What would really tie it together is the transition to the next day/murder investigation scene showing it drop down to room temperature.

Now, if I was trying to destroy financial records, I could think of worse ways than for them to "accidentally" be shipped to an employee and "lost." Even better if the employee actually destroys them for me.

It kind of sounds like the sort of antics a company about to go under and unable to pay debtors/taxes might do...

Welcome to capitalism. It may not be the best system...but the oligarchs say it's the only one we can have (until NeoFeudalism).

“It sends a report to your accountability partner. My accountability partner right now is Jack, my son. He’s 17. So he and I get a report about all the things that are on our phones, all of our devices, once a week. If anything objectionable comes up, your accountability partner gets an immediate notice. I’m proud to tell ya, my son has got a clean slate.”

Am I just cynical that this sounds more like intentionally training your son to avoid a paper trail from "official" devices? He's a 17 year old boy, he is almost definitely looking at porn.

Abbas quotes historian Raul Hilberg to support his allegations that fewer than one million Jews were killed.[13][14][15][16] However, Rafael Medoff of the David S. Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies denied the assertion that "The historian and author, Raoul Hilberg, thinks that the figure does not exceed 890,000", and said this is "utterly false". He wrote that "Professor Hilberg, a distinguished historian and author of the classic study The Destruction of the European Jews, has never said or written any such thing."[12]

In the book Abbas raises doubts regarding the existence of the gas chambers, quoting Robert Faurisson, on the nonexistence of gas chambers.

So he doesn't deny that the Holocaust happened.....just that it was millions fewer deaths than reported, the Jews were a pivotal and willing part of the plan, and also there were no gas chambers. Cool.

…and yet you’re all just going to work tomorrow.

Now that's where you're wrong, buddy. Tomorrow's Sunday.

Won’t this become an arms race to mask tracking elements as “legitimate” looking parameters?

Maybe, but only like 3% of people are using Firefox so, maybe not?

I read it as a joke of increasing absurdity. Sniffing pepper makes people sneeze so that one works (besides the trying to make a plant sneeze part). He got a bit distracted by experiment 2 and mixed up the involuntary reactions sneezing and tickling and tries to tickle it with a feather. He then gets further distracted between experiment 2 and 3, and tests feet which are commonly ticklish.

When I break it down like this you can see that it is a very funny joke, as one can always tell from a detailed explanation of the joke.

What do you mean? He already tested the three most common allergens: pepper, being ticked by a feather, and feet.

I think the reasoning above is based on the idea that he will be actually disqualified and not on the ballots as a convicted felon (at least I assume that's the "he's disqualified" angle here).

Although, sadly I think it's unlikely to happen before the election, and even if it did I wouldn't be in the slightest surprised for Republican states to just outright change whatever laws they need to (or just ignore the law) to put him on the state ballots.

And when asked about a potential release window for Haunted Chocolatier in 2024 or 2025, Barone smiled, "Still gonna be a while. I won’t say."

If I ever hired a hacker who failed to announce once they are, in fact, in I would immediately ask to speak to their supervisor.

Yes, I would drink even more until I physically couldn't anymore. Very quirky.

All of their creativity goes into the mental gymnastics instead of something good or useful.

"Damn the boy"

He seems really proud of himself though

Mine pays rent in dead chipmunks.

Attention

I think the final product and the ideas and concepts that it holds are the important aspect for copyright.

If I cut up a Star Wars poster into 1,000,000 tiny pieces, and then reassemble them into a self portrait with no reference whatsoever to Star Wars and sell it, would I have committed copyright infringement?

If I did the same thing but made a stormtrooper out of the pieces, is the copyright issue with the source material, or the final product?

The guy just loves inserting himself places he isn't wanted.
