Depending on the location (mostly motorway services), I will often do something else before picking up food. E.g. go wash my hands properly. I’ve been known to misjudge the time required and be a minute or 2 late. Sometimes the wait can be long enough that I will go sit down for a bit. Again, I sometimes misjudge.
What genres are you looking in?
For building games, factorio, or satisfactory absolutely blow away anything from yesteryear. There are similar games in many genres.
It’s worth noting that some genres saturated a while back. FPS type games have been optimised to the limits for a while. It’s difficult to make something new and interesting in that environment.
It’s also worth noting that shovelware production has been industrialised, particularly in mobile gaming. Companies pump out mass numbers of games, that are basically reskins of each other. They are entirely focused on $$$ rather than making good games. They are predatory to the extreme, and water down the market further in the areas they attack.
It’s definitely a product of its time. Some of the humour has become a bit dated, but it still holds up well, as a low budget production.
That’s exactly what I do. I also have IoT devices that are still trucking along a decade later. I fully expect them to likely do a decade more.
Both Tasmota and ESPhome provide open source firmware for many IoT devices. They throw up a local API interface that other systems can talk to. Providing legacy support is as hard as using HTML put and get commands.
These can get an impressive range to a water balloon. Reduce the mass with an egg and 1/2 mile is likely (just) within range.
I would say stink bombs are even lighter, but I doubt Trump can even smell them, over his own stink.
The seller thinks the value is net negative to them. The buyer thinks it still has a potential positive value. Both would agree to just hand it over.
Unfortunately, UK law does not allow that. Consideration must go both ways. The simplest way is to sell for the minimum reasonable amount. $1 is traditional in the US. In the UK it is £1. The other commenters link has a good writeup on the practice.
They broke from “everything is a pound” years ago. They also still do a really bad job making it clear what is no longer a pound.
You’re likely picking up on her autism. Most aspies put on a (mental) mask to interact with others. For most it’s intended to be inoffensive and keep you in the background. Greta’s is focused on her goal. She would likely prefer you hated her, but knew about her causes, than be likeable, but forgettable.
As for harmless, that’s part of the image. She’s as harmless as a friendly bull. It will happily get scratches behind the ears, but still walk straight through the wooden fence to let the cows roam free.
You’ve got some catching up to do then.
Pink is countries the UK has invaded. Purple is everyone else.
It could be argued that the government “owns” the whole country. It gives you unlimited use, for a 1 time fee. The existence of property laws, property taxes, and eminent domain implying this.
It depends on how pedantic the vampire is about it.
Was lunch included?
I would go with android auto, or Google maps. Nothing like having to log back into your sat back system, every 15 minutes, while driving.
The number of car crashes it would cause would bring a lot of countries to their knees for a while.
Idiot teen is an explanation, not a dismissal. Nowhere did I say to ignore it. My point is that there is a gradient of both crimes and intents. If there is no matching gradient in legal response, then it can lead to injustice.
An idiotic crime will often need fairly minor corrections. A malicious crime requires FAR more of a response. Treating all crimes as malicious ends up diluting the view on truly malicious crimes. It can also drive individuals into the very situation you want to move them away from.
Context matters a lot. However, in general, it’s a far lower crime than many in that category. Critically, it’s not of the level to be desirable to destroy their future over. The punishment should be enough to deter and correct, but not more.
Many/most of us have been idiotic teens before. Society’s goal should be to correct and improve. Not go in with sledgehammers aimed at skulls. In many cases, the embarrassment alone would be enough to do the job. The law just needs to drive that point home.
It would limit watering down the register with ‘minor’ offenses. It would also help avoid trapping an idiot teen in a negative spiral, due to a stupid drunken mistake 10 years previously.
The prison sentence kicks in after appeals have been made. 2 years, plus 2 suspended.
It’s also not unknown/uncommon for people to be let free for a few days. It lets them put their affairs in order, before serving their time. It tends to be applied to those with a very low flight risk however, with significant affairs, so mainly the rich.
As a UK citizen, we know there’s a difference between the government and the people. You definitely have a serious problem, but you’ve not been abandoned. We have issues with Trump and his cronies, not the people of America.
We might be a bit stumped on what we can actually do to help, but you’re not alone.
Hopefully it’s a dead cat bounce. Falling shares often recover slightly, before continuing their fall. Only time (and action) will tell.
Taxes. The EU introduced rules of tax transparency. The UK left the EU the day before the rules kicked in.
While Putin was likely acting on their interests, the current situation has gone completely pear shaped on that front. Putin is stuck. If he backs down, he’s dead, if he doesn’t win, he’s dead. He’s currently riding the limbo between those situations, hoping for a 3rd option.
If he died, the powers behind him would likely take the chance to disengage. The current situation is bad for business, and plans need to be re-thought. It wouldn’t fix things long term, but short term, they would likely back down.
