Swiping from the left side of the screen is almost always back

To switch apps, you swipe left and right along the little bar along the bottom of the screen. You can also swipe up on it to go to the app switcher view.

It looked more to me like the horse wasn’t sure which way it wanted to go at first and hopped left before deciding to go right

If you read what you linked, the meaning where they overlap is in the sense of a tail or something hanging down. The cue in the sense it’s used here, as a prompt to act, was in use since the 1500s in theater. The use of queue to mean a line only began in the 1800s and probably came out of the now basically unused meaning of cue/queue to refer to a tail-like thing. Curly cue and pool cue are the only remaining uses I can think of. Queue has basically lost that meaning in favor of its new one thanks to IT applications. It does not mention cue ever taking any line-related meaning.

Most of the ones I’ve seen are attachments on toilets. So you do drip, but it’s into the toilet. I haven’t had any issues with stray poo even with no pre wiping. It all drops into the toilet also. It’s a jet of water from far away, so you’re not really in contact with it to infect it.

This absolutely terrible in the most hilarious ways B movie that may or may not have ever actually been released called The Astrologer. It was filmed in 1975 and apparently lost until just recently. A local theater got a copy and did a showing of it. Fortunately, it’s now preserved on the internet archive! https://archive.org/details/the-astrologer-1975-previously-lost-film

That was the first game I rented from blockbuster. I spent all night playing it with a friend. Still one of my favorites for Genesis

I had it on pc at one point. I think I read about the spell casting system and really wanted to try it. I didn’t end up playing that much though.

Continuous growth is not a requirement for that.

And you can’t have those?

Except that if we have the technology to fully digitize a human consciousness, we’ll already have AI that can do everything a digital human could and more

I don’t think that’s a fair statement in relation to EV batteries. Most of them are proving to last well over 10 years.

The point is they very much care about the perception of the rest of the world. Your idea of what is comparable there is a little too literal

Apparently China does, with their policy of trying to strong-arm the rest of the world into calling Taiwan a part of China

Nice, good to know. Thanks for the insight

I get the impression they can look at and choose whether or not to take a delivery before accepting it. If you have in there that you absolutely need it delivered to your door, you’re a lot more likely to get someone who knows and is ok with that. That should lead to more no questions asked deliveries for you at basically no cost. Rage against what should and should not be all you want, but it’s not going to change your experience if you don’t do anything different.

Putting that explicitly in the delivery instructions might help them have a better idea what they’re getting into and what to expect

No, no, this one was specifically designed to make sure the front does fall off

If you’re concerned about quality, re-encoding from a lossy format to another lossy format is always going to lose more quality. Even if the format you choose would have been better quality if it was encoded directly from the source, the result is almost certainly going to look worse than what you have now.

If the result is more cooperation between parties, that sounds good to me. The entire thing that got him ousted was certain far right members saying “you can’t work with the Democrats at all, no matter what,” which is one of the most fucked up, dysfunctional things I’ve heard out of our government in a while
