He was sentenced. The sentence was effectively a judicial shrug.

Well as of tomorrow, weather modification will be illegal in the state of Florida. As such, Democrats will be powerless to help in the state most likely to see a hurricane.

From the perspective of the consciousness of the patient, it would be a change of the body, not the mind.

OTOH, “laced with” sounds like it’s not containerized separately, but rather mixed in with the bulk of the flour. I don’t see the point of smuggling it that way if you can’t separate it out easily later. My instinct is that this is an intentional attempt to poison.

Edit: read the linked article, that seems to be exactly what this is.

Many summoning circles require a sacrifice, and this one is no different. This one requires a sacrifice of AC to summon DC.

So comply… maliciously.

Even when the pedestrian has an active do-not-cross signal?

This morning some pedestrian stared me down as he started crossing in front of me at a leisurely pace while I approached going 45 mph with a green light. Not a single fuck given.

I don’t want to alarm you, but we’re now 22 years past your graduation. “Almost ten years” and then some.

I was interrupted before I submitted this comment, and I see you’ve gotten some replies since I wrote the draft, but my comment goes a little deeper, so I figured I’d still add on.

FALD and mini LED are similar in function, but mini LED has a couple advantages. Since the actual LEDs are smaller, you can place a larger quantity of them behind the LCD panel than traditional LEDs. This allows for more dimming zones to reduce the halo effect, and also enables higher peak brightness which means better contrast.

IPS and VA refer not to the backlight system, but to the actual liquid crystal display panel that sits in front of the backlight. The LCD itself is like an array of microscopic window shutters that can turn clear or black. By placing this LCD behind a color filter layer, the LCD can control light passing through each subpixel (red, green, blue) of the filter layer to produce the appropriate color for each pixel. Each panel type (IPS, VA, TN, etc ) has its own set of advantages and disadvantages when it comes to cost, response time, image ghosting, viewing angle, color accuracy, contrast, etc. Each of those panel types could be paired with an edge-lit backlight, FALD backlight, or mini LED backlight.

OLED is a completely separate technology altogether. Instead of putting an LCD filter layer in front of a backlight, OLED puts individual white LEDs behind each red, green, and blue subpixel of the color filter layer. That means instead of a liquid crystal layer blocking out backlight (which is imperfect and still bleeds light, hence the FALD halo effect), an OLED simply does not emit light for that pixel/subpixel, allowing perfect blacks and better color accuracy.

QLED and QD-OLED trade the white LED backlights and white OLED panels for blue light and discard the traditional color filter layer, replacing it with a sheet of quantum dots that use some kind of black magic optical fuckery to change blue light into red and green as well.

For those who don’t know, Qantas once repaired a damaged aircraft that would’ve otherwise been a write-off for the sake of maintaining their perfect no hull-loss record.

We’ve known this for so long, how is it so difficult to just set a maximum height commuter vehicles?

Because the United States EPA designed fuel efficiency regulations in a fucked-up way that incentivizes manufacturers to produce larger and larger trucks.

You left out an ‘N.’ I’m gonna have to escort you out of the comment section.

But we did recently invent a new color, or at least a new way to perceive color.
