There you go

Is there a list of these companies somewhere?

Why does the post tile sound like an AI prompt?

2024-12-07 is not "American style", it's ISO standard date format.

They have rules against using their services for that kind of stuff. Once they're made aware of the rules being broken (which they were), they should enforce the rules by stopping service. The same as if you report CSAM on a website to the hosting service and they take down the site. The hosting service is not the one accountable, but it would get in trouble if it comes out they knew about it and didn't do anything.

conflates sex and gender

I read the order. It explicitly avoids defining gender and says that only sex should be used everywhere (which it does define, but incorrectly).

It basically says that the government doesn't care about your gender, they just want to know what's in your pants (or used to be).

Yes, that was my first thought. Then I saw him turn around and do it a second time.

I've been PC gaming since 8-bit computers. I eventually bought an Xbox One as my first console and a Switch some years ago. I just couldn't get into either of them after the initial novelty wore off. PC gaming is so much more convenient for me. I'm already at my PC, I just need to start a game. And I can multi-task with other apps in the background or on my second monitor. Going to the living room to play on a console on the TV, or switching inputs if I keep it attached to my PC monitor, both are too much hassle. I only ever use the XBox for Just Dance (nothing beats Kinect for it) and I've played many more hours of Switch games on an emulator on my PC than on the actual Switch.

Except he didn't mention the product name anywhere in the letter. Looks like he purposefully avoided it being interpreted as an ad.

Laws have changed and he retroactively reduced sentences that were longer under the old laws. But yes, the reasoning for the change was that previous laws were unjust.

Why does that character have two left hands?

These accessories

They were attached to an accessory that allowed them to slide like that. It must have a point other than just look cool on the trailer.

My switch came with black joycons. Iirc it cost extra to get the colored ones.

In all your examples, k is a prefix to the unit. You can have 1 km, or 1 kdB. But there's no such thing as a kilopercent and that's not how it was used in the title. It was the common informal shortening of 1000 to 1k. So it wasn't 1(k%), it was (1k)%. Which is an odd combination. It's not confusing, everyone understood what was meant, but it's still stupid and unnecessary.

But % is not a unit.

1k is a common way to shorten 1,000. And 1,000% is an acceptable way to say 10x. But 1k% is definitely a stupid abbreviation that nobody uses.

There's also this version
