There was a post about this a month ago. The tldr is that one of the maintainers is arrogant and controlling so a bunch of other people quit. It wasn’t out of the blue either, it’s been coming for a long time. There are alternative android store options, so its not too much of a big deal

Yes, but not quite like the movies.

There is a parasite (I forget the name) that, when it infects a person (or a warm-blooded animal) starts living off the host and storing energy in sacs around the infection point. It often presents itself as tumours, as the sacs can get quite large. Between the sacs there is a voltage difference, it’s stored as chemical energy (like a battery with one side less electrons to allow for electron flow).

In severe cases, the parasite has had long enough to grow it’s own nerve pathways through the body that can be used like wires. At that point, the tumours are really advanced and enlarged and will usually kill the victim, if not before.

In an effort to spread itself to the next host, the parasite uses the stored chemical energy to activate muscles in the dead host and move the body around to find another host to infect. That’s where the whole ‘eating flesh’ thing in the movies come from, but it’s actually the parasite trying to break the skin and be able to jump to a new victim.

In reality, this stage only lasts a few hours but as long as the muscles haven’t deteriorated too much, it can be any ‘few hours’ movement within a couple days of death if the parasite is unable to immediately reinfect and instead waits for a period of time.

I knew the ants would come up

Often the rear brakes, and I’ve seen them on Mazda and Toyota. Its a real pain to screw them back in without the tool.

Just did mine this week. Really helps to have a ‘Caliper Piston Cube Wind Tool’ or something similar when you have to rewind the piston back in.

Rice is a cereal and therefore a valid breakfast food. Fry last night’s rice with some chopped veg and garlic salt for a nutritious and easy breakfast.

Keep us updated! Looks like I was on the right track, everyone else recommends the same.

Also, keep some screenshots and data you can assemble into a tutorial. You’ll likely end up using your own tutorial again at some point.

Interested to hear answers for this one… maybe MITM yourself and capture packets to see whats being sent?

It’s an amazingly good model of the way the world behaves.

You could turn Pacman into a linear game with branching and looping paths instead of a grid, and still be able to play. You’ve just removed the invalid options to turn left or right when up and down are the only option. But both are still not accurate models of the world as it is which is instructions running on a processor.

Definitely would like some more detail on this.

Firstly, I would just like to refute ‘If all knowledge is based on faith, then is science reliable?’ because I’ve seen it been made before to argue [random-bullshit-thing] is worth considering. Science isn’t based on knowledge, it’s based on experimental results, models, and extrapolation. Actual faith is not based on that.

There’s a really good argument to be made that our senses are not telling us the truth, they just tell us what is beneficial to survive and reproduce. However, this is not the case for instruments that measure, say, gravitational waves.

There is a real reality out there, and it’s unlikely we can perceive it. Perhaps the universe happened all at once, but our brain processing happens in consecutive slices of reality, so we perceive time.

Personally, my (pessimistic) gut feeling is that we don’t exist. How could anything? It’s that Prime Mover argument. Because the Big Bang, because multiverse bubbles colliding…

I think the universe might not actually exist, nothing does. But the potential possibilities make it exist relative to the baseline of nothing. Just like when you climb Everest, your total altitude change is 0 because coming down cancels out going up. The universe is just a potential that is cancelled out by something else, so existence remains at 0 in total.

No, but it’s more subtle than ‘free market.’ There should be some mandatory national holidays.

This gives employees the opportunity to exchange shifts and have time off during their non-Christmas cultural holidays.

This is the way. For people who really want to have other days off for their cultural holiday, they can swap shifts with other employees who will be happy to work those days.

This pre-supposes distinct ‘souls’. There is only one soul, one ‘awareness’. We are just fragments of that awareness.

THE awareness, the base Experencier of reality does experience the best life imaginable, and everything else.

Is the best life one without suffering, or one where suffering is experienced and then alleviated? That’s a better question.

That was yesterday in my timezone. Yes, I spent Christmas Day with family a significant drive away.

Almost none; gas stations, some restaurants and dairies. Most were closed.

Thankfully we had rain all day, a nice change back to traditional rainy and humid Christmas Days.

This is actually fucking scary.

They also took issue with him being brought back to life as he’d signed a ‘Do Not Resuscitate’ order years earlier, The Des Moines Register reported at the time.

This sets the precedent that the convict is no longer in possession of their own body and life.

“Death is no escape. You will suffer as long as we want you to.”

Welcome to the birth of Hell.

What castes are you in?

an active, intentionally orchestrated attempt by Trump and his supporters to violently overturn the results of our Presidential election was “basically the same thing lol” as a bunch of people who were protesting police violence and racism.

Yes, that’s exactly what I said. -_-

Exactly.

I get your /s but I don’t think anyone should be dying in a protest, regardless of how small that number is relatively speaking.
