Some jurisdictions demand that the officer tells you the supposed infraction rather than playing the old game of “Do you know why I stopped you?”

Well, if you don’t apply the term “brother” to full siblings, he could be a liger or a tigon.

At least the upper skin cells do breathe directly.
Yep, but that’s not even close to 10%.

The way it’s depicted, the weight will be felt around the center point of the body. That’s where it exerts the least force. Also I contest the notion that a difference of 5kg is that significant, even in elderly people.

- Comment on Everytime i come across a 3d printing post 1 week ago:
The only thing that matters is if it’s biodegradable. If the plastic won’t break down naturally, it doesn’t matter if it’s made from starch or crude oil.
Polylactic acid is a low weight semi-crystalline bioplastic used in agriculture, medicine, packaging and textile. Polylactic acid is one of the most widely used biopolymers, accounting for 33% of all bioplastics produced in 2021. Although biodegradable in vivo, polylactic acid is not completely degradable under natural environmental conditions, notably under aquatic conditions. Polylactic acid disintegrates into microplastics faster than petroleum-based plastics and may pose severe threats to the exposed biota.

“Maybe later” mostly makes sense. If the options were “Yes” and “No”, people might assume that if they press “No” now, they will never be able to change their minds. For rating an app, that might be acceptable. But for setting up, e.g. a printer, it’s harmful. You want users to know that their choice isn’t set in stone.

Bad error handling in the client. Whoever programmed it didn’t think there could be errors in the backend, so when their request doesn’t go through, they default to the ‘no internet’ message.
Or, you know, it’s an asshole company, but Hanlon’s razor.

Interesting fun (?) fact: In Germany you cannot bury a pet that’s been put down by a vet. That’s because the medication used to kill the pet isn’t supposed to leech into the surface water.
