Look, I don’t get this need to cite exceptions to make oneself right. I can’t engage in pedantry or add endless footnotes to a general concept of what constitutes thievery or what every individual’s plan is for whatever they steal. It’s ridiculous to waste that time. You can steal a steak and sell it. You can steal a TV and watch it.

The spirit of the discussion is the direct intent of theft is either for an immediate need of a basic necessity of food, or the non-necessity of a luxury like a tv. Leave it at that concept.

As some have already mentioned - coriolis forces. But why not build bigger so coriolis forces aren’t an issue? Because spinning up anything of sufficient diameter to even come close to 1G would need some kind of unobtainium to be strong enough to keep the spinning object intact. Say 5 tons of mass at 0 G is just mass, but now accelerate it and you need to figure out how to support 5 tons.

1 rpm for 1 G is going to need almost 1km radius. 2 rpm is ~400m.

You can see that the numbers, size, and engineering get pretty ridiculous to keep people from being sick when spun.

The distinction you’re trying to make is stealing luxuries vs stealing necessities. Sure, we could argue basically “fuck megacorps” and that’s debatable to steal whatever, but this is about us.

If someone’s stealing the basic necessities like food, nobody saw shit.

If you’re stealing a TV, that just makes you a thief.

I tried this. The hotels attached the room and date on the lost item, so unless you’ve got those they aren’t going to give you anything if you can’t match them. Maybe some others don’t, so worth a try anyway?

I don’t think 2 x a week is a good workout. I seem to recall reading somewhere that strenuous 2 x week workouts can be stressful on the body vs how much benefit it offers. Note: twice weekly modest workouts are very helpful.

Try reducing the length of the run and/or substituting fast walk warmup and cooldowns, and adding a gym or some other workout to bring it up to 3x workouts in a week.

It‘s like photoshop pre-subscription. Just the menus and keyboard shortcuts are a little different. It‘s all I‘ve used for years now, I wouldn‘t know what to do with any other program.

• 7zip
• Firefox
• LibreOffice
• Various Linux distros, but mostly Ubuntu variants and Raspbian
• Cura
• OpenVPN
• Blender
• Gimp
• Windows - sorry everyone, it just works, but I stopped at 10.
• VLC
• Virtual Clone Drive

That’s true for any decent workout, not running in particular. You can’t be “careful not to trigger it” because your body decides whether or not it happens. You can get it on your 10th workout or your first.

Probably tells the brutally unvarnished truth about trump, AI, and climate change.

Can’t have that. Let’s call it “too powerful” until we can muzzle it.

It was good. I find the play pretty dry, but it was worth it for the solo performance experience.

Eddie/Suzy Izzard conducting a solo performance of the entire play of Hamlet.

No.

TV in a bedroom is just a bad idea for overall health.

Oh good, now you can watch ads on your giant tv when your console or PC game ends because the TV will know.

Next: subscription access to play games on said Big TV.

Destroys them all because unprofitable to sell, whines about major loss, demands government bailout.

Got to agree with this. We’ve got the evil leaders, and then what about those immediately second to them supporting and enabling all those orders that wind up in mass death and harm?

I don’t think it’s possible to say it’s one person, there’s a huge support structure that makes their version of evil happen.

Can’t sue AI for malpractice.

All that venture capital. Gone into rich people’s pockets.

There have been many since I started paying attention. Books, movies, whatever. Some were just well placed for the moment in the story and temporary, some were better philosophically absorbed. Wish I could pick something specific, but none come to mind. My favorites revolve around succinct and illuminating commentary on or demonstration of human nature and personal understanding. Bad or good.

I should start saving some of these in notes. Doesn’t do me much good not remembering.

It’s both, though the dryer does it worse overall. The abrasion from washing machines as the agitator does its thing can rub and damage some clothes with the applied designs. That’s why inside-out is better for those clothes.

The heating from the dryer will accelerate cracking no matter what, so taking anything out with a design you wish to preserve and air drying it is a better choice.
