The owners get a cut either way. The real question is why are these "well timed" bets not being investigated by the SEC as insider trading? It's either unlicensed/illegal gambling, or it's securities trading. It can't be neither, and it seems like the grey area is the only reason this company is allowed to exist.

If you're not using the ready-bake ones, you can just cut the par-cooked noodles to fit.

If Trump orders these bombed anyways, and the military executes these orders knowing this, they deserve the Nuremberg-style trials that can and hopefully will happen.

Unfortunately, the wait time to receive one of these visas is often more than 15 years.

The Department of Homeland Security, which oversees ICE, has defended the deportations, arguing that crime victims can return later if their visas are eventually approved.

So if you're still alive in 15 years, let us know. Also, we haven't heard from you, so you need to restart the process.

Unlikely, without regulation against this. Fines are just a cost of business, since they are never, ever costly enough. Either a true penalty fine, or executives in prison, or both, are the only response to ensure change, here.

But the second element is that this is an RGB-backlit mini-LED TV, and Hisense claims that it should be able to hit over 100% of the BT.2020 pro color space, and is also Pantone validated (though the latter doesn't mean too much — Hisense's more affordable TVs have this rating too).

How does something "hit over 100%"?

I wish I could find somewhere that made real FL-41 clip-ons. I loved my Theraspecs sunglasses when I wore contact lenses, but in regular glasses, I can't get that same benefit. I'm not willing to buy two pair so I can have one with and one without, because they want you to send your glasses to them for coating.

EDIT: To OP, yes, they do really well at reducing blue light, which is one of the more common triggers for photophobia-related issues like migraines.

EDIT 2: If anyone has tried the lenses from Somnilight, I'd love to hear unbiased feedback. They apparently do sell clip-ons, unlike Theraspecs, for way less money, too.

I'm downvoting this purely because of how extensively the title is sane-washing the actual statement.

What Trump actually said on his propaganda site:

Tuesday will be Power Plant Day, and Bridge Day, all wrapped up in one, in Iran. There will be nothing like it!!! Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell – JUST WATCH! Praise be to Allah. President DONALD J. TRUMP.”

Why would the US send a C130 transport into enemy airspace to rescue a single person? I get the blackhawk part, but not that. Doubt activated.

....wow

That timeline reads to me like he was in withdrawal, vomited, and likely aspirated on his own vomit. All due to lack of actual human care in a supposed ICU. I say "supposed", because that shit shouldn't even be legal for tele-health in the first place.

Marketing be like "this service pairs expert remote monitoring with skilled bedside care" and I translate that bullshit as "we farm monitoring jobs to cheaper labor markets and they watch people die, on Zoom".

That article reads like a ChatGPT summary, though I'm not sure if that's partially due to translation from German or not.

 

I think this community is appropriate for this topic, since this solution is being rolled out to combat AI scraping of websites.

I don't really understand why the collective agreement is "it is better than captchas would be", when you didn't need to pass a captcha just to view a website in the first place. Why are people not more pissed off about every website suddenly requiring this laggy, sometimes actually a captcha anyways (checkbox to prove you are human) solution slowing down visits to websites?

And why can't CloudFlare offer some way for us lowly non-AI's to prove we're human, once, for our entire web experience, versus on. every. damned. website. one. at. a. time?

I counted, and I hit this turnstile solution on 28 website visits today, and sometimes more than once on the same site. That's minutes of my life I don't get back, and likely hours to days over the course of a year.

There has to be a better way...

Been down for a couple hours for me.

 

For me, it's a light grey color and the text is white, even when CarPlay is set to always use dark mode. This is hard for me to read, but I can't find any way to change this. I'd rather just have an actual dark background when in dark mode.

 

For folks using multiple accounts, it feels a bit buried to go from content in one to the other. It would be nice if the number of taps to go between different accounts was reduced by a few.

 

I don’t know if this is the app, instance issues, or both, but I’ve found this feature to not work well

 

I think it would be cool to be able to swipe left/right when viewing an image post from the feed or in a community and be able to go from post to post like a slideshow.
