That's the funny part, if I'm the owner, I can do whatever I want. "It's a must"? Too bad, it's my restaurant and I want to sit here. "You're being rude to a customer" I'm being rude to this customer, too bad.

A smaller switch would be a terrible idea. They're already pushing so hard to have mainstream games on the console, and those games have UI elements that can only get so small before they're useless. You'd have to develop your UI around being used on these tiny screens, which either takes extra work or leaves big screen users screwed.

A smaller screen switch would basically be relegated to phone games, and all other games would lose a lot of detail to size

Same as every other time he has tried to stir shit with these trials. All they have to do is keep a level head and let the hammer drop. They've got him, the evidence is there, all they have to do is get the trials to go through with as few hiccups as possible. These judges need to keep a level head and they should be able to do so easily because, despite all the petulant whining and diversionary tactics, they've got him.

Literally the reason I started regularly using Firefox

I feel like even the smart ones who built rockets and bombs saw us killing nazis and were like "yeah that's probably for the best"

Nonono you see God raises up all the "good" people, all the "bad" people were godless heathens.

See the "good" people appeal to Gods followers by claiming to be a prophet of gods wisdom and telling them to vote for them on faith. The "bad" people tricked and manipulated others into gaining their power by posing as false prophets and liars.

Do you see the difference?

To elaborate for the curious, basically a community sets up a committee that will handle these things. You would normally pay HOA fees to cover things like paying for the streetlights in a private community, the pool or fitness center, or whatever a long those lines. Basically for a private community it's a way to say "Hey, we need some things done to keep things nice, everyone pay in so the flowers look good this year". Normally, not a bad idea. There are usually two things that go wrong though. One, the money is mismanaged and/or people are heavily overcharged and the extra money disappears. The other is that HOAs also have rules for the community to keep things orderly on their own property. No cars in your yard, no blaring music after 9pm, etc. But you hear about a lot of cases where this stuff gets out of hand and suddenly people are getting fined for having trash cans out too long or the wrong colored curtains.

Because of this, people have justifiably built up a lot of hate for HOAs. Imagine buying a house, your own property, then paying +$100 a month to keep the neighborhood nice, then some picky Karen comes by to tell you that you can't hang up your sports team flag and if you don't take it down they'll fine you $50 a day.

You are completely correct. The "happy path" or what to do if everything goes right is fairly straightforward for autonomous cars. It's when it gets into exceptions or unexpected scenarios like this that it becomes a problem. It's a car so you can't just stop it in the middle of the road, but you cant tell it to ignore road signs either

Giga Chad as a concept is used by whoever wants to use it to justify anything they want by saying "'cause I'm a Chad". In the same way that Chuck Norris did. 90% of the memes for each can be replaced with the other and lose almost no relevance. Someone can use a giga Chad meme to say "women's rights are a joke" and the same for Chuck Norris. They can also say "defending the homies when they want to share their feelings to the bros". I'm not saying the Chuck Norris memes are guilty free or whatever, but the giga Chad memes are far being used only for "making yourself a better person"

Linen cloth, time to start making bandages again.

I prefer "affective managers" as in "that managers attitude has affected employees desire to work here"

Is that a neo-mazi hand sign? Looks like he's just doing the devil horns or something to me.
