I like the idea of a system add-on that randomizes all user age responses with a different date that equals like 25-99years old (assuming 25 years meets the highest age for the applicable standards).
Not too dissimilar from a random MAC address generating feature.
They aren't a public service, their goal is maximizing profits, the devices they manufacturer and the customer base they farm are just tools to that end.
Fairphone, on the other hand, is a Benefit corp, if I remember correctly.
While I oppose ICE, this is stupid.
The person chose to put themselves in front of a vehicle in motion which appeared to be moving to ensure it's occupants could escape an area where a clear threat to them was present. I don't care if the occupants were teens, drunk uncles, my grandma, or ICE. Fuck that idiot for getting on the hood or moving intentionally in front of that vehicle!
The vehicle occupants don't appear to have targeted anyone, so they get a pass. At least from what is shown in the video.
It's possible they had other exit opportunities that didn't put the peds in harms way, and chose to drive through them on purpose, and lf so that changes things, but that's not shown in the video.
Sounds like their plot was not very serious. And joking about killing people is totally legal in most places. I would however understand a temporary suspension or even an arrest during an investigation. And I'd approve of politely discouraging joking about such things as a social rule, as it's unkind. But here, it doesn't appear criminal charges for making any serious threat or plans are likely to be found valid.

Well, upon further research it seems the one girl it likely in need of serious mental health help. She seems off her rocker, and may have actually just hurt people for kicks if not stopped in advance. The other girl seems likely to not understand the seriousness of the danger the crazy girl presents. Crazy people often seduce other people into their crazy worlds and plots.
But, despite these new considerations, criminal charges and jail/prison won't solve the issues either of these kids have. And our society will literally continue paying a very high price to persecute and imprison them instead of actually solving the problems that got them where they are.
So, fuck us I suppose.
We built this.
This is what we get.
Well, if that isn't just the cutest Klingon ratfink crossover I didn't know I needed today.
Didn't that guy get shot in the face?
There are a lot of cultures where seating in public is ad hoc, you just sit wherever, you generally don't claim a table or area to yourself. In those situations greetings and socialization are pretty normal.
I remember going out to eat fast food with a girl and her kid a decade ago and some homeless guy asked if he could sit with us. I said sure, and he was a nice maybe 50 year old guy. He had clearly been around kids and enjoyed the normalcy of just hanging out with the three of us for 30min. The kid didn't mind, but the girl I was dating thought it really weird.
Though these new phones and most Samsung devices generally have high quality, durable, and reliable hardware, the devs are making pretty crappy choices about software changes and some hardware choices are just disappointing... This screen, the camera bumps, the old and outdated battery tech.
Samy is falling behind and mucking things up. They're only likely to stay relevant because of their long standing history.
I mean, I wanna like their tech, but mostly I don't right now, even though I used to love it.... I can see business pros continuing to use their devices, but I don't want an iPhone clone personally.
She's the ships counselor, who at any moment may need to have deeply personal and unofficial private conversations with anyone in need. Those discussions are officially informal. Thus she maintains a casual professional appearance.
It's not jazzersize, it's public lounge wear, she is at ease to help aid her clients ability to transition to an at ease state.
While doing official duty on the bridge it is appropriate for her to dress in uniform, but those duties tended to be momentary, not planned, so a wardrobe change would've been an odd choice.
She may have actually qualified as obese at times, as there's an actual medical classification.
I don't think that's likely to be the case in that second photo you shared, she does have a heavy build in general, but there have been times since being on ST when she likely did qualify.
IIRC, obese is anything over a specific rage of BMI or BFP, whichever you use. So if a healthy BMI for you is 18-25 and you are 30 then you are obese.
I'm not a pro, so I'm not sure about the hard details, but the point I'm making is that obese isn't a personal opinion of looks too fat. A person doesn't necessarily even need to look it, but they could still qualify.
My SO looks fine at 30, but not much above that. I think they're sitting at 28 currently.
10/10.... I passed over some bad reviews, but ignored them. Sam tends to do some pretty fun and kookie flicks, especially sci-fi, which is totally my bag.
This movie was a really fun ride!
