I remember being probably about four years old, coming down the stairs, and my parents were so tall, they were taller than I was.

> Also worth nothing that agreeing to the telematics / monitoring is part of the purchase agreement.

But that won‘t apply to anyone buying used.

I got most of my karma through «clickbait» stuff. If you manage to post something like the Apple annual report, you can get a million free points basically. You just gotta be quick.

> Are General's and Judges

Last time I was in court in court the judge was wearing just a casual floral top, summer skirt and flats, it was a small civil case, and no one minded at all. It was still clear that she was in charge.

ahakki··on Are Mail-Order Meal Kits Doomed?
You really shouln't use the fixed width style for lists, it's basically only useful for code.

instead you can just make a list with normal paragraphs so that lines can wrap normally.

1. Item One Das Handelsgericht Zürich hat in einem Massnahmeverfahren der Raiffeisen Schweiz gegen Inside Paradeplatz und Lukas Hässig entschieden, dass der Artikel eines anonymen Autors vom 20. August 2018 zu löschen sei.

2. Item two Das Handelsgericht hat festgehalten, dass nicht klar sei, ob unter den gegebenen Umständen der Text wirklich wie behauptet von einem ehemaligen Kadermann der Bank stamme.

3. Item three Inside Paradeplatz und Lukas Hässig wie auch Raiffeisen Schweiz akzeptieren diesen Entscheid.

Depends if very first thing mentioned, a graphic video of a murder, is illegal in the relevant jurisdiction. The legal status of snuff films is pretty complicated.

Nevermind the fact that Apple's official $9 audio dongle also only has a barely acceptable DAC in it.

ahakki··on Germany’s soldiers of misfortune
Due to the extensive polymer use in it's construction the G36 is more sensitive to heat buildup than other assault rifles. Therefore it is very likely that the rifle did in fact perform underwhelmingly in hot areas at high rates of fire. Moreso than a metal construction rifle would. It's almost certain that the new rifle will be the HK433.

ahakki··on Spotify will now suspend or terminate accounts it finds are using ad blockers
I’m not sure it does, or if it does it doesn’t work very well. I have an apple music subscription. If I enable iCloud Music Library it only adds the songs to my other devices if they’re available on Apple Music.

There doesn’t seem to be a way for me to upload my own MP3s to the service like you can on Google Play Music.

Yes, I fully agree. The liberal arts are of utmost importantce to our culture and society as a whole. I cringe everytime I hear people say that access to these studies should be limited because they aren’t economicly viable.

We don’t just need resources to live, we also need a reason.

ahakki··on How A Young Woman Followed Two Hackers' Lies to Her Death
Yes I mixed up the 1968 Gun Control Act and it's associated amnesty with the 1986 Machine Gun Ban. I was just going off the top of my head.

ahakki··on How A Young Woman Followed Two Hackers' Lies to Her Death
It is actually possible to legally aquire a fully automatic machine gun without serial numbers. IIRC when the machine gun ban of 1986 was passed there was an amnesty period where anyone could register any firearm no questions asked, in hopes of getting everything registered. Some GIs who had stolen army equipment (mainly service rifles) registered that, but because they where scared of being cought they removed the serial numbers beforehand. These firearms are still legally transferable as Machine Guns registered before 1986.
