Well there's cost. Think about how many outlets in an office or home.

You may not understand the engineering of "UL" or safe switches because they would have to have full current of a short going through them, you have arcing, lifetime toggles, the ozone weakening the molded plastic, etc.

With most outlets (receptacles) there is a solid copper bar that goes from the wall wires to the part that pushes against the prongs of the plug. With a switch it's slightly more complicated and would you only break the hot? What if someone wired outlet backwards?

Sure you could make every plug involve a fuse, circuit breaker, arc fault, GFCI, and a switch. And a USB transformer and nightlight.

It could help though in many homes if you had only one outlet wired to a switch, and could help with parasitic current draws of almost everything modern.

How in the world can you support iOS release, but not Linux? For a TEXT editor with very little graphical layer.

Imagine posting to a who forum and not only leaving Baker out of list of best Doctors, but not having him at the top. This has to be the funniest thing I've read in a week.

No they found the guy who stole the newspapers

admitted he took the newspapers because of the front page story

Plaindealer is not disclosing Choate’s relationship to the sexual assault case.

The theft was not connected in any way to the three defendants in the case, their families or the Ouray Police Department.

I'm not a Sherlock, but if you read those two together, sounds like the victim's (who was never named) relative (father?) stole the newspapers?

Otherwise they wouldn't have the sentence about not disclosing

You probably "should" be embarrassed your police chief allows his step son to gang rape a girl in his house and no one is in jail.

So the victim woke up, couldn't find her clothes and left with police chiefs sweatshirt in mid May. Goes to hospital and they call Sheriff obviously, but he can't investigate because he hired the police chief and was former chief and his investigator also had worked for the police chief. So obviously they have to involve CBI (state investigator)

May gang rape... Then "CBI agents interviewed suspects in July"... Then.. "July 20, agents used a search warrant to seize evidence from the police chief’s house"... To "were all arrested on warrants for suspected felony sexual assault in December. All have posted bail and been released from jail"

Oh and the police chief knew for month about the investigation. CBI took two months to even question suspects or collect evidence... Another five months to charge anyone.

They left freaking bite marks on the girl.

The DNA tests on samples collected during the hospital sexual assault exam matched Trujillo – in a vaginal sample – and Dieffenderffer – from a bite mark.

There isn't enough meat here to say if this is expected or nefarious. For one thing those in FL over 90 yrs are a few percentage more registered D than R. So voters removed from rolls due to SSA dB death records or FL death records will favor D over R by 5%

We don't know how many are students, which are the largest group of purged through postcard address verification. Moving states, registering in other counties, not updating address, etc. Younger FL voters are more likely registered D than R.

You'd want to look at AAMVA and ERIC lookups, and where the purges come from. You are also removed from voter rolls for not voting in recent federal general elections (last two)

On the other hand, Florida Republicans have actively improperly ratfucked the rolls like 2000.

There's no actual definition. People often have all sorts of unconventional relationships/friendships. You have have sexless marriages, friends with benefits, etc.

Typically in general, most people are most comfortable when relationship moves towards having sex it often becomes exclusive relationship (in general, for most people). Some relationships might become exclusive and dating for a long time without sex. Some marriages even are platonic and maybe one or both have sex outside the marriage.

DNC lawyers argued that the Democratic Party doesn’t owe anyone a fair process and that it has every right to disregard its own rules or interpret its rules how it wants because it is a private organization.
