If I was capable of getting pregnant, ensuring that I couldnt be forced into a lifelong parenthood based on a single mistake that i may not even consent to would be a much scarier thought than more people speaking a different language.

Boot into your bios and check the sata mode. A number of machines that I work with(acer predators most notoriously) will for no discernable reason switch from achi mode to rst optane, resulting in no drive being accessible to the os. Switching back to ahci resolves it.
I agree with you somewhat, but I think in the case of body parts, which require the death of a person to procure, the risk of encouraging such bad actors is significant enough that we ought not to enable any market at all except where lives may be saved by their procurement.
I would consider trophies derived from human bodies to be immoral in the same way that child pornography is. The act of transmitting a digital file does not directly cause harm to anyone, but by creating a demand for it, you are in turn driving an industry that violates the rights of people in order to keep supplying it.
For many years after western contact with Aotearoa, people were deliberately killed for the sake of producing preserved heads which would be purchased by collectors in Europe.
If there were to be a resurgence in demand for such objects, there is no shortage of people either desperate enough or cruel enough to revive the practice of killing people to produce them.
Sure, there could be systems put in place to verify that a head was procured humanely after natural death, but it would never be foolproof, and there would always be some degree of black market causing harm on the fringes in order to meet demand.
We already know that people are killed in order to feed the black market for transplantable organs, so why would we allow an industry with all of the same risks to exist purely for the sake of art?
My daughter is a very different skin colour than me. Somehow the worst I’ve encountered to date is an uppity mother who thought I was telling off a random child.
This is something I’ve never understood. Surely it is a compliment rather than an insult to effectively say “your partner is very attractive”
I’m sure if you hit the gym for a few months you’ll have the strength to win her back.
From a read of that article, it appears that they are feeding it analog inputs, which would imply that it is producing analog outputs. I don’t know if there is a way to evaluate floating point operations on an analog system. That said, my knowledge is very cursory, and someone will surely correct me.
How does it compare to Mike Duncan’s?
My homies and I use to share cds, and then splitfile the mp3s onto multiple floppy disks. Still faster than 56k limewire.
Swappable batteries resolve this issue pretty well. The energy density is far from comparable, but if you’re already hauling a van or trailer to the job site, then a dozen spare batteries isn’t an issue.
It is a very popular Single Board Computer, with a lot of community support that allows people to build and program a variety of things for a low price. Think of it like lego, but for things which can be useful as well as fun.
Want to run a weather station? Pi and a couple of off the shelf sensors, done.
Want to control your lights or appliances from your phone without getting out of bed? Pi and a couple of off the shelf relays, done.
Want to build a retro gaming console? Pi, a couple of off the shelf controllers and some pre-made emulators, done.
If it’s tp keep motorbikes out then it has failed anyway because it stops at the edge of the path, and leaves plenty of room to drive a motorbike around.
Says in the article that some generators are down for required maintenance “ahead of the winter”. Doesn’t specify which type of generation or whether the maintenance needs to be carried out specifically to prepare for winter conditions though.
It would be nice to have a bit more detail, maybe justification for why maintenance of electrical plant can’t be done at times of the year when demand is lower.
Are you sure you’re not confusing this with the concept of “binning”, which is a pretty standard practice for chips?
You manufacture to a single spec, expecting there to be defects, then you identify the defective units, group them by their maximum usability and sell the “defective” units as lower end chips. IE, everything with 24-31 functional cores gets the “extra” cores disabled and shipped as a 24 core, everything with 16-23 functional cores gets shipped as a 16 core, etc
People are still using windows?
Related question. Why are north American hydrants all of the “stick up out of the ground as a permanent fixture” type, rather than the more discreet and less likely to be damaged “pipe fitting concealed beneath a removable plate” type?
A copse, as the name suggests, is a stand of trees that have been deliberately coppiced (ie, repeatedly cut near the base so that the rootstock remains alive and generates fresh branches at ground level).
A better term might be the more generic “stand”.
Consciousness and memory both require communication between different regions of the brain. It’s entirely possible that you were "alert’ amd responsive while still suffering a brain injury that prevented you from remembering any part of it.
Anesthesia scares me for similar reasons. It halts the communication between different brain regions, and we know that people have no memories while under general Anesthesia, but are they lying there unable to move, suffering extreme agony throughout the surgery, and just unable to remember it afterwards?
Did she name her car “dick turpin”?
