Walmart became one of the richest companies in the US because of stuff like this. There's a whole penny-pinching mentality built into their company structure that I haven't seen at any other retailer I've worked for, and they argue that it's how they keep their prices low.

The problem with this line of thinking, as well as the point the OP's meme makes, is that it's drawing a line between the two in the first place, when in fact there can be significant overlap.

A quick dictionary lookup yields this for terrorism: "the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims." Note that "especially against civilians" doesn't mean it has to be, just that civilians being involved makes it a stronger case.

Now, you may have already spotted the issue, but here it is anyway: this is an incredibly broad definition. Laws don't bind those in other states, so ANY act of violence or intimidation is unlawful.

So...freedom fighters fight using violence, against the laws of the country that claims sovereignty over them... so they're terrorists. Full stop. This doesn't mean that we should or shouldn't support them, it just means that the definition of terrorism is pretty useless.

c/196 has 1 rule: if you arrive, you have to post something before you leave. People have taken to putting the word "rule" in their titles to show their compliance, but it's not strictly necessary.

That's not what he said. He said humans are Digimon, not Pokémon. Pokémon are Yugiohs, duh.

Well, the human eye ruptures at around 50 PSI. I'll spare you the math, but if you can throw it at a wall so it hits over 45 mph, it'll splat. Otherwise, it'll bounce.

I think it's mostly an unintended benefit. These scams are usually run out of countries with English as a second language, so you get some grammatical errors in translation. It does increase the conversion rate, though, so they don't bother spending extra money getting a native English speaker to copy edit.

It's a screen cap from a video talking about Japan's involvement in World War 2, where they invaded Korea.

It's really a pale blue. If it were white, the visible spectrum would be pretty even, but you can see the graph is higher on the blue edge and lower on the red edge. There's enough green and red to brighten it a lot, but it's definitely blue.

In fact, the sun's surface temperature is around 5800K, and you can look up what color that actually is wherever you go light bulb shopping.

This shows the colors based on temperature, and the sun is firmly in the "Day White." It's called white, but you can see it's pretty clearly blue, especially next to the "Direct Sun" color.

Make sure your litter box is clean, and that your cat thinks it's clean. Cats want to be able to bury their waste, and if there's too much in the box for the cat's liking, they'll go somewhere else, and it's often right outside the box if there isn't something else they could use. It's important to understand that it's the cat's opinion that matters here, not yours: you may need to scoop it every day, even if there's only a little in it.

You may also need to move the litter box and clean the previous area, including and most importantly the place outside the litter box that gets used. Use vinegar if you can: it has a strong smell that cats don't like, but it won't hurt them like bleach can. Lemon juice works well for this, also. What this will do is make sure that this area doesn't smell like a place they have used as a litter box before.

There's a few reasons.

The biggest reason is that bittorrent doesn't download segments in order. YouTube is a video streaming service, so the video will stop playing after segment 5 if you don't have segment 6, regardless of how many segments you actually have. This is a user experience issue, and it would basically make YouTube unusable for the current use cases.

Peer to peer file sharing, as you might expect, means that other end users are providing the videos, not the company. This means that the company cannot guarantee transfer speed, file completeness, or even that the file is the right file. This may end up causing them some legal trouble in the platform current state.

Peer to peer also means that the videos need to be stored in multiple locations, with multiple copies, and Joe Schmo doesn't have a datacenter in his basement. There will end up being a limit to how much content can be stored, and things that people don't watch simply won't be stored anywhere, so you wouldn't be able to look up that meme video you liked 14 years ago.

It's just not a good way of providing data as a service to a customer. It's an alternative for smaller sites that can't afford, or don't want the paper trail of, appropriate data server sizes.

Well, of course not. It's not called No Labor Day.

No, he's claiming that he shagged David Attenborough.
