They requested the delay to July, since he is in court for another case in another area. I suppose it was reasonable to grant it. It’d be unfair for someone to not get their right to a trial, even if they were found guilty of a crime in another area.

It’d make more sense to keep him in custody in the meantime though. I mean, that’s what they do for normal people. Right?

Ready for nothing to happen?

Yeah, that’s the internet for you. Anything you want to stay around will vanish someday, and anything you want gone will be here forever.

I know exactly what she’s thinking from that expression.

How unprofessional.

Samsung’s clock application did this pretty well, where you don’t even have a reset count button until you press the button that stops the stopwatch from counting.

I’d imagine we’d see insurance invest money into making offers to providers. They’d refer the patient to a health insurance company instead of negotiating, and in exchange they’d get a large one time payout for a successful referral. This would please investors in the providers, because they’d see short term gains, and it’d please the insurance company because patients would be forced to have insurance again. Everyone (with money) wins!

Can we really handwave away the whole Adam and Eve thing though?

If we do, then what did Jesus die for?

So by putting a stamp on an absentee ballot, therefore paying the postal service to deliver it, am I committing an Alabama felony? Or are interactions with the postal service explicitly exempted from it?

And be careful, a lot don’t have built in speakers either. Don’t just expect to get a TV out of a commercial display.

Well, it shouldn’t be hard to write in an exemption just for folks with wheelchairs. It’s almost a non-issue.

Yeah, I am imagining the soil moisture things from the garden store, with the little needle gauge thing, that takes so little power that there’s no battery slot. I feel like the amount of power this thing makes is extremely low.

I feel like this is so they can deny that they fed all the webpages that they cached to their ‘AI’ training datasets later when someone accuses them of that. Now when asked about the copies of webpages that they have they can be like “What copies?” and end the conversation there.

What happens if your brain implant is like a phone, and stops getting updates after 2 or so years? That’d suck really bad.

Yeah, you’re correct in that assumption.

I’ve only really ever heard of the box outside of someone’s home being called a postbox or mailbox. Despite the fact that both terms also refer to the box at the post office where you can put outgoing mail, there’s just no separate word for them. And I’ve only ever heard of the slot on the house door where the mail is placed being called a mail slot.

Letterbox is a completely new term to me in this context… and I still am not quite sure what it would mean, if not a mailbox. Haha.

You say that, but in the US, if you don’t live in an apartment, your letterbox most likely doesn’t lock or anything like that either. They may as well just be tossing the mail onto the floor.
