I would figure the joke doesn’t work in Dutch because Dutch has different words.

For what it’s worth, patient education is a necessary component of any medical interaction. Most medical doctors need to be able to teach. Unless you’re a pathologist I guess, and never speak directly to the patients.

Regional pricing will always be complex and never fair for one group or another. Consumers in one region with high purchasing power will be charged more so that consumers in other regions with less purchasing power can be charged less.
Otherwise vendors would completely price themselves out of certain markets, denying a potential revenue stream and potentially opening avenues for local competitors to crop up.

And here I guess I am just too milquetoast to make the cut. My takes are too tepid, my edge too dulled. Am I even trying?

Seems at the time the article was published, the status page was showing green across the board. They updated the page after the fact, and then the article updated to include that.
- Comment on Just got arrested for a supposed DWI even though I blew a 0.0000000. Don't cops need to read your Miranda rights to you? I asked for a blood or hair follicle test and I was denied. WTH is happening? 6 days ago:
Well the idea of Miranda rights is that people famously may not know their rights when they are arrested and thus need to be informed about them before being interrogated.

I mean fair enough, but they don’t take degrees away following a career change.
The point is not that he’s not a real doctor, it’s more that not all doctors are good people or deserving of trust just by title alone.

FWIW, Doctor Oz is actually an accomplished surgeon. But it’s like how I wouldn’t trust my gastroenterologist to diagnose why my back hurts, y’know? No one should trust whatever bullshit he spews outside his narrow scope of highly specialized knowledge.

And you could probably optimize traffic by increasing the size of the cars to include a lot more seats, or even standing room. Or even connecting multiple cars together for efficiency if there are a lot of other people who want to take the same route.

Must be depicting Tornado Alley, where wind currents moving in opposite directions can form storm patterns that cause tornadoes. We are truly watching a tragedy unfold.

Newer traditional consoles are going that route anyways. Price aside, the Steam Machine is just a prebuilt PC masquerading as a console, and the next Xbox is rumored to be following that same approach.
Whatever Sony is doing, though…your guess is as good as mine. I don’t even know if Sony knows what Sony is doing at this point.

Hopefully the Bluepoint remaster can be made playable on PC someday, too. I’ll never forgive Sony for killing it and closing the studio down.

Can’t be much older than that though. Rome: Total War 1 was in 2004 and looked miles prettier than this.

I always just assumed CSAM was people trying to exclude illustrated kiddie porn from the definition since no sexual assault takes place.

Or that they even reasonably fix it.
A homeowner can choose to get whatever works best for them. If they have their own preferences, or even want to spend a bit extra to get a “buy it for life” product, they can do whatever they want.
A landlord will do whatever is considered “good enough” for the lowest cost. The landlord will always opt for the cheapest solution for any given problem because they’re not the one that needs to live with it.

Some restaurants in the US will charge gratuity/service fees. It’s basically a scam, where the restaurant just forces you to pay extra so their menu prices seem lower, and then that money doesn’t even need to go to the waitstaff like a normal tip. Not to say it doesn’t happen, but I don’t think anywhere around me charges a mandatory gratuity to every single customer, usually just to large parties where they will require more space and likely stay longer.

It’s just a series of quick dialog cuts followed by less than a second of action, and then a prolonged reaction shot that will be used as the thumbnail.
