“Sentencing decisions are made by independent judges in line with sentencing guidelines,” said a spokesperson. “We are clear that punishments must fit the severity of the crime, and custody should always be considered for serious offences. This government is determined to do all we can to make sure victims have confidence they will get justice.”

£26 fines

I see England has a very distorted view of how severe rape is. Clearly the teenagers 'didn't know what they were doing' and 'should be given another chance'.

Rape in England has been a major pain point for awhile now. The politicians setting the laws there seem to just not give a fuck.

Does your PC have DDR5? Do you get a black screen and spinning fans when you power it on? If so, let it sit powered on the black screen for literally 30+ min. It may be memory training and they, for some absurd reason, give zero indication they are doing so.

they always say they aren’t white

In many lefty circles, White people are seen as lesser/placed lower. (And even formalized at many companies for hiring purposes.) So, instead many will say they are _3% Indian, referencing a blood test that (very likely) said so. Now they are a minority and not White.

so of course they are going to start charging for it

It's a giant fuck you to Linux users as AMD only charges Linux users; AMD doesn't charge Windows users for the entry-level tier.

Apparently I'm the Luddite here for sticking with the light switch on the wall that has always just worked. ;p

That isn’t surprising. ETFs are the go-to way to easily diversify. They can be market-wide or catered very specifically.

If one suspects there is a better answer to 'the question behind the question':

answer the actual question that was asked, then
ask the question behind the question and answer that too.

Infuriating when people only do the latter. Particularly when I come by a question that is my EXACT problem, and none of the answers even attempt to answer the question that was asked.

'Ride share' is a legal gimmick, not something substantive.

‘point of no return’

Prices return once supply is returned.

The Guardian is being very dramatic here.

Wealthy folks (in general) are heavily involved in property and consequently pay considerable property taxes. This is something everyone is quite equal on.

It is taxed as the post describes due to being a limited resource, unlike financial instruments, which are not a limited resource.

That type of shit is exactly why my only interactions with Windows now is via work. A place I am pushing for more Linux in and have made some solid headway on. Just things like basic file operations are faster. A benefit I would have never known about had it not been for the constant, abusive nagging Windows does.

I had just assumed things like emptying your recycle bin of 50,000 log files is slow...no, only on Windows.

Financial software is the last place I want fuzzy AI math. That shit needs to be rock-solid. Not that I use Intuit stuff anyway (Free Tax USA is my go-to), but damn must that be a scary sentence for people who use Intuit products (QuickBooks, TurboTax, Credit Karma).

That said, I think they are doing it mostly as a way to spin layoffs as a good thing, not something driven by poor financials (which is more likely).

'Layoffs to focus on AI' at this point seems to be the in-vogue way to distract investors from the poor financials that are driving the layoffs.

Whatever % of the general budget goes toward roads. Money is fungible, this has the same answer as: What portion of sales tax pays for roads, what portion of income tax pays for roads, what portion of land tax pays for roads?

The important part here is that you do pay taxes when you charge your EV. We don't need to double tax EVs.

Iran mass-murdered the last protestors. They are scared the Iranian government is strong enough to do it again.

The suit says after the rollout, DoorDash delivery drivers were able to see when pizzas would come out of the oven. They would wait up to 15 minutes for multiple orders to be ready before grabbing them, slowing down delivery, according to the lawsuit.

Was it the AI system or the DoorDash integration that caused the issues?

EVs already pay electricity tax when they charge. We don’t need to double tax EV ownership.

And this is on top of the fact you pay an electric tax when you charge.

EVs in Washington are already double taxed!
