The area lies in the shadow of a volcano that created rich local soils but also may have led to the destruction of the society.

Oh I'm sure it was just a result of the city state finally pissing off it's client peoples enough to lose it's tributaries and getting wiped out by it's neighbors.

You don't put 100k people in one place by being nice.

Every single group you listed selfhosts and uses local data centers to reduce transit fees. It's very important because it's how you handle the costs on your business model. Ad revenue generally forces you to operate on tight operating margins. Compare that to another cloud hosting utilizing video provider that nearly sunk despite being quite popular: Vimeo. If you think this stuff is not important, see Twitch's exit from Korea over transit fees.

DA wanted to drop it.

In a lengthy statement outlining the case and prosecution timeline, Dennis Watkins, the Trumbull County prosecutor, said that his office had found that Ms. Watts had not violated the law as claimed in the initial compliant and that it disagreed with a lower court’s application of the law after interviewing witnesses “and researching and applying the law.”

Last month, Mr. Watkins said his office was “duty bound” to follow Ohio law and move forward with a grand jury proceeding after Judge Terry Ivanchak of Municipal Court found probable cause for the grand jury review to proceed.

One idiot judge. The prosecutor's office had no interest in pursuing this, but the fucking cops and one idiot judge is what caused this to move forward.

The hospital notified the Warren City Police Department about the miscarriage and “the need to locate the fetus,” according to a coroner’s report.

I don't really understand what the hospital was hot about. She had been there for premature rupture of membranes and they didn't want to do surgical intervention. Why they felt the need to call the cops because they wanted the fetus, even if she left AMA, is beyond me. If she wanted to go home because they wouldn't offer a d and c and wanted her to pass it naturally, then let her go home.

Edit: sounds like her nursing staff called the cops after she went AMA, which is incredibly fucking annoying to me, as a nurse. It's within a patients rights to decline our care, particularly when it's ineffectual. You warn her that she could hemmorage and let her go home.

I honestly hope she sues that fucking hospital.

They know it doesn't matter. A criminal contempt citation has to be taken up by the justice department and then tried before a judge.

That's not going to happen with this shit:

“You are the epitome of white privilege, coming into the Oversight Committee, spitting in our face, ignoring a congressional subpoena to be deposed,” Ms. Mace said to Mr. Biden as he sat in the audience. “What are you afraid of? You have no balls.”

Lol is this not the onion? That article is gold. 25 percent discount for showing your ID, business booming after the COs sent a memo with her info saying to stay away.

“I prefer them to be in their uniforms because I am actively a military fetishist,” Gilchrist added. “I love them in their uniform.”

No, the correct response would be "I didn't say you were a good joke"

You don't seem to be aware that you're responding to multiple people at this point, with some of us here to mock the entire comment chain and others who are straight up trolling you to get you to engage. I'm the former.
