No, much like the 'trial by ordeal', in more religious times it was believed that god(s) would grant favour to those who were truly righteous and/or innocent, allowing them to survive an ordeal or win a fight.

It was effectively a verdict rendered by god, rather than the courts.

Is your game completely offline, or does it have automatic updates pushed via steam or similar? If a background game update changed an api call or two in the way it handles graphics, its possible that your current graphics drivers dont support the new implementation.

An ideal system would do a version check for what is installed on your system and recommend a gfx driver update before pulling down such a game update, but our world is far from ideal.

There is a recent New Zealand Today episode that interviews him. IIRC, he was involved in a number of low level scams at the time, and was arrested while dining on a stolen credit card. Man was just a natural showman, who wasnt going to go down quietly.

They should have been more pro-active about notifying customers about the incident, but it's incredibly difficult to identify every parcel individually at first. They don't typically get logged to a a truck for each leg of the journey, so the only way to identify what was lost would be to wait a day or two until it is reasonable to expect that everything would have been scanned to a depot or delivery, then tally up what hasnt been scanned.

I save all of my end of life spools for prints that I'm going to be on hand to supervise, then just spend the day hopping up to swap filaments every half hour or so as each one runs out.

Care to elaborate? Every cloud "solution" I've been pitched is just a super expensive way to bottleck everything at the router.

Built off it, rather than copied it. That's par for the course in most science.

Hmm, I probably have that much distributed across my network... maybe I should look into some way of distributing it across multiple gpu.

Frak, just counted and I only have 270gb installed. Approx 40gb more if I install some of the deprecated cards in any spare pcie slots i can find.

Literally billions of people are. Do you think meat just spontaneously appears in the supermarket?

Quite the opposite. Cannibalism(assuming you obtain consent) would be ethical meat consumption.

Are we all just gonna ignore the semi-transparent power pole in front of the sign?

I forget, did Pegasus end up disabling their networking after they made their initial escape? I don't remember it being mentioned, but it makes for quite a plot hole if they continued on as normal.

The flip side to this, is that the vast majority of meat in pet foods is effectively waste from human-grade meats, for the same reason. That means the price point for competition in pet foods is significantly lower.

It also means that there won't be as direct of an impact on livestock numbers should pet food be sourced via synthetic meats, as it just means the byproducts which would enter the food chain for dogs instead become waste products with a cost of disposal.

Did she name her car "dick turpin"?

Can you provide an example of this? Only time I've encountered that behaviour was with a laptop that had a defective lid-switch.

Now look at an x-ray of an abdomen with a metallic object in it. Seems pretty plausible thata person could look at an x-ray containing a bunch of metal and approximate how much of it there is.

Raid 0 offers no redundancy though. If any of those three disks fail, you lose the entire volume.

For the sake of backups, switching to Raid 5 would be more robust

Gays to the vanguard?

I am totally on board with individual vehicles as a last-mile solution, and self driving vehicles are a great option for that, but expecting them to provide the entire trip puts us right back in the situation we find ourselves now with human driven cars.

Unless we are going to shrink these vehicles down to the size of a bicycle, mass transit for the bulk of the route will always win out in terms of efficiency.

That is called public transport, my friend. You can sleep all you like on a bus or train.
