Technically not legal, but depending on the wording, there's a ton of gray area in what's considered warranty-covered damage and what's not warranty-covered damage. Companies absolutely take advantage of the gray area, even lying in some instances because they know that their users would rarely have the know-how to call them out on it and demand rightful warranty coverage. LTT's argument is that if there is such large legal gray area on the warranty, it is meaningless to provide one to begin with

A lobotomy with a rusty ice pick, at that. I don't know of any situation in which torture could ever be conceived by anyone as an appropriate response, yet here we are

I'm unsure what the game is supposed to be - is it just a collection of different versions of Tetris?

Yup, thanks! I was trying to figure out which word I was thinking of. I must have malaphored myself

Same for me, but with Tetris. I'm not the best, but I'm confident I can handedly beat the vast majority of the population. I spent most of my lockdown days just doing Tetris.

Ukraine set a SMART goal.

• Specific - they intend to destroy an oil refinery with a missile
• Measurable - there are a countable number of oil refineries in Russia
• Actionable - sending a missile can destroy oil refineries
• Relevant - Russia having oil refineries is bad
• Time-oriented - Ukraine can launch missiles to destroy oil refineries any time

Just Stop Oil did not set a SMART goal.

• Specific - Unclear what they will throw onto which painting, and when they will throw it
• Measurable - How do they measure a successful tomato juice throw?
• Actionable - Anybody can throw tomato juice.
• Relevant - Unclear how throwing tomato juice onto paintings is relevant to climate change
• Time-oriented - has no plan for when to throw tomato juice

Make of this information what you will

Searched it up cause I was curious too. It's the white tern, and according to Wikipedia, the egg does roll off frequently. The bird simply doesn't care and lays another egg

Asking ChatGPT for advice about anything is generally a bad idea, even though it might feel like a good idea at the time. ChatGPT responds with what it thinks you want to hear, just phrased in a way that sounds like actual advice. And especially since ChatGPT only knows as much information as you are willing to tell it, its input data is often biased. It's like an r/relationshipadvice or r/AITA thread, but on steroids.

You think it's good advice because it's what you wanted to do to begin with, and it's phrased in a way that makes your decision seem like the wise choice. Really, though, sometimes you just need to hear the ugly truth that you're making a bad choice, and that's not something that ChatGPT is able to do.

Anyways, I'm not saying that bosses are good at giving advice, but I think ChatGPT is definitely not better at giving advice than bosses are.

Because Threads didn't federate. It turns out when they said that they'll federate, they actually meant "some time in the undisclosed future." And then Threads lost a lot of that initial marketing hype so everyone forgot about it.

Apparently Meta is currently testing federation for Threads, though? The problem about Threads federating isn't resolved, to be entirely clear. It was merely that everyone, Meta included, just decided to kick the can down the road and think about the issue later.

Anon could have salvaged this if he didn't run away. It could have made for a killer party story

I am a researcher studying diseases. You have no idea how many mice get killed without generating any data. There's a rule in place whenever you want to work with animals that you need to plan ahead and only use as few animals as you need to get the data that you're looking for. But things in research basically never happen according to plan. It could be due to a variety of factors: unexpected failures, overlooked factors, technical errors, or just simple negligence when performing an experiment. A lot of data and samples obtained from killed mice are discarded for one or more of the above reasons.

I get that mouse experiments are important to prove that our findings can translate to actual living animals, but I personally will not touch a mouse because, frankly, the "useful data per mouse" ratio is way too low for me to justify using mice.

Portal! Chell may be silent, but it's directly stated that she got as far as she had due to sheer tenacity and resourcefulness
