He had a whole goddamn sentencing hearing where they sentenced him to nothing. Explicitly.

Well, lack of jurisdiction doesn’t make bullets or gravity less effective. A NY cop in LA is still perfectly capable of murder.

Just claim the man was trans and you’d probably get away with it 💀

Fucking Andy Ngo and his milkshake whining. “It had concrete in it!” No it didn’t, what would that even do? It was liquid. You’re just a baby.

Flock, and no, you’d never get a court to rule in your favor. The only way for the situation you describe to happen is if every court between you and the SCotUS ruled in your favor.

What do I have? A best friend and a girl! I’m hoping she’s a girlfriend and not a daughter, because I can’t afford the latter.

We’re on the same page. I even mentioned the Nazis in my comment!
- Comment on Can't believe its been 2 weeks 3 weeks ago:
Two hundred million? They managed to double their kill count since 2000? Impressive, especially considering the lack of invading Nazis to mow down en masse for easy numbers.

You can still get modern motherboards with PS/2.
And yeah, it isn’t hot-pluggable. I think that probably had as much to do with killing it off as the versatility of USB.

Hey, me too! I just need to get a bracket to hold the hard drive properly. I just need to learn to use a 3D printer.

That’s impressive. Playing them in a Discman is easy, but a Walkman?

Not a very popular computer, but it set a standard that was nearly ubiquitous for mice until USB took over and was popular on keyboards even after that.

She lasted about 57 Scaramuccis. That’s pretty impressive tbh.
- Comment on Why do so many people regardless of whether their reasonings are justified or not pinpoint South Park for ruining a generation of millenials? 5 weeks ago:
I do really appreciate that The Gang’s misbehavior always ends up screwing them over. That’s a big difference compared to South Park.

That’s a really good distillation of their ethos. I’m going to try to remember it.
- Comment on Could machines develop consciousness just like we did? 5 weeks ago:
Yes. Humans are fundamentally subject to the same laws of physics that machines are. However, it took about three billion years from the first life to the first sapient life, so I wouldn’t count on machines getting there anytime soon.

I’d categorize you more as a horseback Jesus than a lolcow. Lolcows face more derision.

Care to explain your reasoning, then? Or did you just want to feel smug?
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
I was a little worried that that part would distract from the overall message, so I’m glad I ended up leaving it in and I appreciate you telling me that it helped.

Nope. Circuit breakers do not break on absolute current values.
Huh, TIL.
Ever. Period. At all.
That doesn’t seem to be supported by my research. Standard breakers are designed to trip based on a function of over-current and time, but that doesn’t preclude any breakers from using current alone.
Even a basic spec sheet will inform you as much…
It won’t. I checked. A more detailed spec sheet will, but not a basic one.
It’s why many euro firms make fun of American standards: They’re literally not expressive of reality.
They sure look like they are. The rating is the current that the breaker can sustain indefinitely at the reference temperature. And it sure looks like the EU rates the the same way.
Even GFCI’s can shock the fuck out of you in certain circumstances.
Of course they can. You aren’t a ground fault. A load of 100mA on a GFCI is perfectly normal, and the same load will kill a human very quickly.
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
It’s 100% current, but the current that matters is the current through you. The resistance between your hands is roughly 3 kΩ at low voltages and about 1 kΩ at 220V. You need about 5 mA DC or 1 mA AC to feel anything, which means you need about 15V DC if you’re the only resistance in the circuit.
The current at your outlet will be ~0.05A if the only path between hot and neutral is the transformer. If you add an alternate path, you allow for up to 25A or so before the breaker cuts the circuit. 25A would mean that the resistance between hot and neutral is about 8Ω. If you are the alternate path, there will be about 220V/1k=220mA going through you, which is about 8x the amount needed to cause you to go into cardiac arrest.

No, cubes cannot be destroyed by crushing. The portal disappears when the surface moves and then the cube stops the surface’s descent.

On top of that, [0-9]+ matches one or more digits and ()? matches the previous token zero or one times, so the whole thing combines to zero or more digits, which is just [0-9]*. They’re even bad at regex.

PS5 load times sure are nicer than PS3 load times, though.
