There’s a man in the clouds who blows really hard.
But the plants he eats grow in sunlight.

What if the turbines are hooked up to an electric milling machine ?
Unless the board is just lying, it sounds like they got everything that they were asking for?
If that’s the case, how is it a bad move?
You can’t garnish wages in Texas state cases unless it’s for child support. The US Code allows for it in federal cases, but it’s mostly in case this guy gets money on a book deal or something insane like that.
The ADA issues at play in the lawsuit largely stem from ADA claims against websites.
It’s a real issue where some small business makes a non-ADA compliant website and gets shaken down by sketchy law firms that hire disabled people to be straw plaintiffs (AKA “testers”) to find websites that are in violation.
From the article:
The ADA permits a plaintiff challenging a violation of this rule to obtain an injunction requiring a non-compliant hotel to fix its website, and it allows that plaintiff to have their attorney’s fees paid by the defendant if the plaintiff prevails in court. But the plaintiff may not obtain money damages if they prevail.
So some small business has to fix their website that the “tester” never would have used on their own, and they have to pay the law firm that hired the tester’s legal fees too. And then the law firm pays the tester.
The ADA is a pre-internet rule, and its enforcement mechanism and regulations around have never been updated for the digital age, so scummy lawyers are making a killing off it.
For the record, the solution is easy: update the ADA like disability advocates have been calling for ages.
When did people read the article on old reddit?
2004?
Don’t worry, he’ll upset Putin soon enough.
Wifi under the old standard?
Realistically, they’re giving Ukraine their old stocks and modernizing, something the Bundeswehr and NATO have been calling for for years.
It’s not even a ponzi scheme, it’s just a good old fashioned bubble.
It’s digital tulips.
You can hardly blame that just on Gates. Every moron in the government has been pushing standardized tests as some way of grading teachers and schools for decades at this point, and this program coincided with Obama’s equally disastrous and very similar federal program. Which was an improvement over Bush’s even more disastrous program.
Especially when you realize Gate’s program was of limited scope while Dubbya/Obama/Trump’s DOE’s fuckups covered the entire country for a far longer period of time.
Yeah. How much human trafficking is actually going on at airports with a “parent” flying “their” child somewhere?
If some sicko is a billionaire with a private jet and is THAT dedicated to getting a kid to them, they’ll fly them on their private jet. You know, like Epstein.
And if they’re the “usual” human chattel that is treated like cattle, they’re probably being transported in some slower, cheaper method than a plane that (1) costs way more and (2) has a dozen security mechanisms designed to catch you.
This is just racism and people buying into Qanon propaganda.
Soldier’s a ton of fun. Everyone craps on it because it’s really plain in ME1, but in ME2 and ME3, they REALLY overhauled the character. In ME2, adrenaline rush is just broken, especially with stuff like the Revenant. (oh, and you get the Revenant on your first playthrough.)
ME3 is ridiculous though. You get all the ammo powers, and you can chain ammo power explosions for everything but warp ammo with concussive shot. It’s kind of cheaty though, because if you take yourself, Garrus, and Ashley and equip everyone with Typhoon V-X, everything dies in seconds.
I got one, but got rid of it after the screen cover plastic became rigid and creaky…twice. Worse, Samsung said they’d cover it once under warranty, and that after their ubreak ifix people were telling me it’d cost $200 to fix and I had to explain I had a protection plan to the braindead tech ten times.
Not worth it until they solve durability issues.
Insurance would have to prove the modification caused the accident by disabiling some safety mechanism.
Legally, software mods and hardware mods are no different, and people have been modifying their cars well before you could hack a seat heater on.
Modifying your car isn’t a valid reason to yank coverage in most circumstances.
Even making your car faster isn’t enough, assuming your mods are street legal.
BMWs have had this, to some extent, for a while. Bimmercode can do things like change sounds and enable software disabled features, like anti dazzle lights. (This is disabled because the NHTSA refuses to adopt ways for them to be easily tested in the US, despite their being approved for decades in Europe and a congressional mandate telling them to allow them on the roads, so every automaker has to disable them.)
No exploits needed.
It’s also really stupid because the idea is to create a system that’s better than humans. And let me tell you, people miss stuff all the time when driving. Tons and tons of accidents are caused by “negligent” drivers who looked both ways and missed someone due to a visual processing error or literally not being able to see something.
Yeah, or the US just invades Yemen with global support, triggering the regional crisis Iran wanted.
None of the regional powers actually care about Palestine outside of using it as a convenient political excuse.
