First off, I am against the death penalty. I suppose there are hypothetical scenarios were there may be some remorseless person who committed horrific crimes and for whom there is absolutely no doubt of guilt, and maybe then we can justify removing them from the world permanently. But in the real world, the death penalty is not limited to such scenarios. Innocents have been and continue to be executed. This is unacceptable.

But, if we aren't going to eliminate it, at the very least we can avoid unneeded suffering during it. As I understand it, nitrogen asphyxiation is a comparatively peaceful way to go. So this headline smells of bullshit to me.

Yep. Add in shipping to the US, and it's still less than $40.

PineTime.

It doesn't do very much, but the things it doesn't do aren't things I'm all that interested in anyway. What it does do, it's kinda hit and miss. But it is cheap as hell for a smartwatch and fully open source, so were I more inclined to code I could potentially improve some of the ways it does things.

Well you try buying groceries somewhere that doesn't completely suck for one reason or another.

At least at Publix I can get groceries and a tasty sandwich without hating the whole experience, so long as I simply don't remember that a small portion of my money ends up going to shit like this.

Edit: I don't have a Costco nearby

... Yes.

Well as far as adblocking goes, mobile FireFox already supports uBlock Origin.

My philosophy on it, specifically for this game, is that the game is so damn huge to start with it's impossible to see and experience all the content in one or even several playthroughs. I'd rather just put my completionist impulses aside, think of the game more as "D&D" than a video game, and just go forward, no matter what happens in game.

But that's just my thought for this specific game. As has been stated several times - it's your save file, do what you want with it. No wrong way to play.

Now I'm wondering if they trained the AI on the exact same machine that they used in their testing. Seems to me that tiny variances in the keyboards of even the exact same model could have significant effects on this sort of thing. And then there's different levels of wear from usage, crumbs in the keyboard, etc.

I'd be amazed if it is actually this accurate across all machines of the same model.

For what she did on the floor of Congress, yes.

But she also emailed it out to her supporters. That ain't "speech or debate in either House"

But you wouldn't just double it for each state. You'd increase the total number of House seats, and then portion them out according to the populations of each state. That's how it was always done before they capped the size of the House.

Currently, Wyoming has just one House seat. If you double the number of total House seats, Wyoming still only gets one. They currently have a larger impact on Presidential elections than they should if it were decided strictly by population, and that's due entirely to the Electoral College and the cap on the size of the House.

If I had listed possible events in order of likelihood, "a new game taking direct inspiration from Wand of Gamelon" would have been just after "aliens demand humanity's belly button lint".

Nice. I use an AutoHotKey script that presses Shift if idle time hits one minute.

Have never had anyone actually comment on idle time; it was a preemptive measure.
