Also in the game, literally a third of the NPCs aren't white or British. Half of the student companion quests are about students who aren't white. They talk about other countries and the other schools all the time in side dialog. Four of your teachers aren't even from Britain in the game. I really feel like they tried to distance it as much as possible from JK's harry potter and I honestly kinda liked it. But I do still understand that a small portion of what I paid for the game went to Rowling and I do feel a little bad about it. But most of it went to the studio that made it, some went to Steam.

It depends on the form of employee ownership as to whether it works out for the employees. In trucking, the industry uses the owner-operator model as a way to push costs onto employees and skirt labor laws. On paper, the truckers are their own bosses. In reality, they are effectively employees of logistics companies where the logistics companies can pay their employees less than minimum wage and push maintenance costs onto their employees. In this case, ownership is used as a tool of oppression.

Buddy, this is fascism. Political suicide isn't a thing anymore.

Same, asked my mom if Freddy Krueger was real and she said " I guess he is..." She had no idea who that was and I lost my sleep for who knows how long

Stuff like Tycho - Dive for when I really need to focus. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BGXOYfZMR0w

Is XDNA actually an FPGA? My understanding was that it's an ASIC implementation of the Xilinx NPU IP. You can't arbitrarily modify it.

Good point; The message may be undercut by the grammar. Effect is a noun/adjective. Affect is a verb/adverb. Disregard if you were actually trying to state that the concept of the number zero goes out and affects people in some unspecified way whenever that statement is spoken.

Well, when I tried the one directly from the repository, my version of Android would not boot, but then I downloaded the one directly from Google and did the same commands. And it booted. So yeah, either it was a bug or something.

Yikes. Thanks for the info.

Even an extra million split between the greens, libertarians, socialist workers, etc isn't significant compared to the 70+million that the Democrats and Republicans get.

Doodle is a bit more artistic, while jiffie is a bit more poetic. I haven’t found any practical differences in deployment.

Steam says the same thing and everyone jerks them.

That user is saying it in a more conspiracy sounding way, but isn't factually wrong as long as you replace "given" with "sold". The publicly built and operated Internet infrastructure was cut up and sold off in 94 by Clinton to telephone companies at very friendly rates. Governments send money to their fellow top people, by accident if not design.

That's really cool to me. Your being a story teller, writing a series. Add in the player spontaneous and that's got to be pretty fun, I imagine

Guess on my end. But one of his hands might have uh. Come off and not burned?

The other two monkes?

If you want to enter a house, do you use the door or the brick wall? In this scenario, the republicans are the brick wall and the democrats are the door. In theory, the door is more willing to allow entrance. How you're framing this is that using the door is an attack on the door. This is the same attitude conservatives use when people critique the US where they'll respond with "America: love it or leave it". As for punishing minorities, I'd take democrats more seriously about their claims of standing up for minorities if they weren't so quick to ignore them or throw them under the bus. It was Palestinians and others in Arab communities who were driving the uncommitted movement. It was a movement that simply asked that people mark uncommitted during the primaries where Biden was running practically unopposed. This is the lightest of resistance ever, did not threaten the presidential election, and clearly delivered the message that people were displeased with Biden. What did democrats do in response? Screamed at the minorities and preemptively blamed them for sowing division and continued pushing Biden until his debate performance made it apparent to even party diehards that Biden was not going to win. However, the party diehards still wanted to continue his policies, so they saddled Harris with the burden of continuing his garbage policies. Democrats simply did not listen to voter concerns during the election. You're saying that Palestinians are "now" being punished, but this only shows your ignorance of over a year of intensified genocide and the decades-long campaign of ethnic cleansing Palestinians have had to endure with the support of both US parties. It's less that Palestinians are "now" being punished and more like democrats are blaming everyone but themselves like they always do, even though they had the power to make a difference. Curiously, they did not use that power. I would be interested in your explanation for why democrats chose not to.

How would they learn that the newly installed system is more efficient than predicted before now?
