planners, pantry inventory, and shopping list generators based on the meal plan and pantry, but I don't use those.

It syncs between devices. The only real downside is you must purchase per platform type. If you bought the windows licence and you want it on your phone you must separately purchase the Android licence.

Fair use laws relate to intellectual property, privacy laws relate to an expectation of privacy.

I'm asking when has fair use successfully defended a breach of privacy.

Tabloids sometimes do breach privacy laws, and they get fined for it.

Yep. It was pretty clear streaming services were always going to end up the same way from the start. Even YouTube has, although that was harder to predict when it was mostly 30s cat videos.

Can you provide an example of when a photo has been taken that breaches the expectation of privacy that has been published under fair use? The only reason I could think that would work is if it's in the public interest, which would never really apply to AI/deepfake nudes of unsuspecting victims.

Downsizing was a real bait and switch

People in this thread seem to be missing this point.

This is windows server, not windows 11. The consequences is not "I'll have an annoying taskbar icon on my home computer", this is enterprise level interference that could affect large systems and thousands of users.

Linux Mint isn't an alternative to windows server.

Those people were paid for their efforts. Sure it might be disappointing for that effort to not see the light it day, but at the same time I'll bet many are relieved their name won't be attached to a poor product.

The writer's strike definitely killed it

Wasn't it supposed to be an anthology series, where each season was a new cast? But then they were like "hey everyone loves these characters! Quick make up some stuff so they all have to stick around." Then we got weird shit like that character who has a bunch of twins or something, and psycho serial killer Syler joins the team.

You may as well be describing The Matrix.

Most of the bad guys in Resident Evil 5 were black because of the relevancy to the setting, and people were similarly kicking up.

Is getting up in arms about one of those any different to the other?

(And just to be clear, I'm not taking about the tribal depictions, I'm referring to the reaction to the early trailers)

How do you do this?

Tealc was a soldier/slave just mostly obeying orders to survive. He jumped at the chance to rebel.

But you can only mistake it as a custom object of you understand how coding works. I'm not saying an understanding will prevent you from being wrong, I'm saying having critical thinking will not reach the answer if you don't have an understanding.

Amnesia isn't an encumbrance for writers, it's a crutch. When you aren't good at writing characters and settings with logical depth, you give your main character amnesia. That way anytime something needs explaining you just have your character ask why something is the way that it is. If you need a Deus ex machina to solve a writing mistake you just pull something out of the blue and claim it was always a likelihood.

If you didn't know the answer, it's a critical thinking exercise? Not at all.

Answering this question relies completely on understanding programming. A correct answer cannot be reached without an understanding of programming.

This doesn't rely on critical thinking. It just relies on understanding what ".length" does, which would've been previously covered in the lessons.
