"Drugs" are a pretty broad category of thing, it's unlikely that you're ever going to get an honest answer out of anyone, and it's even more unlikely that anyone using illegal drugs who wants a gun is going to not buy a gun because of this. It's just more war on drugs bullshit.

I'll also add that if people were actually worried about the competency of people buying guns to own guns, then it would make far more sense to put the burden of proof on the person buying to prove their competency. But that's not what this law is really about.

You shut your damn mouth, my cat is 17 and fit as a fiddle.

It's kind of a shitty law in the first place, but he was assuredly guilty of it. It's still unusual that they went after him for it when it wasn't connected to any other crime (which is usually when federal prosecutors use this law) and really unusual that the judge threw out the plea bargain.

So did I. :(

Yeah I'm not using anything like that. Bit irresponsible of MS to not audit this stuff, then. Lots of businesses allowing users to install vs code extensions freely even if they're otherwise restricted for software installs.

Soda with alcohol in it.

Its Instagram mashed up with artstation

They actually seem quite a bit different. The one for Cara isn't perfectly round and seems to suggest a person in the middle.

I don't think I realized that the extensions could contain code since most of them are just doing syntax highlighting.

If you want to do the software equivalent of digging a ditch that's cool, but I'm not sure why you would expect to get an engineer's salary for doing so.

...It occurs to me that I am interpreting "rush" in the RTS sense of attacking early before your opponent is ready, not in the sense of pressuring people to take their turns faster.

The idea that coding is the only part of your job is "actual work" is where you're going wrong. The goal is to create robust, well-functioning software that's documented and fulfills what it needs to do, not write an arbitrary amount of code. Your job is more than just doing the part you like.

Seems like it's a valid choice in a competitive game. Unless there's an option to disable military victories or explicitly play coop.

Not really, it's software which specifically allows people to defederate, so it's by design that you'd have splinters.

That's fine right up to when you're complaining about the temperature to an american.

This seems like a by design thing.

I dunno, it'd probably be better but there's nothing stopping people from using metric in places where it makes sense. I write most of my recipes in grams because it makes them easier to multiply or divide.

At the same time, the most common thing people use units for is a point of reference, and it really makes no difference whether your point of reference is metric or traditional units.

London seemed like most other large cities to me, in that there was a wide variety of food from different cuisines available. It's not like every restaurant was all jellied eels and boiled meat.

American here, but I think a lot of Americans have not actually been to Britain and eaten their food.

Too spicy for the NES version
