The story of “playing with grenades while drunk and high on cocaine” was so plausible too.

Might pay to read up on the luddites.

They protested against manufacturers who used machines in “a fraudulent and deceitful manner” to replace the skilled labour of workers and drive down wages by producing inferior goods.

Well, they can …

Doctor’s in the UK offer screening for Down’s syndrome, Edwards’ syndrome and Patau’s syndrome at 10-14 weeks.

Please can you explain this in genetic terms?

As I understood it, sex is determined by the presence, or absence, of a Y chromosome, at the 23rd pair.

While exceptions exist, they’re incredibly rare genetic observations and I have never heard or read it referred to as a “spectrum”.

The game is rigged

Story mode / Infinite lives / invincibility modes.

Difficulty should not be a barrier for entry. I like how Insomniac games like Ratchet and Clank, and to a lesser extent Spiderman, offer a really easy mode for those who just want to blast away or swing around New York.

Lol, find me a tattoo artist that takes credit card and they can have my skin, twice.

Pretty damning, when it’s the government’s own electoral commission making these admissions.

I have no idea. But my gripe is the lack of a clear notice that “this is a paid article and you must be paid member to view it”, it just says words to the effect “sign in to view”.

Medium.com is absolutely rotten for this behaviour.

Not only putting the soft, “sign in to view” but then on some articles requiring a full hard paywall… But you only know this after signing in.

I’m not entirely against charging for well written articles; good writers deserve compensation, but don’t tease me, make me jump through a hoop only to find there’s another much higher hoop sitting beyond it.

I’m appealing to help on the internet, I’m pretty much exhausted and this is my last gasp to find a way to help him tbh.

I have a friend who keeps defending him, often deflecting to attack the people writing the article (i.e. BBC) and then ranting about Epstein Island and the Clinton’s etc…

Yet here we have a man who has videos of himself talking about trafficking, coercion and abuse of women - and more evidence of them openly discussing it like a grooming gang, yet my friend continues to say words to the effect of “it’s the elites trying to take him down for telling the truth”

Honestly, I just do not get it, and would appreciate anyones advice who has maybe faced similar issues how to get through to them.

“in the cloud”

Well, the firm I work for won’t ever implement it then. Back to pandas, nothing to see here.

“I really hope we can find a way to prevent ourselves from shooting ourselves in the foot”

Will there no longer be an announcement at The Ritz: Bathroom and Kitchen fitters inc. ?

Is that why we are being told to “fear” AI? Because it can’t be easily monitised by those who worry about such things.

How would the world feel about a ridge Racer, RR revolution, rage racer and RR type 4 remaster/reboot? The same game mechanics, menus, modes etc, just with a modern gaming engine and graphics.

As Linus said, think of it like watching a Top Gear/VIN Wiki video about a super car. I just want to see it at its best, and going fast.

Yeah, talk about some downsides but recognise this isn’t a product for everyone. His attitude of “don’t buy it at all” was really bad faith.
