And fittingly, both of those categories are pretty much a perfectly overlapping venn diagram because they are so overarchingly vague.
Drinking water can kill you, and if it’s too hot, it causes cancer.
Therefore “drinking water” is something that can be found it both lists. And so is “not drinking water”.
It’s also the worlds most addictive chemical, and alarmingly nobody addicted to dihydrogen monoxide has ever been able to overcome that addiction, every dihydrogen monoxide addict dies with a 100% certainty within a few weeks if they stop taking it.
That’s how you end up with Horizon Forbidden West having 3500 credits, because you credit every single employee of every single company and division that even looked at the game for those five seconds.
That also is kinda problematic, because now your contribution is buried in the names of all of your coworkers who didn’t work on the game, so were you then properly credited?
“Battlefield 6, made by {list of every single person currently employed by EA}”
Hmmh, could be, though both are “from the factory”, the winter/summer tires are slightly different sizes. But the allowed error in the EU overall (or at least in Finland) is 10% +4km/h, so it’s still well withing “spec”.
Prince of being the child of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
Andrew still retains the title “prince,” bestowed on him at birth as the son of the then reigning monarch.
If it didn’t, it would be pretty damn annoying as cars always show higher than actual speed. I’ve had to set our BMW to do +8km/h so that it actually does 120km/h on GPS and not 112.

You can’t really detect “TV signals”, but you can quite easily detect the 10.125 kHz horizontal line-scanning deflection coil of a CRT. Though I’m fairly sure even if they did originally start effective back in the 1950’s because people had very few elecronic devices around, actually detecting anything accurately must have been increasingly difficult as time went on, and a lot of the newer models must have been more about being a scare tactic.
Dammit president Madagascar, you were supposed to shut down everything, not flee.
“I think the workers at ZA/UM all agree that we have something unique at the studio that we want to preserve for years to come.” Marketing manager Poppy Ingham handles social and communications for the studio behind politics-laden RPG Disco Elysium.
The studio behind it technically, yes. They did kick out the main people responsible for Disco Elysium few years back after tons of drama and massive legal kerfuffle though.

My favourite example of not having basic understanding is the Lia radiological incident.
Three men from Lia (later designated as patients 1-DN, 2-MG, and 3-MB by the IAEA) had driven 45–50 km (28–31 mi) to a forest overlooking the Enguri Dam reservoir to gather firewood. They drove up a nearly impassable road in snowy winter weather, and discovered two canisters at around 6 pm. Around the canisters there was no snow for about a 1 m (3.3 ft) radius, and the ground was steaming. Patient 3-MB picked up one of the canisters and immediately dropped it, as it was very hot. Deciding that it was too late to drive back, and realizing the apparent utility of the devices as heat sources, the men decided to move the sources a short distance and make camp around them. Patient 3-MB used a stout wire to pick up one source and carried it to a rocky outcrop that would provide shelter. The other patients lit a fire, and then patients 3-MB and 2-MG worked together to move the other source under the outcrop. They ate dinner and had a small amount of vodka, while remaining close to the sources. Despite the small amount of alcohol, they all vomited soon after consuming it, the first sign of acute radiation syndrome (ARS), about three hours after first exposure. Vomiting was severe and lasted through the night, leading to little sleep. The men used the sources to keep them warm through the night, positioning them against their backs, and as close as 10 cm (3.9 in). The next day, the sources may have been hung from the backs of Patient 1-DN and 2-MG as they loaded wood onto their truck. They felt very exhausted in the morning and only loaded half the wood they intended. They returned home that evening.
If you find a strange grey canister in the middle of the woods that has somehow melted the snow around it and is steaming hot for no reason, don’t fucking touch it.
…but we all know in our hearts that if we didn’t have prior understanding of these thing, all of us would totally go touch the mystical heat canister.
There’s one exception - when they are self-sufficient, or even net positive, with renewables.
One example is the Google datacenter in Hamina, Finland. They build it in an old unused paper mill, built their own renewables (3/4ths of their required at this point), and they use the cooling loop for district heating for the city.
That extra heat provides around 75% of the required heating, meaning the city could stop relying on their old natural gas heaters so now the district heating runs on renewables as well.
It’s easy to be an energy neutral datacenter, simply pour enough money to building new renewables that wouldn’t have been built without your contributions, and you don’t tax the power grid.
Oh if the Gulf Stream stops we are totally fucked - Finland is almost exactly at the same latitude the Northwest Territories of Canada. The capital of Finland would basically get Yellowknife type temperatures, and that would essentially be the warmest place in the entire country.
If that ever happens I’m just going to kalsarikänni myself to death in the snowbank.
Or just -P “profilename” to launch that profile directly from a shortcut.
You can have as many running simultaneously as you’d want.
I’m sad to announce that climate change has arrived here too.
But for the guy bothered by snow, great news, winters in the southern Finland, especially in the coast, have mostly turned to just a 5 month long wet and windy autumns instead!

From what I’ve seen, most issues with Waymo are that they are too careful, too rigid with laws and too easy to fool with things like traffic cones and lines of spray paint. Meanwhile Teslas speed past stopped school buses mowing down children and crash in to walls and parked cars at highway speeds.
Imma take my chances with the car stuck in the middle of the road because someone plopped a traffic cone on the hood, thank you very much.
No real drama (for Alex at least).
They wanted to make a car channel but LTT couldn’t finance it due to the recent allegations/drama and resulting revenue loss, were allowed to try it themselves but due to an employee no-compete clause it caused issues and they were given the option of either stopping or getting fired with a huge severance package and stuff. It was essentially a silly legalese way for LTT to pay them to go be solo youtubers chasing their dreams.
As they say themselves, getting fired was a positive thing.
Normally, no.
And this data breach wasn’t technically to Discord either, it was to a third party company that does some part of customer support for them and the data and IDs leaked were from people who had contacted support because they were flagged underaged, and sent their ID to verify they weren’t.
Which also kinda explains why they weren’t deleted as they should be, they were just attatchements to support tickets, and not a “proper” verification system.
Gotta keep the investor money flowing.
