I think it’s generally a culture thing; you don’t eat your beasts of burden (oxen, horses, etc) and you don’t eat your animaux de compagnie. Not just because they’re useful and you would more than likely have a connection to them, but generally speaking, these are very lean animals, barely any fat on them, plus the fact that unless you know what you’re doing and make the slaughtering of your animal quick and painless, endocrines get released into the muscle tissue, making the meat bitter.

Every time a swear word is censored on the internet, a cat video gets a million views, or something like that.

Denial of service I guess? Either that or having to submit a very specific set of documents or forms to let someone somewhere know why you need just one more after already having seven at that point (First one being the one your parents are given at the time of your birth, followed by the 6 reprints they allow)

Not having Jury Duty is like, the least important thing when it comes to voting. Usually they pay you for your time, and hell, sometimes you show up and they either strike you from the pool or don’t have cases left for the day, and send you home soon after you arrive. I had jury duty earlier this year, got taken out of the jury pool, and I still got paid for my time.

A better way to put it would to say quarter ton, since that’s what it really is

It’s because language changes gradually over time. Most people who aren’t English Majors or have a Linguistics degree don’t even know what a Thorn is, and I don’t even blame them. (Also the fact that no Middle English characters are on my keyboard, closest I have to a dead symbol is ‽)

Not a lawyer, but hypothetically yes? I think it’s the same situation with Pantone colors being only legally viewable on Adobe software or whatever. (Will double check on the validity of that though)

Not to mention that they also incentivise players to spend real-world money by having their website have a secret club for whales (I think you need to spend either $1K or $5K in order to have the button appear) to spend even more money then they did to even gain access originally.

Edit: clarity and conciseness: added “originally” to the end of the last sentence.

I mean, you can vote and still get paid; I don’t live in a swing state but I got a whopping $0.17 for my efforts! It’s moreso about getting a voting plan together.

It does look surprisingly like that, hit it’s just Amrs unfortunately. His shirt specifically says “Occupy Mars” as if that’s a good thing.

It was a dud; normally when bombs get dropped and don’t explode, they’re considered to be a potential hazard at any time, but most people think that these duds are so old they can’t possibly be able to explode anymore.

It’s in the body of the post; the company is called Impact Plastics.

The downvotes are probably because there’s no context, and the prescribed context from the article makes it seem like you don’t like the gays™

They don’t really though. I haven’t been on GoG in a minute, but when I was looking for an offline installer (I think for Cyberpunk?), it was very easy to find it

I don’t like how I didn’t catch this was satire until the third bullet point

Not to burst your bubble, but they’ve done it before.

Remember the CRAAP test, everyone:

Currency (Is this information current? If not when was it updated?)

Relevance (Does it make sense to the topic you’re working on? Does it not?)

Authority (Who wrote this article? What are their qualifications?)

Accuracy (Is this information accurate? Can you cross-reference with other articles or papers?)

Purpose (What was the author’s purpose in writing this? Were they paid to write this piece?)

(Edit: formatting)

Well, it’s supposed to taste like instant coffee as found in WW2 rations for Americans, hence the term.

It’s actually a bit hit or miss, at least on Prime Video. Most episodes still have the Massive Attack Theme, but a few here and there (Mostly in S2 iirc) have the generic theme.

At the top it says “Online political debate worksheet”, so I assume a high school or college level class.
