It will definitely burst, and might take out some fairly large companies with it. Potentially even one or two tech companies that have been around for decades depending on how large it gets before that burst. One or two companies will end up with the IP all of them are “building” and it will fizzle into the background of daily use just like the previous assistants like Alexa, Cortana, etc. have.

Oh I’m not implying that’s a good thing at all… Thats what the MAGAts seem to believe, they just never get to that last word there, never get to the realization point.

This doesn’t surprise me at all.

At Circle K, the video system in the back uses “police” to access the footage so they can review and make a copy. Not sure if that’s the only access level, wouldn’t be surprised given how old many of those systems still are.

He’s getting rid of the Mexicans taking their job…

The jobs that none of them want to do in the first place…

For wages none of them would accept…

Wait…

Depends on what the jury decides. Did they manage to find 12 people that will consider a sandwich a weapon and completely discount the protest aspect and all current events?

Considering the prosecution doesn’t get to pick the jury, and both sides decided on the jury via voir dire, I doubt it.

That dude is still gonna have to live with all the jokes about him being a little bitch overreacting to a sandwich. His buddies will never let him love that down regardless of the verdict. And that gives me a tiny spark of happiness in these dark times.

To be fair, that’s because of a 1972 law that classifies bread as a staple food with extremely specific requirements. Namely that sugar content is no more than 2% of the flour content, above that is technically a cake legally.

Ignoring the fact that cakes usually have a sugar content of about 35%. The bread is nowhere near actually being cake, no one would actually mistake it for cake, and the courts only classify it that way because of those legal definitions.

Every building receives 240V and splits it into a pair of 120V phases. Three phase power is basically only installed at large industrial sites or very specialized shops.

The trial already started… That’s the point of the article. The first paragraph mentions the jury…

A jury trial for a single misdemeanor?

That’s your right. The defendant can choose whether to have a jury or bench trial.

Clearly in this case you want the jury. You want them to look at the ridiculousness of the case and throw it the fuck out regardless of the legality.

They tried for felony charges. Multiple times. The grand juries (plural) refused to indict.

Our dishwasher has a bright ass white LED when it’s done and clean. As long as you don’t open the door it’s lit up like the Lighthouse of Alexandria. If you’re opening the door, you need to just empty it. Even with that we have a magnet that says “Hella Clean” on one side and “Dirty AF” on the other, makes people actually want to swap it around since it’s not just a basic boring ass dirty/clean sign.

if they thought it was midterms they should have looked into candidates by now

They did, the media told them who the candidates were, the ads told them who to vote for, and the big name politicians at the federal level told them who they endorsed. Duh. The media wouldn’t tell them about things that don’t affect them at all. /s

The problem is that everything has become a national spectacle even city-level elections, because both parties are grasping to make absolutely ANYTHING a distraction while they fuck us over constantly.

NYC things don’t affect ANYONE ELSE. Maybe the surrounding counties, but that’s it. Yet here we are with the President of the United States trying to steer the election in one city, and the nationwide media is gobbling it up like they haven’t had dinner in decades because they make money from the advertising, and angry comments it creates across social media every time they say anything.

I didn’t even realize that, last I had heard was them putting it before the third jury, and then that there was going to be a trial.

I’m sure we all know the phrase that a prosecutor could get a grand jury to “indict a ham sandwich”. It took prosecutors THREE Grand Juries to finally get an indictment for someone throwing that sandwich.

It’s all a complete waste of time and taxpayer funds, and in any other point in history these prosecutors would have been fired immediately for incompetence at even considering an indictment in the first place, not even considering the possibility that they would try for three attempts.

They’ll immediately find another old fuck neoliberal to fill the spot.

Welp, bye bye to the shield against the Sun’s deadly laser. Although I guess that also means bye bye to the laser too? Hmm.

I mean… God literally commits genocide multiple times, and that’s just from the stories that they chose to actually include. Satan/Lucifer mostly tempts people to do things they want to do anyway.

Seems pretty cut and dry honestly.

Lucifer’s crime was daring to question his father.

After being cast out he was put in charge of overseeing those that were deemed by that same father to be bad after death.

Seems to be a common link there, and it’s not Lucifer.

Ironically that’s the opposite of what the healthcare industry wants. It costs a lot of money to die with health insurance. Lots for both you and the insurance company.

They push preventative healthcare options all over the place and provide hundreds of dollars of incentives each year to people to do the bare minimum because it’s cheaper to prevent issues from the beginning than to treat big ones when it’s ignored.

They want to pay as little as possible, but also get as much as possible out of individuals and company benefits, there’s a balance they have to maintain. Single payer would actually make them more money probably, if it weren’t subject to the same government spending cuts Republicans always want to do as well.

Also, dead people often can’t pay their bills. The average estate often isn’t large enough for medical bills to recoup everything.

The Republicans making these decisions however, aren’t just doing what the insurance companies want though, they’re grifting from everyone so it all results into a balanced evil end where no industry gets what they really want, but the consumer always gets fucked.
