For years I thought Mickey Rooney (1920-2014) and Mickey Rourke (1952-present) were the same guy. I'd see Mickey Rooney in a movie and be like "Wow, he's looking pretty good for his age," thinking he was a man 32 years his senior and/or dead.
I finally twigged when I eventually saw Iron Man 2 (2009) and was like "How is he doing this?!" and actually looked him up.
Despite being told regularly not to tease the animals, it is believed that Hannah taunted the tiger, which lunged at her, pulled its fixing from the wall and "tore her to pieces".
I gotta squint at this last part. Did this explanation come from management? "No, you don't understand, it was really the woman's fault that the caged wild animal we kept in a pub attacked. We're actually good and normal for doing this."
Something very sketch is definitely going on. I'm not sure how much of the episode to believe really happened. Agatha's comportment completely shifting and her sudden awareness of who Teen is, the casual way Lilia responded to Alice's death and Teen's outburst, nobody was behaving in-character for the last scene. Maybe we just saw the beginning of a trial for Teen?
They're laughing with me, Michael!
It's real in the sense that the established policy is to retire ccTLDs within five years of a country code ceasing to exist. But there are multiple provisos there:
.io ccTLD), for a variety of historical and administrative reasons.cloud, .gay, .info, .tech)Obviously it's worth keeping an eye on what IANA does with this situation, but personally I suspect one or the other of the above will happen. It's probably in the interests of Mauritius to retain the domain as a source of income, but if they don't then somebody else will likely want to take ownership, and there's plenty of moneyed interests in retaining .io since a number of large business customers (the largest likely being Alphabet/Google) are already using it.
Yeah, this is pretty standard. Between the low production numbers and the fact that assembly is probably occurring in a country with stronger labor laws than wherever mass-producted hardware is made (mostly China), it's going to cost more than something you can pick up on Amazon or AliExpress.
There have been a few cases where open-source hardware like this has enough demand to get picked up by a Chinese manufacturer who makes a cheaper version through some combo of unethical labor practices, production scale, employing cheaper or cloned parts and/or dropping features, so it's not out of the question that a cheaper version comes along, as long as you don't mind the compromises to get it.
US$249.99 ready-built, for anybody curious. Not saying it's not worth that, but that will price a lot of people out of it.
This makes me wonder if there are any exceptions, things that brains didn't name. Onomatopoeia seem like a good starting place (and maybe ending place). Did we name cats' meows meows or just hear them and go "OK, that's what that is then"? Cat brains didn't name them that either, they weren't thinking what they should call the sound they make, they just made it.
As far as things which name themselves, I can't think of anything else but sounds.
Do you have any insight into why it's so much more memory-hungry than the docs indicate? Is that a problem on its own, or just normal and accepted behavior for Mbin?
Wow, that's a broad ban. Most of England is outside schools and hospitals.
On first reading I breezed right past that, going "Sure, they're telling me the weights of the bears."
I do wonder whether the algorithm understands sarcasm. A while back, I watched a video about some movie bombing, something objectively bad like Morbius, and they joked that the movie wasn't actually failing for all of the obvious reasons, but because it was "too woke". They didn't really believe that, they were just making fun of people who say that about movies. Still, for the next couple of weeks I had to keep marking channels as "Don't recommend" because they were all unironic right-wing rage-bait about the woke agenda. I don't know for certain that that's why I suddenly got all those recommendations, but that was my best guess.
