Does it?

user A uses their full bandwidth from 2am-4am when the network is empty then watches a 720p video at 5pm (or whenever the networks peak is).

User B watches an 8k video at 5pm and nothing at any other time.

UserB clearly contributes to congestion on the network more than user A despite user A using more data. Furthermore throttling user A does less to resolve the congestion than throttling user B.

IMO If the network needs to throttle then the people the most data at that instant in time need to be throttled and the network needs to start upgrading its infrastructure or amending its marketing materials.

Really the current internet model is a little weird, it should be pay to use with on and off peak hours the same as other utilities, and throttling should be seen as a major failure that needs immediate attention.

Outer wilds felt really good to play, optimistic nihilism and a happy lonliness. One moment that really stood out to me was when I followed a certain object out of the solar system, spent pretty much 20minutes drifting in space listening to the other astronauts play together planets apart and watching the stars

It’s one of the most peaceful times I’ve had with a game, and playing it in the middle of covid I cried happy tears. Go in as blind as you can.

For the curious you’d make 970million in the 532years. Jeff bozos net worth is about 200 billion. You’d need an annual interest rate of about 2.12% to reach 200billion over that period, assuming you spend none of it, if you took an annual income of 20k then you’d only be at 135billion at the end of the period.

I checked their site, you can’t buy parking using just the website, even a monthly one. But you sure can pay your parking tickets! (although even that requires a credit card it seems)

This article is very repetitive, but they never mention what the activists allegedly tried to do. Without that information or any charges laid it’s pretty much useless information.

Im no fan of generative ai, but this argument drives me crazy, there are a lot of things that are easy to verify but hard to come up with, quite famously in fact.

Spotify is trying this with their audiobook subscription service.

Return of the obra dinn

I feel like it’s a game to be played in one long go, so I’m waiting for the right time.

People say sarcasm doesn’t translate on the internet, but hyperbole is definitely a close second.

Health Canada guidance is a bit more nuanced

Post-exposure prophylaxis or testing of a bat is generally recommended after direct contact with the bat (refer to Bat Exposure) because it is very difficult to ensure that a bite did not take place

Bat exposure: Post-exposure rabies prophylaxis following bat contact is recommended when both of the following conditions apply:

• There has been direct contact with a bat, AND
• A bite, scratch, or saliva exposure into a wound or mucous membrane cannot be ruled out.

Direct contact with a bat is defined as a bat touching or landing on a person.

In a child, a bat landing on clothing could be considered a reason for intervention, as a history to rule out a bite, scratch or mucous membrane exposure may not be reliable.

From 1998 to 2009, NACI recommended that people who may not be aware of or able to report a bat bite (e.g., sleeping person, young child, cognitively impaired) be offered intervention if a bat was found in the room with them. This recommendation was revised (as described above) in 2009 based on the rarity of human rabies related to bats (one case in Canada reported approximately every 5 years). Analysis conducted in Canada estimated that a case of human rabies related to bedroom exposure to a bat (i.e., finding a bat in the room of a sleeping person with no recognized physical contact with the bat) is expected to occur in Canada once every 84 years. In addition, it has been determined that, to prevent one case of rabies from bedroom exposure to a bat, using a conservative estimate, 314,000 people would need to be treated.

anticigarette! They hate smoking

This happens a lot more than the cops would have you believe, but a stopped cop isn’t able to catch up usually.

I know someone who did toronto to ottawa (~450km) in 2.5 hrs multiple times on a motorbike, although that was over a decade ago.

This is of course incredibly dangerous and I do not endorse this behaviour.

Weed is cheap, less addictive (physically at least) and a lot easier to grow yourself. While they’ll move over when the writing is on the wall I think they’d rather stick with child friendly bubblegum flavored tobacco vapes.

Yeah I think some of the older rainbow six’s as well if memory serves.

I hate that mechanic, if they are going to go that “realistic” route then let you keep the half filled magazine

Wow I knew all this happened, but I didn’t realize it happened in 2005, I thought it was much older. What a hero!

It’s just a tiny blip, look at the 1Y or even 1M views.

You’d think a real estate mogul of all things would understand the value of land even with damaged property. Almost like he’s sympathetic to Russia or something.

If it’s not from the fantasy region of middle earth then it’s just sparkling fiction.

is it a personnel shortage or a people willing to die for trump shortage?
